The heartbreak of depression: 'Psycho-cardiac' coupling in myocardial infarction [PDF]

, 2017
Ample evidence identifies strong links between major depressive disorder (MDD) and both risk of ischemic or coronary heart disease (CHD) and resultant morbidity and mortality. The molecular mechanistic bases of these linkages are poorly defined. Systemic
