Gen Hosp Psychiatry 2024; 88:1-9. [PMID: 38428184 DOI: 10.1016/j.genhosppsych.2024.02.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 02/21/2024] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Biomarkers for depression in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) have not been identified. METHODS This study evaluated multiple serum biomarkers for depressive disorders after ACS. Thirteen serum biomarkers associated with seven functional systems, along with sociodemographic/clinical characteristics, were evaluated in 969 patients within 2 weeks after ACS onset (acute phase). In total, 711 patients were evaluated for depressive disorder using DSM-IV criteria 1 year later (chronic phase). Logistic regression was used for the analysis. RESULTS Depressive disorders were observed in 378 patients (39.0%) in the acute phase of ACS and 183 patients (25.7%) in the chronic phase. The weighted scores of five serum biomarkers (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, homocysteine, troponin I, and creatine kinase-MB) were significantly associated with depressive disorder diagnosis in the acute phase, and the weighted scores of three other biomarkers (tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1 beta, and homocysteine) were significantly associated with depressive disorders in the chronic phase, in a dose-dependent manner after adjusting for relevant covariates (all P-values <0.001). CONCLUSIONS The combination of several serum biomarkers exhibited robust associations with depressive disorders in both the acute and chronic phases of ACS.

Abstract
Importance Biomarkers of lipid, apolipoprotein, and carbohydrate metabolism have been previously suggested to be associated with the risk for depression, anxiety, and stress-related disorders, but results are inconsistent. Objective To examine whether the biomarkers of carbohydrate, lipid, and apolipoprotein metabolism are associated with the risk of depression, anxiety, and stress-related disorders. Design, Setting, and Participants This population-based cohort study with longitudinal data collection assessed 211 200 participants from the Apolipoprotein-Related Mortality Risk (AMORIS) cohort who underwent occupational health screening between January 1, 1985, and December 31, 1996, mainly in the Stockholm region in Sweden. Statistical analysis was performed during 2022 to 2023. Exposures Lipid, apolipoprotein, and carbohydrate biomarkers measured in blood. Main Outcomes and Measures The associations between biomarker levels and the risk of developing depression, anxiety, and stress-related disorders through the end of 2020 were examined using Cox proportional hazards regression models. In addition, nested case-control analyses were conducted within the cohort, including all incident cases of depression, anxiety, and stress-related disorders, and up to 10 control individuals per case who were individually matched to the case by year of birth, sex, and year of enrollment to the AMORIS cohort, using incidence density sampling. Population trajectories were used to illustrate the temporal trends in biomarker levels for cases and controls. Results A total of 211 200 individuals (mean [SD] age at first biomarker measurement, 42.1 [12.6] years; 122 535 [58.0%] male; 188 895 [89.4%] born in Sweden) participated in the study. During a mean (SD) follow-up of 21.0 (6.7) years, a total of 16 256 individuals were diagnosed with depression, anxiety, or stress-related disorders. High levels of glucose (hazard ratio [HR], 1.30; 95% CI, 1.20-1.41) and triglycerides (HR, 1.15; 95% CI, 1.10-1.20) were associated with an increased subsequent risk of all tested psychiatric disorders, whereas high levels of high-density lipoprotein (HR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.80-0.97) were associated with a reduced risk. These results were similar for male and female participants as well as for all tested disorders. The nested case-control analyses demonstrated that patients with depression, anxiety, or stress-related disorders had higher levels of glucose, triglycerides, and total cholesterol during the 20 years preceding diagnosis, as well as higher levels of apolipoprotein A-I and apolipoprotein B during the 10 years preceding diagnosis, compared with control participants. Conclusions and Relevance In this cohort study of more than 200 000 participants, high levels of glucose and triglycerides and low levels of high-density lipoprotein were associated with future risk of depression, anxiety, and stress-related disorders. These findings may support closer follow-up of individuals with metabolic dysregulations for the prevention and diagnosis of psychiatric disorders.

