Machine learning for antidepressant treatment selection in depression.

Finding the right antidepressant for the individual patient with major depressive disorder can be a difficult endeavor and is mostly based on trial-and-error. Machine learning (ML) is a promising tool to personalize antidepressant prescription. In this review, we summarize the current evidence of ML in the selection of antidepressants and conclude that its value for clinical practice is still limited.

Transmural collaborative care model for the review of antipsychotics: a feasibility study of a complex intervention.

General practitioners (GPs) are often unaware of antipsychotic (AP)-induced cardiovascular risk (CVR) and therefore patients using atypical APs are not systematically monitored. We evaluated the feasibility of a complex intervention designed to review the use of APs and advise on CVR-lowering strategies in a transmural collaboration. A mixed methods prospective cohort study in three general practices in the Netherlands was conducted in 2021.
