サーチした研究デザインは、randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and controlled clinical trials (CCTs)
E:music therapy
C:treatment as usual (TAU), psychological therapies, pharmacological therapies, other therapies, or different forms of music therapy
O:reducing depression
we found moderate-quality evidence of large effects favouring music therapy and TAU over TAU alone for both clinician-rated depressive symptoms (SMD -0.98, 95% CI -1.69 to -0.27, 3 RCTs, 1 CCT, n = 219)and patient-reported depressive symptoms (SMD -0.85, 95% CI -1.37 to -0.34, 3 RCTs, 1 CCT, n = 142). エビデンスの質は中等度
通常療法と音楽療法の併用は、通常療法と比べて、抑うつ症状(臨床医の評価)を改善(SMD -0.98)、患者の自己報告の抑うつ症状も改善(SMD -0.85)
