Abstract
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a heterogeneous disorder that affects twice as many women than men. Precluding advances in more tailored and efficacious treatments for depression is the lack of reliable biomarkers. While depression is linked to elevations in inflammatory immune system functioning, this relationship is not evident among all individuals with depression and may vary based on symptom subtypes and/or sex. This systematic review and meta-analysis examined whether inflammatory immune peripheral markers of depression are sex-specific. PRISMA guidelines were followed for the systematic review, and a comprehensive search strategy that identified studies from PubMed and PsycInfo was applied. Studies were included if they reported C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and/or IL-1β for males and/or females among depressed and healthy adults. We identified 23 studies that satisfied these inclusion criteria. Random-effects meta-analysis models were fit, and measures of association were summarized between levels of circulating markers of inflammation in depressed and healthy males and females. Sex-based analyses revealed elevated levels of CRP among females with depression (Cohen's d = 0.19) relative to their healthy counterparts (p = 0.02), an effect not apparent among males (Cohen's d = -0.01). Similarly, levels of IL-6 were increased among females with depression compared to healthy controls (Cohen's d = 0.51; p = 0.04), but once again this was not found among males (Cohen's d = 0.16). While TNF-α levels were elevated among individuals with depression compared to controls (p = 0.01), no statistically significant sex differences were found. The meta-analysis for IL-1β resulted in only three articles, and thus, results are presented in the supplemental section. This meta-analysis advances our understanding of the unique involvement of inflammatory biomarkers in depression among men and women, which may help inform more tailored sex-specific treatment approaches in the future.

SPORTS MEDICINE AND HEALTH SCIENCE 2024; 6:240-245. [PMID: 39234489 PMCID: PMC11369830 DOI: 10.1016/j.smhs.2023.09.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2023] [Revised: 08/18/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Cardiovascular disease remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, a fact that is commonly associated with co-morbidities such as clinical depression. While phase II cardiac rehabilitation is an established intervention for those with cardiovascular disease, its effect on patients who also suffer from depression are under studied. Aim: To quantify Pre- and Post-cardiac rehabilitation questionnaire scores collected from a large patient data registry. For this investigation, 27 670 patients completed Patient Health Questionnaire-9 questionnaires both Pre- and Post-rehabilitation (averaging [28.0 ± 8.7] phase II sessions). Findings reveal that questionnaire scores decreased by 40%-48% across all groups, a finding that was independent of assigned sex, race, and ethnicity. Moreover, when data were stratified for questionnaire scores that may indicate major and minor depressive disorder, phase II cardiac rehabilitation outcomes were lower by 61% and 49% respectively. While all groups exhibited lower questionnaire scores following cardiac rehabilitation participation, numerical differences at Pre- and Post-rehabilitation time points indicate that males and White patients have more favorable scores. This latter observation, while not confirmed currently, appears to be linked to referral rates to phase II cardiac rehabilitation, which remain poor for females, racial and ethnic minorities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adults with heart failure (HF) experience a constellation of symptoms; however, understanding of gender differences in HF symptoms remain elusive. The aim of this study was to determine whether there are gender differences in physical and depressive symptoms and symptom patterns in HF using 2 different analytic techniques. METHODS We performed a secondary analysis of combined data from 6 studies of adults with HF. Physical symptoms were measured with the HF Somatic Perception Scale, and depressive symptoms were measured with the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. First, we performed propensity matching with the nearest neighbor to examine the average treatment effect for HF Somatic Perception Scale and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 in the matched sample of women and men. Next, we used the entire data set in a latent class mixture model to determine patterns of symptoms. Finally, we calculated predictors of class membership with multinomial logistic regression. RESULTS The sample (n = 524, 86.5% systolic HF) was 37% women with a mean age of 58.3 ± 13.9 years and mean number of years with HF of 6.9 ± 6.9. Three hundred sixty-six participants were matched on propensity scores; there were no significant gender differences in symptom scores between matched women (n = 183) and men (n = 183). Among all 524 participants, 4 distinct latent classes of symptom patterns indicate that many patients with HF are fatigued, some have more depressive symptoms, and others have significantly more edema or cough. Gender did not predict membership to any symptom pattern. CONCLUSIONS There were significant gender differences in sociodemographics, health behaviors, and clinical characteristics, but not HF symptoms or symptom patterns, using either analytic technique.