J Affect Disord 2024; 349:400-406. [PMID: 38199404 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2024.01.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 11/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Both abnormal glucose metabolism and anxiety have been reported to be common in major depressive disorder (MDD). However, few studies have explored glucose disturbances in first-episode and drug-naive (FEDN) MDD patients with anxiety. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence and risk factors of glucose disturbance in FEND MDD patients comorbid with anxiety. METHODS 1718 FEDN MDD patients were included in this study. The positive subscale of the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS), Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA), and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) were used to measure psychotic, anxiety and depressive symptoms respectively. Sociodemographic and biochemical indicators were also collected. RESULTS The prevalence of glucose disorders in MDD patients combined with anxiety was 15.7 %, significantly higher than in MDD patients without anxiety symptoms (7.1 %). Glucose disturbances were associated with HAMD score, HAMA score, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb), anti-thyroglobulin (TGAb), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C), fasting blood glucose (FBG), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), suicide attempts, and psychotic symptoms. Further logistic regression showed that illness duration, TSH, TGAb, and TPOAb levels were correlates of glucose disturbances in MDD patients with anxiety. LIMITATIONS No causal relationship could be drawn due to the cross-sectional design. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that TSH, TGAb and TPOAb may be promising biomarkers of glucose disturbances in MDD comorbid with anxiety, suggesting the importance of regular assessment of thyroid function parameters for abnormal glucose metabolism prevention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The co-disease of depression and gout is becoming more common in the modern era. However, the relationship between the severity of depressive symptoms and gout prevalence and treatment rate was still unclear. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the relationship between the prevalence, treatment rate of gout, and the severity of depression in the United States. METHOD The cross-sectional analysis of the 2007-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) for participants with depression was performed. According to their Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) scores, participants were categorized as none, mild, moderate, moderately severe, and severe. To learn the correlation between the severity of depressive symptoms and the prevalence and treatment rate of gout using multivariate logistic regression to control for confounder interference. RESULTS A total of 25 022 patients were included in this study. As the severity of the depressive symptoms worsened (Mild, Moderate and Moderately severe), the risk of gout increased in non-adjusted model and model 1,2,3 (p-value for trend =.01 in non-adjusted model, <.0001 in model 1, <.01 in models 2 and 3; prevalence group in Model 1, aOR1.71, 95% CI (1.40, 2.08) in the mild group, aOR1.68, 95% CI (1.19, 2.39) in the moderate group, aOR1.31,95% CI (0.82, 2.11) in the moderately severe group, aOR1.21, 95% CI (0.62, 2.38) in the severe group). However, the lower gout prevalence trend has no statistical significance after adjusting all factors in Model 4(p-value for trend =.98). Compared with patients without depression, only a few patients received treatment, especially patients with severe depression (none, 80.1%; severe, 0.2%). The more severe the depression, the lower the treatment rate (p-value for trend: non-adjusted model, p < .001; model 1, p = .05; model 2, p = .02; model 3, p = .03). CONCLUSION Compared with patients without depression, the patients with depression had a higher risk of gout. With the aggravation of depression, the prevalence of gout and the rate of treatment both were decreased. Patients with gout and depression need to receive multidisciplinary care after diagnosis. However, currently, treatment cannot meet the needs of the current patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies have investigated the relative factors of thyroid dysfunction in major depressive disorder (MDD) patients with Metabolic syndrome (MetS). This study aimed to explore the prevalence and related factors associated with thyroid dysfunction in drug-naïve (FEDN) MDD patients with MetS. METHODS 1718 FEDN MDD patients were recruited and their demographic data, clinical data were collected. Various biochemical indicators including fasting blood glucose (FBG), blood lipids and thyroid hormones were measured. The 17-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD-17), 14-item Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA-14) and positive subscale of the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) were used to assess clinical symptoms. RESULTS Among FEDN MDD patients, MetS was an independent risk factor for TSH abnormality (P < 0.001, Adjusted OR = 3.77, 95%CI: 2.82-5.05). In patients with MetS, those with TSH abnormality had significantly longer duration of illness, higher HAMD, HAMA, and PANSS positive subscale scores, higher levels of TC, LDL-C, blood glucose, pressure, lower levels of HDL-C, and a higher probability of suicide attempt (all P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS MetS is significantly associated with thyroid dysfunction in patients with FEDN MDD. Related factors for thyroid dysfunction include a number of clinical indicators and psychiatric symptoms.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are common in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). This study aimed to explore the prevalence and clinical factors of MetS in first-episode and drug-naïve MDD (FEDND) patients with and without hyperglycemia. A total of 1,718 FEDND patients' symptoms were assessed using the Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), and positive subscale of the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Blood glucose levels, metabolic index, and thyroid hormones were measured during fasting. The prevalence of MetS in FEDND patients with hyperglycemia was 35.67 times higher than in FEDND patients without hyperglycemia. FEDND patients with MetS were older, had later age of onset, and were predominantly married than those without MetS (p < 0.05). Among FEDND patients without hyperglycemia, suicide attempts, severe anxiety, HAMD, HAMA, PANSS subscale scores, thyroid stimulating hormone, antithyroglobulin, and total cholesterol levels were all higher in patients with MetS than those without MetS (all p < 0.05). In FEDND patients without hyperglycemia, the combination of age and TgAb distinguished those patients with and without MetS. Our results suggest a high prevalence of MetS in FEDND patients with hyperglycemia. Several clinical variables and thyroid function-related hormones impact MetS in patients with FEDND.

