Are different sub-dimensions of depression associated with metabolic syndrome in the community?
Are different sub-dimensions of depression associated with metabolic syndrome in the community?
Different sub-dimensions of depression have opposing associations with metabolic syndrome, suggesting that specific depressive symptom profiles may differentially impact cardiometabolic risk.
Differential symptom-MetS associations may inform nuanced risk assessment in depression; leaves open causal links and targeted interventions.
Somatic affective symptoms of depression are positively associated, while cognitive-affective symptoms are negatively associated with MetS.
