Abstract
BACKGROUND Although a previous review illustrated the efficacy of melatonin receptor agonists (MRAs) in preventing delirium, some recent randomized controlled trials (RCTs) did not confirm these effects. OBJECTIVES This study systematically reviewed the efficacy, acceptability, and tolerability of MRAs for delirium prevention. MATERIALS AND METHODS We searched electronic databases, including Scopus, PubMed, CINAHL, and Controlled Trials Register, from their inception to February 20, 2022. The primary efficacy outcome was delirium incidence rate after MRA administration; relative risks (RRs), overall discontinuation, and discontinuation due to adverse events are also presented. RESULTS The overall pooled incidence rates of delirium in MRA-treated and placebo-treated groups were significantly different with RR (95% CI)=0.66(0.52, 0.84, ), I2=59%. Similarly, the incidence rate was significantly lower in the melatonin-treated group than in the placebo-treated group [RR (95% CI) =0.65 (0.49, 0.88), I2=65%]. Unfortunately, incidence rates were not significantly different between ramelteon-treated and placebo-treated groups [RR (95% CI) =0.67 (0.42, 1.08), I2=50%]. The pooled incidence rate of delirium in either melatonin or ramelteon-treated groups was not significantly different from the placebo-treated group in elderly patients. The pooled incidence rate of delirium was significantly lower in the melatonin-treated group than in the benzodiazepinetreated group. CONCLUSION Based on this review, melatonin could prevent delirium with a small effect size. However, ramelteon did not show efficacy in preventing delirium. Additionally, neither melatonin nor ramelteon individually showed effectiveness in preventing delirium in elderly patients. Therefore, using MRAs to prevent delirium in clinical practice should be cautious. However, future welldefined and large sample size studies could verify these findings.

Abstract
Background: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common psychiatric illness in children and adolescents. Previous evidence suggests that fluoxetine is effective in the treatment of OCD in children and adolescents. However, those studies had small sample sizes. As a result, a systematic review, which is a more powerful method to calculate the true effect size, can be applied to examine the efficacy, acceptability and tolerability of fluoxetine in the treatment of OCD in children and adolescents.Objectives: The aims of this study were to review the efficacy, acceptability and tolerability of fluoxetine in the treatment of OCD in children and adolescents.Study appraisal and synthesis methods: The titles and abstracts collected from electronic databases were evaluated. Then, the full-text versions of relevant studies were thoroughly assessed and extracted.Results: A total of 188 randomized patients in three RCTs of fluoxetine versus placebo and one RCT of fluoxetine versus citalopram were included in this review. Considering efficacious outcomes, the pooled mean change score of the CY-BOCS in the fluoxetine-treated group was significantly greater than that in the placebo-treated group. Additionally, the CGI-S in the fluoxetine-treated group and the pooled mean change score of the NIMH-OC were also significantly different from those in the placebo-treated group.Limitation: This review included studies with small sample sizes.Conclusions and implications of key findings: Fluoxetine is associated with a significantly greater reduction in OCD severity, as measured by the CY-BOCS, NIMH-OC and CGI-S, in children and adolescents. Additionally, it is well tolerated in children and adolescents. The acceptability is comparable to that of the placebo-treated group. Nonetheless, further large prospective trials should be conducted to confirm these outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies found several factors associated with suicide in schizophrenic patients, such as age, sex, education level, history of suicide attempts, psychotic symptoms, social factors, and substance abuse. However, there might be some additional factors that were not considered in previous studies but may be correlated with a greater likelihood of suicide attempts, such as medication and treatment.
AIM To investigate the prevalence of suicide attempts and identify the risk of suicidality in hospitalized schizophrenia patients.
