And because each bottle contains a unique permutation of up to 30 chemical compounds, any trace of it can be incontrovertibly matched to an ownership database as well as to the time and place of a recorded crime...
Whooley's team studied the depressed group further. Researchers systematically adjusted for each potential risk factor to figure out whether it was mediating the link between depression and heart disease.

Indeed, inactivity among the depressed patients gave them a 44% greater risk of having a heart event...
