Predictors and moderators of recurring self-harm in adolescents participating in a comparative treatment trial of psychological interventions.
This study compared outcomes for treatment of adolescents who have engaged in self-harm including suicide attempts and nonsuicidal self-injury. This randomized controlled tiral compared results with dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to treatment with individual/group supportive therapy (IGST). 173 adolescents were randomized to receive 6 months of DBT or IGST. Assessments were made at baseline, midtreatment (3 months), and end of treatment at 6 months using the Suicide Attempt and Self –Injury Interview. Overall, DBT showed better rates of improvement than IGST. These was especially true of adolescents with higher levels of emotion dysregulation and parental psychopathology.

Rationale and design of the Clinic and Community Approaches to Healthy Weight Randomized Trial.
Recent studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of family-centered, pediatric weight management programs in reducing childhood obesity. Yet, programs to optimize the care of low-income children with obesity are needed. The investigators sought to examine the comparative effectiveness of two, potentially scalable pediatric weight management programs delivered to low-income children in a clinical or community setting.
