N2 - To help defi ne the relationships among infl ammation, Alzheimer disease, and depression, the Texas Alzheimer's Research Consortium analyzed an array of infl ammatory biomarkers in a cohort of patients with Alzheimer disease and in controls.

The relationship between infl ammation and depression was not as clear, and it varied with aspects of depression, gender, and the presence of Alzheimer disease.
