Semi-structured in-depth interviews with 36 health workers explored their…
Is low folate a risk factor for depression? A meta-analysis and exploration of heterogeneity
Low folate has been causatively linked to depression, but research is contradictory. An association may arise due to chance, bias, confounding or reverse causality. A systematic review of observational studies which examined the association between depression and folate was conducted. 11 relevant studies (15 315 participants; three case–control studies, seven population surveys and one cohort study) examining the risk of depression in the presenc…
