ABSTRACT Depression is a mood disorder which currently affects 350 million individuals worldwide. Recently, research has suggested a protective role of diet for depression. The Mediterranean-style dietary pattern has been highlighted in several systematic reviews as a promising candidate for reducing depressive symptoms. It has been speculated that this could be due to the high polyphenol content of foods commonly found in the diet. Therefore, the aim of this review was to assess the effects of polyphenols found in a Mediterranean diet on the symptoms of depression. A systematic literature review was conducted of original research which assessed the role of polyphenols on the symptoms of depression in humans. The following databases were searched: PROQUEST, SCOPUS (Elsevier), MEDLINE (EBSCO), CINAHL, and EMBase, up to 18 February, 2019. The inclusion criteria consisted of both observational and experimental research in adults aged 18–80 y that assessed depression scores in relation to polyphenol intake. A total of 37 studies out of 12,084 met the full inclusion criteria. Of these, 17 were experimental studies and 20 were observational studies. Several different polyphenols were assessed including those from tea, coffee, citrus, nuts, soy, grapes, legumes, and spices. Twenty-nine of the studies found a statistically significant effect of polyphenols for depression. This review has found both an association between polyphenol consumption and depression risk, as well as evidence suggesting polyphenols can effectively alleviate depressive symptoms. The review uncovered gaps in the literature regarding the role of polyphenols for depressive symptoms in both young adults and men. This review was registered at www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO as CRD42019125747.

Abstract Stroke is one of the major causes of disability in old age. Predictors for the functional prognosis have been studied, but the role of social resources in recovery has not studied as much. We examined whether social resources available before and after stroke onset improved functional prognoses. Data was derived from longitudinal data collected between 1987 and 2006 from Japanese adults aged 60 years and older. We identified 396 people who had experienced their self- or proxy-reported first stroke during follow-up (age at stroke onset: M = 76.0, SD = 6.9; 74.2% women). Functional health was measured by self- or proxy-reported activities of daily living. Social resources were indexed as residential status, contact with non-coresident children, social participation, and perceived support. Analyses were adjusted for age at stroke onset, gender, and education. A multiphase growth model showed that functional health typically deteriorated surrounding stroke and gradually declined thereafter. There were also individual differences in the trajectories of functional health. Individuals who more frequently participated in social groups prior to stroke and those who came to participate more frequently thereafter exhibited less functional decline immediately following stroke. Our findings indicate that social participation plays a protective role against adverse prognoses following stroke regardless of when individuals start participating. Inclusive communities would enable older adults to remain independent. Our study was limited in that crucial information about stroke, such as objective measures of initial severity, was not available and that individuals with more severe stroke may have dropped out after the onset.
