Almost a year has passed since we published our letter detailing severe errors in this meta-analysis on psychotherapy, antidepressants, and suicide.
What has happened since then? Absolutely nothing! The journal from @CambUP_Psych refuses to correct or retract the original paper.
Does combined treatment with antidepressants and psychotherapy really cause twice as many suicide attempts than psychotherapy only?
This was the conclusion of a recent meta-analysis published in Psychological Medicine. Me and @f_hieronymus took a closer look…thread below 🧵

Is psilocybin as effective for depression as it seems?
In a new meta-analysis we look at outcomes after treatment with three types of antidepressants: psilocybin, esketamine and SSRIs. Compared to their own control groups, psilocybin (ES/SMD: 0.70) is clearly more effective ->

Skriver i GP debatt idag tillsammans med kollegor från Demokraterna. Vi blir först med att ta ställning för att skrota Millennium. Hoppas på likadana ställningstaganden från övriga partier snarast.
