<h3>Background</h3>Psychological distress is common among mothers in low-income and middle-income countries, limiting their capacity to care for themselves and their children. This study aimed to test the feasibility and acceptability of an adapted psychosocial intervention for distressed mothers in low-resource settings.<h3>Methods</h3>In this open-label trial, we enrolled women living in Lusaka, Zambia, with high mental distress (>7 score on the 20-item Self-Reporting Questionnaire [SRQ-20]) and children younger than 2 years, who had previously enrolled in the ZamCharts early childhood nutrition trial. We randomly assigned participants (1:1) to the intervention or control group using a random number draw. The intervention was a newly developed Problem Management for Moms (PM4M) programme: a ten-session treatment adapted from Problem Management Plus, which was offered by phone or in person. After randomisation, participants in the intervention group underwent pre-intervention screening, a post-intervention assessment, and a final follow-up assessment 9 months after treatment initiation (ie, final follow-up visit). The control group was assessed at the baseline of ZamCharts and at the final follow-up assessment, and these participants did not receive any intervention. The primary study outcomes were feasibility, acceptability, and participant mental distress measured using the SRQ-20. All primary and secondary outcomes were estimated in the intention-to-treat population, which included all participants who were randomised to the intervention group and attended the final follow-up assessment. Data on ethnicity were not collected.

Forensic mental health services provide crucial interventions for society. Such services provide care for people with mental disorders who commit violent and other serious crimes, and they have a key role in the protection of the public. To achieve these goals, these services are necessarily expensive, but they have been criticised for a high-cost, low-volume approach, for lacking consistent standards of care, and for neglecting human rights and other ethical considerations. A key concern is an insufficient evidence base to justify common practices, such as restricting leave from hospital and detaining patients for long periods. There is also insufficient quality evidence for core interventions, including psychological therapies, pharmacotherapy, and seclusion and restraint. The causes for this evidence deficit are complex but include insufficient investment in research infrastructure and fragmentation and isolationism of services, both nationally and internationally. In this Personal View, we highlight some of the major gaps in the forensic mental health evidence base and the challenges in addressing these gaps. We suggest solutions with implications at clinical, societal, and public health policy levels.