Single German centre experience with patient journey and care-relevant needs in amyloidosis: The German AMY-NEEDS research and care program. PLoS One 2024; 19:e0297182. [PMID: 38768126 PMCID: PMC11104610 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0297182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/30/2023] [Indexed: 05/22/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Amyloidosis is a rare multi-system disorder associated with frequently delayed diagnosis, enormous disease burden and psychosocial distress. METHODS Systematic assessment of needs was performed by a subtype-spanning questionnaire-based survey within the AMY-NEEDS research and care program. RESULTS 118 patients with proven amyloidosis (62.7% ATTR, 22.0% AL, 15.3% other forms) were included in August 2020 until February 2021 (mean age 71.2 ±11.3 years; 30% women). The median diagnostic delay between onset of symptoms and diagnosis was 9.0 (range: 2.5; 33.0) months. Local health care providers (HCPs) play a central role on the way to diagnosis. Diagnosis itself typically requires a clinical but not necessarily a university setting. In the treatment phase, the focus moves to the amyloidosis centre as primary contact and coordinator, with general practitioners (GPs) acting predominantly as a contact point in crisis and link to additional services. About half of patients reported impaired quality of life and one third suffering from anxiety and depressed mood, respectively. The majority of patients talk about their concerns with close caregivers and local HCPs. Advance care planning is a relevant, yet insufficiently met need. CONCLUSION The journey of patients with amyloidotic disease, their contact partners and needs at different stages were characterized in detail within the German health care system. An amyloidosis-specific care concept has to master the multitude of interfaces connecting the numerous treatment providers involved with the amyloidosis centre and GPs as key players. Telemedical approaches could be a promising and well-accepted option allowing optimal coordination and communication.

Prognostic Value of Depressive Symptoms for Cardiovascular Events in Female Patients With Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction and Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction. J Am Heart Assoc 2024; 13:e032961. [PMID: 38686893 PMCID: PMC11179909 DOI: 10.1161/jaha.123.032961] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Among those with heart failure (HF), women are more likely to develop depression than men. Few studies have focused on the outcomes of female patients with HF with depressive symptoms. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 506 female patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction were included in this secondary analysis from the TOPCAT (Treatment of Preserved Cardiac Function Heart Failure With an Aldosterone Antagonist) cohort, and 439 female patients with HF with reduced ejection fraction were included from the HF-ACTION (Heart Failure: A Controlled Trial Investigating Outcomes of Exercise Training) cohort. Depressive symptoms were measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 and Beck Depression Inventory-II. The depression class was categorized by severity, and the change in clinical depression class was defined as aggravated (1-grade increase) or improved (1-grade decrease). The prognostic value of depressive symptoms was determined by using multivariable Cox proportional hazards models. Female patients with improved depressive symptoms had worse depressive status at baseline and lower baseline Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire scores. Depression class at the 12-month visit and depression class change were the dominant prognostic factors for cardiovascular death in female patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction (hazard ratio [HR], 1.43 [95% CI, 1.02-2.01], P=0.036; HR, 1.71 [95% CI, 1.14-2.55], P=0.009). Among the patients with HF with reduced ejection fraction, both the depression class at baseline and depression class change had significant prognostic effects on cardiovascular death (HR, 3.30 [95% CI, 1.70-6.39], P<0.001; HR, 2.21 [95% CI, 1.28-3.80], P=0.004). However, the prognostic value of depressive assessments for hospitalization in patients with HF is unclear. CONCLUSIONS In female patients with HF with reduced ejection fraction, the depression class at baseline was most strongly associated with cardiovascular death, whereas in female patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction, the change in depression class exhibited a more significant prognostic trend.

Abstract
Sexuality is an important sphere of every person's life. Sexual dysfunctions and sexual dissatisfaction may also be present in cardiac diseases. Individuals affected by heart failure (HF) deserve special attention since it can be the final stage of many cardiac diseases. Therefore, it is important to verify potential correlates of sexual well-being in individuals with HF. This study was conducted online between 2019 and 2023, and 262 Polish women aged between 18 and 59 years (M = 45.48; SD = 7.65) participated in it. The Short Sexual Well-Being Scale, Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale, Fatigue Assessment Scale, and authors' questionnaire were used. Relationships between tested variables were verified with the use of network analysis performed with the EBICglasso estimator. Centrality assessment showed that sexual well-being had the highest values of betweenness, closeness and degree, followed by fatigue and depression measures. Sexual well-being was negatively related to the number of declared sexual dysfunctions, fatigue, stress and depression levels. Participants' age and HF duration were not related to the sexual well-being of tested women. Multiple additional partial correlations were detected. The obtained results show that sexuality may be a central sphere of life in women with HF and that one's sexuality should not be negated when working with cardiac patients.

