Summary

This study looks at how a nasal spray called esketamine helps people with severe depression who are thinking about suicide. Researchers want to know if it works by improving the ability to feel pleasure (anhedonia) and by reducing emotional pain. They are analyzing data from 456 patients who took part in two earlier trials to find out which patients benefit most.
