Online CBT Versus Standard CBT for Pediatric Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.
Article in Child psychiatry and human development, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), characterized by recurring obsessions and compulsions, affects 1-3% of the childhood population, often leading to severe impairment and reduced quality of life. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is well-documented as first choice treatment for pediatric OCD. Traditionally delivered face-to-face CBT has limitations in terms of accessibility, availability, and quality of delivery. Online CBT using video conferencing (online-CBT) at home aims to address some of these barriers. In this pilot study, we aimed to compare acceptability, feasibility and effectiveness of online CBT against face-to-face CBT. Online CBT outcomes of 29 children with OCD were analyzed benchmarked against outcomes of face-to-face CBT (n = 269) from the Nordic Long-term OCD Treatment Study, the largest CBT follow up study in pediatric OCD to date. Acceptability rated by online CBT participants and their parents was very high (Client Satisfaction Questionnaire total scores about 30, range 8-32). Feasibility assessed as dropout rate was comparable to NordLOTS (10.3% versus 9.7%). The online CBT group compared to NordLOTS showed a higher response rate (90% versus 60%; p = .002) and remission rate (81% versus 53%; p = .231). Our results suggest that the trusting therapeutic relationship necessary for demanding exposure-based treatment can be established by online CBT. Online CBT seems to be at least as effective in reducing OCD symptoms than standard CBT. Trial ID: ISRCTN37530113.
