Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Multiple sclerosis and major depressive disorder frequently co-occur but depression often remains undiagnosed in this population. Self-rated depression questionnaires are a good option where clinician-based standardized diagnostics are not feasible. However, there is a paucity of data on diagnostic accuracy of self-report measures for depression in multiple sclerosis (MS). Moreover, head-to-head comparisons of common questionnaires are largely lacking. This could be particularly relevant for high-risk patients with depressive symptoms. Here, we compare the diagnostic accuracy of the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and 30-item version of the Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology Self-Rated (IDS-SR30) for major depressive disorder (MSS) against diagnosis by a structured clinical interview.Entities:

Figure 1Receiver-Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves for the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), the self-rated Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (IDS-SR30) total score (IDS total) and the cognitive (IDS cog) and somatic (IDS som) subscores for predicting major depressive disorder based on structured clinical interviews (M.I.N.I).
Clinical and demographic characteristics. Mean (M) and standard error of the mean (SEM) for the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), total 30-item self-report Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (IDS-SR30), somatic (IDS som), and cognitive IDS subscale (IDS-SR30cog) as well as the Quick IDS (QIDS-SR) 16-item short version. Multiple sclerosis patients were diagnosed as depressed major depressive disorder (MDD) and nondepressed (no MDD) via structured clinical interviews (The Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview, M.I.N.I.).
