Efficacy of integrated physical and psychological interventions on PTSD among forcibly displaced persons: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: Forcibly displaced persons (FDPs) exposed to torture and trauma require multidisciplinary therapies to address their complex needs in mental and physical health. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we explored the efficacy of models of care that integrated psychological and physical interventions for PTSD outcomes. We searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsychINFO, and Web of Science databases. We performed the meta-analysis on studies with randomized controlled trials and non-randomized controlled trial designs, followed by a subgroup analysis of moderators. In all meta-analyses, a random-effects model was used with standardized mean differences to accommodate for the heterogeneity of studies
