Australian researchers identify new depression subtype tied to body clock
Original: Australian researchers identify new subtype of depression linked to body clock disruptions
Researchers in Australia have identified a new subtype of depression linked to disruptions in the body's circadian rhythm. The finding suggests some patients whose symptoms follow patterns of sleep and body clock disturbance may need different treatment approaches. The discovery is being reported as a potentially significant step in understanding why standard depression treatments do not work for everyone.
Why now: New research offers a possible explanation for treatment-resistant depression, drawing interest from patients and clinicians.
