Serum assay results.

Serum analytes	Median (IQR)		𝑡^∗	𝑃
	CES-D < 16; 𝑛=28	CES-D ≥ 16; 𝑛=19
IL-17 (pg/mL)	40.4 (32.8–52.2)	38.0 (33.2–50.7)	0.66	0.52
IL-23 (pg/mL)	300 (273–438)	262 (192–382)	1.81	0.08
IL-10 (pg/mL)	0.20 (0.20–2.41)	0.20 (0.20–2.07)	0.10	0.92
IFN-γ (pg/mL)	0.85 (0.18–1.00)	1.00 (0.23–1.00)	0.20	0.84
LPH (nmol/mL)	11.2 (8.25–13.0)	9.06 (7.63–10.5)	0.84	0.41

^∗𝑡 values and corresponding  𝑃  values reflect results of Student’s 𝑡-test using log transformed values.
Percentages of analyte concentrations returned below the limit of detectability were 0% for IL-17, IL-23, and LPH, 66% for IL-10, and 30% for IFN-γ.