Abstract
Ginsenoside Rg3, a compound derived from Panax ginseng C. A. Mey., is increasingly recognized for its wide range of pharmacological effects. Under the worldwide healthcare challenges posed by heart diseases, Rg3 stands out as a key subject in modern research on Chinese herbal medicine, offering a novel approach to therapy. Mental illnesses are significant contributors to global disease mortality, and there is a well-established correlation between cardiac and psychiatric conditions. This connection is primarily due to dysfunctions in the sympathetic-adrenomedullary system (SAM), the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, inflammation, oxidative stress, and brain-derived neurotrophic factor impairment. This review provides an in-depth analysis of Rg3's therapeutic benefits and its pharmacological actions in treating cardiac and mental health disorders respectively. Highlighting its potential for the management of these conditions, Rg3 emerges as a promising, multifunctional therapeutic agent.

Abstract
Heart disease (HD) is the major reason for the rampant cause of death around the world. It is deemed as a crucial illness among the middle and old age people which tends to high mortality rates. Recently, Effects of HD is presenting a shocking rise in India. Prediction of HD is considered as the major concern as people are engaged with their day-to-day life and not bothering about their health issues due to the tight schedule of work. Various symptoms may occur for the people who got affected with HD and the recognition of the disease tends to be difficult. Based on the clinical dataset, Data mining techniques are employed for gathering the hidden information. In the present effort, a Hybrid TSA-EDL (Hybrid Tunicate Swarm Algorithm and Ensemble Deep Learning) is implemented for the exact determination of HD. The main tasks indulged for the HD prediction are Pre-processing, clustering and classification. The relevant, irrelevant and redundant features are grouped by DBSCAN (Density-based clustering with noise). At last, the classification process is performed by the hybrid classifier. The proposed work is implemented using the python platform. Two datasets have been included for the analysis as University of California Irvine (UCI) and Cardiovascular Disease (CVD). The different performance metrics used for the analysis are accuracy, recall, specificity, precision, probability of misclassification error, root mean square error, F-score, false positive rate and false negative rate. The obtained performances are differentiated with the outcomes of UCI Cleveland HD dataset and other previous algorithms. As a matter of fact, the performance of the proposed work is increased by attaining the accuracy (98.33%) in CVD and (97.5%) in UCI.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Background The patterns of depressive symptom change during the first month after discharge, as well as their prognostic implications, and predictors of persistent or new-onset depressive symptoms are not well characterized. Methods and Results We included patients hospitalized for heart failure undergoing Patient Health Questionnaire-2 before discharge and at 1 month after discharge in a multicenter prospective cohort. We characterized 4 patterns of change in depressive symptoms-persistent, new-onset, remitted depressive symptoms, and no depressive symptom-and examined the associations between the 4 patterns and 1-year clinical outcomes. We analyzed the factors associated with persistent or new-onset depressive symptoms. A total of 4130 patients were included. Among 1175 (28.5%) symptomatic patients and 2955 (71.5%) symptom-free patients before discharge, 817 (69.5%) had remission, and 366 (12.2%) had new-onset depressive symptoms, respectively. Compared with no depressive symptom, persistent depressive symptoms were associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular death (hazard ratio [HR], 2.10 [95% CI, 1.59-2.79]) and heart failure rehospitalization (HR, 1.56 [95% CI, 1.30-1.87]); new-onset depressive symptoms were associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular death (HR, 1.78 [95%CI, 1.32-2.40]) and heart failure rehospitalization (HR, 1.54 [95% CI, 1.29-1.83]). Remitted depressive symptoms were associated with a slightly increased risk of cardiovascular death but had no significant association with heart failure rehospitalization. Patients who were female or had poor socioeconomic status, stroke history, renal dysfunction, or poor health status had a higher risk of persistent or new-onset depressive symptoms. Conclusions Sex, socioeconomic status, clinical characteristics, and health status help identify patients with high risks of depressive symptoms at 1 month after discharge. Dynamic capture of depressive symptom change during this period informs long-term risk stratifications and targets patients who require psychological interventions and social support to improve clinical outcomes.

