The P value for gender distribution in the three groups was obtained by chi-square test.
The P values were obtained by one-way analysis of variance tests.
The P values were obtained by two sample t-test.
TRD = treatment-resistant depression.
TSD = treatment-sensitive depression.
HS = healthy subjects.
HRSD = Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression.
