1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Irving Kirsch's work spans over four decades and provided science and clinical practice with as much invaluable insights in the inner workings of treatments as it provided us and patients with their rights and our duties. Here, two early publications of Irving Kirsch on the topic of psychotherapy and its relation to placebo are revised and put into both a historical and contemporary context to pay tribute to the work of Irving Kirsch.
