Why is this work in the frame?

A frame that forgets how it found something cannot be audited. These are the routes that admitted this work.

Canadian affiliationAn author listed a Canadian institution. This is the only route the usual frame has.

Full frame distilled prediction

Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: This study's purpose was to clarify the appropriate treatment of bipolar depression by comparing the addition of an antidepressant versus a second mood stabilizer for inpatients being treated with lithium carbonate or divalproex sodium. METHOD: Twenty-seven patients were randomly assigned to groups that received double-blind treatment with paroxetine or a second mood stabilizer (lithium carbonate or divalproex sodium) for 6 weeks. RESULTS: Both groups showed significant improvement in depressive symptoms during the 6-week trial. There were significantly more noncompleters in the group being treated with the two mood stabilizers than in the group being treated with a mood stabilizer and paroxetine. CONCLUSIONS: Both treatments appeared to be effective; however, the addition of an antidepressant may have greater clinical utility in the treatment of bipolar depression.
