Severity of MDD and functioning were evaluated through five rating scales: Montgomery\u2013Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS), Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD), Clinical Global Impression (CGI), Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF), and Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS). Daily mean estimates of particulate matter with diameter \u226410 (PM10) and 2.5 \u03bcm (PM2.5), nitrogen dioxide (NO\n                      <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                      ), and apparent temperature (AT) were estimated based on subjects\u2019 residential addresses. Daily estimates of the 2 weeks preceding recruitment were averaged to obtain cumulative exposure. Multivariate linear and ordinal regression models were applied to assess the associations between air pollutants and MDD severity, overall and stratifying by hypersusceptibility and AT.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S092493382401767X_sec3\" sec-type=\"results\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Two-thirds of subjects were women and one-third had a family history of depression.
