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.

Abstract

Prior research has linked parental factors such as parent psychopathology, family functioning, parenting style, and parental practices to child anxiety and depression. Parents are often involved in interventions for these disorders. However, previous research suggests that this does not always add to the effect of child treatment alone. Furthermore, little research report changes in known parental risk and protective factors. As part of the ECHO-trial, we examined two delivery formats of parental involvement in the Emotion intervention, an indicated school-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) program to prevent child anxiety and depression. Parents received either five parent group sessions or a brochure, while their children attended group sessions. Parents (N = 1028) completed our online survey at baseline, post-intervention, and/or 12-month follow-up. On average, parents showed small improvements in anxiety and depression symptoms and parental practices over time. There was no difference in parental factors between parents in the group sessions and the brochure condition.The trial was preregistered at https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ (NCT04263558), in February 2020.
