From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
In a recent systematic review and component network meta-analysis published in JAMA Psychiatry we aimed at identifying which psychosocial interventions are associated with an improved course and medium-term outcomes of bipolar disorder. This study suggests that outpatients with bipolar disorder receiving pharmacotherapy should also be offered psychosocial treatments that emphasize illness management strategies and enhance coping skills; delivering these components in family or group format may be especially advantageous. In this seminar, after summarizing the study led by David Miklowitz, I will also discuss some of the common difficulties one would encounter when conducting (i) meta-analyses of psychotherapies and (ii) component network meta-analyses.
Chair: Professor John Geddes