METHODS This is a cross-sectional study of schizophrenic patients admitted to a psychiatric hospital who were 18 years of age or more. The outcomes and possible suicide risk factors in these patients were collated. The current suicide risk was evaluated using the mini-international neuropsychiatric interview module for suicidality and categorized as none (0 points), mild (1-8 points), moderate (9-16 points), or severe (17 or more points). This study used ordinal logistic regression to assess the association of potential risk factors with the current suicide risk in schizophrenic patients.
RESULTS Of 228 hospitalized schizophrenia patients, 214 (93.9%) were included in this study. The majority (79.0%) of patients were males. Females appeared to have a slightly higher suicidality risk than males, with borderline significance. With regard to the current suicide risk assessed with the mini-international neuropsychiatric interview, 172 (80.4%) schizophrenic patients scored zero, 20 (9.4%) had a mild risk, 8 (3.7%) had a moderate risk, and 14 (6.5%) had a severe risk. The total prevalence of current suicide risk in these schizophrenic patients was 19.6%. Based on multivariable ordinal logistic regression analysis with backward elimination, it was found that younger age, a current major depressive episode, receiving fluoxetine or lithium carbonate in the previous month, or a relatively higher Charlson comorbidity index score were all significantly and independently associated with a higher level of suicide risk.
CONCLUSION The prevalence rate of suicide attempts in schizophrenia is high. Considering risk factors in routine clinical assessments, environmental manipulations and adequate treatment might prevent or decrease suicide in these patients.

Abstract
Objectives The aims of this study were to systematically review the efficacy, acceptability, and tolerability of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) combined with antidepressants in the treatment of the first major depressive disorder (MDD) episode. Materials and Methods The primary efficacious outcome was the pooled mean-endpoint scores of the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD). Rates of response, remission rate, overall discontinuation and discontinuation due to adverse events were also evaluated. Search in the Scopus, PubMed, CINAHL, and Cochrane Controlled Trials Register databases for interesting outcomes was carried out in March 2018. Results A total of 108 randomized patients of two randomized controlled trials were included in this study. The pooled mean- endpoint scores of the HAMD in one, two, and four weeks for rTMS plus antidepressants (citalopram or paroxetine) were greater than that of sham plus the antidepressants. The pooled rates of overall discontinuation and discontinuation rates due to adverse events were not different between the two groups. Conclusion According to a piece of limited evidence, the high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (HF-rTMS) could accelerate the antidepressant effect of SSRIs in young patients with a first-episode major depressive disorder. However, the acceptability and tolerability of HF-rTMS in the treatment of such patients are no better than an antidepressant alone. However, further well-defined and large sample-size studies of HF-rTMS combined with an antidepressant in MDD should be carried out to warrant these results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the prevalence of violence and factors associated with aggressive or violent behaviour in Thai patients with schizophrenia. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted in all patients with schizophrenia aged ≥18 years admitted to Suan Prung Psychiatric Hospital, Thailand, between January and November 2014. Baseline interviews were conducted by a psychiatrist and psychiatric nurses. Accessibility to weapons and toxic chemicals was evaluated. RESULTS Of 230 patients with schizophrenia screened, 207 (162 men and 45 women) were included. Of them, only 16 (7.7%) patients had aggressive or violent behaviour, including verbal aggression (n = 7), physical aggression (n = 5), and aggression against property (n = 4). Nonetheless, only 2 (12.5%) of them had been charged by the police. The weapon score was higher in violent than non-violent patients (p < 0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that the weapon score was the only significant predictor of violence. CONCLUSIONS Patients with schizophrenia with greater access to weapons were more likely to have aggressive or violent behaviour. Routine screening for access to weapons in clinical settings and adequate treatment of psychotic symptoms may reduce the incidence of aggressive or violent behaviour and violent offences.