Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of two self-rating scales to detect depression: HADS and PHQ-9
TL;DR: The HADS has the advantage of evaluating both depression and anxiety, and the PHQ-9 of being strictly based upon the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, although the identified prevalence was similar.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of expanded CAG repeats in bipolar affective disorder using the repeat expansion detection (RED) method.

TL;DR: It is possible that the CAG trinucleotide repeat expansion is involved in the clinical expression of BPAD and that it is the molecular basis explaining the phenomenon of anticipation observed in this disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of trauma on quality of life as mediated by mental distress and moderated by coping and social support among postconflict displaced Ethiopians
TL;DR: Intervention strategies aimed at reducing mental distress, modifying coping strategies, and encouraging social support may turn out to be useful in increasing the overall quality of life in postconflict situations, and are worth considering as complements to strategies that improve the living conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anticipation in Swedish families with bipolar affective disorder.
TL;DR: Anticipation is thus an inheritance pattern in BPAD which suggests that the expansion of trinucleotide repeat sequences is a possible mode of inheritance inBPAD.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the lod score method in linkage analysis.
TL;DR: The current practice of claiming linkage between two genetic loci when the maximum lod score z(θ) exceeds 3 has not received theoretical justification, and it is found that a X2 approximation would instead be very adequate as a fixed sample size test.
