Trial protocol

Lifestyle interventions for weight management in patients with serious mental illness: A systematic review, meta-analysis and meta-regression analysis exploring the moderators and mediators of treatment effects

Background

Schizophrenia is a severe and life shortening disease, with life expectancy being reduced by up to 20 years for males and 15 years for females compared to the general population.1 About 60% of the excess mortality is due to physical illness, with cardiovascular disease being the single largest cause of death.2 The unhealthy lifestyle of patients with schizophrenia is a modifiable factor contributing to the high risk of cardiovascular disease3. Indeed, recent randomized clinical trials4–6 have succeeded in initiating weight loss through individual health promotion, leading to a number of reviews7, guidelines8,9 and meta-analyses10–12 concluding that lifestyle interventions for patients with SMI can now be called evidence-based practice. We fully recognize the urgent need for action, but we have concerns about high degree of heterogeneity and the real-world effectiveness of these interventions. To prevent premature recommendations, it is important to be aware of the different moderators and mediators of efficacy of healthy lifestyle interventions for patients with SMI. These will be explored in this analysis, with special focus on internal validity measured as risk of bias, and external validity measured as effectiveness in the real world as opposed to efficacy.

The quality, or risk of bias, can be assessed with several tools. Methodological studies show that trials with unclear or inadequate methodological quality regarding bias domains may be associated with bias (systematic error, the overestimation of benefits, and the underestimation of harms) when compared to trials using adequate methodology.13–15

The ability to address real-world effectiveness can be assessed using rating scales to quantify to which degree the design is pragmatic.16,17 RCTs can be categorized as explanatory (exploring efficacy) or pragmatic (exploring effectiveness), neither being intrinsically superior to the other, but answering different research questions. The explanatory trial investigates a potential causal mechanism under highly controlled settings, answering the question “Can this work?”, while the pragmatic trial investigates whether an intervention is feasible in a real-world setting, answering the question “Will this work?”. Most trials exist on a continuum between these two extremities. A clearly defined research question is crucial in planning a clinical trial, but similarly important in planning meta-analyses, as pooling all RCTs could be misleading due to heterogeneity in trial design.

Equally important questions are “In whom will this work?” and “What part of these complex interventions works?” To answer these questions, an exploratory approach to characteristics of populations and interventions is desired to identify leads for defining design that are associated with greater benefits or harms.

2

Behavioural interventions addressing lifestyle in patients with SMI need special considerations. The composition of the sample results from exclusion/inclusion criteria and the process of recruitment. Patients with severe symptoms of SMI, substance abuse, unstable medication and comorbid medical disorder, are often excluded, resulting in limited external validity. Furthermore, individuals volunteering to behavioural trials are likely to be more motivated and well functioning than the clinical population as a whole. Behavioural interventions are defined as interventions designed to affect the actions a person takes regarding health. Financial resources and human engagement in clinical trials will often exceed possibilities in clinical settings, enabling interventions that are not transferable to real world. Based on these considerations, explanatory trials are more likely to report positive results.

Aim and hypotheses

We aim to summarize the effect of non-pharmacologic weight loss and healthy lifestyle interventions compared to a randomized control condition in the severely mentally ill. We further aim to investigate moderators and mediators of treatment effects, including trial design, patient and intervention characteristics, with a particular focus of efficacy versus effectiveness trials and study bias/quality.

Based on prior literature, we hypothesized that healthy lifestyle interventions can be successful in reducing body weight and improving metabolic status in the severely mentally ill. However, we further hypothesized that the overall effect size will be modest and that the effect size is diminished in trials with a pragmatic as opposed to explanatory design, as well as trials with less bias as opposed to trials with high risk of bias.

Methods/designDesign

Systematic review and meta-analysis with sensitivity, subgroup and meta-regression analyses.

Search strategy

The search will be conducted in the following electronic databases: CENTRAL, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Science Citation Index (Web of Science), using MeSH terms or similar when possible. Search terms will include the following:

Schizophrenia or schizophrenic or psychotic or schizoaffective disorder or serious mental illness or major depression or severe mental disorder or bipolar disorder or mania or severe mental illness

AND

3

Weight or weight loss or weight management or weight gain or BMI or body mass index or weight reduction or cardiovascular risk or obesity or abdominal obesity

AND

Lifestyle intervention or health promotion or physical activity or exercise or diet or nutrition

AND

Random or randomized or randomly

Additional Sources: reference lists of relevant reviews and included studies

Search Date: From database inception to September 2016

Inclusion criteria

Participants should be diagnosed with major depression, schizophrenia, schizoaffective psychosis or bipolar disorder

Participants aged >17 years of both sexes. Individual lifestyle interventions, defined as interventions designed to affect the action a person takes

regarding health from an individual level: Interventions to manage weight include efforts to modify energy balance through improved diet or

increased physical activity or both. The approaches might include elements theoretically founded techniques to modify behavior, like psychoeducation, psychological counseling, motivational interviewing, stages of change or cognitive therapy

Studies of lifestyle interventions for weight loss can be delivered across any type of setting, including community settings, mental health settings or primary care settings

Randomized clinical trials. Allocation is perceived as randomized when terms including ‘randomly’, ‘random’, and ‘randomization’ are used.

No restriction with regards to type of publication (that is, we will include abstracts and full text reports). No restriction with regards to language (that is, we will translate foreign language articles) The trials had to allocate participants to a lifestyle intervention versus a concurrent control group or using

lifestyle intervention as an add-on to treatment as usual. Reporting on either weight gain prevention or weight loss

Exclusion criteria

Trials investigating the effect of structural or environmental modifications Trials using combination of lifestyle interventions and any pharmacological agents

Outcomes

The two primary questions to be answered in this meta-analysis are:

1. Does lifestyle interventions work to manage weight, and is the effect clinically significant and sustainable?2. Are there any adverse effects?

