re cognitive aspects. eg:That participants knew they were being encouraged to adopt cognitive strategies emphasising a sense of control, etc, make it difficult to judge that lack of blinding was unlikely to have on influence on self-reports on how IBS interferes with their life.
Oh odd. I just went to the Cochrane site and navigated to the RoB tool. I've said why I don't think it's high risk so I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree

That being said, we agree that it's likely not possible to run a trial at less risk of bias on this topic so why does it matter? This is probably the best you can get, doesn't mean CBT is 100% effective but it does provide some fairly strong evidence

I don't agree! eg I linked to this old RCT of CBT for CFS that included a placebo & drug arm, helping to account for problems with bias: https://www.amjmed.com/article/0002-9343(93)90183-P/abstract … Also, if A vs A+B trials & subjective self-report outcomes provide fairly strong evidence for CBT, they do for CAM too.pic.twitter.com/DHXuYOlk4q
