Abstract:Postpartum depression (PPD) is a serious condition associated with potentially tragic outcomes, and in an ideal world PPDs should be prevented. Risk prediction models have been developed in psychiatry estimating an individual’s probability of developing a specific condition, and recently a few models have also emerged within the field of PPD research, although none are implemented in clinical care. For the present study we aimed to develop and validate a prediction model to assess individualized risk of PPD an… Show more
“…Postpartum depression, panic attacks, and PTSD due to their traumatic pregnancies were reported by some mothers in their blogs, which confirmed results from multiple previous research studies. 18,22,24 Using Danish population registers, Munk-Olsen et al 21 reported that HG was one of the 4 most significant predictors of postpartum depression.…”

“…Postnatally, 29% of the mothers with HG had probable depression compared to 7% of the control subjects (P = .002). Munk-Olsen et al 21 developed a prediction model for postpartum depression using data from the Danish population registers for 6402 postpartum depression cases and 2379 validation samples. HG was 1 of the 4 most significant predictors of postpartum depression.…”
Hyperemesis gravidarum can result in life-threatening physical and psychological maternal morbidity, including severe dehydration, weight loss, electrolyte imbalance, depression, and suicidal ideation. The reported prevalence of hyperemesis gravidarum ranges from 0.3% to 3.6%. The purpose of this qualitative study was to investigate what blogs can tell us about women's experiences of hyperemesis gravidarum. Thirty-three blogs written by hyperemesis gravidarum survivors posted on Hyperemesis Australia's website were analyzed using Krippendorff's qualitative content analysis method. Clustering was used and yielded 6 themes: (1) debilitating physical and mental health problems: digging deep to persevere, (2) heartbreaking choices, (3) lack of understanding and dismissed, (4) so much guilt surrounding their unborn infant, (5) it takes a village to support women with hyperemesis gravidarum, and (6) warriors and survivors: giving back. Infusion nurses are in a perfect position to provide support and compassionate care for women who are repeatedly coming to the hospital for rehydration treatment. Infusion nurses can validate women's physical and emotional struggles with hyperemesis gravidarum and help to no longer make women feel stigmatized.

“…For each comparison, we shall also look at the node split model, thus helping us to quantify comparison-specific inconsistency to estimate deficiencies in transitivity. We have identified potential effect modifiers (Table 3) from the literature [15][16][17][18] and will assess the distribution of effect modifiers to judge if the transitivity assumption holds. For those that prove to be a study-level parameter, then we plan to explore the impact of this on our network estimates by employing network meta-regression.…”

Introduction
Postpartum depression has costly consequences for the mother, baby, and society. Numerous pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions are available for the prevention and treatment of postpartum depression. To date, no attempt has been made to synthesize the evidence from comparisons of interventions both within and across these categories.
Methods
We will perform a systematic review of the literature and perform network meta-analysis of interventions to (a) prevent and (b) treat postpartum depression. This review will include studies of primiparous or multiparous women during pregnancy or within 12 months of delivery of their baby that assess either interventions initiated during pregnancy or within 1 year of childbirth. Comparators will be other eligible interventions or control conditions. The outcome of interests will be related to the antidepressant efficacy of the interventions as well as their acceptability. The published literature will be searched in Ovid MEDLINE 1946-, Embase.com 1947-, Scopus 1823-, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and ClinicalTrials.gov. The search will use a combination of standardized terms and keywords for postpartum depression, a sensitive search filter to limit for randomized controlled trials, and a librarian-created “humans” filter. The search results will be uploaded to the Covidence online systematic review platform (Veritas Health Information Ltd., Victoria, Australia) where two review team members will independently screen articles. We will extract data to include year of publication, language, country, participants (number, demographic data, eligibility criteria, psychiatric symptoms, and co-morbidities), characteristics of the intervention and control conditions, and reported outcomes. Risk of bias for each study will be assessed independently by two review authors using the RoB 2: A revised Cochrane risk of bias tool for randomized trials. Network meta-analysis will be performed using a Bayesian hierarchical model supplemented with a Markov chain Monte Carlo approach.
Discussion
Postpartum depression is a devastating disease with long-lasting consequences. Given the numerous available interventions to both prevent and treat postpartum depression and the great number of studies comparing them, it is imperative that clinicians and patients are provided with an assessment of their comparative efficacy and acceptability.

“…The existing early intervention paradigm is based on a USPSTF Grade B recommendation wherein counseling is provided to women with 1 or more established risk factors for PPD, such as a history of depression or recent intimate partner violence. 6 The current approach for identifying at-risk patients is crude at best and represents an opportunity to mobilize available technologies such as machine learning (ML) in a way that can improve health outcomes. The lack of effective screening tools is a public health issue because early interventions in at-risk people can minimize the morbidity and mortality of PPD.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
