Values are means ± SD [ranges]. Data were analyzed using three-way, mixed-model, repeated-measures analysis of covariance; n = 10 HAs (5 women), and n = 13 MDD (6 women). CRP, C-reactive protein; HA, healthy nondepressed adult; IL, interleukin; MDD, major depressive disorder; TNF, tumor necrosis factor.
