Figure 9 is titled “Loss of diagnosis for exposure therapy compared with inactive comparator.” The figure displays a forest plot reporting risk difference in loss of PTSD diagnosis, exposure therapy versus inactive comparators. This figure is described further in the “Loss of PTSD Diagnosis” section as follows: “Participants treated with exposure therapy had greater rates of loss of PTSD diagnosis as compared with participants in the inactive comparator groups (RD, 0.56; 95% CI, 0.35 to 0.78; 6 trials, N=409; high SOE) (Figure 9).”
