TL;DR: Continuity in clinic- and community-based samples suggests there is a dose-response relationship between depression and these inflammatory markers, lending strength to the contention that the cardiac risk conferred by depression is not exclusive to patient populations.

TL;DR: The authors review available evidence regarding several important psychosocial and behavioral factors associated with HNC diagnosis, treatment, and recovery, as well as various psychossocial interventions conducted in this patient population, before concluding with opportunities for behavioral medicine research and practice.
