Abstract
Many attempts have been made to measure some of the changes in various bodily functions that occur during the course of a depressive illness. These changes (and their responses to drugs) have been used in investigations that try to correlate such changes with the clinical syndromes of “endogenous” and “reactive” depressions (10). No reliable and valid correlations have, however, yet been found (4, 5).Keywords