Abstract
Purpose Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a mood disorder characterized by persistent spontaneous depression and has a high rate of disability and mortality. There is a complex relationship between MDD and disorders of glucose metabolism, and our study aimed to investigate the prevalence and risk factors for hyperglycemia in patients with MDD who were hospitalized for the first times. Patients and Methods A total of 981 first-time inpatients with MDD were recruited, socio-demographic information, anthropometric data, and biochemical parameters were collected for each participant. The 17-item Hamilton Assessment Scale for Depression (HAMD-17), the 14-item Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA-14), the Positive Syndrome Scale (PSS), and Clinical General Impressions Inventory-Severity of Illness (CGI-SI) scores were used to assess patients' clinical symptoms. Results The prevalence of hyperglycemia was 9.28% among patients with MDD who were hospitalized for the first time. Compared to the non-hyperglycemic subgroup, patients in the hyperglycemic subgroup were found to have more extensive and significant demographic and clinical characteristics, higher levels of metabolism-related parameters, and more severe psychological and psycho-pathological symptoms. Age, thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), triglycerides (TG) were risk factors for hyperglycemia in MDD patients, while course of disease was a protective factor. Conclusion The study findings suggest that the prevalence of hyperglycemia is not high in patients with MDD who are hospitalized for the first time. The risk variables for predicting hyperglycemia include age, TSH and TG. The above three factors and course of disease have good combined diagnostic ability for hyperglycemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gender differences in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) are commonly reported; however, gender differences in first-episode and drug-naïve (FEDN) MDD patients with comorbid suicide attempts have not been reported. This study aimed to examine potential gender differences in the prevalence and clinical correlates of comorbid abnormal thyroid function (ATF) in FEDN MDD patients with comorbid suicide attempts. METHODS A cross-sectional study of 1718 FEDN MDD patients was conducted. The demographic and clinical data were collected. The Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), the Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) were used to assess depression, anxiety and psychotic symptoms, respectively. Thyroid function parameters and blood glucose levels were measured. RESULTS There was no gender difference in the prevalence of ATF between male (78.6%, 88/112) and female MDD patients (74.8%, 175/234) with comorbid suicide attempts. In the male and female subgroups, duration of disease, HAMD score, HAMA score, anti-thyroglobulin (TgAb), thyroid peroxidases antibody (TPOAb), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), systolic blood pressure (SBP), glucose level and the rate of psychotic symptoms were higher in patients with ATF than those without ATF in MDD with comorbid suicide attempt (all P < 0.05). There was a gender main effect only on SBP (F = 7.35, P = 0.007). Furthermore, binary logistic regression analysis showed that HAMD score, DBP and glucose levels were independently with ATF in both male and female MDD patients with comorbid suicide attempts. However, anxiety symptoms, psychotic symptoms and TPOAb levels were significantly associated with ATF only in female MDD patients with comorbid suicide attempts. CONCLUSION Our study showed no gender differences in the prevalence of ATF in FEDN MDD patients with comorbid suicide attempts. Depression, DBP and glucose levels were associated with ATF in both male and female MDD patients with comorbid suicide attempts, whereas anxiety, psychotic symptoms and TPOAb level were correlated with ATF only in female MDD patients with suicide attempts.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Studies have shown an association between abnormal lipid profiles and MDD, but there are few studies on the clinical correlates of lipid abnormalities in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of abnormal lipid metabolism and its correlates in Chinese first-episode and drug-naïve MDD patients, which has not yet been reported. METHODS A total of 1718 outpatients with first-episode and drug-naïve MDD were included. Demographic data were collected by a standardized questionnaire and blood lipid levels were measured, including total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein (HDL-C). The Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) positive subscale, and Clinical Global Impression of Severity Scale (CGI-S) were assessed for each patient. RESULTS The prevalence of abnormal lipid metabolism was 72.73% (1301/1718), and the rates of high TC, high TG, high LDL-C and low HDL-C were 51.05% (877/1718), 61.18% (1051/1718), 30.09% (517/1718), 23.40% (402/1718), respectively. Logistic regression showed the risk factors for abnormal lipid metabolism were severe anxiety, HAMD score, CGI-S score, BMI and systolic blood pressure (SBP). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age at onset, SBP, HAMD score, HAMA score, PANSS positive subscale score, and CGI-S were independently associated with TC levels. BMI, HAMD score, PANSS positive subscale score and CGI-S score were independently associated with TG levels. SBP, HAMD score, PANSS positive subscale score and CGI-S score were independently associated with LDL-C levels. Age of onset, SBP and CGI-S score were independently associated with HDL-C levels. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of abnormal lipid metabolism in first-episode and drug-naïve MDD patients is quite high. The severity of psychiatric symptoms may be closely associated with the presence of abnormal lipid metabolism in patients with MDD.

