| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The number of suicides in Japan in 2017 was 21,321, and depression was reported in 50% to 87% of completed suicides. However, according to one meta-analysis, almost half of depressive patients were not identified in primary care. Thus, we investigated the effectiveness of risk assessment of depression at first contact on prevention of depression and suicidal ideation. We developed the risk assessment using depression-related factors identified in our previous studies. Participants were new patients aged 35-64 years recruited from internal medicine clinics in Japan. The repeated COVID-19 outbreaks have substantially increased the workload at internal medicine clinics. Therefore, data collected from these sites during the peak pandemic period and non-pandemic periods may not show consistent quality, potentially introducing serious bias and compromising the study's validity. Consequently, conducting this research under these circumstances was very difficult and we terminated the study.
