1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveAlthough sexual minority women (SMW) veterans are disproportionately impacted by military sexual trauma and its negative consequences, little research has examined effective treatments in this population. This secondary analysis aims to address this gap by reporting outcomes of SMW veterans participating in a clinical trial of skills training in affective and interpersonal regulation (STAIR) compared with present-centered therapy (PCT) for the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder.

methodWomen veterans who experienced military sexual trauma (

resultsBoth groups (sexual minority and heterosexual women) improved on posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms. SMW started off with comparable symptoms to heterosexual women but improved more on emotion regulation (

conclusionsSMW veterans may particularly benefit from therapies that focus on emotion regulation, interpersonal skills, and/or provide strategies that address day-to-day stressors (e.g., STAIR, PCT). (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2026 APA, all rights reserved).
