Background: To what extent the COVID-19 pandemic and its containment measures influenced mental health in general population is still unclear. Purpose: assess trajectory of symptoms during first year examine dose–response relations with characteristics containment. Data Sources: Relevant articles were identified from living evidence database Open Access Project, which indexes COVID-19–related publications MEDLINE via PubMed, Embase Ovid, PsycInfo. Preprint not considered. Study Selection: Longitudinal studies that reported data on population's using validated scales published before 31 March 2021 eligible. Extraction: An international crowd 109 trained reviewers screened references extracted study characteristics, participant symptom scores at each timepoint. also included for following country-specific variables: days since case SARS-CoV-2 infection, stringency governmental measures, cumulative numbers cases deaths. Synthesis: In a total 43 (331 628 participants), changes psychological distress, sleep disturbances, well-being varied substantially across studies. On average, depression anxiety worsened 2 months (standardized mean difference 60 days, −0.39 [95% credible interval, −0.76 to −0.03]); thereafter, trajectories heterogeneous. There was linear association worsening increasing infection measures. Gender, age, country, deprivation, inequalities, risk bias, design did modify these associations. Limitations: The certainty low because high bias large amount heterogeneity. Stringency surges strongly correlated changed over time. observed associations should be interpreted as causal relationships. Conclusion: Although an initial increase average between higher more stringent found, after pandemic. This suggests different populations responded differently stress generated by Primary Funding Source: Swiss National Science Foundation. (PROSPERO: CRD42020180049)
