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
backgroundIndividuals with comorbid generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and depression often experience impaired mentalized affectivity and interpersonal problems. The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of integrated cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) on mentalized affectivity and interpersonal problems in comorbid GAD and depressive patients. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis quasi-experimental study utilized a single-case method to examine the effectiveness of integrated CBT on mentalized affectivity and interpersonal problems in comorbid GAD and depressive patients of Isfahan, Iran in 2020. Four participants with GAD comorbid with depression were selected through convenient sampling and received individual integrated CBT intervention for 10 weeks. The Inventory of Interpersonal Problems-32 (IIP-32) and Mental Affect Scale (MAS) were administered at baseline; third, fifth, eighth, and tenth sessions and at 1 month follow-up to assess treatment outcomes.
resultsThe visual design, improvement rate, and reliable change index (RCI) demonstrated that integrated CBT produced clinically and statistically significant changes and improvements in treatment goals (i.e., mentalized affectivity and interpersonal problems). Furthermore, the therapeutic effects were sustained during the follow-up phase.
conclusionThe results suggest that integrated CBT is a promising treatment for moderating mentalized affect and interpersonal problems in individuals with comorbid GAD and depression.