Abstract
AimsThis is a sub-analysis of a randomized controlled trial on heart failure (HF) disease management (DM) in which patients with HF (N = 1,360; 27.5% women) were assigned randomly to DM (N = 682) or usual care (UC) (N = 678). Study intervention did not significantly affect the rate of hospital admissions or mortality. This study evaluates sex-related differences in baseline characteristics, clinical manifestations, adherence to treatment and outcomes among the study cohort.MethodsAssociation between sex and hospital admissions and mortality was tested in multivariable models adjusted for the patients’ baseline characteristics. The primary composite outcome of the study included time to first HF hospitalization or all-cause mortality. Secondary composite outcome included number of hospital admissions and days of hospitalization, for HF and all other causes.ResultsCompared to males, females recruited in the study were on average 3 years older [median age 72 (62, 78) vs. 75 (65, 82), p = 0.001], with higher prevalence of preserved left ventricular function (LVEF ≥50%) and lower frequency of ischemic heart disease (IHD) (p ≤ 0.001). Females had shorter 6-min walking distance and worse quality of life and depression scores at baseline (p < 0.001). The proportion of patients receiving HF recommended medical treatment was similar among females and males. During a median follow-up of 2.7 years (range: 0–5), there were no significant differences between females and males with respect to the time elapsed until the study primary endpoint and its components in univariate analysis [557 (56.5%) males and 218 (58.3%) females were hospitalized for HF or died for any cause; p > 0.05]. Multivariable analysis showed that females were significantly less likely than males to experience the primary outcome [adjusted hazard ratio (HR) = 0.835, 95% CI: 0.699, 0.998] or to die from any cause [adjusted HR = 0.712; 95%CI: 0.560, 0.901]. The sex-related mortality differences were especially significant among patients with non-preserved EF, with IHD or with recent HF hospitalization. Females also had lower rates of all-cause hospital admissions [adjusted rate ratio = 0.798; 95%CI: 0.705, 0.904] and were more likely to adhere to HF medical therapy compared to males.ConclusionFemales with HF fare better than men. Sex related differences were not explained by baseline and morbidity-related characteristics or adherence to medical treatment.

Abstract
AIMS The objective of the Randomized comparison of the Outcome of single vs. Multiple Arterial grafts: Quality of Life (ROMA:QOL) trial is to evaluate the impact of coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) on quality of life (QOL). The primary hypothesis of ROMA:QOL is that participants in the multiple arterial graft (MAG) will report time-varying changes in QOL that will be lower in the post-operative recovery period and higher after 12 months compared to patients in the single arterial graft (SAG). The secondary hypotheses are that both groups will have improvements in symptoms at 12 months, and that compared to the SAG group, participants in the MAG group will experience better physical functioning and physical and mental health symptoms. METHODS AND RESULTS An estimated 2111 participants will be enrolled from the parent ROMA trial from 13 countries. Outcome assessments include the Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) (primary outcome), Short Form-12v2, EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D)-5L, PROMIS-29, and PROMIS Neuropathic Pain measured at baseline, first post-operative visit, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60 months. The analysis for the primary outcome, the change in the SAQ from baseline to 12 months, will be compared across all time-points between the two treatment arms. CONCLUSION The ROMA:QOL trial will answer whether there are differences in QOL, physical and mental health symptoms overall for CABG, by MAG and SAG intervention arms, by sex, and between patients with and without diabetes.

Abstract
The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of virtual reality therapy (VRT) in the treatment of anxiety-depressive disorders and in reducing stress levels in a group of men with coronary heart disease (CHD) participating in cardiac rehabilitation (CR). The study included 34 men with CHD who were assigned to the experimental group (EG) or the control group (CG). CR in the EG was supported by 8 VRT sessions, while CR in the CG was supplemented with 8 SAT sessions. Anxiety-depressive disorders were assessed using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Perceived stress was assessed using the Perception of Stress Questionnaire (PSQ). In the EG, all measured parameters improved after the intervention. Significant reductions in HADS total score, the HADS-A, general stress score, emotional tension, and the external stress were obtained. In the CG, a deterioration in all measured parameters was observed. Significant changes were obtained in the general stress score and intrapsychic stress. The analysis between groups showed that the effectiveness of psychological interventions significantly differed between groups. The study results confirmed that supplementing standard CR with VRT leads to an improvement in the mental state of the patients and thus has a positive effect on the course of CR. However, the small sample size and high withdrawal rate prompt cautious interpretation of the results.