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous evidence indicated that efficacy of escitalopram (Esc) and duloxetine (Dul) was comparable in the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD). Since such studies had small sample sizes, this study purposefully applied a systematic review to determine the efficacy, acceptability, and tolerability those antidepressants in treatment of MDD. PARTICIPANTS AND METHODS The following primary databases were searched in July 2017: Scopus, PubMed, CINAHL, and Cochrane Controlled Trials Register. Any randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of Esc comparison with Dul in the treatment of MDD were included in this review. The primary efficacy of outcome was the pooled mean-changed scores of the rating scales for the standardized rating scales for depression. RESULTS A total of 1,120 randomized subjects from 3 RCTs were collected for synthesis in the present meta-analysis. The mean-changed scores of the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) and Clinical Global Impression - Severity, overall response rate by the HAMD, and remission rate by the HAMD and Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) in the Esc- and Dul-treated groups showed no significant differences. However, the mean-changed score of the MARDS, mean-end scores of Clinical Global Impression - Improvement, and overall response by the MADRS in the Esc-treated group were greater than that of the Dul-treated group. Although the overall discontinuation rate had no significant differences between the 2 groups, the discontinuation rate due to adverse events in the Esc-treated group was greater than that of the Dul-treated group. LIMITATIONS This review had limited eligible studies. CONCLUSION This review indicated the efficacy in the acute treatment of Esc vs Dul varied relying on measurements across the studies. However, the tolerability of Esc was superior to Dul in acute MDD treatment. Therefore, selection between the 2 antidepressants may depend on the tolerability of MDD patients. Due to limited included studies in this review, more large-scale and well-defined RCTs in such patients should be carried out to determine these outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various clinical trials suggested that risperidone was beneficial in the treatment of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in children and adolescents. OBJECTIVE The aim of this systematic review was to determine the efficacy, acceptability and tolerability of risperidone in the treatment of children and adolescents with ASD. DATA SOURCES The databases of Scopus, PubMed, CINAHL and Cochrane Controlled Trials Register were searched in February 2017. STUDY ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA PARTICIPANTS AND INTERVENTIONS Eligible RCTs of risperidone in the treatment of child and adolescent patients with ASD. Languages were not restricted. STUDY APPRAISAL AND SYNTHESIS METHODS The full-text versions of relevant studies were thoroughly assessed and extracted. The primary efficacy of outcome was the pooled response rate and the pooled mean changed scores of the standardized rating scales for ASD. RESULTS A total of 372 randomized subjects from seven RCTs were included in this review. In acute treatment, the pooled mean change score of the Aberrant Behavior Checklist for irritability subscale (ABC-I) and response rate for the risperidone-treated group had a greater significance than that of the placebo-treated group. In the long-term treatment, the pooled mean change score of the CARS in the risperidone-treated group was significantly greater than that in the placebo-treated group. According to the discontinuation phase, the overall pooled relapse rate of the risperidone-treated group was significantly less than that of the placebo-treated group. The rates of pooled overall discontinuation and discontinuation due to adverse events rates were not different between the two groups in acute and long-term treatments. LIMITATIONS A small study was included in the current review. CONCLUSION In relation to the current systematic review, risperidone is efficacious in the treatment of symptoms in children and adolescents with ASD. Although its acceptability is comparable to placebo, treatment with risperidone is well tolerated in children and adolescents with ASD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some studies have indicated the efficacy of quetiapine in the treatment of bipolar depression in adult patients. However, its efficacy has been not shown in child and adolescent patients. OBJECTIVE This systematic review purposefully determined the efficacy and acceptability of quetiapine in the treatment of children and adolescents with bipolar depression. DATA SOURCES A database search of EMBASE, PubMed, CINAHL, and Cochrane Controlled Trials Register was carried out in March 2016. All randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of bipolar depression in children and adolescents were considered for inclusion in this review. STUDY ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA PARTICIPANTS