Availability of Cognitive Remediation Therapy in United States Mental Health Facilities Serving Older Adults: A Statistical Study.
Article in Cureus, 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
introductionOlder age is a major risk factor for many neurocognitive disorders like Alzheimer's disease. While there are limited treatment options for improving memory in this population, research has shown that special psychotherapeutic modalities like Cognitive Remediation Therapy (CRT), especially when coupled with psychosocial and vocational rehabilitation (PSR and VCR respectively), benefit older adults. This study examines the availability of these services in US mental health (MH) facilities serving older adults and compares the characteristics of the facilities providing these services.
methodsOur study includes 1216 MH facilities using the 2022 National Substance Use and Mental Health Services Survey (N-SUMHSS) data from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). Descriptive statistics were used to determine availabilities, while multivariable logistic regression was used to compare facilities that offer the services compared to those that do not.
resultsOf the total facilities included, 78 (6%), 634 (52%), and 381 (31%) offered CRT, PSR, and VCR respectively. Facilities that provided only MH services compared to those providing substance use and MH services, those that offer special services for veterans, and special Alzheimer's programs compared to those that do not were more likely to have CRT services. MH facilities that provide supplemental employment services, housing services and recovery housing were more likely to offer PSR and VCR compared to those that do not. Compared to facilities in Midwest states, facilities in East South-Central were less likely to offer PSR and VCR.
conclusionThis study highlights the relative unavailability of CRT, indicating a need for more interest in evidence-based nonpharmacological treatment options for cognitive decline in the aging population.