The Impact of Clinical, Biochemical, and Echocardiographic Parameters on the Quality of Life in Patients with Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2021; 18:ijerph182312448. [PMID: 34886173 PMCID: PMC8657062 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph182312448] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2021] [Revised: 11/22/2021] [Accepted: 11/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Despite significant advances in HF diagnosis and treatment over the recent decades, patients still characterize poor long-term prognosis with many recurrent hospitalizations and reduced health-related quality of life (HRQoL). We aimed to check the potential relationship between clinical, biochemical, or echocardiographic parameters and HRQoL in patients with HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). We included 152 adult patients hospitalized due to chronic HFrEF. We used the WHOQoL-BREF questionnaire to assess HRQoL and GNRI to evaluate nutritional status. We also analyzed several biochemical parameters and left ventricle ejection fraction. Forty (26.3%) patients were hospitalized due to HF exacerbation and 112 (73.7%) due to planned HF evaluation. The median age was 57 (48–62) years. Patients with low somatic HRQoL score had lower transferrin saturation (23.7 ± 11.1 vs. 29.7 ± 12.5%; p = 0.01), LDL (2.40 (1.80–2.92) vs. 2.99 (2.38–3.60) mmol/L; p = 0.001), triglycerides (1.18 (0.91–1.57) vs. 1.48 (1.27–2.13) mmol/L; p = 0.006) and LVEF (20 (15–25) vs. 25 (20–30)%; p = 0.003). TIBC (64.9 (58.5–68.2) vs. 57.7 (52.7–68.6); p = 0.02) was significantly higher in this group. We observed no associations between HRQoL and age or gender. The somatic domain of WHOQoL-BREF in patients with HFrEF correlated with the clinical status as well as biochemical and echocardiographic parameters. Assessment of HRQoL in HFrEF seems important in everyday practice and can identify patients requiring a special intervention

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has become increasingly prevalent in women, and it is also in this group that the risk of developing depression is the highest. The most commonly applied therapeutic intervention in cardiac rehabilitation is Schultz’s autogenic training, which has proven to be of little efficacy in reducing depression and anxiety disorders. At the same time, a growing number of scientific reports have been looking at the use of virtual reality (VR) to treat mental health problems. This study aimed at assessing the efficacy of virtual therapy in reducing levels of depression, anxiety, and stress in female CVD patients. Materials and Methods: The study included 43 women who were randomly divided into two groups: experimental group (N = 17), where eight-week cardiac rehabilitation was enhanced with VR-based therapeutic sessions, and control group (N = 26), where the VR therapy was replaced with Schultz’s autogenic training. Mental state parameters were measured using the Perception of Stress Questionnaire and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Results: In the experimental group, the sole parameter which failed to improve was HADS-Anxiety, which remained at the baseline level. In the control group, there was a deterioration in nearly all tested parameters except for HADS-Depression. Statistically significant differences in the efficacy of rehabilitation were recorded in relation to the level of stress in the sub-scales: emotional tension (p = 0.005), external stress (p = 0.012), intrapsychic stress (p = 0.023) and the generalized stress scale (p = 0.004). Conclusions: VR therapy is an efficient and interesting complement to cardiac rehabilitation, with proven efficacy in reducing stress levels.

J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10143104.

