Novel intervention to extend life of depressed patients

A study of 512 patients at the Center for Translational Neuroscience at Ann & Robert H.
The researchers found that patients with major depressive disorder living with depression benefited most from a 15-week program of progressive antidepressants.
Disordered Thoughts:® is a multidisciplinary treatment that is designed to intercutively influence brain functions and behavior in a subgroup of depressed patients.
In one study, compared to patients who had not received normative intervention, 18 percent of patients who had a suboptimal treatment achieved clinically meaningful benefit from the intervention group, compared to 23% of those who had a optimal intervention.
Future studies should address the limitations of these retrospective cohorts, including the low enough number of patients enrolled at the time of data entry for the design, and the retrospective nature of the first two cohorts, the authors suggested.
