Answer to Question 1

D
Data suggest that barely half of persons with depression receive treatment. In addition, less than half of those treated (less than 25 of the total) receive treatment that is judged adequate based on number and timing of follow-up visits.

Answer to Question 2

B
When a client is started on interferon treatment for multiple sclerosis and begins to ask the nurse about side effects and how the medication will make him feel, the nurse would inform the client that depression is one of the major side effects of this medication. Depression has been linked to changes in brain concentrations of serotonin.
