摘要:
Sixty-eight euthymic outpatients diagnosed with bipolar disorder according to Research Diagnostic Criteria, based on structured assessment, completed the 20-item short form of the Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) questionnaire (SF-20), Patients' mean scores on the 6 SF-20 subscales fell within or below the range of mean scores reported for patients with chronic medical illness and major depression in the MOS, Thus, ED, even in clinical remission, is associated with marked reductions in self-reported functioning and well-being, confirming the importance of the disorder as a major public health problem, meriting substantial resources for research and treatment.
