certain cancers, and frailty and functional decline.29 Moreover,
inflammatory activation can enhance development of depressive symptoms.30, 31 Thus, relationships characterized by hostility, repeated conflicts, and heightened IL - 6 levels could have negative consequences for both physical and mental health.
