A Comparison of Paroxetine, Imipramine and Placebo in Depressed Out-patients
Abstract
To compare the safety and antidepressant efficacy of paroxetine, imipramine, and placebo, data from six centres using the same protocol were pooled. A double-blind parallel-group design was used, with therapy lasting six weeks. From week 2 onwards, both the 240 paroxetine-treated and the 237 imipramine-treated patients were significantly different from the 240 placebo-treated patients, but no different from each other. Side-effects with paroxetine were less likely to lead to drop-out than with imipramine. Paroxetine had a possible earlier antidepressant effect than imipramine, and a possible earlier beneficial effect on anxiety symptoms associated with depression.

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.
