Description
Synthesizes current evidence, including some previously unpublished data, in a concise, easy-to-read format.
Recently, there has been a growing awareness of the multiple interrelationships between depression and various physical diseases. Patients with psychiatric problems, particularly depression, may be more susceptible to cardiovascular disorders.
