There is one clinical trial.
The current refugee crisis across the Middle East and Europe has large effects on individual refugees' psychological well-being, as well as on the healthcare systems of countries hosting refugees. For example, in Switzerland patients sometimes have to wait up to 12 months for the specific psychological treatment due to a lack of specialists. To address this problem the WHO has developed Problem Management Plus (PM+), a brief (five sessions), low-intensity psychological intervention, delivered by paraprofessionals, that addresses common mental disorders in people in communities affected by adversity. The effectiveness and implementation of PM+ has never been examined in Switzerland before, this is the aim of the current randomized controlled trial.
Description: Change of psychological distress measured with the Hopkins Symptom Checklist (HSCL-25) serves as primary beneficiary-related health outcome. The 25 items are rated on a scale from 1 to 4. Higher scores indicate more pronounced symptom severity.
Measure: Change in psychological distress Time: Baseline assessment, 1 week post-intervention assessment (6 weeks after baseline), 3 month post-intervention assessment (4-4.5 months after baseline), 12 month post intervention assessmentDescription: Change in posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms measured with the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5). Responses are scored on a scale from 0 to 4 with higher scores indicating more pronounced symptom severity.
Measure: Change in posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms Time: Baseline assessment, 1 week post-intervention assessment (6 weeks after baseline), 3 month post-intervention assessment (4-4.5 months after baseline), 12 month post intervention assessmentDescription: Change in functional disability measured with the WHO Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0). The items are rated on a scale from 1 to 5. Higher scores indicate more pronounced functional disability.
Measure: Change in functional disability Time: Screening, 1 week post-intervention assessment (6 weeks after baseline), 3 month post-intervention assessment (4-4.5 months after baseline), 12 month post intervention assessmentDescription: Assessment of change in self-reported problems measured with the PSYCHLOPS. The Psychological Outcomes Profiles (PSYCHLOPS) scale is a patient-generated outcome measure, serving as an indicator of change in response to therapy. Items are rated on a scale from 1 to 5 (respectively 1 - 7) with lower scores indicating greater improvement in self reported problems.
Measure: Assessment of change in self-reported problems Time: Baseline assessment, 1 week post-intervention assessment (6 weeks after baseline), 3 month post-intervention assessment (4-4.5 months after baseline), 12 month post intervention assessmentDescription: Exposure to traumatic events will be assessed using the Traumatic Events (TE) - a combination of two standardized questionnaires, namely the Life Events Checklist and the Harvard Trauma Questionnaire.
Measure: Exposure to traumatic events Time: Measured at baseline assessment and 12-months follow up onlyDescription: Changes in post-migration stressors will be assessed using a version of the Post-Migration Living Difficulties Checklist (PMLDC). Items are rated on a scale from 0 to 4 with lower scores representing fewer post-migration stressors.
Measure: Reduction of post-migration stressors Time: Baseline assessment, 1 week post-intervention assessment (6 weeks after baseline), 3 month post-intervention assessment (4-4.5 months after baseline), 12 month post intervention assessmentDescription: Somatization and somatic symptoms will be assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-15 (PHQ-15). Items are rated on a scale from 1 to 3. Higher scores indicate higher symptom severity.
Measure: Somatization and somatic symptoms Time: Baseline assessment, 1 week post-intervention assessment (6 weeks after baseline), 3 month post-intervention assessment (4-4.5 months after baseline), 12 month post intervention assessmentDescription: Level of integration will be measured using the Immigration Policy Lab Integration Index (IPL-12).
Measure: Level of integration Time: Screening, 1 week post-intervention assessment (6 weeks after baseline), 3 month post-intervention assessment (4-4.5 months after baseline), 12 month post intervention assessmentDescription: General Self-Efficacy will be assessed using a short form of the General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSE-6). Reponses are given on a scale from 1 to 4 with higher scores representing higher general self-efficacy.
Measure: General Self-Efficacy Time: Baseline assessment, 1 week post-intervention assessment (6 weeks after baseline), 3 month post-intervention assessment (4-4.5 months after baseline), 12 month post intervention assessmentDescription: Attitudes towards mental health will be measured with with a set of selected questions (e.g. "Mentally ill people tend to be violent").This questionnaire has been used with Syrian refugees in previous research.
Measure: Attitudes towards mental health Time: Baseline assessment, 1 week post-intervention assessment (6 weeks after baseline), 3 month post-intervention assessment (4-4.5 months after baseline), 12 month post intervention assessmentDescription: The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will be assessed with a set of selected questions regarding medical state, psychological state, financial situation and resources (own questionnaire).
Measure: Impact of COVID-19 pandemic Time: Baseline assessment, 1 week post-intervention assessment (6 weeks after baseline), 3 month post-intervention assessment (4-4.5 months after baseline), 12 month post intervention assessmentDescription: The Client Service Receipt Inventory (CSRI) was developed for the collection of data on service utilization and related characteristics of people with mental disorders, as the basis for calculating the costs of care for mental health cost-effectiveness research.
Measure: Cost of Care Time: Baseline assessment, 1 week post-intervention assessment (6 weeks after baseline), 3 month post-intervention assessment (4-4.5 months after baseline), 12 month post intervention assessmentDescription: A set of question regarding previous contact with the mental health care services and the previous experiences regarding the utilization of any forms of mental support (own questionnaire).
Measure: Access to health care services Time: Baseline assessmentDescription: The outcome is measured with a nine-item scale that was developed to assess the extent to which the participants perceives that they use the specific strategies, which are trained during the study intervention. The items are rated on a scale from 0 to 4. Higher scores represent greater usage of the strategies.
Measure: Assessing the extent to which the strategies taught in PM+ are used before and after the study participation with the Reducing Tension Checklist Time: Baseline assessment, 1 week post-intervention assessment (6 weeks after baseline), 3 month post-intervention assessment (4-4.5 months after baseline), 12 month post intervention assessment.Alphabetical listing of all HPO terms.

Data processed on September 26, 2020.
An HTML report was created for each of the unique drugs, MeSH, and HPO terms associated with COVID-19 clinical trials. Each report contains a list of either the drug, the MeSH terms, or the HPO terms. All of the terms in a category are displayed on the left-hand side of the report to enable easy navigation, and the reports contain a list of correlated drugs, MeSH, and HPO terms. Further, all reports contain the details of the clinical trials in which the term is referenced. Every clinical trial report shows the mapped HPO and MeSH terms, which are also hyperlinked. Related HPO terms, with their associated genes, protein mutations, and SNPs are also referenced in the report.
