Means, standard deviations (SD), minimal (Min), and maximal (Max) values are presented. Significance testing between groups was conducted with independent samples t-tests. “Total inpatient episodes” includes the baseline assessment inpatient episode as well as all previous inpatient episodes. HAM-D total total score for the first 17 items of the HAM scale; CES-D total total score with the inversion of positive items 4, 8, 12, and 16 taken into account
