It showed a slight benefit in a small particular subgroup for one of the things they checked (only those with above median severity benefited a bit more).
For what is worth, the fact that any treatment has roughly the same effects (with some being slightly more or less effective in some subgroups in smallish samples) shows that the effects of all those treatments are likely placebo, or at minimum that there is nothing special about meditation (e.g. you can get the same benefit from talking to someone/listen to an audiobook or whatever).
