Abstract
Background Observational studies have confirmed that mental illness and pulmonary tuberculosis are closely related and increase each other's incidence; however, whether there is a causal genetic association between the two diseases remains unknown. We attempted to answer this question using bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) in a large cohort study. Method We performed a bidirectional MR analysis between mental illness (major depressive, anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia) and pulmonary tuberculosis using summary statistics from genome-wide association studies in European individuals. The inverse-variance weighted method was used as the primary analytical method to assess causality. In addition, other additional MR methods (weighted median, MR-Egger, and weighted mode) were used to supplement the inverse-variance weighted results. Furthermore, several sensitivity analyses were performed to assess heterogeneity, horizontal pleiotropy, and stability. Result We identified no causal genetic association between mental illness and pulmonary tuberculosis after applying the inverse variance weighted method (major depressive: odds ratio (OR) = 1.00, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.59-1.71, P = 0.98; anxiety disorder: OR = 1.72, 95% CI = 0.05-67.67, P = 0.76; bipolar disorder OR = 0.89, 95% CI = 0.66-1.22, P = 0.48; and schizophrenia: OR = 1.05, 95% CI = 0.91-1.20, P = 0.51). Similarly, pulmonary tuberculosis was not caustically associated with mental illness (major depressive: OR = 1.01, 95% CI = 1.00-1.02, P = 0.17; anxiety disorder: OR = 1.00, 95% CI = 0.99-1.01, P = 0.06; bipolar disorder: OR = 1.02, 95% CI = 0.98-1.07, P = 0.38; and schizophrenia: OR = 1.01, 95% CI = 0.97-1.05, P = 0.66). Conclusion Our research does not support a bidirectional causal association between the aforementioned mental illnesses and pulmonary tuberculosis.

Stigma, depression, quality of life, and the need for psychosocial support among people with tuberculosis in Indonesia: A multi-site cross-sectional study. PLOS GLOBAL PUBLIC HEALTH 2024; 4:e0002489. [PMID: 38190416 PMCID: PMC10773931 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgph.0002489] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2024]
Abstract
Stigma towards people with tuberculosis (TB-Stigma) is associated with other psychosocial consequences of TB including mental illness and reduced quality of life (QoL). We evaluated TB-Stigma, depression, QoL, and the need for psychosocial support among adults with TB in Indonesia, a high TB burden country. In this primary health facility-based survey in seven provinces of Indonesia, from February to November 2022, we interviewed adults receiving (a) intensive phase treatment for drug-susceptible (DS) TB at public facilities, (b) treatment at private facilities, (c) those lost to follow up (LTFU) to treatment, and (d) those receiving TB retreatment. We used our previously validated Indonesian TB-Stigma Scale, Patient Health Questionnaire-9, and EQ-5D-5L to measure TB-Stigma, depression, and QoL. Additional questions assessed what psychosocial support was received or needed by participants. We recruited and interviewed 612 people, of whom 60.6% (96%CI 59.6-64.5%) experienced moderate TB-Stigma. The average TB-Stigma scores were 19.0 (SD 6.9; min-max 0-50; Form A-Patient Perspective) and 23.4 (SD 8.4, min-max 0-50; Form B-Community Perspective). The scores were higher among people receiving treatment at private facilities (adjusted B [aB] 2.48; 0.94-4.03), those LTFU (aB 2.86; 0.85-4.87), males (aB 1.73; 0.59-2.87), those losing or changing job due to TB (aB 2.09; 0.31-3.88) and those living in a rural area (aB 1.41; 0.19-2.63). Depression was identified in 41.5% (95% CI 37.7-45.3%) of participants. Experiencing TB-Stigma was associated with moderately severe to severe depression (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.23; 1.15-1.32) and both stigma and depression were associated with lower QoL (aB -0.013; [-0.016]-[-0.010]). Informational (20.8%), emotional (25.9%) and instrumental (10.6%) support received from peers or peer-groups was limited, and unmet need for such support was high. There is a sizeable and intersecting burden of TB-Stigma and depression among adults with TB in Indonesia, which is associated with lower QoL. Participants reported a substantial unmet need for psychosocial support including peer-led mutual support groups. A community-based peer-led psychosocial support intervention is critical to defray the psychosocial impact of TB in Indonesia.

