Trial Outcomes

31-phosphorus Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Phosphocreatine Metabolite

Phosphocreatine Metabolite is a phosphorylated creatine molecule that plays a role in the production of the energy in the body. Phosphocreatine (PCr) metabolite was quantified by calculating the ratio of PCr over total phosphorus resonance from 31-Phosphorus Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy. (NCT00851006)
Timeframe: 8 weeks

Mean Children's Depression Rating Scale (CDRS-R) [Reference: Poznanski EO et al. Preliminary Studies of the Reliability and Validity of the Children's Depression Rating Scale. J Am Acad Child Psychiatry. 1984 Mar;23(2):191-7.]

The CDRS-R is a 17-item scale, with items ranging from 1 to 5 or 1 to 7 (possible total score from 17 to 113), rated by a clinician via interviews with the child or parent. Scores ≥40 are indicative of depression, whereas scores ≤28 is often used to define remission (NCT00851006)

Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale

The Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) is a clinician-rated assessment of depression symptoms. Patients were rated weekly on 10 symptoms on a scale of 0 to 6 for each item, where 0 indicated no symptoms and 6 indicated the highest severity of that symptom. Total scores range from 0 to 60, where a moderate severity of depression would be present with a score of at least 20. (NCT00054704)
