The Bipolar II Depression Questionnaire: A Self-Report Tool for Detecting Bipolar II Depression
Bipolar II (BP-II) depression is often misdiagnosed as unipolar (UP) depression, resulting in suboptimal treatment. Tools for differentiating between these two types of depression are lacking. This study aimed to develop a simple, self-report screening instrument to help distinguish BP-II depression from UP depressive disorder. A prototype BP-II depression questionnaire (BPIIDQ-P) was construct...

BACKGROUND Clinicians, both psychiatrists and non-psychiatrists, underdiagnose bipolar disorder in a substantial proportion of depressed patients. Correct diagnosis is important since the prescription of antidepressants without mood stabilizers may precipitate a switch to mania. In patients presenting with depression, what are the odds they will turn out to really be bipolar? There are few long...
متن کاملDetecting Internet Filtering from Geographic Time Series
Motivated by the desire to detect automatically instances of internet filtering and censorship, we propose an approach based on principle component analysis to identify per-country anomalous periods in the usage of censorship circumvention tools, and demonstrate the applicability of this approach with global usage statistics from the Tor Project. Our technique is presented as a tool that automa...
متن کاملFusing Location Data for Depression Prediction
Recent studies have demonstrated that geographic location features collected using smartphones can be a powerful predictor for depression. While location information can be conveniently gathered by GPS, typical datasets suffer from significant periods of missing data due to various factors (e.g., phone power dynamics, limitations of GPS). A common approach is to remove the time periods with sig...
متن کاملGeographic Summaries from Crowdsourced Data
In this paper, we present a research prototype for creating geographic summaries using the whereabouts of Foursquare users. Exploiting the density of the venue types in a particular region, the system adds a layer over any typical cartography geographic maps service, creating a first glance summary over the venues sampled from the Foursquare knowledge base. Each summary is represented by a conv...
