Figure 13 is titled “Standardized mean change from baseline in PTSD symptoms for EMDR compared with inactive comparator.” The figure displays a forest plot reporting the standardized mean difference in PTSD symptoms, EMDR compared with inactive comparators. This figure is described further in the “PTSD symptoms” section as follows: Our meta-analysis (Figure 13) found greater decreases in PTSD symptoms for EMDR than for inactive comparator subjects (SMD, −1.08; 95% CI, −1.82 to −0.35; I2=91.5%, 8 studies; N=449).”
