Pariante discusses the study by Frank et al. on the increased peripheral inflammation in depression. The authors find an association between elevated depressive symptoms and increased C-reactive protein (CRP) that is independent of age, sex, socioeconomic position, smoking behavior, alcohol consumption, physical activity, BMI, chronic medical illnesses, and adverse childhood experiences. However, crucially, this study also helps in understanding whether this biological abnormality is relevant to all, or just some, depressed patients.
