This paper confirmed the impact of selective publication of trials by the drug industry, in this case upon the apparent clinical effectiveness of SSRIs in adults with depression. The review examined trials submitted to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for licensing and obtained under the Freedom of Information Act in the USA. On meta-analysis, the published trials were significantly more positive with regard to efficacy than the published and unpublished ones combined.

Whereas the FDA accepted small but statistically significant changes on depression rating scales as evidence of efficacy, the authors asked whether these changes would reach the level of clinical significance used in the development of the NICE guideline for different levels of depression at initial presentation when compared with placebo. Placebo effects, which appear to be larger for lower levels of depression at presentation, appear to minimize differences with the treatment groups except for those with the most severe depressions.
