An inability to stop ruminating is driven by insufficient methylation of dopamine, which makes the brain too "sticky."
This doesn't directly cause depression, but if you have depressing thoughts, emotions, and thought patterns, it makes them harder to let go of because the mind is too sticky.
This is why their are multiple randomized controlled trials showing methylation support decreases depression scores and why it is included in my depression protocol.

The mechanisms of acetaminophen-induced hepatic necrosis have been reviewed in [7], listed at end.

I hate to break it to you, but your favorite "evidence-based pyramid" guru learned about evidence-based medicine from a meme.

Yes, the pyramid is a meme. If it's what you know about evidence-based medicine, you are the Sesame Street character of evidence.
For example, this is a meme. Image
