    Area of Science:

    • Psychiatry
    • Epidemiology

    Context:

    • Prevalence of depressive diseases varies widely in literature due to inconsistent diagnostic criteria.
    • Epidemiological research faces challenges in nosological differentiation, case identification, and definition of depressive disorders.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the prevalence of depressive diseases in an alpine valley population.
    • To address the lack of standardized diagnostic criteria affecting epidemiological research.

    Summary:

    • A seven-year epidemiological study surveyed 1337 adults in an alpine valley.
    • Utilized a comprehensive case-finding method to determine the incidence of affective psychoses.
    • Revealed an incidence of 3.9% for affective psychoses, suggesting a 3-4% prevalence for endogenous manic-depressive disease.

    Impact:

    • Provides a more accurate prevalence estimate for endogenous manic-depressive disease.
    • Highlights the critical need for standardized diagnostic criteria in psychiatric epidemiology.
    • Offers a benchmark for future epidemiological studies on depressive disorders.
