Although those who serve in the military are at risk for certain types of trauma, other traumatic events affect civilians (those in the community).

This dataset provides between-arm results for dichotomous outcomes: loss of diagnosis and clinically meaningful response. Included is information on how loss of diagnosis and clinically meaningful response were defined, p-value for statistical test, and study-reported effect sizes.

Each comparison is on a separate row, and pairwise as well as omnibus (multi-arm) comparisons are included. There are also separate rows for studies with more than one measure, time point and analysis type or when there is with more than one definition of diagnostic change or clinically meaningful change.

The PTSD Repository allows researchers to quickly identify relevant PTSD treatment clinical trials and download data in a variety of formats for the purpose of conducting systematic reviews and meta-analyses.

PTSD treatment studies may include people of all different backgrounds. Learning who participates in research tells us whether the findings from given studies apply to the rest of the population.

Learn about these therapies that use different techniques to help people process traumatic experiences. Some involve visualizing, talking or thinking about the traumatic memory. Others focus on changing unhelpful beliefs about the trauma.

The Harms dataset includes information on serious adverse events and participant withdrawals from the studies due to adverse events. Adverse events are reported as the percent of participants within a treatment group that experienced an adverse event or who withdrew from the study. Detail on the specific adverse event or reason for withdrawal is provided when available. This dataset also reports on the percentage of patients who attempted or completed suicide (when available).
Values abstracted as "NA" or "NR" from the study are represented as null values/empty cells in this dataset.
Study level variables like military status and percent female are included for filtering purposes

Although all studies in the PTSD Repository are published in English, the research is done in many countries around the world.

Learn about the most common PTSD treatment types and how research on them has grown over time.

The Study Characteristics dataset includes basic information about study design. In addition to study class, the dataset includes clinical setting, whether the study looked at PTSD symptom clusters, whether there were any subgroup analyses, type of diagnostic measure used (e.g., diagnostic interview, self-report), and provider credentials. Use this dataset to better understand the variety of RCT designs employed, compare studies by study class or to identify gaps in the literature for potential new RCTs. Visualizations made from this dataset will be based on the 496 RCTs included in the PTSD-Repository. Values reported as "NA" or not reported "NR" by the study are null values (empty cells). Data is at the study level.
