assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

Exercise-Based Cardiac Rehabilitation Programs for Coronary Artery Disease A Systematic Clinical and Economic Review

Technology Report

Issue 34 March 2003

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

assessment From these 99 articles 5 new EX CR trials and 5 new CCR trials were included in our review The 10 new trials are more recent than those included in the Cochrane review which included 36 trials That brings the total number of trials analysed in our meta-analysis to 46 The clinical meta-analysis found that CCR showed a trend toward reduction in total mortality although this was not statistically significant (RR 087 95 CI 074 to 102) However cardiac mortality was reduced (RR 080 95 CI 065 to 099) EX CR reduced total mortality (RR 076 95 CI 059 to 098) and reduced cardiac mortality (RR 073 95 CI 056 to 096) Health related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes were not pooled but there was evidence of a consistent improvement in HRQoL across the nine trials reporting this outcome although few studies showed improvement above that measured in the usual care groups Meta-regression analysis failed to demonstrate the presence of any significant sub-group effects Sub-groups analysed included EX CR or CCR duration of program intensity of program follow-up period all post MI or other than just MI patients gender age trials pre- or post-1995 and quality of trials In the review of economic evidence 614 potentially relevant studies were found Of these 64 were retrieved for full text assessment and 6 were ultimately included in the review Three were full economic evaluations and 3 were cost studies Only 1 included study was RCT-based It was an economic evaluation located in Canada and concluded that an eight-week supervised exercise plus counselling program cost US$9200 per QALY and US$21800 per life-year gained during the year of follow-up Another Canadian-based economic evaluation found that it costs less than US$15000 per year of life saved for a supervised CR program for men A US study found that it cost US$4950 per year of life saved through CR The cost studies based in Sweden and the US concluded that CR may be cost saving compared to standard care for patients with CAD due to lower rehospitalization rates and lower mean patient costs Conclusions The systematic review of clinical evidence supports the findings of the previous Cochrane review in that CR which includes exercise has beneficial effects on cardiac mortality and total mortality (although the trend for CCR on total mortality was not significant) It appears that CCR has a somewhat more positive effect overall on risk factors than EX CR Few studies have examined the impact of CR on HRQoL and in those that have there was a non-significant trend that CR which includes exercise enhances quality of life relative to usual care Although recent trials have increasingly recruited patients who have had revascularization or angina the representation of women and the elderly in the trials remains poor The long-term (ie 10 years or more) mortality benefit of CR tends to diminish This may be associated with a reduction in exercise behaviour The results of the included economic studies were consistent in that the three full economic evaluations all suggested CR which includes exercise is cost-effective and the three cost studies all suggested CR which includes exercise may reduce costs to health care systems due to reduced rehospitalization and drug utilization Although the cost studies suggest that over time cost savings would result from switching to CR from standard care in the short term there would likely be a significant budget impact For example at an average cost of C$1000 per patient making supervised cardiac rehabilitation standard practice for Canadian CAD patients could increase short run annual expenditures in Canada by C$225 million

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Bipolar disorder is a common debilitating illness characterised by acute affective episodes with full or partial inter-episode remission Effective and acceptable treatment of acute episodes is required Valproate has become a leading adjunctive and alternative mood stabilising treatment to lithium in bipolar disorder

Objectives To determine the efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of acute episodes of bipolar disorder

Search strategy The search included the Cochrane Collaboration Depression Anxiety and Neurosis Controlled Trials Registrar (CCDANCTR) the Cochrane Controlled Clinical Trials Register (CCTR) reference lists of relevant papers and books and contact with authors of trials experts and pharmaceutical companies

Selection criteria Randomised controlled trials comparing valproate with placebo other mood stabilisers and antipsychotic medication in the treatment of any bipolar affective episode Participants were of both sexes of all ages with a diagnosis of bipolar affective disorder approximating to ICD 10 Code F31and DSM IV 296

Data collection and analysis Methodological quality was assessed independently by two reviewers blind to the authorship and source of papers

