Abstract
This study evaluated clinical characteristics and suicidality of
patients with anxious depression in a large cohort of samples. Data were
collected from 1003 patients who were depressed. A total of 461 patients
were diagnosed with anxious depression and 542 were diagnosed with
nonanxious depression. After adjusting for the severity of depression, those
in the anxious depression group had significantly younger onset age, had
been suffering from depression for a longer period, were more likely to
experience a recurrence, and obtained lower scores on a scale assessing
quality of life. The anxious depression group was characterized by a
significantly higher proportion of individuals reporting significant suicidal
ideation and previous suicide attempts, and those in this group tended to
obtain higher scores on the Scale for Suicide Ideation. The present findings
that were drawn from detailed evaluation of suicidality strongly support
previous results assessed only with the help of clinical reports. More
attention should be paid to assess suicide risk in these patients.
Key Words: Anxious depression, anxiety, suicidality.
