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
Objective: In blended care therapy, clients and therapists work together in synchronous psychotherapy sessions and asynchronous guided practice sessions, in which therapists assign digital tools (e.g., video lessons, written exercises) and provide guidance. This model of care is effective at scale, but the therapist experience of delivering this care has not been thoroughly examined. This study explores the therapist experience of using digital tools in blended care therapy delivered via telehealth and the perceived benefits and challenges of working within this model. Methods: Therapists ( Results: The majority of survey participants reported that digital tools had positive effects on their mental health care delivery. Nearly all respondents (93.68%) reported learning new clinical skills from the tools. Three primary themes were generated through thematic analysis. First, we summarize ways in which blended care impacts therapeutic relationships. Then, we describe how the structure of digital tools supports clients and therapists to develop and practice skills. Finally, we discuss how delivering blended care impacts therapist time and energy. Conclusion: Results provide insights into the experience of delivering blended care therapy. Well-integrated digital tools appear to bring unique value to therapists that goes beyond their past experiences delivering care in traditional systems.
