CRP and major depressive disorder: Female sex was associated with current depression, both in groups with raised CRP (OR = 7.83; 95 % C.I., 1.78−34.40) and without (OR = 2.35; 95 % C.I., 1.64−3.35), but the association was stronger for cases with raised CRP (Holm-corrected p-value for likelihood ratio test <0.001) (Table 3).
