Real-world challenges in conducting lifestyle intervention research in mental healthcare: reflections from the MULTI+ trial
Our findings highlight the need for research approaches that are responsive to clinical contexts, enhance real-world applicability, and maintain scientific integrity. We discuss how pragmatic adaptations can strengthen the integration of research within mental healthcare practice, ultimately improving the impact of lifestyle interventions.