Abstract
Anxiety disorders and depression are common comorbidities in cardiac patients. Mice lacking the serotonin transporter (5-HTT) exhibit increased anxiety-like behavior. However, the role of 5-HTT deficiency on cardiac aging, and on healing and remodeling processes after myocardial infarction (MI), remains unclear. Cardiological evaluation of experimentally naïve male mice revealed a mild cardiac dysfunction in ≥4-month-old 5-HTT knockout (−/−) animals. Following induction of chronic cardiac dysfunction (CCD) by MI vs. sham operation 5-HTT−/− mice with infarct sizes >30% experienced 100% mortality, while 50% of 5-HTT+/− and 37% of 5-HTT+/+ animals with large MI survived the 8-week observation period. Surviving (sham and MI < 30%) 5-HTT−/− mutants displayed reduced exploratory activity and increased anxiety-like behavior in different approach-avoidance tasks. However, CCD failed to provoke a depressive-like behavioral response in either 5-Htt genotype. Mechanistic analyses were performed on mice 3 days post-MI. Electrocardiography, histology and FACS of inflammatory cells revealed no abnormalities. However, gene expression of inflammation-related cytokines (TGF-β, TNF-α, IL-6) and MMP-2, a protein involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix, was significantly increased in 5-HTT−/− mice after MI. This study shows that 5-HTT deficiency leads to age-dependent cardiac dysfunction and disrupted early healing after MI probably due to alterations of inflammatory processes in mice.

Abstract
Stress management interventions (SMIs) can alleviate the psychosocial stress often experienced by women with heart failure. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to summarize women's participation rates, and predictors of participation, in SMIs for the management of psychosocial distress in women with chronic HF. Studies were retrieved from bibliographic databases, reference sections of relevant papers, and research registries. Included studies (a) evaluated a SMI approach for the management of chronic HF, (b) sampled chronic HF patients, and (c) used a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design. Independent coders extracted the relevant data. Thirty-five RCTs met inclusion criteria (N = 3,649; mean age = 63.5 ± 7.0 years). All studies sampled both men and women; the mean proportion of women who participated in the trials was 38.8% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 34.5-43.4; I2 = 82.4, 95% CI = 81.0-83.6). Women's participation rates were higher in studies sampling more HF patients with hypertension (B = 1.01, SE = 0.45, P = .046) but fewer HF patients prescribed beta blockers (B = -1.10, SE = 0.33, P = .006), F (2,12) = 6.27, P = 0.014, adjusted R2 = 61%. SMIs may offer women a complementary or integrative approach to standard treatment to help manage the psychological distress associated with HF. Future research should explore the potential benefits of offering stress management approaches to women as part of comprehensive HF care.

Abstract
Chordae tendineae rupture (CTR) is a potentially life-threatening cardiac event often resulting in Acute mitral regurgitation (AMR). We assessed Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, and anxiety symptoms in n=21 CTR patients with AMR (age 82.3 ± 4.2 years; 66.7% men) and compared them to n=23 CTR patients with Chronic mitral regurgitation (CMR) and n=35 Myocardial infraction (MI) patients. Regression analyses revealed that PTSD scores were significantly higher in CTR patients with AMR than in CTR patients with CMR or MI patients. CTR patients with CMR had the lowest levels of PTSD-symptoms. Depression and anxiety scores were elevated across all three groups. Our results suggest that psychosocial factors need to be considered in CTR patients’ care.

Abstract
Compared with men, female accounts for a larger proportion of patients with depression. Behavioral genetics researches find gender differences in genetic underpinnings of depression. We found that gender differences exist in heritability and the gene associated with depression after reviewing relevant research. Both genes and gene-environment interactions contribute to the risk of depression in a gender-specific manner. We detailed the relationships between serotonin transporter gene-linked promoter region (5-HTTLPR) and depression. However, the results of these studies are very different. We explored the reasons for the contradictory conclusions and provided some suggestions for future research on the gender differences in genetic underpinnings of depression.

