Economic evaluation of psychological treatments for common mental disorders in low- and middle-income countries: a systematic review

Abstract: Common mental disorders (CMDs) constitute a major public health and economic burden on low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).

“…In this context, HIV medical and public health interventions have received extensive attention in the economic evaluation literature. Losses in quality of life among PLWH due to psychosocial factors such as depression and substance use have fostered cost-bene t and cost-effectiveness analyses of behavioral interventions for PLWH [ 31,32,33 ]. Yet, contributions to economic evaluation of "public health interventions that promote health by altering the structural context within which health is produced and reproduced" [ 34 ] are modest but emerging.…”

“…While not all adolescents experiencing these symptoms meet diagnostic criteria for mood or anxiety disorders, the peak age of onset for most mental disorders is 14.5 years,10 and longitudinal evidence demonstrates that symptoms of mental health difficulties in late adolescence persist into young adulthood 11. Therefore, timely access to mental health services for adolescents experiencing mental health difficulties is critical to reducing the persistence and progression of these difficulties12 and the long-term costs associated with untreated mental disorders 13…”

“…Mental health challenges can exert profound adverse effects on the social, emotional, and academic development of adolescents, leading to issues such as learning difficulties, school dropout, relationship problems, an elevated risk of substance misuse, and even suicidal behavior (Bentley et al, 2016; Hossain et al, 2022; Patel et al, 2018; Radez et al, 2021). Addressing mental health issues in adolescents is paramount for averting these negative consequences (Reynolds et al, 2012) and curbing enduring economic burdens in the long term (Mutyambizi-Mafunda et al, 2023). Nonetheless, many adolescents with mental health problems often go unrecognized and untreated (WHO, 2021).…”
