Effects of age on depressive symptomatology and response to antidepressant treatment in patients with major depressive disorder aged 18 to 65 years
2020
Background: There is evidence that symptomatology in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) changes with age. However, studies comparing depressive symptomatology between different age groups during antidepressant therapy are rare. We compared demographic and clinical characteristics in depressed patients of different age groups at baseline and during treatment. Methods: 889 MDD inpatients were divided into four age groups (18–29, 30–39, 40–49, 50–65 yrs.). Demographic and clinical characteristics including depressive symptomatology (assessed by the Inventory of Depressive Symptoms) were assessed at baseline and weekly during treatment. Results: At baseline, young patients (18–29 yea…

We aimed to investigate the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and MDD, the symptomatology of the disorder as well as the outcome of antidepressant treatment.Early medication change (EMC) trial participants with BMI measurement (n = 811) were categorized according to WHO-criteria in normal or low weight (BMI 25), overweight (25- 30), and obese (≥30). Depression severity and BMI was assessed in weekly intervals up to 8 weeks. BMI at baseline and course of BMI during the study were investigated in linear regression models as possible moderators of therapy response. Possible moderators such …

Depressive symptoms in late life : Results from a study in three Nordic urban localities.
1995
The prevalence and correlates of depressive symptoms among 75-year-olds were examined in three Nordic urban localities: Gothenburg, Sweden (n=446), Jyvaskyla, Finland (n=382) and Glostrup, Denmark (n=541). Depressive symptomatology was assessed with the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). Prevalence figures for depressiveness seemed to be somewhat higher in Jyvaskyla than in the two other localities. Women had more depressive symptoms than men in all three areas. The lowest mean score was recorded for Danish men and the highest level of symptoms in Finnish women. The associations discovered in this Nordic comparative study between demographic characteristics and depre…

2017
Adolescence is a period marked by important physical and social changes that can lead to a negative body image.
