(HealthNewsDigest.com) – ATLANTA – An Emory study released today reinforces the fact that mental health care across in the United States is not equitable when it comes to major depression in children 12-17.
Researchers from Emory University’s Rollins School of Public Health, Dr. Janet R. Cummings and Dr. Benjamin G. Druss analyzed five years of data (2004 – 2008) collected from the National Survey of Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) with a representative sample of 7,704 adolescents, 12-17 years of age, who were diagnosed with major depression within the previous year.
