⚠️ How do we know if a certain treatment really works? Much health information available online is unreliable, and it’s important for everyone to develop critical thinking skills to help evaluate claims and make evidence informed decisions. We’re sharing some resources developed by Iberoamerican Cochrane Center highlighting key concepts of critical thinking in health. 👉 Key concept 5: Expert opinions are not always reliable

Family‐based interventions versus standard care for people with schizophrenia: https://lnkd.in/d7J3iqqk #healthevidence #integrativehealth
Family‐based interventions versus standard care for people with schizophrenia. 🤗 #Family plays a key role in caring for relatives, which in turn probably contributes to high levels of distress and burdens for the family, potentially increasing the risk of relapse in patients. Family interventions focus on improving the families’ knowledge, emotions, behaviours, and the overall family environment, thereby benefiting family well‐being and management of patients' symptoms. Despite concerns about privacy and burdening their families, most people with #schizophrenia consent to have their families involved in their care. 📚 🔍 This #SystematicReview looked at the evidence from 26 RCTs in this review, with 1985 people with schizophrenia or schizophrenia‐like disorders, and 2056 family members. Most family‐based interventions were conducted on a weekly or biweekly basis, with duration ranging from five weeks to two years. Key messages • Family interventions may reduce relapse in individuals with schizophrenia. • Family interventions probably reduce #caregiver burden and may improve expressed emotion (i.e. adverse family environment including family relationships and interaction patterns) in families of individuals with schizophrenia. • Additional studies are needed to allow any strong conclusions about family interventions for people with schizophrenia and their families. 🚩 Future large and well‐designed RCTs are needed to provide more reliable evaluation of effects of family interventions in people with schizophrenia or schizophrenia‐like disorders and their families. 🤓 Read the full #CochraneReview and #PlainLanguage summary https://lnkd.in/gwhihwSj Chien WT, Ma DC, Bressington D, Mou H.
