Abstract
Background Hypertension is a common chronic disease that can trigger symptoms such as anxiety and depression. Therefore, it is essential to predict their risk of depression. The aim of this study is to find the best prediction model and provide effective intervention strategies for health professionals. Methods The study subjects were 2733 middle-aged and older adults who participated in the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) between 2018 and 2020. R software was used for Lasso regression analysis to screen the best predictor variables, and logistic regression, random forest and XGBoost models were constructed. Finally, the prediction efficiency of the three models was compared. Results In this study, 18 variables were included, and LASSO regression screened out 10 variables that were important for the establishment of the model. Among the three models, Logistic Regression model showed the best performance in various evaluation indicators. Conclusion The prediction model based on machine learning can accurately assess the likelihood of depression in middle-aged and elderly patients with hypertension in the next three years. And by combining Logistic regression and nomograms, we were able to provide a clear interpretation of personalized risk predictions.

Abstract
Objective To perform a meta-analyses to understand the current status of and risk factors for depression in older adults with hypertension. Methods Eight electronic databases and two clinical trial registries were searched to identify studies examining the incidence of and risk factors for depression among older adults with hypertension. The databases were searched from inception to June 2023. The included studies were evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale and the evaluation tool recommended by the Agency for Health care Research and Quality. Results A total of 18 studies with 29,694 patients were included. Meta-analysis results showed that the prevalence of depression in older adults with hypertension was 29%. The risk factors for depression among this population included sex [OR value 95% confidence interval 2.24 (1.32, 3.82)], education level [OR 95% CI 1.79 (1.02, 3.14)], residence [OR 95% CI 1.37 (1.24, 1.52)], comorbidities [OR 95% CI 1.79 (1.69, 1.90)], hypertension classification [OR 95% CI 2.81 (1.79, 4.42)], marital status [OR 95% CI 1.50 (1.33, 1.69)], sleep status [OR 95% CI 2.86 (2.21, 3.69)], activity limitation [OR 95% CI 3.42 (2.84, 4.13)], drinking [OR 95% CI 2.25 (1.58, 3.19)], social support [OR 95% CI 3.26 (2.42, 4.41)], living alone [OR 95% CI 1.79 (1.57, 2.04)], stressful events [OR 95% CI 1.62 (1.39, 1.90)], and course of diseases [OR 95% CI 3.23 (2.10, 4.97)]. Conclusion The incidence of depression in older adults with hypertension is high, and there are many risk factors. Clinical health care professionals should intervene early to target the above risk factors to reduce the incidence of depression in older adults with hypertension worldwide.

Am J Hypertens 2023; 36:209-216. [PMID: 36322608 PMCID: PMC10016037 DOI: 10.1093/ajh/hpac123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2022] [Revised: 09/12/2022] [Accepted: 10/31/2022] [Indexed: 03/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Identifying potential pathways through which adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) impact health and health behavior remains important, given ACE survivors' increased risk for cardiovascular disease and poor cardiovascular health behaviors. This study examines whether modifiable variables-depression and patient activation-explain the relationship between ACEs and medication adherence. METHODS Using baseline data from a pragmatic trial designed to decrease disparities in hypertension control, we conducted regression analyses to examine whether depression and patient activation mediated the association between ACEs and medication adherence. Data were collected between August 2017 and October 2019 (n = 1,818). RESULTS Participants were predominantly female (59.4%) and Black or African American (57%) with uncontrolled blood pressure (mean-152.3/85.5 mm Hg). Most participants reported experiencing at least 1 ACE (71%) and approximately 50% reported being adherent to their blood pressure medication. A significant indirect effect between ACEs and medication adherence was found for depression symptoms (Sobel's test z = -5.46, P < 0.001). Patient activation was not a mediator in these relationships. CONCLUSIONS Experiencing more depression symptoms significantly accounted for the association between ACEs and medication adherence in a diverse sample of adults with uncontrolled blood pressure. Addressing depression symptoms, which may result from experiences with ACEs and other current stressors, could translate to better medication adherence and, potentially, better blood pressure control among this high-risk group. Given the serious lifetime health implications of ACEs, continued efforts are needed for primary prevention of childhood adversities.

