Late-Life Depression

Severity in symptoms of late-life depression may be linked to geography, as well as racial/ethnic disparities depending on location, according to a cohort study published in The American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry.

Depression among older adults did not appear associated with amyloid beta deposits, according to study results published in Biological Psychiatry.

Researchers observed significant racial and ethnic differences in late-life depression severity, item-level symptom burden and depression care among older adults after adjusting for numerous confounders, according to results of a cross-sectional study published in JAMA Network Open.
