- Using a cross-sectional design and systematic random sampling, researchers collected data from 412 patients, achieving a response rate of 97.6%.
- The findings revealed a 41.5% prevalence of TRD, with significant associations to factors such as female sex, comorbid psychosis, medical illnesses, and family history of mental illness, highlighting the need for better screening and preventive strategies for TRD.
