(F =  3.29, p<0.05, controlling for age, sex and BMI). The relationship missed significance in the combined sample (depressed plus controls) (F =  2.45, p = 0.07, controlling for age, sex and BMI) and was not significant in the controls alone (not plotted) (F =  2.28, p =  0.13, controlling for age, sex and BMI).
