 What research project will I work?
 Why is it important to know about this problem?
 How will I do this research?
 Rheumatoid Arthritis It’s a systemic auto-immune
disease that affects between 0.5% and 1% of the adult
population worldwide.
 The immune system is very complex and plays a direct
role in autoimmune diseases (such as autoimmune
hepatitis and rheumatoid arthritis).
Structure of the immune
system.
Depression
 Depression acts as an inflammatory disorder because
the plasma levels of two cytokines are increased:
 i.e. interleukin-(IL)-6
 tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα)
 (Maes, M. 2010, )
Lifetime Prevalence

D_ADULT.shtml
12-month Prevalence of Depression
Among All U.S. Adults by Sex
http://www.nimh.nih.gov/statistics/1MDD_ADULT.shtml
Hypothesis
 If depression acts as a initial factor in the patient’s
rheumatoid arthritis, then it can be presumed that it
awakens this auto-immunologic disease.
Group A(Experimental) Group B (Control)
Female patients that have suffered from
depression .
Female patients that haven’t suffered
from depression.
Are in early stages of arthritis (40 to 45
years of age ).
Are in early stages of arthritis (40 to 45
years of age).
Methodology
 Questions in different levels of depression from
different topics (1-3).
 For example:
 Monetary problems
 Self esteem issues
 Relationship woes ( great sorrow and distress)

inflammatory disease, but cell-mediated immune
activation is the key component of depression. .