Effects of Metabolic Syndrome and Sex on Stress Coping Strategies in Individuals with Depressive Disorder. Metabolites 2023; 13:metabo13050652. [PMID: 37233693 DOI: 10.3390/metabo13050652] [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: 02/27/2023] [Revised: 04/26/2023] [Accepted: 05/08/2023] [Indexed: 05/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is related to depression and contributes to reduced life expectancy in individuals with mental disorders. Stress coping strategies are important factors in the development and maintenance of depressive disorders and have been related to metabolic disturbances. The aim of this study was to determine whether there is a difference in the use of positive (re- and devaluation, distraction, and control) and negative stress coping strategies in relation to patients' MetS. A sample of 363 individuals (n female = 204, n male = 159) with a diagnosis of depression was measured with the Stress Coping Style Questionnaire and the Beck Depression Inventory. In addition, we collected data on MetS (waist circumference, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein, fasting glucose/diabetes, blood pressure/hypertonia) according to the International Diabetes Federation. A 2 × 2 design including Mets (with vs. without) and sex (female vs. male) was performed to test for differences in stress coping strategies. Individuals with depression and MetS scored higher on distraction strategies than depressed individuals without MetS (p < 0.01, corrected with false discovery rate). In addition, we found sex differences in stress coping strategies indicating that women with depression scored higher on distraction strategies (p < 0.001, FDR corrected), as well as negative strategies (p < 0.001, FDR corrected), than men. No significant interaction between MetS and sex was found regarding the higher value of stress coping strategies. Findings suggest that individuals with depression and MetS used distraction strategies to a higher amount to cope with stress, which could be stress eating in some cases, than those without MetS. Women with depressive disorders had higher values than men on other coping strategies in our sample of individuals with depression. A better understanding of MetS and sex-specific differences in stress coping strategies might help to plan more effective preventive strategies and personalized treatment options for depression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this meta-analysis was to quantitatively analyze the association between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and the risk of depressive symptoms. METHODS Three electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, and PsycINFO) were searched for articles published through February 15, 2022. Cohort studies evaluating the association between MetS and depressive symptoms were selected for inclusion in this study. A random-effects model was used to evaluate the pooled estimates of MetS, including each of its components, associated with depressive symptoms. RESULTS A total of 11 cohort studies were selected including >2.65 million participants. There was a significant association between MetS and depressive symptoms risk, albeit with a high degree of heterogeneity (relative risk = 1.29, 95 % confidence interval: 1.12-1.48; I2 = 79.3 %). This association was consistently significant in Western countries, but it was not significant in Asian countries. When stratified by sex, age, and geographical region, MetS and its components exhibited varying degrees of association with depressive symptoms. CONCLUSIONS MetS is a risk factor for depressive symptoms. Further large-scale prospective cohort studies are required to confirm our findings.

