ADRSc: Adolescent Depression Rating Scale (clinician version) HDRS: Hamilton Depression Rating Scale ADRSp: Adolescent Depression Rating Scale (self-rated version) BDI: Beck Depression Inventory No depression: the patients did not meet DSM-IV criteria for MDD and were not judged clinically depressed by the investigator. Intermediate depression group: the patients did not met the DSM-IV criteria for MDD but were judged clinically depressed. Depression: the patients met DSM-IV criteria for MDD and were judged clinically depressed. |
