“…The results also showed a relatively equal impact for both interventions. The findings of this study were in agreement with studies in this field (8,(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18). In recent years, non-pharmacological methods have attracted the attention of people with psychological disorders.…”

Background: The extremely high prevalence, chronicity, and high comorbidity with other mental disorders suggest that anxiety disorder imposes many expenses on individuals, families, and society, and has negative impacts on quality of life, social, and individual aspects. Methods: This quasi-experimental study utilized a pretest-posttest design with a follow-up period of three months. 30 eligible patients were selected by random sampling and assigned to two experimental (10 persons receiving unified protocol for the transdiagnostic treatment and 10 persons receiving emotion regulation intervention) and control (10 persons receiving no intervention) groups. The instrument for measuring variables was the Mood and Anxiety Symptoms Questionnaire (MASQ-D30). The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics (repeated measurements and Bonferroni post hoc test). Results: The results showed that the interventions had significant effects on anxious arousal and they were able to show therapeutic effects in the post-test stage maintained until the follow-up stage. The therapeutic effects of the interventions were slightly different, although statistically insignificant. Conclusions: The most important implication of the research is the effectiveness of the interventions. Thus, care therapists are suggested considering the relative limitations of specific treatments, avoiding the multiple treatment guidelines, and paying attention to the privilege of these approaches such as the applicability for a wide range of disorders and ability to easy learning. Thus, they would find these treatments effective in this area.

Transdiagnostic psychiatry: a systematic review

et al. 2019

The usefulness of current psychiatric classification, which is based on ICD/DSM categorical diagnoses, remains questionable. A promising alternative has been put forward as the "transdiagnostic" approach. This is expected to cut across existing categorical diagnoses and go beyond them, to improve the way we classify and treat mental disorders. This systematic review explores whether self-defining transdiagnostic research meets such high expectations. A multi-step Web of Science literature search was performed according to an a priori protocol, to identify all studies that used the word "transdiagnostic" in their title, up to May 5, 2018. Empirical variables which indexed core characteristics were extracted, complemented by a bibliometric and conceptual analysis. A total of 111 studies were included. Most studies were investigating interventions, followed by cognition and psychological processes, and neuroscientific topics. Their samples ranged from 15 to 91,199 (median 148) participants, with a mean age from 10 to more than 60 (median 33) years. There were several methodological inconsistencies relating to the definition of the gold standard (DSM/ICD diagnoses), of the outcome measures and of the transdiagnostic approach. The quality of the studies was generally low and only a few findings were externally replicated. The majority of studies tested transdiagnostic features cutting across different diagnoses, and only a few tested new classification systems beyond the existing diagnoses. About one fifth of the studies were not transdiagnostic at all, because they investigated symptoms and not disorders, a single disorder, or because there was no diagnostic information. The bibliometric analysis revealed that transdiagnostic research largely restricted its focus to anxiety and depressive disorders. The conceptual analysis showed that transdiagnostic research is grounded more on rediscoveries than on true innovations, and that it is affected by some conceptual biases. To date, transdiagnostic approaches have not delivered a credible paradigm shift that can impact classification and clinical care. Practical "TRANSD"iagnostic recommendations are proposed here to guide future research in this field.

“…Comorbidity with other mental health disorders frequently occurs in MDD, especially with anxiety disorders. Patients with MDD may develop other mental disorders over the course of the illness, in the same way that a depressive episode may appear in people suffering from other conditions (Talkovsky, Green, Osegueda, & Norton, 2017). Also, different mental disorders may have some pathogenic mechanisms in common (Mathew, Pettit, Lewinsohn, Seeley, & Roberts, 2011; McTeague et al, 2017).…”
