The MADRS had a 10-item checklist (apparent sadness, reported sadness, inner tension, reduced sleep, reduced appetite, concentration difficulties, lassitude, inability to feel, pessimistic thoughts, and suicidal thoughts). Items are scored from 0 to 6, and the total score ranges from 0 to 60, higher scores indicating more severity. Change from baseline: mean score at observation minus mean score at baseline. Evaluation was performed at Week 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, and 52.

Change from baseline: mean score at observation minus mean score at baseline. Evaluation was performed at Week 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 36, and 52.
