Older individuals appear
to experience different
depression patterns over time, Jin-Tai Yu, Study author at Fudan University, via 'PsyPost'.

According to the team, participants with untreated
depression were 30% more likely to develop dementia
than individuals who received treatment for depression.
The researchers found that both antidepressants
and psychotherapy appeared to offer protective
effects against later developing dementia. .
Once again, the course of ineffectively
treated depression carries significant
medical risk, in this case, symptomatic
depression increases dementia risk by
51%, whereas treatment was associated
with a significant reduction in this risk, John Krystal, Biological Psychiatry
editor in a news release, via 'PsyPost'.
This indicates that timely
treatment of depression

the onset of dementia, Wei Cheng, Study author at Fudan University, via 'PsyPost'.
'Psypost' reports that the study was specifically conducted
