Researchers develop first blood test to diagnose major adult depression:
http://www.ctvnews.ca/health/researchers-develop-first-blood-test-to-diagnose-adult-depression-1.2009150#ixzz3DbC0pfET
I initially balked at the idea of something so finite as a blood test result diagnosing such a varied, complex condition, one which often overlaps with others, and wondered what purpose it served in practice. However, if it can also help determine who will respond to cognitive behavioral therapy, and also show whether the therapy worked, perhaps it is clinically useful?
