  1. *BASDEC depression score was the dependent variable
  2. CRP = C-reactive protein; FEV 1 = Forced Expiratory Volume over 1 Second; IL-6 = Interleukin-6; 6MWD = 6 Minute Walk Distance; TNF-α = Tumor necrosis factor-α; TNF-α R1 = Tumor necrosis factor-α receptor1; TNF-α R2 = Tumor necrosis factor-α receptor2.
