Trial reportImplementation science : IS2025
A randomized trial of adapted versus standard versions of the Transdiagnostic Intervention for Sleep and Circadian Dysfunction implemented via facilitation and delivered by community mental health providers: improving the "fit" of psychological treatments by adapting to context.
Trial report in Implementation science : IS, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04154631 (Implementing and Sustaining a Transdiagnostic Sleep and Circadian Treatment to Improve Severe Mental Illness Outcomes in Community Mental Health Part 1), which is not on this map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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.

Abstract
backgroundGrounded in the Integrated Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services framework (i-PARIHS) and the Replicating Effective Programs framework (REP), the goal is to determine if the use of theory, data and end-user perspectives to guide an adaptation of the Transdiagnostic Intervention for Sleep and Circadian Dysfunction (TSC) yields better outcomes and improves the "fit" of TSC to community mental health centers (CMHCs), relative to the standard version.
methodsTen counties in California were cluster-randomized by county to Adapted or Standard TSC. Within each county, adults who exhibited sleep and circadian dysfunction and serious mental illness (SMI) were randomized to immediate TSC or Usual Care followed by Delayed Treatment with TSC (UC-DT). Facilitation was the implementation strategy. The participants were 93 CMHC providers who delivered TSC (Standard = 30; Adapted = 63) and 396 CMHC patients (Standard = 74; Adapted = 124; UC-DT = 198). Patient assessments were completed at pre-treatment, post-treatment, and six months after treatment (6FU). Provider assessments were completed at post-training, mid-treatment, and post-treatment.
resultsTSC (combining Adapted and Standard), relative to UC-DT before delayed treatment with TSC, was associated with improvement from pre- to post-treatment in sleep disturbance (b = -10.91, p < 0.001, d = -1.52), sleep-related impairment (b = -9.52, p < 0.001, d = -1.06), sleep health composite (b = 1.63, p < 0.001, d = 0.95), psychiatric symptoms (b = -6.72, p < 0.001, d = -0.52), and overall functional impairment (b = -5.12, p < 0.001, d = -0.71). TSC's benefits for functional impairment and psychiatric symptoms were mediated by improvements in sleep and circadian problems. Adapted versus Standard TSC did not differ on provider ratings of fit and better fit did not mediate the relation between TSC condition and patient outcome.
conclusionsTSC can be delivered by CMHC providers. Adapted and Standard TSC both fit the CMHC context. These findings are interpreted through the lens of the four core constructs of the i-PARIHS framework.
