The purpose of this report is to identify sociodemographic and clinical features that are associated with SI in major depressive disorder (MDD) patients prior to treatment with a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor. Method: This multisite study enrolled 265 out-patients with non-psychotic MDD. Sociodemographic and clinical features of participants with and without SI were compared post hoc. Results: Social phobia, bulimia nervosa, number of past depressive episodes, and race were independently associated with SI by one or more SI measure. Conclusion: Concurrent social phobia and bulimia nervosa may be potential risk factors for SI in patients with non-psychotic MDD. Additionally, patients with more than one past depressive episode may also be at increased risk of SI. © 2009 John Wiley & Sons A/S. | Source Title: | Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/110134 | ISSN: | 0001690X | DOI: | 10.1111/j.1600-0447.2009.01516.x |
