Effects of non-pharmacological interventions on depressive and anxiety symptoms in pregnant women: a systematic review and network meta-analysis
Our findings indicate that mindfulness therapy significantly reduces the risk of depressive and anxiety symptoms in both high-risk pregnancy population and healthy populations. Therefore, when selecting non-pharmacologic therapies for managing depressive and anxiety symptoms during pregnancy, it is recommended that this therapy be considered. We cannot overlook the limitations of this study. For example, some interventions, such as muscle acupoint therapy for depressive symptoms and relaxation therapy for anxiety symptoms, have limited literature support.