The rapid antidepressant effect of acupuncture on two animal models of depression by inhibiting M1-Ach receptors regulates synaptic plasticity in the prefrontal cortex. Brain Res 2024; 1822:148609. [PMID: 37783259 DOI: 10.1016/j.brainres.2023.148609] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2023] [Revised: 09/19/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND It is unclear whether acupuncture has a rapid antidepressant effect and what is the main mechanism. METHODS In this study, forced swimming stress test (FST) in mice were divided into five groups: control group, acupuncture group, scopolamine group, arecoline group, and acupuncture + arecoline group. Chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) model rats were divided into six groups: naïve (non-CUMS) group, CUMS group, acupuncture group, scopolamine group, arecoline group, and acupuncture + arecoline group. Twenty-four hours after the end of treatment, FST was conducted in mice and rats. The expression of M1-AchR, AMPA receptors (GluR1 and GluR2), BDNF, mTOR, p-mTOR, synapsin I, and PSD95 in the prefrontal cortex was determined by western blot. The spine density of neurons in the prefrontal cortex was detected by golgi staining. RESULTS The results showed that acupuncture reduced the immobility time of FST in two depression models. Acupuncture inhibited the expression of M1-AchR and promoted the expression of GluR1, GluR2, BDNF, p-mTOR, synapsin I, PSD95, and increased the density of neuron dendritic spine in the prefrontal cortex. CONCLUSIONS The rapid antidepressant effect of acupuncture may be activating the "glutamate tide" - AMPA receptor activation - BDNF release - mTORC1 pathway activation through inhibiting the expression of M1-AchR in the prefrontal cortex, thereby increasing the expression of synaptic proteins and regulating synaptic plasticity.

Rajkumar RP. Examining the Relationships between the Incidence of Infectious Diseases and Mood Disorders: An Analysis of Data from the Global Burden of Disease Studies, 1990-2019. Diseases 2023; 11:116. [PMID: 37754312 PMCID: PMC10528187 DOI: 10.3390/diseases11030116] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2023] [Revised: 08/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/04/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Mood disorders are among the commonest mental disorders worldwide. Epidemiological and clinical evidence suggests that there are close links between infectious diseases and mood disorders, but the strength and direction of these association remain largely unknown. Theoretical models have attempted to explain this link based on evolutionary or immune-related factors, but these have not been empirically verified. The current study examined cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between the incidence of infectious diseases and mood disorders, while correcting for climate and economic factors, based on data from the Global Burden of Disease Studies, 1990-2019. It was found that major depressive disorder was positively associated with lower respiratory infections, while bipolar disorder was positively associated with upper respiratory infections and negatively associated with enteric and tropical infections, both cross-sectionally and over a period of 30 years. These results suggest that a complex, bidirectional relationship exists between these disorders. This relationship may be mediated through the immune system as well as through the gut-brain and lung-brain axes. Understanding the mechanisms that link these groups of disorders could lead to advances in the prevention and treatment of both.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression is common among people with tuberculosis (TB). The condition is typically unrecognised or untreated despite available and effective treatments in most low- and middle-income countries. TB services in these countries are relatively well established, offering a potential opportunity to deliver integrated depression screening and care. However, there is limited evidence on how such integration could be achieved. This study aimed to understand the barriers and facilitators to integrate depression care in TB services. METHODS We conducted nine workshops with 76 study participants, including people with TB, their carers, and health service providers in Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan, seeking views on integrating depression care into TB clinics. We used a deductive thematic approach to analyse the translated transcripts of audio recordings, contemporaneous notes made during workshops for Bangladesh and India and workshop reports for Pakistan. Using the SURE (Supporting the Use of Research Evidence) thematic framework, we extracted and categorised barriers and facilitators into various domains. RESULTS Reported barriers to integrating depression care in TB services included lack of knowledge about depression amongst patients and the staff, financial burden, and associated stigma for people with TB and their carers. Government buy-in and understanding of how to identify and screen for depression screening were potential facilitators reported. Additionally, breaking through mental health stigma and providing the additional resources required to deliver this service (human resources and consultation time) were essential for integrating depression and TB care. CONCLUSIONS Depression is a common condition found among people with TB, requiring early identification among people with TB. Integrating depression care into Tb services by health workers requires the availability of political support and the provision of resources.

