Antidepressant Use Among People With Heart Disease

Patients who suffer depression–around 50% of those hospitalized and as many as one-fifth of others–are up to five times more likely to die or experience further heart problems within the next year than others. SSRIs, such as Celexa (citalopram), Prozac (fluoxetine) and Zoloft (sertraline), are thought to improve mood by preventing nerve cells from reabsorbing serotonin, thus increasing the amount of the neurotransmitter in the brain.

Antonio Brown Trade Grades Steelers Get Punked But Raiders Not Necessarily Winners

SN’s Mike DeCourcy expressed the same sentiment when he called the Brown deal the Steelers’ “most depressing front-office failure since they cut Johnny Unitas in training camp.” All of this must mean Oakland pulled off a heist in landing one of the league’s top receivers.

April Fool Man Utd S Mammoth Month Made Worse By Mourinho

Pep on Brexit: We’ll leave if the UK wants! Sometimes such a stat could be misleading since teams covering less ground could be either sluggish or simply better at making the ball do their work. But in truth, anybody who has watched Jose Mourinho’s side closely this season will find nothing about that statistic surprising. One of the reasons United are down in fifth in the Premier League table is their inability to stretch opponents, and as they prepare to face West Bromwich Albion at Old Trafford on Saturday, they do so dreading a repeat of countless home draws this season, in which visiting sides have found it too comfortable to defend against the Red Devils....
