Relationship Between Depression and Neurodegeneration: Risk Factor, Prodrome, Consequence, or Something Else? A Scoping Review
Abstract: Background: The link between depression and neurodegeneration is complex and unclear. It is debated whether depression is a risk factor, a prodrome, a consequence, or unrelated. Objectives: This review examines these possibilities to clarify their connection, focusing primarily on Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia, Parkinson’s disease, and other highly comorbid neurodegenerative diseases. Methods: Eligibility criteria: The studies included in this review focused on neurodegenerative diseases with high com…

“…Moreover, the point is that these landscapes are likely to be patient-specific. Genetics, microbial ecology, their lifestyle, and age will ultimately matter and determine their compositions in these basins; thus, classrooms of collapse may be remarkably different patient-to-patient [ 220 ]. For example, two patients with similar risk may behave completely differently; one stays in a stable basin, and the other progresses to disease.…”
