Abstract

Pediatric obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common (2% prevalence) and potentially debilitating condition.¹ Early identification and intervention are critical because they may improve outcomes for children and adolescents with OCD and prevent long-term morbidity. The individual participant data (IPD) meta-analysis by Cohen and colleagues² explores the efficacy of short-term trials of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) compared to placebo for treating children and adolescents with OCD. It also investigates the moderating effects of baseline patient variables on treatment outcome.

期刊介绍： The Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry (JAACAP) is dedicated to advancing the field of child and adolescent psychiatry through the publication of original research and papers of theoretical, scientific, and clinical significance. Our primary focus is on the mental health of children, adolescents, and families. We welcome unpublished manuscripts that explore various perspectives, ranging from genetic, epidemiological, neurobiological, and psychopathological research, to cognitive, behavioral, psychodynamic, and other psychotherapeutic investigations. We also encourage submissions that delve into parent-child, interpersonal, and family research, as well as clinical and empirical studies conducted in inpatient, outpatient, consultation-liaison, and school-based settings. In addition to publishing research, we aim to promote the well-being of children and families by featuring scholarly papers on topics such as health policy, legislation, advocacy, culture, society, and service provision in relation to mental health. At JAACAP, we strive to foster collaboration and dialogue among researchers, clinicians, and policy-makers in order to enhance our understanding and approach to child and adolescent mental health.
