Note: SD = Standard deviation; Min = Minimum; Max = Maximum. BMI = Body mass index; IL-6 = interleukin-6; TNF-α = tumor necrosis factor-alpha; CRP = C-reactive protein; CDI-2 = Children’s Depression Inventory-2; CESDS-C = Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale for Children. Values reported in table for BMI, IL-6, TNF-α, CRP, CDI, and CESDS-C are reported for non-transformed data for ease of interpretation. These variables were transformed before statistical analysis. The inflammation composite was obtained by summing Z-score values for IL-6 and CRP. The depressive symptoms composite was obtained by summing Z-score values for the CDI-2 and CESDS-C.
