Predicting the naturalistic course of depression from a wide range of clinical, psychological, and biological data: a machine learning approach
Open accessAbstract
Many variables have been linked to different course trajectories of depression. These findings, however, are based on group comparisons with unknown translational value. This study evaluated the prognostic value of a wide range of clinical, psychological, and biological characteristics for predicting the course of depression and aimed to identify the best set of predictors. Eight hundred four unipolar depressed patients (major depressive disorder or dysthymia) patients were assessed on a set involving 81 demographic, clinical, psychological, and biological measures and were clinically followed-up for 2 years. Subjects were grouped according to (i) the presence of a depression diagnosis at 2-year follow-up (yes n = 397, no n = 407), and (ii) three disease course trajectory groups (rapid remission, n = 356, gradual improvement n = 273, and chronic n = 175) identified by a latent class growth analysis. A penalized logistic regression, followed by tight control over type I error, was used to predict depression course and to evaluate the prognostic value of individual variables. Based on the inventory of depressive symptomatology (IDS), we could predict a rapid remission course of depression with an AUROC of 0.69 and 62% accuracy, and the presence of an MDD diagnosis at follow-up with an AUROC of 0.66 and 66% accuracy. Other clinical, psychological, or biological variables did not significantly improve the prediction. Among the large set of variables considered, only the IDS provided predictive value for course prediction on an individual level, although this analysis represents only one possible methodological approach. However, accuracy of course prediction was moderate at best and further improvement is required for these findings to be clinically useful.

The model in Dinga et al. (2018) predicted who would develop TRD (defined as chronic depression with no improvement after two years of any or no treatments) and correctly predicted about half (47%) of the TRD patients.
“The model predicted who would develop TRD (defined as chronic depression with no improvement after two years of any or no treatments), found that about half (47%) of the TRD patients were correctly predicted to be so.”

The Results (Prediction of LCGA course trajectory groups; page unavailable) report 47% sensitivity for the chronic-depression group. The Methods (Definition of outcome groups and Participants; pages unavailable) define that group as having no relief from symptoms over two years and say participants could receive treatment or none. The paper does not define this outcome as treatment-resistant depression (TRD), so that label is not supported. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe Dinga et al. (2018) study is the only prediction model built on naturalistic study data that the review found, and it has the longest prediction endpoint.

The Introduction describes a prediction model using naturalistic NESDA data with a two-year follow-up. The paper cannot establish what the citing review found or whether this was its longest prediction endpoint; the Discussion also describes a previous model predicting outcomes over 10–12 years.

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.
