Cognitive behavioral treatment of PTSD in residents of battered women's shelters: results of a randomized clinical trial.

Johnson DM; Zlotnick C; Perez S · Journal of consulting and clinical psychology · 2011 · Randomized controlled trial

Original publication · Original publication · Original publication · Original publication

Recorded summary

The trial found lower reabuse risk and improvement in selected PTSD symptom clusters. It did not establish a clear overall PTSD-severity benefit.

Recorded limitations

Small Phase I trial; interviewers not assured masked and depression imbalance required adjustment. Most women left shelter before completing therapy.

Evidence and provenance

Chapter Trust Factor uses a minimum of three distinct qualifying studies. Publication records retain their own evidence and assessment.

method
AI editorial assessment of all 130 publication records: compare identity, headline finding, design, relevance and limitations with indexed abstracts or available primary material; adjudicate retained source-supported methods amendments. This is a source-limited publication audit, not an independent full-text systematic review or a clinical guideline.
limitations

Abstract-only records do not establish allocation concealment, complete harms reporting or full risk of bias. · No formal independent RoB 2, GRADE appraisal or numerical reconstruction of every effect was performed. · Source-access labels describe retained appraisal evidence; fuller prior appraisals were checked through their source ledgers and selected material, not independently repeated in full. · Publication counts are not independent trial or participant counts; cohort links and overlapping review evidence remain provisional. · A randomized design cross does not indicate benefit, low risk of bias or human approval. No double-blind trial is verified in this release. · No professional clinical peer review is claimed. Recommended content is limited to accurately qualified research summaries.

    method
    AI editorial assessment of all 130 publication records: compare identity, headline finding, design, relevance and limitations with indexed abstracts or available primary material; adjudicate retained source-supported methods amendments. This is a source-limited publication audit, not an independent full-text systematic review or a clinical guideline.
    limitations

    Abstract-only records do not establish allocation concealment, complete harms reporting or full risk of bias. · No formal independent RoB 2, GRADE appraisal or numerical reconstruction of every effect was performed. · Source-access labels describe retained appraisal evidence; fuller prior appraisals were checked through their source ledgers and selected material, not independently repeated in full. · Publication counts are not independent trial or participant counts; cohort links and overlapping review evidence remain provisional. · A randomized design cross does not indicate benefit, low risk of bias or human approval. No double-blind trial is verified in this release. · No professional clinical peer review is claimed. Recommended content is limited to accurately qualified research summaries.

      primary Status
      Primary
    finding
    The trial found lower reabuse risk and improvement in selected PTSD symptom clusters. It did not establish a clear overall PTSD-severity benefit.
    limitation
    Small Phase I trial; interviewers not assured masked and depression imbalance required adjustment. Most women left shelter before completing therapy.
    design
    type
    Randomized controlled trial
    randomization Evidence

    Provisional appraisal; see limitations, attrition and masking. No formal risk-of-bias score assigned.
    attrition
    Follow-up counts 68/70 at one week and 66/70 at three and six months; mean 6.8/12 sessions, nine completed all twelve.
    confounding
    Random allocation addresses baseline confounding if implemented; allocation concealment and analysis details remain source-dependent.
    adverse Findings
    Seven hospitalizations and four life-threatening traumas occurred; no unanticipated research-related serious event required trial removal.

    Generalizability is limited to the stated population, setting and comparator.

    method
    AI editorial assessment of all 130 publication records: compare identity, headline finding, design, relevance and limitations with indexed abstracts or available primary material; adjudicate retained source-supported methods amendments. This is a source-limited publication audit, not an independent full-text systematic review or a clinical guideline.
    limitations

    Abstract-only records do not establish allocation concealment, complete harms reporting or full risk of bias. · No formal independent RoB 2, GRADE appraisal or numerical reconstruction of every effect was performed. · Source-access labels describe retained appraisal evidence; fuller prior appraisals were checked through their source ledgers and selected material, not independently repeated in full. · Publication counts are not independent trial or participant counts; cohort links and overlapping review evidence remain provisional. · A randomized design cross does not indicate benefit, low risk of bias or human approval. No double-blind trial is verified in this release. · No professional clinical peer review is claimed. Recommended content is limited to accurately qualified research summaries.
