Cognitive behavioural treatment for mild Alzheimer's patients and their caregivers (CBTAC): results of a randomised controlled trial.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a multicomponent psychotherapy programme for people with mild Alzheimer's dementia (AD) and their caregivers on depression and related neuropsychiatric symptoms.
Method: The cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)-based treatment consisted of 25 weekly sessions, including behavioural activation, behaviour management, interventions for the caregiver, reminiscence, couples counselling, and cognitive restructuring. 41 participants and their caregivers were randomised to either the CBT or the control group, which received treatment-as-usual (TAU). Follow-ups took place at 6 and 12 months posttreatment. The primary outcome was depression in the patient with AD. The secondary outcomes were apathy, other neuropsychiatric symptoms, functional abilities, quality of life, and quality of the relationship with the caregiver.
Results: Linear mixed models revealed a statistically significant superiority of CBT regarding clinician-rated depression at the 12-month follow-up with large effect sizes (within-subject d = 1.22, between-subject d = 1.00). Effect sizes were only moderate for self-rated depression and small for informant-rated depression. There was also a significant advantage for CBT regarding clinician-rated apathy, relationship quality, and informant-rated quality of life (QoL) but not for the other neuropsychiatric symptoms or self-rated QoL.
Conclusion: The results are very encouraging and support an adequately powered multicentre study.

期刊介绍:
Aging & Mental Health provides a leading international forum for the rapidly expanding field which investigates the relationship between the aging process and mental health. The journal addresses the mental changes associated with normal and abnormal or pathological aging, as well as the psychological and psychiatric problems of the aging population. The journal also has a strong commitment to interdisciplinary and innovative approaches that explore new topics and methods.
Aging & Mental Health covers the biological, psychological and social aspects of aging as they relate to mental health. In particular it encourages an integrated approach for examining various biopsychosocial processes and etiological factors associated with psychological changes in the elderly. It also emphasizes the various strategies, therapies and services which may be directed at improving the mental health of the elderly and their families. In this way the journal promotes a strong alliance among the theoretical, experimental and applied sciences across a range of issues affecting mental health and aging. The emphasis of the journal is on rigorous quantitative, and qualitative, research and, high quality innovative studies on emerging topics.
