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

Background: Previous research has indicated cognitive impairments in patients with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), specifically in attention, memory, and executive functioning. However, there is limited knowledge about the cognitive profile of individuals with complex PTSD (cPTSD), a new diagnosis in ICD-11. Moreover, predictors of cognitive impairment remain unclear. The present study aims to enhance understanding of cognitive functioning and its predictors in cPTSD compared with non-complex PTSD (ncPTSD). Methods: Results: Both groups showed cognitive impairments in comparison to the COGBAT norm group. Significant differences between cPTSD and ncPTSD were found in visual memory ( Conclusions: Given higher symptom severity and cognitive deficits in cPTSD, more intensive and diverse interventions should be considered in comprehensive treatment plans, for instance, cognitive training.
