MDE, Major depressive episode s.e., standard error; df, degrees of freedom.
a
0, no interference; 1-3, mild interference; 4-6, moderate interference; 7-9, severe interference; 10, very severe interference.
b
Cases with a valid Sheehan severity score or no. of days out of role, among those with 1-year MDE.
c
3 df tests for significant difference across age groups and 1 df tests for significant difference across genders; odds ratios and significance tests are not presented for the models where the size of the subsample is <15, or the count of the dependent variable is <5. Significance tests are also omitted if the dependent variable has no variation (all 0s or all 1s).
*
Significant (p<0.05).
