Abstract

Background: Children and adolescent depression conditions are responsible for high levels of disability burden and negatively influence academic participation and life-long outcomes while their interventions and outcomes remain controversial.

Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search in multiple databases of primary studies. The EPPI-Mapper mapping tool was applied to present identified studies as framework-described results.

Discussion: This is the protocol for an evidence and gap map (EGM). The objectives of this EGM are to identify and map all randomized controlled studies (RCTs) on universal, school-based social and emotional learning programs for children and adolescents with depressive symptoms or diagnoses of depression, and to identify existing gaps in the evidence for creating an interactive, searchable, and publicly accessible EGM. The map will provide insights for researchers and decision-makers, build on the evidence bases in this field, and identify key areas for future research.

减少儿童和青少年抑郁症状的各种干预措施的证据：全球证据和差距图的协议。

背景：儿童和青少年抑郁状况是造成高水平残疾负担的原因，并对学业参与和终身结局产生负面影响，而其干预措施和结果仍存在争议。方法：我们在多个原始研究数据库中进行了全面检索。应用EPPI-Mapper绘图工具将确定的研究作为框架描述的结果呈现。讨论：这是证据和缺口图（EGM）的协议。本EGM的目标是识别和绘制所有针对有抑郁症状或被诊断为抑郁症的儿童和青少年的普遍的、基于学校的社会和情感学习项目的随机对照研究（RCTs），并确定创建交互式、可搜索和可公开访问的EGM的证据中存在的差距。该地图将为研究人员和决策者提供见解，建立在该领域的证据基础上，并确定未来研究的关键领域。系统评价注册：Campbell Systematic Reviews cl2.20240091。

期刊介绍： Systematic Reviews encompasses all aspects of the design, conduct and reporting of systematic reviews. The journal publishes high quality systematic review products including systematic review protocols, systematic reviews related to a very broad definition of health, rapid reviews, updates of already completed systematic reviews, and methods research related to the science of systematic reviews, such as decision modelling. At this time Systematic Reviews does not accept reviews of in vitro studies. The journal also aims to ensure that the results of all well-conducted systematic reviews are published, regardless of their outcome.
