BACKGROUND: Systematic screening is recommended for major depressive episode
(MDE) with the Neurological Disorders Depression Inventory for Epilepsy NDDI-E, 6
items and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) with the GAD 7 items in patients
with epilepsy (PWE). Shorter versions of the NDDI-E and the GAD-7 could
facilitate increased screening by busy clinicians and be more accessible to
patients with mild cognitive and/or language impairments.
METHODS: The effectiveness of ultra-short versions of the NDDI-E (2 items) and
the GAD-7 (the GAD-2, 2 items, and the GAD-SI with a single item) in comparison
with the original versions were statistically tested using ROC analysis.
RESULTS: ROC analysis of the NDDIE-2 showed an AUC of 0.926 (p
