They suggest that identifying patients who may not respond well to antidepressant treatment in advance can help allocate resources and prevent potential harm.

The authors recommend a personalized approach to assessing depression and educating pain specialists on this matter. The article concludes by stating that the views expressed are solely those of the authors and do not represent their affiliated organizations or the publisher. The document also includes a list of references to scientific articles on related topics, providing a starting point for library patrons conducting research on chronic pain, depression, and other relevant conditions.
