Measurement of Depression in Patients With Cancer
Abstract
The recognition or detection of depressive symptoms and syndromes in patients with cancer is of value to the patient because his mental distress may respond to treatment, and to the clinician because some of the clinical complications or difficulties in diagnosis and treatment of the patient may be reduced. Many factors militate against the diagnosis of depressive syndromes in patients with cancer. These include problems with the application of standard sets of criteria for depression, the assumption on the part of medical staff, family, and patients that depression is a "natural" response and therefore not treatable, and the pressure on all involved to "think positive." Some ways of modifying the usual screening and diagnostic procedures for depressive disorders are suggested.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
