TL;DR: To support scale-up of mental health care in Ethiopia, there is a critical need to strengthen leadership and co-ordination at the national, regional, zonal and district levels, expand indicators for routine monitoring of mental healthcare, promote service user involvement and address widespread stigma and low mental health awareness.

TL;DR: The nature and impact of depression-specific programmes in EU countries, identified using a web-based tool, were assessed to develop a framework to be used for future programmes against stigma and discrimination associated with depression.

TL;DR: Whether a full scale randomised controlled trial (RCT) is justifiable and feasible, and to optimise its design, is determined to determine whether a reduction in decisional conflict regarding disclosure leading to more effective job seeking activity is reduced.

TL;DR: The under-treatment of people with crippling mental illnesses is the most glaring case of health inequality in our country as discussed by the authors, despite the existence of cost-effective treatments, it receives only 13% of NHS health expenditure.

TL;DR: Evidence for the effectiveness of interventions to improve uptake of, and compliance with, evidence-based CPGs in LMICs for mental disorders and for other non-communicable diseases is at present limited, but the sparse literature does suggest that multifaceted CPG implementation strategies that involve an educational component may be an effective way of improving guideline adherence and therefore of improving clinical outcomes.
