Score ranges and clinical significance for the various questionnaires: MADRS (range, 0–60): ≤ 10 = remission, >10 = depression (the higher the number, the greater the degree of symptom severity); BES (range, 0–46): ≤ 17 = little or no problem, > 17 and < 27 = moderate problem, ≥ 27 = serious problem; IDS-SR (range, 0–84): 0–13 = no problem, 14–25 = mild, 26–38 = moderate, 39–48 = severe, 49–84 = very severe.
