Making visible the clinical practice of mentalization-based therapy as illustrated by the therapy session material.
Article in Discover mental health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
Mentalization refers to the capacity to form mental representations of intentional mental states (e.g. emotions, needs, desires, beliefs, purposes) and thereby to be aware of and understand these mental states in oneself and in others. It helps individuals to sustain psychological balance and flexibly manage different kinds of life’s challenges. A well-functioning capacity for mentalization is a key factor in mental health and enables individuals to navigate their social environment. This article illustrates the central concepts of mentalizing, and the session material of clinical case shows how mentalization-based treatment (MBT) fosters and strengthens mentalizing capacity in practice. It highlights the methods and processes of mentalization-based therapy through a detailed, session-based case example, presented as a pedagogical case study designed to make the clinical practice of MBT visible.
