A study published in BMCPsychiatry finds that obese US adults with high serum copper concentrations, and those in general with low serum zinc concentrations are susceptible to depressive symptoms. The exact causal mechanisms need to be further explored.
. Overall, 4552 subjects were included in the presents study, of whom 2311 were male and 2241 female. All subjects were adults above the age of 20: the age of 1986 subjects ranged between 20 and 45 years, and the age of 1841 subjects ranged between 46 and 69 years; the rest of the subjects were over the age of 69. Non-Hispanic whites made up the majority of participants , followed by non-Hispanic blacks , other races , Mexican-Americans , and other non-Hispanic .
Table 2 Weighted odds ratios for depressive symptoms across quartiles of copper, zinc, and selenium, NHANES To analyze for the potential factors influencing the correlation between serum copper concentrations and depressive symptoms, we conducted subgroup analysis. First of all, the interactions between serum copper concentrations and all covariates included in Model 2 were calculated, and the results are shown in Table.
