  1. MDE, current major depressive episode diagnosed with SCID MDE module.
  2. aRisk difference was calculated using the GEE model.
  3. bAdjusted risk difference was calculated by the GEE model weighted by inverse probability of treatment calculated from logistic regression based on the prespecified covariates (age, parity, household income and PHQ-9 score at baseline).
  4. cP value for one-sided noninferiority test.
