Scientific Abstract

One third of the depressed patients do not respond adequately to conventional treatment. This seems to be associated with increased production of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-a and IL-1, as well as dysregulation of cortisol levels. This project aims to investigate the impact of the new psychotherapeutic method TaKeTiNa on serum lipids, cortisol Levels, and the production of proinflammatory cytokines.
