Comparison of Adding Treatment of PTSD During and After Shelter Stay to Standard Care in Residents of Battered Women's Shelters: Results of a Randomized Clinical Trial.

Johnson DM; Johnson NL; Perez SK; Palmieri PA; Zlotnick C · Journal of traumatic stress · 2016 · Randomized controlled trial

Original publication · Original publication · Original publication · Original publication · Original publication

Recorded summary

HOPE improved PTSD trajectories, but did not reduce future IPV relative to standard services. Depression p=.052 is not treated as statistically significant.

Recorded limitations

Small Phase I trial; no attention-matched comparator and restricted eligibility limit transfer. This is a separate 60-person trial from the earlier 70-person shelter-only study.

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.

    intervention
    description
    Expanded HOPE plus standard shelter services.
    dose
    Up to 16 sessions continuing for three months after shelter.
    provider
    Postdoctoral and advanced doctoral therapists under licensed supervision.
    comparator
    Standard shelter services alone.
    outcomes
    1. name
      PTSD
      follow Up
      1 week, 3 and 6 months after treatment
      result
      Treatment-related trajectory improvement.
      effect Estimate
      beta=-0.007; p=.021
      uncertainty
      Confidence interval included when stated; otherwise not established from accessed source.
      primary Status
      Primary versus secondary status not fully established; see finding for explicitly identified secondary outcomes.
    2. name
      Future IPV
      follow Up
      Across follow-up
      result
      No between-group treatment effect.
      effect Estimate
      beta=.002; p=.709
      uncertainty
      Confidence interval included when stated; otherwise not established from accessed source.
      primary Status
      Primary versus secondary status not fully established; see finding for explicitly identified secondary outcomes.
    finding
    HOPE improved PTSD trajectories, but did not reduce future IPV relative to standard services. Depression p=.052 is not treated as statistically significant.
    limitation
    Small Phase I trial; no attention-matched comparator and restricted eligibility limit transfer. This is a separate 60-person trial from the earlier 70-person shelter-only study.

    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.
