In all figures, larger scores on the y-axis = greater improvement from baseline, expressed in standard deviation units relative to the overall sample mean. A moderation by study’s eligibility threshold for the number of previous failed, adequate antidepressant medication trials that were required for study enrollment (post-rapid timepoint); B moderation by use of a crossover design (rapid timepoint); C moderation by study performance in the US (post-rapid timepoint). Regression prediction lines based on models predicting MADRS % improvement from baseline (standardized across the full dataset) at post-infusion (rapid or post-rapid) timepoint with a random effect for study. All individual patient-level datapoints are depicted by red triangles (ketamine-treated patients) or black circles (placebo-treated patients). Statistics overlaid on each figure depict the simple effects of the moderator variable within ketamine-treated patients alone and within placebo-treated patients alone.
