Evaluating a program to prevent anxiety in children of anxious parents
BACKGROUND: Pediatric anxiety disorders are prevalent, particularly among children with anxious parents. This trial evaluated a program for anxious parents aimed at preventing offspring anxiety disorders and symptoms over 12 months. METHODS: This parallel, randomized, controlled, open-label trial was conducted at Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden. Inclusion criteria comprised heightened parental anxiety and the child (5-9 years old) not cu…
Clinically representative therapy for Nordic adult outpatients with common mental health problems
There is a knowledge gap regarding clinically representative therapy given in routine settings, that is treatment as usual (TAU), for patients with common mental health problems (CMHP). This review and meta‐analysis aimed to investigate what characterizes clinically representative therapy in Nordic routine clinics and meta‐analyze the outcome of such treatment. Databases (PubMed, EMBASE, PsychINFO, and SveMed+) were searched for TAU, CMHP, and No…
The Efficacy of Parent Management Training With or Without Involving the Child in the Treatment Among Children with Clinical Levels of Disruptive Behavior
A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted where we evaluated the effects of Parent Management Training (PMT), Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) and PMT combined with child cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) using data from 25 RCTs on children with clinical levels of disruptive behavior (age range 2-13 years). Results showed that PMT (g = 0.64 [95% CI 0.42, 0.86]) and PCIT (g = 1.22 [95% CI 0.75, 1.69]) were more effective than wai…
Does Concentrated Exposure Treatment for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Improve Insomnia Symptoms? Results From a Randomized Controlled Trial
Insomnia is a substantial problem in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). There is, however, a lack of studies investigating changes in concurrent symptoms of insomnia in OCD after concentrated treatment. A recent randomized controlled trial randomized participants to the Bergen 4-day treatment (B4DT, n = 16), or 12 weeks of unguided self-help (SH, n = 16), or waitlist (WL, n = 16). Patients from the SH- and WL-group who wanted furt…

Applied Relaxation in Treatment of “Cardiac Neurosis”
The treatment of a case of “cardiac neurosis” is described. Using an applied relaxation treatment program the client was taught relaxation as a coping skill to be used when she felt changes in cardiac activity. The therapy was conducted with minimal contact, the client did most of the training on her own with the help of taped instructions. The results showed a definite decrease in severity of the problem during the treatment period, and by the t…
