According to Healio (2/3, Gramigna), in an 81-study scoping review, investigators have “identified variables reported as significant in three or more randomized clinical trials with respect to adolescent depression outcomes.” Those variables included “age, sex/gender and baseline depression severity.” The findings were published online Feb. 1 in JAMA Network Open. “33 RCTs with results described across 81 publications, variable domains reported as significant in at least 3 RCTs with respect to depression outcomes included age, sex/gender, baseline depression severity, early response to treatment, sleep changes, parent-child conflict, overall psychopathology, suicidal ideation, hopelessness, functional impairment, attendance at psychotherapy sessions, and history of trauma”.
