Abstract

Abstract:Depressive symptoms, somatic complaints, and circulating levels of inflammatory biomarkers interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were examined as correlates of social and physical peer victimization in an ethnically diverse sample of adolescents (N = 91) using a multi-informant approach. Hierarchical regression analyses indicated that social peer victimization was associated with higher levels of depressive symptoms, somatic complaints, and inflammation. However, being physically bullied only predicted lower levels of inflammatory markers. Additionally, the role of depressive symptoms in the victimization– inflammation relation was examined. Social victimization indirectly influenced levels of IL-6 (via depressive symptoms) and CRP (via depressive symptoms and IL-6, in series). These results provide initial evidence that peer victimization is associated with inflammatory markers in an adolescent sample and that symptoms of depression may be an important presage to inflammation and health problems, while highlighting the differential effects of social and physical forms of peer victimization.

社会和身体同伴伤害对青少年全身性炎症的影响

摘要：在一个种族多样的青少年样本（N=91）中，使用多信息者方法检测了抑郁症状、躯体主诉和炎症生物标志物白细胞介素-6（IL-6）和C反应蛋白（CRP）的循环水平，作为社会和身体同伴受害的相关性。分层回归分析表明，社会同伴受害与更高水平的抑郁症状、躯体主诉和炎症有关。然而，被身体欺负只能预测炎症标志物的水平较低。此外，研究了抑郁症状在受害-炎症关系中的作用。社会伤害间接影响IL-6（通过抑郁症状）和CRP（通过抑郁和IL-6串联）的水平。这些结果提供了初步证据，证明同伴受害与青少年样本中的炎症标志物有关，抑郁症状可能是炎症和健康问题的重要前兆，同时强调了同伴受害的社会和身体形式的不同影响。
