Slide 5: Article 1: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

• Strengths: Combines results of multiple studies to provide an overview of CBT’s effectiveness in treating depression symptoms in chronically ill adults. By using standard methods and strict criteria for inclusion, the study minimizes any bias.
• CBT can be used to reduce depression symptoms among adults who suffer from chronic illness.

Article 2: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

• Strengths: This report provides an overview of the effectiveness and efficiency of short psychotherapy in treating depression. Uses strict criteria for inclusion and standard methods of analysis to minimize bias.
• For example, this study showed that short psychotherapy is effective at reducing depression symptoms in primary care settings. The effect was moderate to small.

Article 3: Randomized Controlled Trial

• Strengths: Random assignment of participants to control groups or interventions minimizes bias in selection. Comparison of an intervention group to a controlled group is possible.
• A study conducted on first responders found that mindfulness programs were effective at reducing depression and anxiety symptoms.

Article 4: Systematic Review

• Strengths: Offers an overview of the application of patient reported outcomes (PROs), in cancer care. By using strict criteria for inclusion and standard methods of analysis, the report minimizes bias.
• For example, this study concluded that using PROs to treat cancer patients can improve their communication and quality-of-life. But there are
