Symptom counts pertain to the assessment phase when participants in the depression groups met DSM-IV diagnostic criteria for depressive disorder (i.e. baseline for current and prior groups; follow-up for future group).

A larger number of participants completed the AGN at follow-up hence the larger number of participants included in the prior depression analysis (which compared AGN data at follow-up in those without disorder and with depressive disorder at baseline)

a

5 cases were new onset episodes of depressive disorder, 6 were recurrences from the baseline assessment and 3 individuals had different disorders at baseline.
