A service evaluation of PTSD Resolution therapy for military veterans.
Article in Occupational medicine (Oxford, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPost-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) Resolution is a UK-based charity that provides treatment for military veterans, reservists and their families. However, there is little contemporary evaluation of their clinical outcomes to inform commissioners or potential service users.
aimsTo establish whether treatment by PTSD Resolution therapists resulted in positive outcomes at the end of therapy and follow-up; to establish risk and resilience factors associated with positive treatment outcomes; and to the extent possible, compare PTSD Resolution with National Health Service (NHS)-Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) services.
methodsA sample of 211 closed cases from the service provider between April 2022 and May 2023 were utilized. Clients provided demographic data and completed a series of mental health screening tools. Follow-up data were also collected where possible. Paired t-tests, univariable binary logistic regressions and chi-squared tests were used in the analysis.
resultsAround 6% of clients attended only one session, with 82% having a planned ending. This service evaluation suggests that veterans who enter therapy with PTSD Resolution appear to experience similar rates of recovery to IAPT users. Analysis of follow-up data revealed that clients scores slightly increased following the completion of therapy but remained below caseness thresholds and significantly lower than entry-level scores.
conclusionsThese data suggest that veterans who choose to engage with PTSD Resolution for their mental health difficulties should expect to experience a similar benefit to that they would have experienced if they had sought outpatient care from the NHS.
