In the article by de Man-van Ginkel et al, “In-Hospital Risk Prediction for Post-stroke Depression: Development and Validation of the Post-stroke Depression Prediction Scale,” which published online on August 26, 2013, and appeared in the September 2013 issue of the journal (Stroke. 2013;44:2441–2445. DOI: 10.1161/STROKEAHA.111.000304), a correction is needed. On page 2444, in Table 6, the four...

We present our preliminary work to determine if patient’s vocal acoustic, linguistic, and facial patterns could predict clinical ratings of depression severity, namely Patient Health Questionnaire depression scale (PHQ-8). We proposed a multi-modal fusion model that combines three different modalities: audio, video, and text features. By training over the AVEC2017 dataset, our proposed model ou...

Both human and animal studies support the relationship between depression reward processing abnormalities, giving rise to expectation that neural signals of these processes may serve as biomarkers or mechanistic treatment targets. Given great promise this research line, we scrutinized those findings theoretical claims underlie them. To achieve this, applied framework provided by classical work ...

BACKGROUND Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is the main cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and a considerable part of these patients attend to emergency departments, which increases the burden to these busy departments. The aim of this study was to develop a prediction model enabling prediction of all cause emergency department (ED) visits in patients with documented coronary stenosis in a...

The literature emphasizes the risk of depression after a stroke. Less well known is the fact that depression may be as big a risk factor for strokes as hypertension, particularly in the older age group. This article reviews the risk for stroke and cognitive impairment consequent to depression, and describes the cardiovascular and immunological mechanisms that would appear to link depression to ...

Depression is a common and severe mental disorder, which can cause a considerable degree of disability to the individual and society [1]. The molecular mechanisms of depression are poorly understood even though many studies have been attempted. Moreover, there are currently no distinctive biological markers to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of depression [2]. The diagnosis, evaluation of me...

Introduction: Depression is considered as a disorder that students have a susceptible environment for it and is affected by many factors. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the role of satisfaction of basic psychological needs and family functioning by interdisciplinary role of emotion regulation difficulty in the prediction of depression. Methods: The method used in the stu...
