TL;DR: Evidence is provided that COPD and asthma are associated with depression in the community and complex underlying demographic, medical and psychosocial variables have been identified which may justify an integrative treatment approach.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that many ATII-induced effects on vascular dysfunction, such as vascular inflammation, oxidative stress and a pro-thrombotic state, are mediated at least in part via CD40L.

TL;DR: In vivo treatment with the mitochondria-targeted antioxidant Mito-TEMPO partially corrected endothelial dysfunction and prevented vascular inflammation in ATII-treated PGC-1&agr; mice, suggesting a causative role of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species in this setting.

TL;DR: When confounding has been reduced, psychosocial factors have remained the strongest predictors of somatic symptoms and depression plays a smaller role for somatic symptom reporting in women vs. men.

TL;DR: The dimensions education and household net-income seem to play the most important role for socioeconomic inequalities in persons in Mid-West Germany with depressive symptoms, and the impact of major medical diseases on the development of elevated depressive symptoms was buffered by high income.
