Background: Evidence regarding the efficacy of psychotherapy in adolescents with borderline personality disorder (BPD) symptomatology has not been previously synthesized. Objective: To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in order to assess the efficacy of psychotherapies in adolescents with BPD symptomatology. Methods: Seven electronic databases were systematically searched using the search terms BPD, adolescent, and psychotherapy from database inception to July 2019. Titles/abstracts and full-texts were screened by one reviewer; discrepancies were resolved via consensus. We extracted data on BPD symptomatology, including BPD symptoms, suicide attempts, nonsuicidal self-injury, general psychopathology, functional recovery, and treatment retention. Data were pooled using random-effects models. Results: Of 536 papers, seven trials (643 participants) were eligible. Psychotherapy led to significant short-term improvements in BPD symptomatology posttreatment ( g = −0.89 [−1.75, −0.02]) but not in follow-up ( g = 0.06 [−0.26, 0.39]). There was no significant difference in treatment retention between the experimental and control groups overall (odds ratio [ OR] 1.02, 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.92 to 1.12, I 2 = 52%). Psychotherapy reduced the frequency of nonsuicidal self-injury ( OR = 0.34, 95% CI, 0.16 to 0.74) but not suicide attempts ( OR = 1.03, 95% CI, 0.46 to 2.30). Conclusions: There is a growing variety of psychotherapeutic interventions for adolescents with BPD symptomatology that appears feasible and effective in the short term, but efficacy is not retained in follow-up—particularly for frequency of suicide attempts.

Abstract Background: Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is recognized a serious mental disorder. Its prevalence has increased in recent years. Emotion regulation has been noted to have important role in mental health problems. There is evidence in the literature about the relationship between NSSI and emotion regulation. The studies, however, have reported mixed findings, and no comprehensive study has been conducted yet to address this topic. Therefore, the aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to investigate the relationship between NSSI and emotion regulation.Methods: All studies published after 1990 that have assessed the relationship between NSSI and emotion regulation will be eligible. This entails observational-analytic (descriptive or cross-sectional) studies, case-control studies, cohort studies. There will be no language restriction. Additionally, no limitation will be imposed regarding age, gender, and nationality of the subjects studiedDiscussion: Given the inconsistencies present in the findings of primary studies in terms of relationship between NSSI and emotion regulation strategies conducting such a study seems necessary. The results of this study could be used to improve our knowledge about NSSI, help revise health policies in the future, research and education to reduce NSSI burden, and to develop more effective interventions to manage NSSI.Systematic review registration: CRD42021226454