Determinants of depressive symptoms in older outpatients with cardiometabolic diseases in a Japanese frailty clinic: Importance of bidirectional association between depression and frailty. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0281465. [PMID: 36780484 PMCID: PMC9925076 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0281465] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2023] [Indexed: 02/15/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Frailty and depression may play important roles in the management of older patients with cardiometabolic diseases. We explored the determinants of depressive symptoms and their association with frailty among patients with cardiometabolic diseases (hypertension, diabetes, and atrial fibrillation) in a cross-sectional study. METHODS A total of 633 outpatients aged 65 years or older with cardiometabolic disease and suspected symptoms of frailty participated in this study. Depressive symptoms, physical activity, and social network were assessed using the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS)-15, International Physical Activity Questionnaire, and Lubben Social Network Scale-6 (LSNS-6), respectively. Frailty was evaluated using the Kihon Checklist (KCL) based on the Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA), the modified Cardiovascular Health Study (mCHS), and the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS). Binomial logistic regression analysis was used to examine the determinants of depressive symptoms and their association with frailty. RESULTS Depressive symptoms with GDS-15 scores ≥ 5 were present in 43.6% of the patients. In logistic regression, after adjusting for covariates, the determinants of depressive symptoms in all patients were lack of social network, low years of education, and frailty. In contrast, in logistic regression with frailty as the dependent variable, depressive symptoms were independently associated KCL-defined frailty (OR = 6.28, 95% CI: 4.13-9.55) and mCHS-defined frailty (OR = 2.66, 95% CI: 1.70-4.17), but not with CFS. Similarly, significant associations between depression and frailty were observed in patients with hypertension, diabetes, or atrial fibrillation. CONCLUSIONS Lack of social networks, low education, and frailty based on the KCL and mCHS were important determinants of depressive symptoms in all patients. The relatively strong associations between depressive symptoms and frailty based on CGA in patients with hypertension, diabetes, or atrial fibrillation suggest that the assessment of depressive symptoms is of great importance in clinical practice in those patients at high risk of frailty.

Abstract
Although obesity and depression are quite common among older adults, surprisingly published literature has not examined factors associated with co-occurring depression and obesity among older adults. The knowledge that fills this gap would be advantageous for public health social workers and other health professionals who provide health care and public health services to older adults. The objectives of this study were to access the prevalence of and independent predictors of co-occurring depression and obesity among older adults in the state of Alabama. A retrospective analysis was conducted using a statewide survey of Alabamian community-dwelling older adults (n = 1,166). Binomial logistic regression was used to examine predictors of co-occurring depression and obesity. The prevalence of co-occurring depression and obesity among older adults was 16%. In the multivariate analysis, African American ethnicity (OR = 1.505, CI: 1.019-2.223), hypertension (OR = 1.593, CI: 1.050-2.416), diabetes (OR = 1.768, CI: 1.188-2.632), and arthritis (OR = 1.640, CI: 1.096-2.454) were positively associated with co-occurring depression and obesity). Older age (OR = 0.963, CI: 0.942-0.985) and higher levels of physical activity (OR = 1.640, CI: 1.096-2.454) were negatively associated with co-occurring depression and obesity. There is a need for the development and implementation of suitable interventions to prevent and manage co-occurring depression and obesity among older adults, particularly older adults with arthritis, hypertension, diabetes, or of African American ethnicity.

Abstract
Hypertensive patients commonly co-exist persistent depressive symptoms. However, these issues are not always identified, especially in primary health care, which may worsen the prognosis of hypertension. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and risk factor of depression, and to develop risk nomogram of depression in hypertensive patients from primary health care Northwest China.We used a stratified multistage random sampling method to obtain 1856 hypertensives subjects aged ≥18 years in Xinjiang between April and October 2019. The subjects were randomly divided into a training set (n = 1299) and a validation set (n = 557). Depression was evaluated by Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), with a cut-off score ≥8. Using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression model, we identified optimized risk factors of depression in the training set, followed by the establishment of prediction nomogram. The discriminative ability, calibration, and clinical usefulness of nomogram were assessed. The results were verified by internal validation in validation set.13.7% hypertensive subjects displayed depression. Seven independent risk factors of depression were identified and entered into the nomogram including age, region, ethnicity, marital status, physical activity, sleep quality, and control of hypertension. The nomogram displayed robust discrimination with an AUC of 0.760 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.724-0.797)] and 0.761 (95%CI: 0.702-0.819), and good calibration in training set and validation set, respectively. The decision curve analysis and clinical impact curve demonstrated clinical usefulness of predictive nomogram.There is a considerable prevalence of depression in patients with hypertension from primary care of Xinjiang, Northwest China. Our nomogram may help primary care providers assess the risk of depression in patients with hypertension.

