A compelling association has been observed between cardiovascular disease (CVD) and
depression, suggesting individuals with depression to be at significantly higher risk for CVD …

Depression constitutes a novel and independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease,
which despite extensive support in the literature has been underappreciated. While much of …

Objective: In the present study, a photoplethysmographic (PPG) waveform analysis for
assessing differences in autonomic reactivity to mental stress between patients with Major …

BACKGROUND: Arterial stiffness gains attention as a potential mechanism underlying the
frequently found association between depression or anxiety and cardiovascular disease …

Background: Arterial stiffness may contribute to depression via cerebral microvascular
damage, but evidence for this is scarce. We therefore investigated whether arterial stiffness …

Objectives The relationship of depressive symptoms and subclinical atherosclerosis remains
controversial. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of …

PURPOSE:: To examine the association between depressive symptoms and subclinical
markers of cardiovascular disease (CVD), specifically arterial stiffness, as indexed by pulse …

Background: Arterial stiffening may underlie the association between depression and
cardiovascular disease (CVD), but reported data are inconsistent. We investigated the …

Background Major depression is associated with endothelial dysfunction and arterial
stiffening, which may mediate development of hypertension and increased cardiovascular …

OBJECTIVE: We tested the hypotheses that monthly fluctuations in markers of arterial
stiffness and blood pressure hemodynamics differ between women with and without …
