TI  - Validation of the Longitudinal Interval Follow-Up Evaluation for the Long-Term 
      Measurement of Mood Symptoms in Bipolar Disorder.

AB  - The long-term burden of symptoms is an important outcome in bipolar disorder 
      (BD). A method which has minimal burden of assessment uses a retrospective 
      interview, the Longitudinal Interval Follow-up Examination (LIFE), although this 
      may be subject to problems with recall. This study examines the relationship 
      between the retrospective LIFE scale and concurrently-rated mood rating scales in 
      two clinical trials of 18 months of psychotherapy for patients with BD. The 
      Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) and Young Mania Rating Scale 
      (YMRS) were administered every eight to nine weeks and the LIFE was carried out 
      every 6 months. Correlations between scores on mood rating scales and at 
      equivalent times on the LIFE were examined, as well as of potential clinical 
      moderators. There were significant correlations between LIFE depression ratings 
      and concurrent MADRS score (r = 0.57) and between LIFE mania ratings and YMRS 
      score (r = 0.40). In determining "mild depression" on the MADRS, a receiver 
      operating characteristics (ROC) analysis showed an AUC of 0.78 for LIFE scores. 
      Correlations, particularly for depression scores, were high even when the LIFE 
      rating was several months before the interview, suggesting that the LIFE has 
      validity in examining the burden of mood symptoms over time, with relatively 
      little burden of assessment. Future research should examine the relationship 
      between symptom burden and quality of life measured in this way.
