STAR*D-Child : 151 mother-child pairs in 8 primary care and 11 psychiatric outpatient clinics across 7 regional centers in the US “Continued efforts to treat maternal depression until remission is achieved are associated with decreased psychiatric symptoms and improved functioning in the offspring.” Treating Mother-Child Dyad shows promise of even better child outcomes
