519 Individuals with mental illness or affective disorders were not allowed to participate in this trial.

524 Individuals with psychiatric disorders were not allowed to participate in this trial.
385 Individuals with untreated major depression were not allowed in this trial, but patients on stable doses of antidepressants were allowed if the depression treatment was unlikely to change.
