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
Various organizations have provided treatment guidelines intended to aid therapists in deciding how to treat posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Yet evidence-based psychotherapies (EBPs) for PTSD in the community may be difficult to obtain. Although strides have been made to implement EBPs for PTSD in institutional settings such as the United States Veterans Affairs, community uptake remains low. Factors surrounding clients' decisions to enroll in EBPs have been identified in some settings; however less is known regarding trained therapists' decisions related to offering trauma-focused therapies or alternative treatment options. Thus, the aim of the current study was to examine therapist motivations to initiate CPT in community settings. The present study utilizes data from a larger investigation aiming to support the sustained implementation of Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) in community mental health treatment settings. Enrolled therapists participated in phone interviews discussing their opinions of CPT, preferred treatments for PTSD, and process in assessing appropriate PTSD treatments for clients. Semi-structured interviews (N = 29) were transcribed and analyzed using a directed content analysis approach. Several themes emerged regarding therapists' decision-making in selecting PTSD treatments. Therapist motivations to use EBPs for PTSD, primarily CPT, were identified at the client (e.g., perceived compatibility with client-level characteristics), therapist (e.g., time limitations), and clinic levels (e.g., leadership support). The results provide insight into the complex array of factors that affect sustainability of EBPs for PTSD in community settings and inform future dissemination of EBPs, including training efforts in community settings.
