The epidemiology of depression across cultures (2013, background): “Evidence about MDD as a cause of these physical disorders is spotty, though, although we know from meta-analyses of longitudinal studies that MDD is a consistent predictor of the subsequent first onset of coronary artery disease (124, 144), stroke (93), diabetes (20), heart attacks (102, 110), and c”

(2009, background): “For example, both hostility and depression have been linked repeatedly with the incidence and progression of cardiovascular disease (see reviews by Miller et al. 1996, Rugulies 2002, Smith 1992, van Melle et al. 2004, Wulsin & Singal 2003).”
