抑郁症是全球五大常见疾病之一，预计到2020年将成为致残的第二大主要原因，其经济和社会负担是全球的一个重大问题。
本研究旨在根据波斯医学和传统医学阐释抑郁症的病因及症状。
在本研究中，所调查的著作有《[具体著作1]》《[具体著作2]》《[具体著作3]》《[具体著作4]》和《[具体著作5]》。所调查的传统医学资料来源有卡普兰和萨多克的《[具体书名]》以及科学网、医学索引、Scopus、伊朗科学信息数据库和伊朗医学数据库中的相关文章。研究于2017年1月至4月进行，使用了关键词。
为解释生物学病因，应考虑多种因素，包括体液失调、主要器官尤其是心脏和大脑的寒热失调以及医学精神方面的一些质和量的变化。根据手稿，生活中的一些心理 - 情感事件可导致这些变化。它们可能独立引发抑郁症。从症状学角度来看，上述病因会引发一些症状和体征，这些与抑郁症的症状和体征相同，包括悲伤、哭泣、性欲减退、体重减轻、食欲和睡眠障碍、疲惫、认知处理缓慢、优柔寡断以及想死的意愿。
抑郁症的主要生物学病因是不同身体结构（体液、器官和精神）上的一组失调综合征（热、寒、干、湿）。因此，抑郁症的预防和治疗策略对所有患者不可能相同，治疗应根据准确诊断来设计。