Abstract
AIMS Thyroid dysfunction and metabolic disturbances are common in major depressive disorder (MDD) patients. We aimed to assess the relationship between thyroid dysfunction, metabolic disturbances, and clinical symptoms in Chinese first-episode, drug-naïve (FEDN) MDD patients using undirected and Bayesian network methods. METHODS 1718 FEDN MDD patients were recruited. Serum levels of free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), anti-thyroglobulin (TgAb), thyroid peroxidases antibody (TPOAb), total cholesterol (TC), total triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C), and glucose were assessed. Blood pressure and body mass index were measured. Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD), Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety, and positive subscale of Positive And Negative Syndrome Scales were used to detect clinical symptoms. An undirected network with EBICglasso default and a directed acyclic graph (DAG) using the Bayesian network approach was conducted. RESULTS The prevalence rates of clinical symptoms, thyroid dysfunction, and metabolic dysfunction were as follows: anxiety (n=894, 52%), psychotic symptoms (171, 10%), subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH, n=1041, 61%), abnormal TgAb (n=297, 17%), abnormal TPOAb (n=438, 25%), hyperthyroidism (n=5, 0.3%), hypothyroidism (n=3, 0.2%), hyperglycemia (n=241, 14%), hypertriglyceridemia (n=668, 39%), low HDL-C (n=429, 25%), hypercholesterolemia (421, 25%), abnormal TC (357, 21%), abnormal LDL-C (185, 11%). overweight or obesity (n=1026, 60%), and hypertension (n=92, 5.4%). Both networks demonstrated serum TSH and TC levels and the severity of depression played an important role in the pathophysiology of MDD. CONCLUSIONS MDD patients may have thyroid and metabolic dysfunction in the early stage. Targeting hypercholesterolemia, depressive symptoms, and SCH in MDD patients may hold promise in reducing clinical symptoms, metabolic disturbances, and thyroid dysfunction.

Polygenic Liability to Depression Is Associated With Multiple Medical Conditions in the Electronic Health Record: Phenome-wide Association Study of 46,782 Individuals. Biol Psychiatry 2022; 92:923-931. [PMID: 35965108 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopsych.2022.06.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2021] [Revised: 04/01/2022] [Accepted: 06/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a leading cause of disease-associated disability, with much of the increased burden due to psychiatric and medical comorbidity. This comorbidity partly reflects common genetic influences across conditions. Integrating molecular-genetic tools with health records enables tests of association with the broad range of physiological and clinical phenotypes. However, standard phenome-wide association studies analyze associations with individual genetic variants. For polygenic traits such as MDD, aggregate measures of genetic risk may yield greater insight into associations across the clinical phenome. METHODS We tested for associations between a genome-wide polygenic risk score for MDD and medical and psychiatric traits in a phenome-wide association study of 46,782 unrelated, European-ancestry participants from the Michigan Genomics Initiative. RESULTS The MDD polygenic risk score was associated with 211 traits from 15 medical and psychiatric disease categories at the phenome-wide significance threshold. After excluding patients with depression, continued associations were observed with respiratory, digestive, neurological, and genitourinary conditions; neoplasms; and mental disorders. Associations with tobacco use disorder, respiratory conditions, and genitourinary conditions persisted after accounting for genetic overlap between depression and other psychiatric traits. Temporal analyses of time-at-first-diagnosis indicated that depression disproportionately preceded chronic pain and substance-related disorders, while asthma disproportionately preceded depression. CONCLUSIONS The present results can inform the biological links between depression and both mental and systemic diseases. Although MDD polygenic risk scores cannot currently forecast health outcomes with precision at the individual level, as molecular-genetic discoveries for depression increase, these tools may augment risk prediction for medical and psychiatric conditions.

Abstract
Cardiometabolic syndrome (CMetS) has recently emerged as a serious public health concern, particularly for individuals living with chronic conditions. This study aimed to determine the incidence and prevalence of CMetS, as well as the risk factors linked with it, in HIV-positive and HIV-negative adult patients. Methods A comparative cohort study was designed. The National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) and the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) tools were used to determine the outcome variables. Association studies were done using logistic regression. Result CMetS was found to have a greater point and period prevalence, and incidence estimation in HIV-negative than HIV+ patients using both the NCEP and the IDF tools. Using the NCEP tool, the risk of obesity was 44.1% [odds ratio (OR) = 0.559, 95% confidence interval (CI), (0.380-0.824); P = 0.003] lower in HIV+ than in HIV-negative participants. By contrast, no apparent difference was noted using the IDF tool. Similarly, hyperglycemia [OR = 0.651, 95% CI (0.457-0.926); P = 0.017], and hypertension [OR = 0.391, 95% CI (0.271-0.563); P < 0.001] were shown to be lower in HIV+ patients than HIV-negative patients by 34.9% and 60.9%, respectively. The study revealed significant variation in all biomarkers across the follow-up period in both HIV+ and HIV-negative participants, except for SBP. Conclusions CMetS caused more overall disruption in HIV-negative people with chronic diseases than in HIV-positive people. All of the indicators used to assess the increased risk of CMetS were equally meaningful in HIV+ and HIV-negative subjects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Major depressive disorder (MDD) is often comorbid with other chronic and/or serious diseases. However, little is known about the prevalence of various diseases that are present before MDD onset. We examined the prevalence of all pre-existing diseases in the 12 months before an MDD diagnosis. DESIGN Exploratory nested case-control study. SETTING Data, including diagnoses based on International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th revision codes, were from a Japanese health insurance database (JMDC). PARTICIPANTS Adults newly diagnosed with MDD during 2015, 2016 or 2017 (but not the preceding year) (cases) were matched (exact) 1:10 to controls by age, sex, index date and working status. