Oxidative stress predicts depressive symptom changes with omega-3
fatty acid treatment in coronary artery disease patients
Background: Antidepressant efficacy of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (n-3 PUFA) treatment in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients remains unpredictable.

High glycemic index diet as a risk factor for depression: analyses from
the Women’s Health Initiative
Background: The consumption of sweetened beverages, refined foods, and pastries has been shown to be associated with an increased
risk of depression in longitudinal studies. However, any influence that refined carbohydrates has on mood could be commensurate
with their proportion in the overall diet; studies are therefore needed that measure overall intakes of carbohydrate and sugar,
...
