The results of the 10-week randomised trial were published in the Lancet in July 1988 (Tyrer, Seivewright, Murphy et al., 1988). The main findings at this point did not include any analysis of the general neurotic syndrome as this was not a term that would have been understood by the average reader and would have just led to confusion. The results were presented in a standard manner, focusing on the effects of the five treatments (Figure 4.1) and of the outcome of the three diagnostic groups (Figure 4.2).
