An Open Trial of Telephone-Delivered Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy: Feasibility, Acceptability, and Preliminary Efficacy for Reducing Depressive Symptoms.
Article in Cognitive and behavioral practice, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) is a promising intervention for reducing depressive symptoms in individuals with comorbid chronic disease, but the program's attendance demands make it inaccessible to many who might benefit. We tested the feasibility, acceptability, safety, and preliminary efficacy of an abbreviated, telephone-delivered adaptation of the in-person mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT-T) program in a sample of patients with depressive symptoms and hypertension. Participants (n = 14; 78.6% female, mean age = 60.6) with mild to moderate depressive symptoms and hypertension participated in the 8-week MBCT-T program. Feasibility was indexed via session attendance and home-based practice completion. Acceptability was indexed via self-reported satisfaction scores. Safety was assessed via reports of symptomatic decline or need for additional mental health treatment. Depressive symptoms (Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology-Self-Report [QIDS-SR]) and anxiety (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-Anxiety subscale; HADS-A) were assessed at baseline and immediately following the intervention. Sixty-four percent of participants (n = 9) attended ≥4 intervention sessions. Seventy-one percent (n = 6) of participants reported completing all assigned formal home practice and 89.2% (n = 8) reported completing all assigned informal practice. Participants were either very satisfied (75%; n = 6) or mostly satisfied (25%; n = 2) with the intervention. There were no adverse events or additional need for mental health treatment. Depressive symptom scores were 4.09 points lower postintervention (p = .004). Anxiety scores were 3.18 points lower postintervention (p = .039). Results support the feasibility, acceptability, safety, and preliminary efficacy of an abbreviated, telephone-delivered version of MBCT for reducing depressive and anxiety symptoms in individuals with co-occurring chronic disease.
