Paper C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This study looked at adults with chronic kidney disease to see if depression leads to poor blood flow in the legs. It found a link between high levels of depressive symptoms and the development of this condition. This is an observational study, so it shows a link, not proof of cause.
