With regards to "Contemporary fish consumption versus major depression", there are most likely strong cultural factors at play this chart does account for. Having lived in Japan and the US, I can say with some certainty Americans are vastly more likely to see a mental health care professional and therefore are vastly more likely to be diagnosed with depression. To this day it is still fairly taboo to see a psychiatrist. Furthermore, given the chart labels one of its data points "West Germany" I am imagining this data is from the late eighties at best, when it was even more taboo to see a mental health care provider. I would imagine the cultures in Korea and Taiwan may be similar in this regard.