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome was the proportion of patients in each group with each pre-existing disease during the 12 months before the index date (ie, before MDD diagnosis in cases). Odds ratios (ORs) for onset of MDD were calculated for each pre-existing disease. A post hoc multivariate analysis examined interactions of metabolic risk factors (diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidaemia), psychiatric disorders (sleep disorders, psychiatric disorders other than depression) and MDD-related symptoms (headache, pain, autonomic nerve imbalance) on MDD diagnosis. RESULTS There were 13 420 cases and 134 200 controls (mean age 41.9 years; 66.5% male). The prevalence of almost all pre-existing diseases was higher in cases than in controls. The highest ORs (5.8-21.0) were for psychiatric diseases and sleep disorders. Insomnia (21.1% of patients; OR 8.7) and neurosis (9.7%; OR 10.6) were particularly prevalent in the case group. The odds of MDD increased in the presence of metabolic risk factors, psychiatric disorders and/or MDD-related symptoms. CONCLUSIONS There is a high prevalence of pre-existing diseases in Japanese patients who develop MDD compared with matched controls without MDD. These results suggest that patients with chronic and/or serious diseases should be actively monitored for depression.

Abstract
This narrative review discusses how peripheral and central inflammation processes affect brain function and structure in depression, and reports on recent peripheral inflammatory marker-based functional and structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies from the perspective of neural-circuit dysfunction in depression. Chronic stress stimulates the activity of microglial cells, which increases the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the brain. In addition, microglial activation promotes a shift from the synthesis of serotonin to the synthesis of neurotoxic metabolites of the kynurenine pathway, which induces glutamate-mediated excitotoxicity in neurons. Furthermore, the region specificity of microglial activation is hypothesized to contribute to the vulnerability of specific brain regions in the depression-related neural circuits to inflammation-mediated brain injury. MRI studies are increasingly investigating how the blood levels of inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α are associated with functional and structural neuroimaging markers in depression. Functional MRI studies have found that peripheral inflammatory markers are associated with aberrant activation patterns and altered functional connectivity in neural circuits involved in emotion regulation, reward processing, and cognitive control in depression. Structural MRI studies have suggested that peripheral inflammatory markers are related to reduced cortical gray matter and subcortical volumes, cortical thinning, and decreased integrity of white matter tracts within depression-related neural circuits. These neuroimaging findings may improve our understanding of the relationships between neuroinflammatory processes at the molecular level and macroscale in vivo neuralcircuit dysfunction in depression.

Abstract
Background We aimed to identify specific patterns of physical multimorbidity, defined as the presence of two or more physical long-term conditions, and to examine the extent to which these specific patterns could predict future incident and persistent common mental health disorders (CMDs) in middle-aged adults enrolled in the UK Biobank. Methods We assessed prospective associations between physical multimorbidity status at the baseline assessment (2006–2010) and depression and anxiety ‘caseness’ according to the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ)-9 and the Generalised Anxiety Disorder Assessment (GAD)-7 at the follow-up assessment (2016) in 154,367 middle-aged adults enrolled in the UK Biobank (median age: 57 years, interquartile range = 50–62 years, 56.5% female, mean duration of follow-up: 7.6 years, standard deviation = 0.87). Patterns of physical multimorbidity were identified using exploratory factor analysis. Logistic regression was used to assess prospective associations between physical multimorbidity patterns at baseline and both incident and persistent depression and anxiety at follow-up. Findings Compared to those with no physical multimorbidity, having two (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) =1.41, 95%CI 1.32 to 1.53), three (aOR = 1.94, 95%CI 1.76 to 2.14), four (aOR = 2.38, 95%CI 2.07 to 2.74), and five or more (aOR = 2.89, 95%CI 2.42 to 3.45) physical conditions was prospectively associated with incident depression at follow-up in a dose response manner. Similar trends emerged for incident anxiety, persistent depression, and persistent anxiety, but associations were strongest for incident CMDs. Regarding specific patterns of physical MM, the respiratory pattern (aOR = 3.23, 95%CI 2.44 to 4.27) and the pain/gastrointestinal pattern (aOR = 2.19, 95%CI 1.92 to 2.50) emerged as the strongest predictors of incident depression. Similar results emerged for incident anxiety. Interpretation These findings highlight patterns of physical multimorbidity with the poorest prognosis for both emerging and persisting depression and anxiety. These findings might have significant implications for the implementation of integrated mental and physical healthcare and facilitate the development of targeted preventative interventions and treatment for those with physical multimorbidity.

