Collaborative care for depression in primary care: Making sense of a complex intervention: systematic review and meta-regression
Open accessAbstract
Background: The management of depression in primary care is a significant issue for health services worldwide. ‘Collaborative care’ interventions are effective, but little is known about which aspects of these complex interventions are essential. Aims: To use meta-regression to identify ‘active ingredients' in collaborative care models for depression in primary care. Method: Studies were identified using systematic searches of electronic databases. The content of collaborative care interventions was coded, together with outcome data on antidepressant use and depressive symptoms. Meta-regression was used to examine relationships between intervention content and outcomes. Results: There was no significant predictor of the effect of collaborative care on antidepressant use. Key predictors of depressive symptom outcomes included systematic identification of patients, professional background of staff and specialist supervision. Conclusions: Meta-regression may be useful in examining ‘active ingredients' in complex interventions in mental health.

In the citing paper
“The resulting sample size of 100 screen-positive participants in 24 clusters provides over 90% power to detect a difference in recovery rates of 70% in the CSC arm versus 50% in the EUC control arm, with estimates based on earlier efficacy trials in Goa [15] and Chile [17].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
