The Effectiveness and Outcomes of Culturally Adapted Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Across Common Mental Health Conditions: A Meta-Analysis.
Review in Behavioral sciences (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Culturally adapted cognitive behavioral therapy (CaCBT) is increasingly used to reduce disparities in mental health outcomes among ethnoculturally diverse populations. Although CBT is a well-established evidence-based intervention, little is known about CaCBT's effectiveness across diagnostic groups and global contexts. This meta-analysis synthesizes CaCBT efficacy for common mental health conditions. Using PRISMA guidelines, five electronic databases were used to search for RCTs reporting mental health variables for CaCBT. Funnel plots, Egger's test, and the trim-and-fill method were used to evaluate publication bias. Hedges' g was used to compute effect sizes, and heterogeneity was assessed through DerSimonian and Laird I