Abstract
Psychotropic effect of Crocus sativus L. (family Iridaceae) biologically active chemical compounds are quite well documented and they can therefore be used in addition to the conventional pharmacological treatment of depression. This systematic review on antidepressant compounds in saffron crocus and their mechanisms of action and side effects is based on publications released between 1995−2022 and data indexed in 15 databases under the following search terms: antidepressant effect, central nervous system, Crocus sativus, cognitive impairement, crocin, crocetin, depression, dopamine, dopaminergic and serotonergic systems, picrocrocin, phytotherapy, neurotransmitters, safranal, saffron, serotonin, and biologically active compounds. The comparative analysis of the publications was based on 414 original research papers. The investigated literature indicates the effectiveness and safety of aqueous and alcoholic extracts and biologically active chemical compounds (alkaloids, anthocyanins, carotenoids, flavonoid, phenolic, saponins, and terpenoids) isolated from various organs (corms, leaves, flower petal, and stigmas) in adjuvant treatment of depression and anxiety. Monoamine reuptake inhibition, N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonism, and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-α agonism are the main proposed mechanism of the antidepressant action. The antidepressant and neuroprotective effect of extract components is associated with their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity. The mechanism of their action, interactions with conventional drugs and other herbal preparations and the safety of use are not fully understood; therefore, further detailed research in this field is necessary. The presented results regarding the application of C. sativus in phytotherapy are promising in terms of the use of herbal preparations to support the treatment of depression. This is particularly important given the steady increase in the incidence of this disease worldwide and social effects.

Abstract
Poststroke depression (PSD) does not exist before and occurs after the stroke. PSD can appear shortly after the onset of stroke or be observed in the weeks and months after the acute or subacute phase of stroke. The pathogenesis of PSD is unclear, resulting in poor treatment effects. With research advancement, immunoactive cells in the central nervous system, particularly microglia, play a role in the occurrence and development of PSD. Microglia affects the homeostasis of the central nervous system through various factors, leading to the occurrence of depression. The research progress of microglia in PSD has been summarized to review the evidence regarding the pathogenesis and treatment target of PSD in the future.

Abstract
Our study aimed to investigate the epidemiology of extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) and analyse the epidemiological characteristics of EPTB patients with or without pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). EPTB cases admitted in our hospital from January 2015 to December 2020 were included. Uni- and multi-variable logistic regression analysis was carried out to identify risk factors and prognostic factors of concomitant EPTB and PTB or exclusively EPTB. A total of 3488 EPTB patients were reviewed, including 2086 patients with concurrent PTB and EPTB, and 1402 patients with exclusively EPTB. Logistic regression analysis showed that age >60 years (OR = 1.674, 95% CI = 1.438–1.949, P < 0.001) and female (OR = 1.325, 95% CI = 1.155–1.520, P < 0.001) were risk factors of exclusively EPTB, while co-morbidities (OR = 0.676, 95% CI = 0.492–0.929, P = 0.016) and severe symptoms (OR = 0.613, 95% CI = 0.405–0.929, P = 0.021) were risk factors for concurrence of EPTB and PTB. Age >60 years was an independent prognostic factor in EPTB patients with or without PTB (HR = 11.059, 95%CI = 5.097–23.999, P < 0.001; HR = 23.994, 95%CI = 3.093–186.151, P = 0.0020). Female gender was an independent prognostic factor in patients with concurrent PTB and EPTB (HR = 23.994, 95%CI = 3.093–186.151, P = 0.002). Our study disclosed the differential epidemiological characteristics of EPTB patients with or without PTB in China.

Abstract
Objective The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to examine the association between high ratio of n-6/n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and depression. Methods The authors conducted a meta-analysis of research articles on the association of high ratio of n-6/n-3 PUFAs with the risk of depression published in the online article database on PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library as of December 2021. Pooled odds ratios (OR) were calculated using random effects models. Publication bias was assessed visually by funnel plots and statistically by the Egger’s and Begg’s tests. Results Finally, 12 studies included in this systematic review and meta-analysis with a total of 66,317 participants (including 4,173 individuals with depression condition). The pooled results showed that high ratio of n-6/n-3 PUFAs might be positively associated with depression [OR = 1.21, 95% confidence intervals (CIs): 1.04∼1.41]. The I2 test indicated that there was a substantial statistical heterogeneity across the included studies (I2 = 54.38%, P = 0.01). Subgroup analysis showed that high ratio of n-6/n-3 PUFAs in blood had no significant association with depression (OR = 1.15, 95%CI: 0.88∼1.50), while high ratio of n-6/n-3 PUFAs in dietary supplements was positively associated with depression (OR = 1.32, 95%CI: 1.16∼1.51). Conclusion This meta-analysis confirmed the association between high ratio of n-6/n-3 PUFAs and the risk of depression. High ratio of n-6/n-3 PUFAs in dietary supplementation was positively associated with depression, but had no significant association in the blood. This study suggested that lowering the dietary intake of the ratio of n-6/n-3 PUFAs would be beneficial in the prevention of depression.

