Figure 4 is titled “Loss of diagnosis for CPT compared with inactive comparators.” The figure displays a forest plot reporting risk difference in loss of PTSD diagnosis, CPT versus inactive comparators. This figure is described further in the “Loss of PTSD Diagnosis” section as follows: “The four CPT trials that reported loss of diagnosis outcomes favored CPT over inactive comparator (RD=0.44, 95% CI=0.26 to 0.62, I2=77.9%, 4 trials, N=299, moderate SOE) (Figure 4).”