AND INTERVENTIONS RCTs of quetiapine in the treatment of child and adolescent patients with bipolar depression with end point outcomes were included in this study. Languages were not limited. STUDY APPRAISAL AND SYNTHESIS METHODS The full-text versions of relevant clinical studies were thoroughly examined and extracted. The primary efficacy of outcome was measured by using the pooled mean-changed scores of the rating scales for bipolar depression. However, the response and remission rates were also measured. RESULTS A total of 251 randomized patients in the three RCTs of quetiapine versus placebo in the treatment of bipolar depression for children and adolescents were eligible in this review. The pooled mean-changed score of the quetiapine-treated group was not greater than that of the placebo-treated group. Similarly, the pooled response and remission rates were not different between the two groups. The pooled overall discontinuation rate and the discontinuation rate due to adverse events were not different between the two groups. LIMITATIONS Limited studies were eligible in this review. CONCLUSION According to the findings in this review, quetiapine may not be efficacious in the treatment of bipolar depression in children and adolescents. Its acceptability, however, was comparable to a placebo. Therefore, the use of quetiapine in children and adolescents with bipolar depression is not recommended. Further well-defined clinical studies should be performed to confirm these outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Experience of lung cancer includes negative impacts on both physical and psychological health. Pain is one of the negative experiences of lung cancer. Cognitive behavioral therapy techniques are often recommended as treatments for lung cancer pain. The objective of this review was to synthesize the evidence on the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy techniques in treating lung cancer pain. This review considered studies that included lung cancer patients who were required to 1) be at least 18 years old; 2) speak and read English or Thai; 3) have a life expectancy of at least two months; 4) experience daily cancer pain requiring an opioid medication; 5) have a positive response to opioid medication; 6) have "average or usual" pain between 4 and 7 on a scale of 0-10 for the day before the clinic visit or for a typical day; and 7) able to participate in a pain evaluation and treatment program. This review considered studies to examine interventions for use in treatment of pain in lung cancer patients, including: biofeedback, cognitive/attentional distraction, imagery, hypnosis, and meditation. Any randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that examined cognitive behavioral therapy techniques for pain specifically in lung cancer patients were included. In the absence of RCTs, quasi-experimental designs were reviewed for possible conclusion in a narrative summary. Outcome measures were pain intensity before and after cognitive behavioural therapy techniques. The search strategy aimed to find both published and unpublished literature. A three-step search was utilised by using identified keywords and text term. An initial limited search of MEDLINE and CINAHL was undertaken followed by analysis of the text words contained in the title and abstract, and of the index terms used to describe the article. A second search using all the identified keywords and index terms was then undertaken across all included databases. Thirdly, the reference list of all identified reports and articles were searched for additional studies. Searches were conducted during January 1991- March 2014 limited to English and Thai languages with no date restriction. MATERIALS AND METHODS All studies that met the inclusion criteria were assessed for methodological quality by three reviewers using a standardized critical appraisal tool from the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI). Three reviewers extracted data independently, using a standardized data extraction tool from the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI). Ideally for quantitative data meta-analysis was to be conducted where all results were subject to double data entry. Odds ratios (for categorical data) and weighted mean differences (for continuous data) and their 95% confidence intervals were to be calculated for analysis and heterogeneity was to be assessed using the standard Chi-square. Where statistical pooling was not possible the finding were be presented in narrative form. RESULTS There were no studies located that met the inclusion requirements of this review. There were also no text and opinion pieces that were specific to cognitive behavioral therapy techniques pain and lung cancer patients. CONCLUSIONS There is currently no evidence available to determine the effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy techniques for pain in lung cancer patients.

