Author: VasiliuOctavian

Systematic ReviewA review that systematically collects, evaluates, and integrates relevant research to answer a specific research question.

Overview

Current treatments for depression are often not effective, with a large percentage of people not improving even after trying multiple antidepressants. New treatment options are needed, as are a better understanding of the causes of depression.