Abstract
The aim of this meta-analysis was to provide a comprehensive synthesis of the evidence examining biomarker signatures in MDD patients including lipids, lipid regulatory proteins (LRP), and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) as compared to healthy individuals. We performed meta-analyses and meta-regression of the studies comparing lipid, LRP, and PUFA levels between MDD patients and healthy individuals by searching Embase, Ovid Medline, Scopus, PsycINFO, PubMed, and Cochrane databases. Search was performed in these databases up to September 2019 and 29 studies were included. Levels of lipid parameter triglyceride (TG) (SMD 0.55, 95% CI 0.30-0.80, p < 0.0001) were higher while total cholesterol (TC) (SMD = -0.46, 95%CI -0.93 to -0.001, p = 0.04) and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) (SMD = -0.46, 95%CI -0.71 to -0.20, p = 0.02) were lower in MDD patients than controls. Subgroup analysis for age showed that the levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) were lower in ≥40-year age group (SMD = -0.38, 95%CI -0.70 to -0.06, p = 0.01) and levels of TC was lower in MDD patients in studies from Asian countries (SMD = -0.74, 95%CI -1.37 to -0.10, p = 0.02). TG levels were found to be high all subgroups in MDD patients than controls. A negative association between TC levels and use of lipid lowering medications and a positive association between smoking and LDL levels was found using meta-regression analysis. This study will be useful for physicians when considering the assessment of lipidand LRP profiles in MDD patients to reduce the cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.

The prevalence and related factors of metabolic syndrome in outpatients with first-episode drug-naive major depression comorbid with anxiety. Sci Rep 2021; 11:3324. [PMID: 33558554 PMCID: PMC7870819 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-81653-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2020] [Accepted: 01/06/2021] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is associated with depression, but its role in major depressive disorder comorbid with anxiety (AMD) is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and clinical correlates of MetS in first-episode drug-naive (FEDN) patients with AMD in a Chinese Han population. In total, 1380 FEDN outpatients with AMD were recruited in this cross-sectional study. The sociodemographic features, clinical characteristics, history of suicide attempts, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels, and MetS parameters of each subject were evaluated. All subjects were rated on the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D), Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A), and the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale positive symptom subscale. The prevalence of MetS among AMD patients was 8.04%. Compared to the non-MetS group, age, age of onset, TSH level, HAM-A and HAM-D scores, history of attempted suicide, and comorbid psychiatric symptoms were higher in the MetS group. Those in this group were also more likely to be married, and they had a lower educational level. Furthermore, age, psychiatric symptoms, suicide attempts, and higher TSH levels were independently associated with MetS in AMD patients. This study suggests a lower prevalence of MetS in FEDN patients with AMD in a Chinese Han population. Older age, comorbid psychiatric symptoms, history of attempted suicide, and higher TSH levels are related factors for MetS in AMD patients.

