Item Open Access Animation of Major Depression Epidemiology(2006-08-28T21:21:40Z) Patten, Scott B.; Community Health Sciences and Psychiatry; Medicine; University of CalgaryItem Open Access A Major Depression Prognosis Calculator Based on Episode Duration(BioMed Central, 2006-06-14) Patten, Scott B.; Community Health Sciences and Psychiatry; Medicine; University of CalgaryThis is a paper published in the BioMed Central Journal: Clinical Practice and Epidemiology in Mental Health. The paper describes the development of a calculator to predict the probability of remission in major depression.Item Open Access Describing the longitudinal course of major depression using Markov models: Data integration across three national surveys(BioMed Central, 2005-11-15) Patten, Scott B.; Community Health Sciences and Psychiatry; Medicine; University of CalgaryA Markov model describing the longitudinal course of major depression.Item Open Access An Animation of Major Depression Epidemiology(2006-09-22T20:03:14Z) Patten, Scott B.; Community Health Sciences and Psychiatry; Medicine; University of CalgaryThis is an animation of major depression epidemiology. The animation includes an introduction to the layout of the simulation, followed by depiction of the epidemiology in a steady state.Item Open Access Dashboard Simulations(2006-09-28T01:37:42Z) Patten, Scott B.; Community Health Sciences and Psychiatry; Medicine; University of CalgaryThis animation contains Arena "Dashboards" displaying key parameters as 2.5 minute simulation intervals unfold.Item Open Access Hypnotic use in a population-based sample of over thirty-five thousand interviewed Canadians(BioMed Central Ltd., 2006-11-24) Patten, Scott B.; Kassam, AliyaItem Open Access Mental disorders in a population sample with musculoskeletal disorders(BioMed Central Ltd., 2006-04-25) Patten, Scott B.; Williams, Jeanne V.A.; Wang, JianLiItem Open Access The Self-Perception and Relationships Tool (S-PRT): A novel approach to the measurement of subjective health-related quality of life(BioMed Central, 2004-07-16) Wishart, Paul; Atkinson, Mark J; Wasil, Bushra I; Robinson, John WItem Open Access Abstracts from the 2007 Sebastian K. Littmann Research Day(2007-03-09T01:13:00Z)These are the abstracts from the 20th Annual Sebastian K. Littmann Research Day. The event was held at the Village Park Inn in Calgary Alberta on March 2, 2007.Item Open Access Visual Animation of Major Depression Epidemiology(2007-03-13T23:41:37Z) Patten, Scott B.Background: Epidemiologic estimates are now available for a variety of parameters related to major depression epidemiology (incidence, prevalence, etc.). These estimates are potentially useful for policy and planning purposes, but it is first necessary that they be synthesized into a coherent picture of the epidemiology of the condition. Several attempts to do so have been made using mathematical modeling procedures. However, this information is not easy to communicate to users of epidemiological data (clinicians, administrators, policy makers). Methods: In this study, up-to-date data on major depression epidemiology were synthesized using a discrete event simulation model. The mathematical model was animated in Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) to create a visual, rather than mathematical, depiction of the epidemiology. Results: Consistent with existing literature, the model highlights potential advantages of population health strategies that emphasize access to effective long-term treatment. Conclusions: Visual animation of epidemiological results may be an effective knowledge translation tool. In clinical practice, such animations could potentially assist with patient education and enhanced long-term compliance.Item Open Access Longer Simulations of Major Depression Epidemiology(2007-03-14) Patten, Scott B.Background: Epidemiologic estimates are now available for a variety of parameters related to major depression epidemiology (incidence, prevalence, etc.).