BMJ Open 2022; 12:e048945. [PMID: 34992103 PMCID: PMC8739435 DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2021-048945] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2021] [Accepted: 10/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Tuberculosis (TB) and mental illnesses are highly prevalent globally and often coexist. While poor mental health is known to modulate immune function, whether mental disorders play a causal role in TB incidence is unknown. This systematic review examines the association between mental health and TB disease risk to inform clinical and public health measures. DESIGN Systematic review, following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. SEARCH STRATEGY AND SELECTION CRITERIA MEDLINE, PsycINFO and PsycEXTRA databases were searched alongside reference list and citation searching. Inclusion criteria were original research studies published 1 January 1970-11 May 2020 reporting data on the association between mental health and TB risk. DATA EXTRACTION, APPRAISAL AND SYNTHESIS Data were extracted on study design and setting, sample characteristics, measurement of mental illness and TB, and outcomes including effect size or prevalence. Studies were critically appraised using Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) and Appraisal Tool for Cross-Sectional Studies (AXIS) checklists. RESULTS 1546 records published over 50 years were screened, resulting in 10 studies included reporting data from 607 184 individuals. Studies span across Asia, South America and Africa, and include mood and psychotic disorders. There is robust evidence from cohort studies in Asia demonstrating that depression and schizophrenia can increase risk of active TB, with effect estimates ranging from HR=1.15 (95% CI 1.03 to 1.28) to 2.63 (95% CI 1.74 to 3.96) for depression and HR=1.52 (95% CI 1.29 to 1.79) to RR=3.04 for schizophrenia. These data align with evidence from cross-sectional studies, for example, a large survey across low-income and middle-income countries (n=242 952) reports OR=3.68 (95% CI 3.01 to 4.50) for a depressive episode in those with TB symptoms versus those without. CONCLUSIONS Individuals with mental illnesses including depression and schizophrenia experience increased TB incidence and represent a high-risk population to target for screening and treatment. Integrated care for mental health and TB is needed, and interventions tackling mental illnesses and underlying drivers may help reduce TB incidence globally.

Association between depression or anxiety symptoms and immune-inflammatory characteristics in in-patients with tuberculosis: A cross-sectional study. Front Psychiatry 2022; 13:985823. [PMID: 36339832 PMCID: PMC9631205 DOI: 10.3389/fpsyt.2022.985823] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression and anxiety are major psychological issues among patients with tuberculosis (TB) owing to chronic and complex treatments, have been reported to be closely correlated with immune and inflammation. However, the association of peripheral immune-inflammatory characteristics with depression/anxiety symptoms in in-patients with TB has rarely been reported. METHODS A cross-sectional study of 338 in-patients with TB from 3 hospitals in China were enrolled to investigate their depression and anxiety status by using the nine-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and seven-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7). Participants were divided into groups based on their PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scores, and differences in demography and immune-inflammatory characteristics were studied. Logistic analysis was performed to explore factors related to depression and anxiety symptoms. RESULTS Depression and anxiety prevalence among patients with TB was 47.9 and 42.6%, respectively. Furthermore, 38.5% of patients reported a comorbidity of depression and anxiety symptoms. The counts of CD3, CD4, CD8, and lymphocytes decreased, whereas those of neutrophils, platelets, and peripheral blood cells and their derived indices increased among TB patients with depression or anxiety in comparison with those without symptoms (p < 0.05). In addition, increasing age, lower income (monthly income ≤ 3,000 yuan), divorced or widowed, drug resistance, and higher systemic immune inflammation index (SII) were significantly associated with depression or anxiety symptoms (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Approximately half of the patients with TB suffered from depression or/and anxiety symptoms. Patients with depression or anxiety present worse cell immune status and stronger inflammatory responses compared to those without symptoms. We emphasized the importance of paying attention to the dysfunction of immune-inflammation process of TB patients with depression or anxiety symptoms. Especially, SII has a potential application value in guiding the evaluation of TB-related depression or anxiety owing to its easily accessibility and being economical.

