Making the most of big qualitative datasets: a living systematic review of analysis methods.

Introduction: Qualitative data provides deep insights into an individual's behaviors and beliefs, and the contextual factors that may shape these. Big qualitative data analysis is an emerging field that aims to identify trends and patterns in large qualitative datasets. The purpose of this review was to identify the methods used to analyse large bodies of qualitative data, their cited strengths and limitations and comparisons between manual and digital analysis approaches.

Feasibility of Concussion Essentials: A multimodal intervention for persisting post-concussion symptoms among children and adolescents.

This study examined the feasibility of "Concussion Essentials" (CE), an individualized, multimodal intervention for persisting post-concussion symptoms (pPCS). Thirteen 6-18 year-olds with pPCS at 1-month post-concussion, as determined by the Post Concussion Symptom Inventory - Parent Report (PCSI-P), completed education, physiotherapy, and psychology modules, for up to 8-weeks or until pPCS resolved. Intervention participants were matched to a longitudinal observational cohort who received usual care (n = 13).

Exploring perspectives on how to improve psychological treatment for women from minoritised ethnic communities: A qualitative study with service users.

Background: Women are disproportionately impacted by depression and anxiety disorders and in particular, women from minoritised ethnic communities experience inequalities in access to outcomes of psychological treatment for these disorders. Better understanding from the views of service users about the factors that impact their access to, and experiences of care could help to optimise treatment for these groups.

Method: This study explored experiences of treatment and gathered suggestions about treatment improvement, from the perspectives of women currently using psychological therapy services.
