Adverse childhood experiences, inflammation, and depression: evidence of sex- and stressor specific effects in a nationally representative longitudinal sample of U.S. adolescents
Overview
This longitudinal study examines how specific adverse childhood experiences influence C-reactive protein levels and depressive symptoms in U.S. adults, analyzing data for sex-based differences. The authors investigate whether emotional abuse, parental incarceration, maltreatment, or sexual abuse affect inflammation and depression differently for males versus females. The resource is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in the distinct pathways linking early trauma to adult health outcomes.