Abstract
Background Some studies have indicated the efficacy of quetiapine in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Objective The purpose of this study was to systematically review the efficacy, acceptability, and tolerability of quetiapine in adult patients with GAD. Methods The SCOPUS, MEDLINE, CINAHL, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and ClinicalTrials.gov databases were searched in April 2015. All randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of GAD were considered to be included in this meta-analysis. All RCTs of quetiapine in GAD patients providing endpoint outcomes relevant to severity of anxiety, response rate, remission rate, overall discontinuation rate, or discontinuation rate due to adverse events were included. The version reports from suitable clinical studies were explored, and the important data were extracted. Measurement for efficacy outcomes consisted of the mean-changed scores of the rating scales for anxiety, and response rate. Results A total of 2,248 randomized participants in three RCTs were included. The pooled mean-changed score of the quetiapine-treated group was greater than that of the placebo-treated group and comparable to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Unfortunately, the response and the remission rates in only 50 and 150 mg/day of quetiapine-XR (extended-release) were better than those of the placebo. Their response and remission rates were comparable to SSRIs. The rates of pooled overall discontinuation and discontinuation due to adverse events of quetiapine-XR were greater than placebo. Only the overall discontinuation rate of quetiapine-XR at 50 and 150 mg/day and the discontinuation rate due to adverse events of quetiapine-XR at 50 mg/day were comparable to SSRIs. Conclusion Based on this meta-analysis, quetiapine-XR is efficacious in the treatment of GAD in adult patients. Despite its low acceptability and tolerability, the use of 50–150 mg/day quetiapine-XR for adult GAD patients may be considered as an alternative treatment. Further well-defined studies should be conducted to warrant these outcomes.

Abstract
Background Several studies have shown that lisdexamfetamine (LDX) is efficacious in children and adolescents with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Objectives Aims of this study were to systematically review the efficacy, acceptability, and tolerability of LDX in child and adolescent ADHD. Any randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of LDX versus placebo carried out in children and adolescents with ADHD were included. Data sources The searches of the SCOPUS, MEDLINE, CINAHL and Cochrane Controlled Trials Register were performed in September 2014. Additional searches in the ClinicalTrials. gov and EU Clinical Trials Register database were conducted. Study eligibility criteria, participants, and interventions This review included all RCTs of LDX versus placebo which were carried out in children and adolescents up to 18 years old. Additionally, the included studies must have reported the final outcomes of: i) severity of ADHD symptoms with standardized scales, ii) rates of improvement, iii) rates of discontinuation. To be more thorough, the languages of such RCTs were not limited. Study appraisal and synthesis methods The abstracts from databases were inspected and the full text versions of relevant trials were examined and extracted for important outcomes. The efficacious measurements included either the pooled mean end-point or changed scores of ADHD rating scales, and the rate of improvement. Acceptability and tolerability were measured by the pooled overall discontinuation rate and the pooled discontinuation rate due to adverse events, respectively. A random effect model technique was utilized to synthesize the mean differences (either standardized mean differences or weighted mean differences) and relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results A total of 1,016 children and adolescents with ADHD were included. The dosage of LDX was 30 to 70 mg/day. The pooled mean change scores of LDX-treated group was significantly greater than that of the placebo (weighted mean difference [95% CI] of −15.20 [−19.95, −10.46], I2=94%). The pooled improvement rate of the LDX-treated group was also significantly higher than that of the placebo (RR [95% CI] of 0.34 [0.24, 0.47], I2=80%). The pooled overall discontinuation rate between the two groups was not significantly different (RR [95% CI] of 0.78 [0.46, 1.31], I2=63%). Similarly, the pooled discontinuation rate due to adverse events between the two groups showed no significant difference (RR [95% CI] of 1.99 [0.70, 5.64], I2=0%). Limitations The number of included studies was limited (five RCTs). Conclusion According to the present review, LDX was effective and well-tolerated in the treatment of child and adolescent ADHD. Unfortunately, the acceptability of LDX was not better than the placebo. Since the number of included studies was limited, the outcome from this review should be carefully interpreted and considered as preliminary. Further