Abstract
Background Depression is a serious public health issue that has clinical, social and economic implications. Adult patients attending a primary healthcare (PHC) facility were screened in order to estimate the prevalence of depressive features and identify potential risk factors for screening positive. Methods This was an analytical cross-sectional study conducted at a clinic in Pretoria, South Africa. A self-administered questionnaire, which included the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) screening tool, was completed by patients attending the clinic. A PHQ-9 score of less than five was deemed as a negative screen for depressive features; with a score of five or more being considered a positive screen. A multivariate logistic regression model was developed to identify factors associated with a positive screen for depressive features. Results A total of 199 patients participated and the proportion screened positive for depressive features using the PHQ-9 tool was 46.23% (n = 92). Employed participants had significantly lower odds (odds ratio [OR] = 0.48; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.25 – 0.94) of screening positive, whilst the participants with significantly higher odds were those with co-morbidities (OR = 2.12; 95% CI: 1.08 – 4.17) and a history of stressful life events (OR = 3.21; 95% CI: 1.64 – 6.28). Conclusion Depression appears to be a significant problem in PHC settings in South Africa. Screening for depressive features at primary level, targeting those with chronic medical conditions, history of recent stressful life events and other known risk factors may improve detection rates, lead to earlier diagnosis and improved health outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mental health is closely related to the occurrence of hypertension, particularly the prognosis of hypertension patients. The role of psychotherapy in the occurrence, development, prevention, and prognosis of hypertension, remains to be clarified. METHODS/DESIGN We will conduct a prospective, double-blind, randomized, multiple-centers study. Eighty patients enrolled in this trial will be randomized at 1:1 ratio. The primary endpoint is will be the reduction of the patient psychological scale (PHQ-9) score. Secondary endpoints will be the drop in blood pressure, awareness of physical and mental health and self-efficacy scale. Measurements will be performed at baseline, 5-week (questionnaires only), 10-week (primary endpoint), using the Anxiety Screening Questionnaire (GAD-7) and Depression Scale (PHQ-9). Data analysis will be carried out using the SPSS v.25 software assuming a level of significance of 5%. Results will be analyzed using multilevel, regression analysis and hierarchical linear models. DISCUSSION We hope to provide some insight in the understanding the underlying mechanism of the novel mindfulness in the management of hypertension related psychological stress/disturbance, and will enable us to develop novel approach to manage essential hypertension and its related psychological disorders.

Effects of Gender and Age on Dietary Intake and Body Mass Index in Hypertensive Patients: Analysis of the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2020; 17:ijerph17124482. [PMID: 32580424 PMCID: PMC7345329 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph17124482] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2020] [Revised: 06/16/2020] [Accepted: 06/16/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Controlling weight and dietary intake are important for hypertensive patients to manage their blood pressure. However, the interaction effect of gender and age on weight and dietary intake is not well known. The aim of this study was to examine the main and interaction effects of age and gender on body mass index (BMI) and dietary intake in hypertensive patients. We analyzed data from 4287 participants with hypertension (1600 participants 45–64 years old and 2687 participants 65 years or older) who participated in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2013–2016). Two-way ANOVAs were conducted to examine the main and interaction effects of age and gender on BMI and dietary intake. Gender and age had significant main effects on BMI, intake of energy, cholesterol, sodium, and potassium. However, both gender and age illustrated interaction effects on BMI (F = 8.398, p = 0.004), energy intake (F = 12.882, p < 0.001), and cholesterol intake (F = 6.107, p = 0.014), while not showing any significant interaction effects on sodium (F = 3.547, p = 0.060) and potassium (F = 3.396, p = 0.066). Compared to the middle-aged group, BMI, energy intake, and cholesterol intake decreased in the older-aged group. However, the declines were steeper in men than in women. Therefore, both gender and age need to be considered for weight and dietary intake management for hypertensive patients.