Abstract
Tuberculosis is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, primarily affecting
low- and middle income countries and individuals with limited-resources within
fractured health care systems. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic has only
served to aggravate the already existing diagnostic gap, decreasing the number
of people who get diagnosed and thereby complete successful treatment. In
addition to this, comorbidities act as an external component that when added to
the TB management equation, renders it even more complex. Among the various
comorbidities that interact with TB disease, diabetes mellitus and depression
are two of the most prevalent among non-communicable diseases within the TB
population and merits a thoughtful consideration when the healthcare system
provides care for them. TB patients with diabetes mellitus (TB-DM) or depression
both have an increased risk of mortality, relapse and recurrence. Both of these
diseases when in presence of TB present a ‘vicious-circle-like’ mechanism,
meaning that the effect of each disease can negatively add up, in a synergistic
manner, complicating the patient’s health state. Among TB-DM patients, high
glucose blood levels can decrease the effectiveness of anti-tuberculosis drugs;
however, higher doses of anti-tuberculous drugs could potentially decrease the
effects of DM drugs. Among the TB-depression patients, not only do we have the
adherence to treatment problems, but depression itself can biologically shift
the immunological profile responsible for TB containment, and the other way
around, TB itself can alter the hormonal balance of several neurotransmitters
responsible for depression. In this paper, we review these and other important
aspects such as the pharmacological interactions found in the treatment of TB-DM
and TB-depression patients and the implication on TB care and pharmacological
considerations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mental health of patients with nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease (NTM-PD) has been underestimated. RESEARCH QUESTION What is the prevalence of, associated factors for, and clinical impact of anxiety and depression in patients with NTM-PD? STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Among the patients diagnosed with NTM-PD between July 1, 2011 and December 31, 2019, who were a part of Seoul National University Hospital's prospective cohort, we included those who completed the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) at least twice. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify the factors associated with anxiety and depression. Multilevel mixed-effects regression was used to analyze the HADS scores' longitudinal trends. RESULTS A total of 368 patients were included in this study, including 84 (22.8%) with anxiety (HADS-A score ≥8) and 83 (22.5%) with depression (HADS-D score ≥8). The presence of cough (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2.01, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.19-3.39) and febrile sensation (aOR 4.45, 95% CI 2.13-9.30) were associated with anxiety, whereas dyspnea (aOR 4.13, 95% CI 1.38-12.37) and febrile sensation (aOR 2.91, 95% CI 1.38-6.13) were associated with depression. Although the HADS scores of patients with anxiety or depression at the time of enrollment and throughout the follow-up period were higher than those without, these scores declined significantly within one year after enrollment. Patients with anxiety (P=0.006) or depression (P=0.004) received antibiotic treatment more frequently than those without. Treatment outcomes did not differ depending on the initial anxiety or depression status. INTERPRETATION Anxiety and depression were common in patients with NTM-PD and were associated with patient-reported symptoms. While these persisted over time, the treatment outcomes did not differ.

Effects of quercetin on the alterations of serum elements in chronic unpredictable mild stress-induced depressed rats. Biometals 2021; 34:589-602.

Abstract
Depression is a common and serious psychiatric disorder, but current conventional antidepressants have limited efficacy and significant side effects. Thus, better antidepressants are urgently needed. This study aimed to investigate the antidepressant-like effects and potential mechanism of quercetin by evaluating the changes of serum elements in chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) rats. Based on the results of the sucrose preference test (SPT), 96 rats were randomly assigned to six groups: control, different dosages of quercetin (10 and 50 mg/kg·bw, respectively), depressed, and different dosages quercetin plus depressed groups. After 8 weeks of CUMS modeling, rat serum was collected. Fifteen elements in serum were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), and related enzyme indicators, antioxidant indicators, and inflammatory cytokines were detected to further explore the potential mechanism. Besides, the accuracy and precision of the method were evaluated. The results showed that the levels of iron (Fe), copper (Cu), and calcium (Ca) in serum significantly increased (p ≤ 0.001), while the levels of magnesium (Mg), zinc (Zn), selenium (Se), and cobalt (Co) significantly decreased (p ≤ 0.001) in depressed group compared with the control group. The levels of the remaining eight elements did not change significantly. When high-dose quercetin was administered to depressed rats, the levels of the above seven elements significantly restored (p ≤ 0.001). This study suggests that quercetin (50 mg/kg·bw) has a regulatory effect on serum elements in CUMS rats, which may be mediated by reducing oxidative stress, inhibiting inflammation, and regulating a variety of neurotransmitter systems.
