Abstract

Background Major depression disorder (MDD) is often associated with cognitive impairment. The development of an accurate and effective battery to measure cognitive deficit is necessary for both research and clinical practice in MDD. Our study was designed to test the psychometric properties of the MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB) in patients with MDD. Method Forty-eight patients with MDD, forty-three euthymic patients with bipolar disorder (BD) and thirty-two remitted patients with schizophrenia (SCH) were recruited from Tianjin Anding Hospital in Tianjin, China. The MCCB, the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale-17 (HDRS-17) were administered to assess cognitive impairment and depressive symptoms at both baseline and one month later. Result Our findings showed that the MCCB had good internal consistency and acceptable reliability in Chinese MDD patients. Our findings revealed a high correlation between the MCCB and the MoCA, indicating good concurrent validity of the MCCB. Furthermore, the MCCB showed high discriminant ability between MDD patients and healthy controls, and a principal component analysis of the MCCB in MDD patients revealed four domains with acceptable internal structure. Limitations We did not consider confounding factors, such as the course, severity of symptoms and medication treatments, which might bias the cognitive assessment. In addition, the use of the MoCA as a reference scale for mild cognitive impairment could weaken the concurrent validity of the MCCB in MDD patients. Conclusion Our findings demonstrated that the MCCB may be clinically useful as a cognitive impairment rating battery in Chinese patients with MDD.

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.
