As the authors acknowledge, a large body of evidence exists to link psychosocial factors such as depression, anxiety, and low social support to adverse cardiovascular outcomes. There is compelling evidence that up to 42% of coronary patients experience depression.2 Comorbid depression, even mild symptoms, can predict mortality,3 morbidity, and poorer clinical and well-being outcomes.
