Evaluating the combined effects of mobile computerized CBT and post-learning oscillatory modulation on self-esteem: a randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Self-esteem, crucial for psychological well-being, can be enhanced through targeted interventions like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). However, traditional CBT faces various accessibility barriers. Digital health interventions such as computerized CBT and mobile health (mHealth) applications offer potential solutions. Recent research suggests that brain oscillations, particularly theta rhythms, play a key role in memory consolidation. Combining computerized CBT with post-learning theta rhythm modulation may optimize and stabilize improvements in self-esteem and promote neuro-wellbeing. This six-month longitudinal study aimed to evaluate the synergistic effects of a computerized CBT intervention (GGSE) combined with post-training theta rhythm brain modulation on improving self-esteem in young adults with low self-esteem. Participants were randomly allocated to three groups: GGSE + theta audio-visual entrainment (AVE) with Cranio-Electro Stimulation (CES), GGSE + beta AVE + CES (active control), and GGSE only (control). The intervention lasted three weeks. Assessments of self-esteem, maladaptive beliefs, and mood were conducted at baseline, 21 days, 42 days, and six months post-baseline. Although post-treatment oscillatory entrainment did not enhance the long-term efficacy of the intervention, significant treatment effects persisted for six months across all groups. These results support the potential long-term efficacy of brief, game-like, digital CBT approaches for improving self-esteem.
