Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This systematic review evaluates psychological therapies specifically for Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD) in children and adolescents, addressing a gap in diagnosis-specific evidence. The authors analyzed randomized controlled trials but found limited data quality and quantity due to high heterogeneity among the included studies. While some evidence suggests these interventions may increase remission rates compared to waitlist controls, the magnitude of efficacy remains unquantified. The resource highlights the need for further research and improved data sharing to determine optimal treatment outcomes.