Thus the two primary outcomes are 1) weight measured on a continuous scale and as number needed to treat (NNT) to reach clinically significant effect on weight (≥5%) using results immediately post intervention and follow up; 2) adverse events: self-reported (such as perceived health, quality of life) and weight gain. Secondary outcomes are1) systolic blood pressure; 2) hemoglobin A1c; 3) total cholesterol 4) waist circumference. Exploratory outcomes includes the analyses of mediators and moderators answering the following questions:

Can this work (internal validity)?

Will this work (external validity)?

For whom will it work (population characteristics)?

What kind of interventions will work (intervention characteristics)?

Is the effect sustainable?

1. Internal validitya. risk of bias (high vs low as per Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool)b. data analysis (Intent-to-treat, i.e., last-observation-carried-forward or mixed models, vs observed

cases analyses

2. External validitya. study origin (Europe, vs North-America vs Asia vs rest)b. % drop out in intervention vs control conditionsc. high vs low explanatory /pragmatic design (ASPECT-R score)

3. Population characteristicsa. Mean ageb. Gender distributionc. Diagnosesd. Baseline weighte. Illness durationf. Global assessment functioningg. Negative symptomsh.

4. Interventions characteristicsa. Durationb. Number of attended sessionsc. Intervention modality (exercise, diet or both)d. Intervention setting (group vs individual vs mixed group and individual treatment)e. Program fidelity (number of sessions attended)f. Maintenance effect

Study selection

Two investigators (HS + KBJ) will independently examine titles and abstracts to remove obviously irrelevant reports. Two investigators (HS + KBJ) will examine the remaining full text reports to identify eligible studies. Any disagreement in the initial search and full text review process will be resolved by consensus or discussion with CH or JK. The final list of included studies will be reviewed independently by all researchers (HS, xx, xx,) to ensure consensus.

Data extraction

Two authors (HS, ASJ) will independently extract data, using pre-piloted forms and ASPECT-R working sheets. Any discrepancies in the data extraction or inclusion/exclusion of trials will be resolved by referring to the original papers. CH or JK will assist as adjudicators in case of disagreement. The authors have previously published trial reports assessing the effect of lifestyle counseling. To avoid academic bias, a third assessor (xx) will perform the assessment of bias and design for this trial.

Risk of bias assessment

Methodological studies have shown that trials with unclear or inadequate methodological quality regarding bias domains may be associated with bias (systematic error, the overestimation of benefits, and the underestimation of harms) compared to trials using adequate methodology.13–15 Definitions in the assessment of bias risk of a trial18 will be used according to the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions including the following domains: allocation sequence generation, allocation concealment, blinding of participants and personnel, blinding of outcome assessors, incomplete outcome data, selective outcome reporting, for-profit bias, and other bias. Trials with low risk of bias in all domains are characterized as low risk. However, as lifestyle trials do not have the opportunity to blind participants and personnel, we defined that trials with low risk of bias in the domains of allocation concealment, blinding of outcome assessors and intention-to-treat will be characterized as trials with ‘lower risk of bias. To be conservative, trials with no report on any of these three domains will be characterized as high risk.

Aspect-R

The ASPECT-R (A Study Pragmatic-Explanatory Characterization Tool-Rating; ©2014 Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc.), assessing six domains that are specifically related to the explanatory-pragmatic spectrum, was developed to permit post-hoc evaluation of these domains in published RCTs.19–21 The six domains covered with ASPECT-R, are i) eligibility criteria ii) intervention flexibility iii) practice setting/practitioner experience iv) follow up intensity/duration v) outcome(s) vi) participant compliance assessment. The authors have provided definitions of terminology and descriptive anchors for each of the six domains. The domains are rated from 0 to 6, where 0 is considered extremely explanatory and 6 extremely pragmatic. Using an Excel®-based file with cover page cells for entry of the study

6

objective(s) and study population of interest, the ASPECT-R instrument has individual domain-related worksheets where the user rates each of the six domains. Each of the six domain worksheets has a section provided for the user to summarize and record the rationale for their domain scoring.

Data synthesis and analysis

This meta-analysis will be conducted using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis V3 (http://www.meta-analysis.com).

In order to pool results from studies reporting either body weight or BMI related outcomes, estimates of standardized mean difference (SMD) for each individual study will be carried out. SMD is the mean difference in weight between the healthy lifestyle intervention and control groups dived by the pooled standard deviation. The result is a unitless effect size measure. By convention, SMD effect sizes of 0.2, 0.5, and 0.8 are considered small, medium, and large, respectively.22 For the calculations, we will use either change from baseline to endpoint (preferred) or endpoint scores (only preferred if change score results were skewed, i.e., SD >twice the mean). Additionally, weighted mean difference (WMD) will calculated for weight change in kilograms (kg) and BMI (kg/m2) to generate clinically intuitive results. If long term follow up is reported, these will be used in subgroup analyses. For dichotomous variables, we will calculate the relative risks with a 95% confidence interval. Intention-to-treat (ITT) data will always be preferred, but observed cases (OC) data will also allowed. Results from random-effects analyses23 will be used throughout.

The degree of heterogeneity will be quantified using the I-squared statistic24 and the chi-square test of homogeneity) with I-squared >50% may represent substantial heterogeneity, and >75% may represent considerable heterogeneity. Heterogeneity will be explored by analysis of sub-groups and meta-regression.

Publication bias will be assessed by visual inspection of a funnel plot and by Egger’s test.25

Subgroup analyses and meta-regression

The possible effects of a number of variables on the primary outcome is categorized as exploratory outcomes. These will be explored in subgroup analyses for categorical variables and meta-regression for continuous variables.