studies, therefore, should be conducted to confirm these findings. Implication of key findings Lisdexamfetamine is an efficacious stimulant for treating child and adolescent ADHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy of dexmethylphenidate (d-MPH) has been proven in the treatment of children and adolescents with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). OBJECTIVE The aim of this systematic review is to determine the efficacy, acceptability, and tolerability of d-MPH in child and adolescent ADHD. METHODS The searches of SCOPUS, MEDLINE, CINAHL, and Cochrane Controlled Trials Register were performed in February 2015. All randomized controlled trials of d-MPH versus placebo that were performed in children and adolescents with ADHD up to 18 years of age were included in the study. The efficacy was measured by using the pooled mean-endpoint or mean-changed scores of ADHD rating scales and the response rate. Acceptability and tolerability were measured by using the pooled rates of overall discontinuation and discontinuation due to adverse events, respectively. RESULTS A total of 1,124 children and adolescents diagnosed as having ADHD were included in this review. In a laboratory school setting, the pooled mean-change and mean-endpoint scores in the d-MPH-treated group were significantly greater than those of the placebo-treated group with standardized mean difference (95% confidence interval [CI]) of -1.20 (-1.73, -0.67), I (2)=95%. Additionally, the pooled mean-changed scores of the ADHD rating scales for teachers and parents in the d-MPH-treated group were significantly greater than that of the placebo-treated group with weighted mean difference (95% CI) of -13.01 (-15.97, -10.05), I (2)=0% and (95% CI) of -12.99 (-15.57, -10.42), I (2)=0%, respectively. The pooled response rate in the d-MPH-treated groups had a significance higher than that of the placebo-treated group. The rates of pooled overall discontinuation and discontinuation due to adverse events between the two groups were not significantly different. CONCLUSION Based on the findings in this review, it can be concluded that d-MPH medication is efficacious and tolerable in child and adolescent ADHD. However, the acceptability of d-MPH is no greater than that of the placebo. Further systematic studies may confirm these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some trials have suggested that bupropion, as well as methylphenidate, is beneficial in the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). OBJECTIVES The purpose of this systematic review was to summarize the efficacy, acceptability, and tolerability of bupropion in comparison with methylphenidate for ADHD treatment. Included studies were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared bupropion and methylphenidate. Clinical studies conducted between January 1991 and January 2014 were reviewed. DATA SOURCES MEDLINE(®), EMBASE™, CINAHL, PsycINFO(®), and the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register were searched in January 2014. Additionally, clinical trials were identified from the databases of ClinicalTrials.gov and the EU Clinical Trials Register. STUDY ELIGIBLE CRITERIA PARTICIPANTS AND INTERVENTIONS All RCTs of bupropion and methylphenidate reporting final outcomes relevant to 1) ADHD severity, 2) response or remission rates, 3) overall discontinuation rate, or 4) discontinuation rate due to adverse events. Language restriction was not applied. STUDY APPRAISAL AND SYNTHESIS METHODS The relevant clinical trials were examined and the data of interest were extracted. Additionally, the risks of bias were also inspected. The efficacy outcomes were the mean changed scores of ADHD rating scales, the overall response rate, and the overall remission rates. The overall discontinuation rate and the discontinuation rate due to adverse events were determined. Relative risks and weighted mean differences or standardized mean differences with 95% confidence intervals were estimated using a random effect model. RESULTS A total of 146 subjects in four RCTs comparing bupropion with methylphenidate in the treatment of ADHD were included. The pooled mean changed scores of the Iowa-Conner's Abbreviated Parent and Teacher Questionnaires and the ADHD Rating Scale-IV for parents and teachers of children and adolescents with ADHD in the bupropion- and methylphenidate-treated groups were not significantly different. Additionally, the pooled mean changed score in adult ADHD between the two groups, measured by the ADHD Rating Scale-IV and the Adult ADHD Rating Scale, was also not significantly different. The pooled rates of response, overall discontinuation, and discontinuation due to adverse events between the two groups were not significantly different. CONCLUSION Based on limited data from this systematic review, bupropion was as effective as methylphenidate for ADHD patients. Additionally, tolerability and acceptability were also comparable. However, these findings should be considered as very preliminary results. To confirm this evidence, further studies in this area should be conducted.
