Treatment-related changes of molecular biomarkers in major depressive disorder: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Year: 2021
Type: study-registration
Study designs: Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis
Abstract: Review question / Objective: The aim of this review is two-fold: first, we sought to identify candidate biomarkers that could provide information on whether an individual with MDD would respond positively to common non-pharmacological treatments, and secondly, to conduct a meta-analysis to determine whether one form of common non-pharmacological treatment (namely CBT, tDCS and TMS) would produce better results over another in regards to its influence on biomarker levels. Information sources: The information sources used were: three online databases (PubMed, Scopus, and PsycINFO) to identify English-language human randomised controlled trials unrestricted by year of publication.
