However, we have taken a parallel approach by including in our analysis not only the genes with genome-wide significance (GWAS “white zone”), but also GWAS results of borderline significance (GWAS “grey zone”) with p-values between <10 −5 .

The remaining 8/17 studies considered both SUV-based and volumetric parameters (MTV and TLG) [ 29 , 34 , 35 , 37 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 50 ]: volumetric parameters showed a better prognostic value than SUV measure in 5/8 cases [ 34 , 35 , 37 , 47 , 50 ], with SUVmax of borderline significance and at univariate analysis only (in the studies by Nowak et al. and Klabatsa et al.), or significant at univariate analysis only (as reported by Doi et al.), or with totally no prognostic prediction power (as found by Lee et al. and Pavic et al.); SUVmax remained the only significant prognostic factor at multivariate analysis (if histology variable was excluded) in one study, when compared to MTV and TLG [ 46 ]; all PET parameters were significantly associated with prognosis in the remaining two studies [ 29 , 45 ].

When considered jointly, depressive symptoms and/or antidepressant use were directly associated with WBC count in the unadjusted (β = 0.36, 95% CI: 0.21, 0.51) and adjusted (β = 0.15, 95% CI: 0.00, 0.31) models, although the latter relationship was of borderline significance.
Compared with baseline, these reductions were statistically significant for breast tumors, nodes, and bone lesions and of borderline significance for liver lesions (see Table 2 ).
