Efficacy of home-based non-pharmacological interventions for treating depression: a systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES:To systematically review and compare the efficacy of all available home-based non-pharmacological treatments of depression. DESIGN:Systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials. DATA SOURCES:Medline, Scopus and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) databases were searched since inceptions to 7 August 2016. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA:Randomised controlled trials comparing the efficacy of home-based non-pharmacological interventions with usual care of patients with depression were included in the review. MAIN OUTCOMES:Depression symptom scores and disease remission rates at the end of treatment. RESULTS:Seventeen studies were included in the review. Home-based non-pharmacological interventions were categorised as (1) home-based psychological intervention, (2) home-based exercise intervention, (3) combined home-based psychological intervention with exercise intervention and (4) complementary medicine. Complementary medicine approaches were excluded from the meta-analysis due to heterogeneity. The standardised mean differences of post-treatment depression symptom scores between usual care groups and home-based psychological intervention, home-based exercise intervention and combined home-based psychological intervention with exercise intervention were âˆ'0.57 (95% CI âˆ'0.84 to âˆ'0.31), âˆ'1.03 (95% CI âˆ'2.89 to 0.82) and âˆ'0.78 (95% CI âˆ'1.09 to âˆ'0.47), respectively. These results suggest that only home-based psychological intervention and combined home-based psychological intervention with exercise intervention could significantly decrease depression scores. Compared with usual care groups, the disease remission rate was also significantly higher for home-based psychological intervention (pooled risk ratio=1.53; 95%â€‰CI 1.19 to 1.98) and combined home-based psychological intervention with exercise intervention (pooled risk ratio=3.47; 95%â€‰CI 2.11 to 5.70). Of all the studied interventions, combined home-based psychological intervention with exercise intervention had the highest probability of resulting in disease remission. CONCLUSION:Our study confirms the efficacy of home-based psychological intervention and combined home-based psychological intervention with exercise intervention in the treatment of depression. Combined home-based psychological intervention and exercise intervention was the best treatment and should be considered for inclusion in clinical guidelines for managing depression.

Project description:INTRODUCTION:The long-term effectiveness of psychological interventions for the treatment of subthreshold depression and the prevention of depression is unclear and effects vary among subgroups of patients, indicating that not all patients profit from such interventions. Randomised clinical trials are mostly underpowered to examine adequately subgroups and moderator effects. The aim of the present study is, therefore, to examine the short-term and long-term as well as moderator effects of psychological interventions compared with control groups in adults with subthreshold depression on depressive symptom severity, treatment response, remission, symptom deterioration, quality of life, anxiety and the prevention of major depressive disorder (MDD) onsets on individual patient level and study level using an individual patient data meta-analysis approach. METHODS AND ANALYSIS:Systematic searches in PubMed, PsycINFO, Embase and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were conducted. We will use the following types of outcome criteria: (A) onset of major depression; (B) time to major depression onset; (C) observer-reported and self-reported depressive symptom severity; (D) response; (E) remission; (F) symptom deterioration; (G) quality of life, (H) anxiety; and (I) suicidal thoughts and behaviours. Multilevel models with participants nested within studies will be used. Missing data will be handled using a joint modelling approach to multiple imputation. A number of sensitivity analyses will be conducted in order test the robustness of our findings. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION:The investigators of the primary trials have obtained ethical approval for the data used in the present study and for sharing the data, if this was necessary, according to local requirements and was not covered from the initial ethic assessment.This study will summarise the available evidence on the short-term and long-term effectiveness of preventive psychological interventions for the treatment of subthreshold depression and prevention of MDD onset. Identification of subgroups of patients in which those interventions are most effective will guide the development of evidence-based personalised interventions for patients with subthreshold depression.

Project description:IntroductionKaixinsan (KXS) has been in use as an effective classic formulation of traditional Chinese medicine for depression. However, its active components and action mechanism against depression remain elusive. The purpose of this study was to summarize and evaluate the efficacy and potential pharmacological mechanisms of KXS in antidepressant treatment.Materials and methodsReports on the use of KXS in the treatment of depression were systematically collected from PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chongqing VIP, and Wanfang Data from the establishment to July 2022, including those on mood disorders in neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. Meta-analysis was conducted with the Review Manager 5.3 software. Online datasets, traditional Chinese medicine system pharmacological analysis platform, GeneCards, online Mendelian inheritance in man, and DisGeNET were used to investigate the depression-related genes. The gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichments were performed to construct the 'component-target-pathways' network using Metascape online analyses.ResultTen studies were included in the analysis. Meta-analysis showed that both low-dose KXS (SMD = 19.66, Z = 7.96, and I 2 = 42%) and high-dose KXS (SMD = 23.84, Z = 8.46, and I 2 = 13%) could increase the sucrose preference in depression models. In addition, 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) (SMD = 10.91, Z = 2.95, and I 2 = 50%) returned to normal level after the treatment at low dose KXS. In network pharmacology, 50 active components and 376 gene targets were screened out. AKT1, GAPDH, ALB, TNF, and TP53 were the core target proteins. GO analysis showed that KXS mainly treats depression in biological processes such as response to drugs, cellular calcium ion homeostasis, and regulation of chemical synaptic signal transmission. KEGG results show that the mechanism of action of KXS in treating depression is through neural activity ligand-receptor interaction, the calcium signaling and CAMP signaling pathways.DiscussionThe study reveals the active components and potential molecular mechanism of KXS in the treatment of depression and provides evidence for future basic research.

Project description:IntroductionTherapeutic recommendations for hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) have recently shifted towards non-invasive pharmacological options. Recent evidence has shown promising efficacy for specific treatments. However, data regarding the comparative efficacy of these treatments in patients with HS are still limited. Therefore, we plan to conduct a systematic review and network meta-analysis (NMA) to summarise the benefits and harms of different pharmacological interventions for treating people living with HS.Methods and analysisWe will search electronic databases, including Medline, Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, CINAHL and Cochrane Library beginning from their inception dates with no language restrictions. A grey literature search will be performed to supplement the electronic databases. Both randomised trials and non-randomised studies using validated measurement tools that investigated the benefits and harms of pharmacological interventions among people living with HS will be included. The predefined primary outcomes will include treatment responses that reflect the patient's perspective and all-cause discontinuation. Screening, selection, extraction, assessment of the risk of bias and analysis of the strength of the evidence will be performed independently by a pair of reviewers. A two-step approach of traditional pairwise and NMA will be performed. Based on a random-effects model, standardised weighted mean differences and ORs with corresponding 95% CIs will be pooled as effect estimates for the continuous and categorical endpoints, respectively. Statistical and methodological heterogeneities will be assessed. Preplanned subgroup analyses and univariate meta-regression will be conducted to quantify the potential sources of heterogeneity. Evidence-based synthesis will be based on the magnitudes of effect size, evidence certainty and the surface under the cumulative ranking curve values.Ethics and disseminationEthical approval is not required because this study is based on existing published data. These findings will be disseminated through scientific meetings and publications in peer-reviewed journals.Prospero registration numberCRD42022302795.
