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

Psychological treatments for perinatal depression and anxiety are effective when delivered in-person or remotely. However, new and expectant mothers face considerable barriers to receiving mental health care, especially on an ongoing basis or when delivered in-person. Very brief digital treatments may be able to support women during this time using less time than existing treatments. The current study reports the development and initial evaluation of a therapist-guided digital ultra-brief treatment for perinatal depression or anxiety. The treatment included one online lesson, supporting resources (e.g., practice exercises), and an optional consultation (telephone or secure messaging) with a clinical psychologist. We examined acceptability, satisfaction, and preliminary efficacy in a single-group trial of women with perinatal depression or anxiety symptoms (
