Abstract
Abstract Objective Evaluate the effectiveness of mobile applications developed for intervention in suicide risk in adults. Method Searches for articles were carried out in four databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus and PsychINFO). For the meta-analyses, we used fixed effect modelling to assess the primary outcome. The PROSPERO register is CRD42020163876. Results After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, six studies remained in the systematic review, of which four were eligible to the meta-analysis. There was no difference, or a little tendency in favor of control condition (usual treatment) comparing with applications. Conclusion Applications can be as effective as standard treatments in reducing suicide ideation. The results should be interpreted with caution once all studies presented at least one bias in their study design.
目的评估干预成人自杀风险的移动应用程序的有效性。方法在PubMed、Web of Science、Scopus和PsychINFO四个数据库中进行检索。对于meta分析,我们使用固定效应模型来评估主要结果。普洛斯彼罗寄存器是CRD42020163876。结果应用纳入和排除标准后,6项研究仍在系统评价中,其中4项符合meta分析的条件。对照条件(常规处理)与施用条件相比,无差异或有轻微的偏向。结论应用与标准治疗在减少自杀意念方面同样有效。一旦所有研究在其研究设计中出现至少一种偏倚,则应谨慎解释结果。
