Evaluating the effectiveness of telehealth-delivered Child and Family Traumatic Stress Intervention (CFTSI) for children and adolescents following recent trauma: a multi-zite randomized controlled trial in France.
Trial report in BMC psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07031817 (Validation of a Composite Medical Device Using a Blood Biomarker-based Algorithm and MDQ for the Diagnosis of Bipolar Disorder in Patients With a Characterized Depressive Episode in Primary Care), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
backgroundChildren and adolescents exposed to traumatic events (TEs) are at risk of developing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), with long-term emotional, cognitive, and social consequences. Early interventions within the first months post-trauma are essential, yet structured, evidence-based approaches remain limited. The Child and Family Traumatic Stress Intervention (CFTSI) is a brief, family-centered approach that enhances parental support and reduces post-traumatic symptoms. While effective in the U.S., its implementation in European settings, particularly via telehealth, remains unexplored.
objectiveThis study evaluates the effectiveness of telehealth-delivered CFTSI in reducing post-traumatic symptoms in children aged 7-17 after recent TEs, compared to non-specific psychological support. Secondary objectives include assessing symptom persistence at three months, parental PTSD symptoms, and predictors of treatment response.
methodsThis study is a multicenter, evaluator-blinded RCT comparing CFTSI to supportive counseling. Eligible children (aged 7-17) must have experienced a TE within the past 45 days and exhibit at least one posttraumatic stress symptom. Exclusion criteria include severe cognitive impairment, ongoing abuse, or acute psychiatric emergencies.The CFTSI group will receive 5-8 structured, family-focused telehealth sessions targeting parent-child communication and coping. The control group will receive supportive counseling. The primary outcome is post-traumatic symptom reduction, assessed using the Child Posttraumatic Stress Checklist 3 months after completion of the program. Secondary outcomes include three-month symptom persistence, parental PTSD symptoms, and predictors of response. Analyses will use ANCOVA and regression models adjusted for baseline characteristics. DISCUSSION: This is the first RCT in France evaluating telehealth-delivered CFTSI. Conducted across four sites, findings will inform trauma care integration at regional and national levels. By improving accessibility and supporting trauma-exposed families, this study aims to enhance clinical training and advance evidence-based early interventions.
