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
backgroundDespite evidence that psychological interventions improve recovery for bipolar disorder, access to these in the United Kingdom is limited; online delivery provides opportunities to increase this. Mood on Track is a psychological therapy programme for bipolar disorder combining a Cognitive Behavioural Therapy group intervention with individual relapse prevention. The present study reports on a feasibility and acceptability trial of Mood on Track online, implemented within a routine clinical service, in preparation for a Randomised Controlled Trial. The online version retains the therapeutic elements of the face-to-face intervention, but is delivered via Zoom over more sessions and includes online exercises and breakout rooms.
methodA within-groups non-randomised longitudinal interventional study of feasibility and acceptability. Participants completed psychometric questionnaires at four time points from baseline to six months post-group intervention to evaluate change in recovery. Feasibility and acceptability of the intervention and a future study were assessed by measuring recruitment, intervention attendance and outcome measure completion.
resultsRates of recruitment, intervention completion and outcome measure completion demonstrate that Mood on Track online and a larger future trial are feasible and acceptable. Analysis of efficacy found that the primary outcome measure of personal recovery on the Bipolar Recovery Questionnaire significantly increased between the start and end of the group intervention and continued to significantly increase at follow-up. Scores on the secondary outcome measure of the Generalised Anxiety Disorder-7 questionnaire decreased significantly between the start and end of the group intervention.
conclusionsThe present study provides quantitative evidence that a future RCT of Mood on Track online is feasible in terms of recruitment, delivery procedures and data collection. The findings provide promising evidence that Mood on Track online is an acceptable intervention to service users and shows signs of efficacy through significantly increased recovery and reduced anxiety. This adds to literature demonstrating that online psychological interventions are effective and provide an innovative method for delivery. Provision of digital therapies could increase offer and take-up of therapy for people with bipolar disorder and improve recovery.