Ten randomised controlled trials were found comparing valproate with other interventions in mania None was found examining its use in depression or mixed affective episodes Data were extracted on the main outcome failure to respond by the end of the study assessed by a less than 50 reduction in the Young Mania Rating Scale or the SADS-S mania scale Three trials (316 participants) compared valproate with placebo Three trials (158 participants) compared valproate with lithium Two trials (363 participants) compared valproate with olanzapine One trial (36 participants) compared valproate with haloperidol Two trials (59 patients) compared valproate with carbamazepine

Acceptability of treatment was estimated using the outcome measure total number of subjects withdrawing from the study Three trials (321 patients) contributed to the comparison between valproate and placebo two studies (144 patients) contributed to the comparison with lithium One study (30 patients) provided data on this outcome in the comparison between valproate and carbamazepine Pooled relative risks (with 95 confidence intervals) were calculated using fixed effect approaches

Main results Valproate was more efficacious than placebo (RRR 38 RR 062

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

95 CI 051 to 077) in the treatment of mania There was no significant difference between valproate and lithium (RRI 5 RR 105 95 CI 074-150) or between valproate and carbamazepine (RRR 34 RR 066 95 CI 038 to 116) Valproate was less effective than olanzapine (failure to achieve clinical response RRI 25 RR 125 95 CI 101 to 154 average of 28 point less change on the Mania Rating Scale (95 CI 083 to 479) There were no significant differences in acceptability as measured by total number of subjects withdrawing from the study There were significant differences in the side effect profiles of valproate and olanzapine with more sedation and weight gain on olanzapine

Reviewers conclusions There is consistent if limited evidence to suggest that valproate is an efficacious treatment for acute mania Valproate may be less effective than olanzapine but may cause less sedation and weight gain More well designed randomised controlled trials investigating the relative efficacy and acceptability of valproate in the treatment of the full range of acute affective episodes occurring in bipolar disorder are required

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion

A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 18 November 2002 Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary

Background Constraints on resources and time often render treatments for anxiety such as psychological interventions impracticable while synthetic anxiolytic drugs are effective but are often burdened with adverse events Options which are effective and safe would be of considerable interest and a welcome addition to the therapeutic repertoire

Objectives To assess the effectiveness and safety as reported in rigorous clinical trials of kava extract compared with placebo for treating anxiety

Search strategy All publications describing (or which might describe) randomised double-blind placebo-controlled trials of kava extract for anxiety were sought through electronic searches on EMBASE MEDLINE AMED (British Library) CISCOM (Research Council for Complementary Medicine London) CentralCCTR and CCDANCTR The search terms that were used were kava kawa kavain Piper methysticum and Rauschpfeffer (German common name for Piper methysticum) Additionally manufacturers of kava preparations and experts on the subject were contacted and asked to contribute published and unpublished material Hand-searches of relevant medical journals (Erfahrungsheilkunde 1996 - 2002 Forsch Komplementaumlrmed Klass Naturheilkd 1994 - 2002 Phytomed 1994 - 2002 Alt Comp Ther 1995 - 2002) conference proceedings (eg FACT - Focus on Alternative and Complementary Therapies 1996 - 2002) and our own files were conducted The searches were updated to August 2002 No restrictions regarding the language of publication were imposed

Selection criteria To be included studies were required to be randomised controlled trials (RCTs) ie trials with a randomised generation of allocation sequences and conducted placebo-controlled and double-blind ie trials with blinding of patients and care providers Trials using oral preparations containing kava extract as the only component (mono-preparation) were considered Trials using single constituents of kava extract alone assessing kava extract as one of several active components in a combination preparation or as a part of a combination therapy were excluded

Data collection and analysis Data were extracted systematically according to patient characteristics interventions and results Methodological quality of all trials was evaluated using the standard scoring system developed by Jadad and colleagues The screening of studies selection data extraction validation and the assessment of methodological quality were performed independently by the two reviewers Disagreements in the evaluation of individual trials were resolved through discussion
