Objective To compare the psychometric properties of the Chinese Mood Disorder Questionnaire (MDQ) and the Chinese Hypomania Checklist-32 (HCL-32),and determine the better approach for screening bipolar disorder (BD) among outpatients diagnosed as major depressive disorder (MDD)in general hospital.Methods A total of 1010 outpatients diagnosed as MDD were consecutively examined in 3 general hospitals.The patients' socio-demographic and clinical characteristics were recorded using a standardized protocol and data collection procedure.The MDQ and HCL-32 was self-completed by patients to identify symptoms characteristic of BD.DSM-Ⅳ diagnoses were established using the SCID-I/P (Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-Ⅳ axis Ⅰ disorders,Research Version for patients).Results 417 of the 1010 patients (41.3%) satisfied DSM-Ⅳ criteria for BD.In ROC curve the optimal cut-off of the HCL-32 was 11 symptoms for differentiating BD from MDD,its corresponding sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value was 0.80,0.85,0.79 and 0.84.The optimal cut-off of the MDQ was 4 symptoms,its corresponding sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value was 0.46,0.96,0.89,0.72 ; and with omission of the impairment criterion,it was 4 affirmative responses,the sensitivity and specificity was 0.76 and 0.93.Conclusions The study shows the HCL-32 is the better approach for detecting previously unrecognised bipolar disorder among outpatients diagnosed as major depressive disorder in general hospital.%目的 评估比较中文版心境障碍问卷(MDQ)与32项轻躁狂症状清单(HCL-32)筛查综合医院精神科门诊诊断的抑郁症患者中双相障碍的价值.方法 2008年11月至2009年12月采用中文版MDQ与HCL-32对来自国内3家三级综合医院的1010例精神科门诊诊断抑郁症的患者进行测评,记录其一般资料和临床特征,并由对测评结果不知情的精神科专家以《美国精神障碍诊断与统计手册(第4版)》轴Ⅰ障碍定式检查-病人研究版(SCID-I/P)为诊断标准,对患者做出明确诊断.结果 1010例患者中417例(41.3%)符合双相障碍诊断.经ROC曲线法,HCL-32对于双相障碍与抑郁症的最佳划界分为11分,相应敏感度、特异度为0.80、0.85,阳性预测值为0.79,阴性预测值为0.84;MDQ对于双相障碍与抑郁症的最佳划界分为4分,相应敏感度、特异度为0.46、0.96,阳性预测值为0.89,阴性预测值为0.72;若去除功能损害因子,MDQ对于双相障碍与抑郁症的最佳划界分为4分,相应敏感度、特异度为0.76、0.93.结论 中文版HCL-32较MDQ对诊断双相障碍有更好的灵敏度,也有较好的特异度,适合作为门诊筛查抑郁症患者中双相障碍的辅助工具.
