A. Treatment outcome and BMI according to response status; non-response (i.e., treatment-resistant depression) was defined as insufficient reduction in MADRS score after two adequate antidepressant treatment trials. B. Clinical and sociodemographic parameters and their relationship to BMI controlled for sex, age, and weight gain risk due to medication. Variables were obtained from case report forms. Only significant results of covariates are shown. C. Exploratory MADRS sub-item analyses at retrospective baseline and post-treatment. The risk score represents risk of weight gain according to medication.

Abbreviations: BMI: body mass index; GAD: generalized anxiety disorder; MADRS: Montgomery–Åsberg Depression Rating Scale; MDE: major depressive episode; OCD: obsessive-compulsive disorder; PTSD: post-traumatic stress disorder; TRD: treatment resistant depression.