Abstract
AIMS The decline of nutritional status and depressive symptoms are pandemic in heart failure patients and functional status may play a pivotal role between these. This study aimed to determine whether nutritional status is associated with depressive symptoms and whether functional status mediates this relationship in heart failure patients. DESIGN This was a secondary analysis of a cross-sectional study. METHODS The data were collected from November 2015-April 2016. Heart failure patients (N = 254) being hospitalized were included in this secondary analysis. The Depression Sub-Scale of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and the Duke Activity Status Index were used to assess patients' depressive symptoms and functional status. The nutritional status of patients was calculated using the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index. RESULTS In this study, the average scores of depressive symptoms, nutritional status and functional status were 4.91 (SD 3.12), 102.38 (SD 6.57) and 20.58 (SD 8.96) respectively. Out of the 254 patients, 46 patients (18.1%) had significant depressive symptoms (the score of Depression Sub-Scale of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale ≥ 8) and 55 (21.7%) suffered from malnutrition (the score of Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index ≤ 98). In the multiple regression analyses, nutritional status was negatively associated with depressive symptoms (β = -0.142, p = .02) and functional status mediated the relationship between nutritional status and depressive symptoms. CONCLUSIONS Many patients with heart failure have malnutrition and depressive symptoms. Functional status plays a mediating role in the relationship between nutritional status and depressive symptoms. IMPACT To relieve depressive symptoms in patients with heart failure, it is of importance to improve the functional status, especially for those with poor nutritional status.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that heart failure is associated with worse health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The existence of differences according to gender remains controversial. We studied 1028 consecutive outpatients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) from a multicentre cross-sectional descriptive study across Spain that assessed HRQoL using two questionnaires (KCCQ, Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire; and EQ-5D, EuroQoL 5 dimensions). The primary objective of the study was to describe differences in HRQoL between men and women in global scores and domains of health status of patients and explore gender differences and its interactions with heart failure related factors. In adjusted analysis women had lower scores in KCCQ overall summary scores when compared to men denoting worse HRQoL (54.7 ± 1.3 vs. 62.7 ± 0.8, p < 0.0001), and specifically got lower score in domains of symptom frequency, symptoms burden, physical limitation, quality of life and social limitation. No differences were found in domains of symptom stability and self-efficacy. Women also had lower scores on all items of EQ-5D (EQ-5D index 0.58 ± 0.01 vs. 0.67 ± 0.01, p < 0.0001). Finally, we analyzed interaction between gender and different clinical determinants regarding the presence of limitations in the 5Q-5D and overall summary score of KCCQ. Interestingly, there was no statistical significance for interaction for any variable. In conclusion, women with HFrEF have worse HRQoL compared to men. These differences do not appear to be mediated by clinical or biological factors classically associated with HRQoL nor with heart failure severity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sedentary behaviours may be related to factors such as self-efficacy, mood and social support. However, there is a paucity of longitudinal follow-up studies examining factors related to sedentary behaviour from physical-psychosocial perspectives in patients with heart failure. AIMS The purpose of this study was to explore the multidimensional associated factors and impacts of sedentary behaviour in heart failure patients. METHODS A longitudinal design was used. A convenience sample of 128 heart failure patients recruited from two large medical centres in northern Taiwan was obtained. Patients were interviewed with structured questionnaires to assess physical activity, symptom distress, exercise self-efficacy, anxiety and depression, social support, sleep quality and quality of life before discharge and at 3 and 6 months after discharge. RESULTS Heart failure patients reported low physical activity and tended to be sedentary. Sedentary behaviour was gradually reduced from hospitalization to 6 months after discharge. Sleep quality, quality of life, analgesic use, symptom distress and exercise self-efficacy were significant associated factors that explained 42.1-51% of the variance in sedentary behaviour. Patients with high sedentary behaviour had significantly greater depression and poorer sleep and quality of life than those with low sedentary behaviour at hospitalization and showed a significant improvement in depression at 3 and 6 months after discharge. CONCLUSION Sedentary behaviour is common in heart failure patients and has impacts on depression and quality of life. An appropriate physical activity programme focusing on disease self-management and enhancing self-efficacy is needed for heart failure patients to improve their sedentary behaviour and quality of life.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fatigue is a pervasive and serious complaint among aging adults with type 2 diabetes. Anecdotally, hyperglycemia was thought to cause fatigue, but prior cross-sectional analyses failed to find any relationship between glucose levels and fatigue. However, study methodology may have caused this relationship to be missed. Our aim was to use concurrent and continuous data across 5 days to examine real-time momentary relationships between glucose and fatigue levels by week, day, and time of day. Additionally, we explored how these relationships differed by sex. METHOD Participants (N = 54, 51% male, 54% non-White) wore continuous glucose monitors and wrist actigraphy into which they inputted fatigue ratings 6-8 times daily during waking hours across 5 days. Generalized estimation equation models were used to explore the relationship between glucose and fatigue when averaged by week, day, and time of day. Differences by sex were also explored. RESULTS HbA1c and baseline and real-time fatigue were higher in women than in men. Baseline HbA1c and self-reported general fatigue were unrelated. Fatigue levels averaged by day and time of day were higher in women than in men (p < .05). Glucose and fatigue were significantly related at all levels of data (weekly, daily, and time of day) in women but not men. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that, when measured concurrently, glucose excursions may affect fatigue levels in women.
