Health and disability costs of depressive illness in a Major U.S. Corporation
TL;DR: The cost of depression to employers, particularly the cost in lost work days, is as great or greater than the cost of many other common medical illnesses, and the combination of depressive and other common illnesses is particularly costly.
Journal ArticleDOI

William H. Sledge,Martha Staeheli Lawless,David Sells,Melissa Wieland,Maria O'Connell,Larry Davidson +5 more

Journal ArticleDOI
Post-traumatic growth among veterans in the USA: results from the National Health and Resilience in Veterans Study.
TL;DR: It is suggested that interventions geared toward helping trauma-exposed US veterans process their re-experiencing symptoms, and to develop greater social connections, sense of purpose and intrinsic religiosity may help promote PTG in this population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systematic reviews of the effectiveness of day care for people with severe mental disorders: (1) acute day hospital versus admission; (2) vocational rehabilitation; (3) day hospital versus outpatient care.
Max Marshall,Ruth Crowther,Almaraz-Serrano Am,FH Creed,William H. Sledge,H. Kluiter,Chris Roberts,E. Hill,D. Wiersma,Gary R. Bond,Peter Huxley,Peter Tyrer +11 more
TL;DR: Acute day hospitals are a less attractive option when demand for inpatient care is low and where effective alternatives already exist, and the interpretation of day hospital research would be enhanced if future trials made use of the common set of outcome measures used in this review.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-III—R and clinical diagnoses.
TL;DR: The patient version of the SCID appears to produce results that are very different from clinical practice, which, in turn, may be influenced strongly by location, and there was considerable variability among the major diagnostic categories.
