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

Recent trends have exacerbated existing problems accessing mental health care for military service members. To address these problems, lawmakers and military leaders have been busy introducing new legislation and changing policies in order to improve access. While these initiatives are critical for long-term change, military service members need solutions that can help them now. Although it may not be a panacea, intensive outpatient treatments may be part of the solution for the MHS, especially when considering posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This commentary begins by describing the history of intensive treatments in the military health system, which has been largely offered as intensive outpatient treatments (IOPs). Next, it describes a decade of research on intensive treatments for PTSD, which has included a diverse array of IOP formats as well as stand-alone, massed treatments. Lastly, this commentary recommends that lawmakers and military leaders expand their notion of intensive outpatient treatments to include both programs and stand-alone, massed treatments. By doing so, the MHS could have more options for service members and commands as they search for workable treatment options.
