Trial Outcomes & Findings for Neuroinflammation and Modulating Factors in Depression and HIV (NCT NCT04286282)

NCT ID: NCT04286282

Last Updated: 2025-01-09

Results Overview

The Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ)-9 is a 9-item survey measuring degree of depression severity over the previous 2 weeks. Items assess how often the patient has been bothered by specific symptoms and are rated on a scale of 0 (not at all) to 3 (nearly every day). Total score is an unweighted sum of the 9 item scores, with higher scores indicating greater depression severity. a score of 0-27 is possible. We aren't reporting subscales. A score of 5+ will screen positive for mild depression, and a score of 10+ is considered a positive to screen for moderate-severe depression. change between baseline and 3 months
