Anxious depression is associated with poorer acute outcomes than nonanxious depression following antidepressant treatment.

Remission of maternal depression has a positive effect on both mothers and their children, whereas mothers who remain depressed may increase the rates of their children's disorders. These findings support the importance of vigorous treatment for depressed mothers in primary care or psychiatric clinics and suggest the utility of evaluating the children, especially children whose mothers continue to be depressed.

This study supports specific clinical and sociodemographic correlates of MDD associated with high levels of anxiety (anxious depression).
