A Systematic Review of Factors Associated With Treatment Engagement and Outcome for Women in the Perinatal Period Receiving Individual Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Depression, Anxiety, and Trauma-Related 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
Depression, anxiety, and trauma-related disorders commonly occur in the perinatal period, with high rates of comorbidity, and potentially adverse outcomes for women and children. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment, however less than half of new mothers experiencing symptoms seek treatment. This review was focused on factors affecting treatment engagement and outcome in a clinical perinatal population. A mixed-methods systematic review was conducted according to Cochrane Collaboration Guidelines. We included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of individual CBT where at least 70% of women met diagnostic criteria for depression, anxiety, or trauma-related disorders during the perinatal period. Information on, and factors associated with treatment engagement, satisfaction, therapeutic alliance were examined as risk ratios (RRs). Twenty-eight studies relating to 19 RCTs, with 2557 participants were reviewed. Most studies examined CBT adapted to the perinatal context. Engagement was good overall, and high levels of satisfaction and therapeutic alliance were reported. A relationship was demonstrated between engagement and outcome in three studies. Dropout did not differ for studies of CBT compared to treatment as usual (TAU), but there was greater dropout for CBT across four studies where the guiding therapist/coach had a minimal level of psychological therapy training and qualifications (
