Meta Analysis
Prescriber adherence to guidelines for chronic noncancer pain management with opioids: Systematic review and meta-analysis.
This review quantified prescriber adherence to opioid prescribing guidelines for chronic noncancer pain (CNCP). ⋯ Adherence to guideline recommendations for opioids for CNCP is low. It is unclear whether nonadherence reflects thoughtful deviations in care. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved).

Review Meta Analysis
Biased interpretation of ambiguous information in patients with chronic pain: A systematic review and meta-analysis of current studies.
The aim of this review is to provide a synthesis of studies exploring biased interpretation of ambiguous information in individuals with chronic pain, and to meta-analyze the results of studies comparing individuals with chronic pain to pain-free controls. ⋯ Individuals with chronic pain demonstrate biased interpretation of ambiguous information favoring pain-related/illness-related interpretations. A number of important methodological limitations are apparent however, including potential sources of bias in the classification of participant responses in some paradigms. Further research adopting more rigorous methodology is therefore required. Another area for future research is investigation into how different forms of cognitive bias (i.e., attentional, interpretation, and memory biases) interact with one another in chronic pain patients.

Review Meta Analysis
Effective behavior change techniques in asthma self-care interventions: systematic review and meta-regression.
The purpose of this study is to update previous systematic reviews of interventions targeting asthma self-care in adults with asthma, and to use meta-regression to examine the association between the use of specific behavior change techniques and intervention effectiveness. ⋯ Interventions targeting asthma self-care are effective. Active involvement of participants is associated with increased intervention effectiveness, but the use of stress management techniques may be counterproductive. Taxonomy-based systematic reviews using meta-regression have potential for identifying techniques associated with increased effectiveness in behavioral interventions.
