We would like to thank Drs Pluijmers and Denollet for
acknowledging the importance of our findings about the
complex relationship between depression and Type D
personality. We also support their theory that this association
could be explained by dysregulations of the neuroendocrine,
autonomic nervous, and immune systems as was found in
several studies.
On behalf of all authors,
