Patterns of Symptom Change in Behaviors and Cognitions During 10-Session Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT-T) for Non-Underweight Eating Disorders.

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
objectiveLittle is known about the timing of behavioral versus cognitive change in 10-session cognitive-behavioral therapy for non-underweight eating disorders (CBT-T). We aimed to: (a) evaluate the magnitude of behavioral and cognitive symptom reduction across treatment; and (b) investigate the relation between early behavioral change and subsequent cognitive change. We hypothesized: (a) large and significant reductions in behavioral and cognitive symptoms from pre- to mid-treatment and from pre- to post-treatment; and (b) that early behavioral change would predict subsequent cognitive change over the course of treatment.
methodPatients (N = 63) were offered CBT-T and completed the Eating Disorder-15 on a weekly basis. We used intent-to-treat analyses. For Aim 1, we conducted a series of fixed-effect multilevel models for each outcome variable, accounting for repeated measures (pre-, mid-, and post-treatment) within individuals. For Aim 2, we conducted a linear regression using early behavioral change as the predictor and subsequent cognitive change as the outcome.
resultsWe observed large and significant reductions in most behavioral and all cognitive symptoms pre- to mid-treatment and pre- to post-treatment. Early changes in behavioral symptoms did not significantly predict subsequent cognitive changes. DISCUSSION: Behavioral improvements occurred rapidly and were sustained throughout treatment, whereas cognitive changes followed a more gradual trajectory. The absence of a significant predictive relationship between early behavioral change and subsequent cognitive change suggests that these domains may improve independently. Future research should investigate the mechanisms linking behavioral and cognitive changes.