Wen Y, Liu G, Shang Y, Wang Q. Association of Depression with Metabolic Syndrome in Highly Educated Ethnic Koreans of China: A Case-Control Study. Neuropsychiatr Dis Treat 2021; 17:57-66. [PMID: 33447037 PMCID: PMC7802915 DOI: 10.2147/ndt.s280716] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2020] [Accepted: 11/30/2020] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ethnic Koreans in China are a distinct minority group. Highly educated populations are at high risk of depression. The aim of this study was to explore the associations of depression and metabolic syndrome (MS) in highly educated ethnic Koreans in China, and determine whether the associations were dependent on gender. METHODS From March 11th to 27th 2017, the natural population of 18-70 year olds was continuously screened at Yanbian Korean Autonomous Region. Those who met the inclusion criteria were invited to complete Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS). The people with SDS >53 were assigned to depression group and those with SDS ≤ 53 were assigned to the control group. Demographic characteristics, clinical factors, life-style factors and family history were collected and compared. Besides, associations of depression with MS and its components were estimated by Spearman correlation analysis and logistic regression analysis. RESULTS The depression group included 367 highly educated ethnic Koreans with depression status and the control group consisted of 388 age-, education-, and gender-matched ethnic Koreans without depression. A significantly higher prevalence of MS was observed in males and females with depression status relative to the control subjects (males, 28.5% vs 6.3%, X2 = 16.162, P-value < 0.001; females, 33.0% vs 7.5%, X2 = 57.896, P-value < 0.001). Depression status was positively correlated with MS in males (r = 0.311, P-value < 0.01) and females (r = 0.332, P-value < 0.01). After adjusting for potential confounding factors, mild and moderate depression statuses were found to be significantly associated with MS development in male and female ethnic Koreans, respectively. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest a close link between depression and MS independent of gender in highly educated ethnic Koreans of China.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Multimorbidity refers to the individual has two or more medical conditions, which include physical multimorbidity (two or more physical conditions), mental multimorbidity (two or more mental conditions) and physical and mental multimorbidity (one or more mental and one or more physical conditions). This study is to assess the relationship between multimorbidity and suicidal ideation (SI) by conducting a meta-analysis. METHODS Through using subject word and random word, Web of Science, Cochrane Library and PubMed were searched for related records up to March 2020. The Newcastle-Ottawa scale and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality were used to evaluate the quality of included studies. Subgroup and sensitivity analysis were performed. The publication bias was evaluated by the funnel plots, Begg's test and Egger's test. RESULTS A total of 19 studies were included for analysis. The pooled odd ratio (OR) for the association between multimorbidity and SI was 2.90 (95%CI 2.29-3.67, P < .001). Subgroup analysis based on nature of study, category of multimorbidity, country, whether adjusted the covariates, and quality ratings was performed. The result of sensitivity analysis indicated that no individual studies had a substantial impact on the pooled OR. There was no publication bias in the studies. CONCLUSIONS Multimorbidity is one important factor in increased risk of SI. It is critical to assessing SI among patients with multimorbidity in primary care and specialty medical practices, particularly among physical and mental multimorbidity patients who may have higher risk of SI.

Abstract
Background Comorbidity is of significant concern in multiple sclerosis (MS). Few population-based studies have reported conditions occurring in MS after diagnosis, especially in contemporary cohorts. Objective To explore incident comorbidity, mortality and hospitalizations in MS, stratified by age and sex. Methods In a Swedish population-based cohort study 6602 incident MS patients (aged ≥18 years) and 61,828 matched MS-free individuals were identified between 1 January 2008 and 31 December 2016, using national registers. Incidence rates (IRs) and incidence rate ratios (IRRs) with 95% CI were calculated for each outcome. Results IRs of cardiovascular disease (CVD) were higher among MS patients than MS-free individuals, (major adverse CVD: IRR 1.42; 95% CI 1.12–1.82; hemorrhagic/ischemic stroke: 1.46; 1.05–2.02; transient ischemic attack: 1.65; 1.09–2.50; heart failure: 1.55; 1.15–2.10); venous thromboembolism: 1.42; 1.14–1.77). MS patients also had higher risks of several non-CVDs such as autoimmune conditions (IRR 3.83; 3.01–4.87), bowel dysfunction (2.16; 1.86–2.50), depression (2.38; 2.11–2.68), and fractures (1.32; 1.19–1.47), as well as being hospitalized and to suffer from CVD-related deaths ((1.91; 1.00–3.65), particularly in females (3.57; 1.58–8.06)). Conclusion MS-patients experience a notable comorbidity burden which emphasizes the need for integrated disease management in order to improve patient care and long-term outcomes of MS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The present study aimed to assess the cumulative incidence of major depressive disorder (MDD) among rural Chinese residents. Furthermore, we intended to estimate whether metabolic syndrome (MetS) was associated with MDD by both cross-sectional and prospective analysis. METHOD Data of 11,675 residents (46.3% men) was used for cross-sectional analysis. The residents were followed up with median 4.66 years. MDD was diagnosed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). The data of 2796 individuals without any depressive symptoms was used for prospective analysis. RESULT With median of 4.66 years follow-up, the cumulative incidence of MDD among rural residents was 3.9%. Women had significantly higher cumulative incidence of MDD than men (5.3% for women and 2.9% for men, P < 0.01). The incidence of MDD was significantly higher among women with MetS (7.3% vs. 3.8%, P < 0.001), hypertriglyceridemia (7.0% vs. 4.5%, P < 0.001) or elevated blood pressure (6.4% vs. 3.4%, P < 0.001) at baseline compared with those without them. There was no incidence difference of MDD among men with or without baseline metabolic disorders. In prospective study, after adjusting possible confounders, baseline MetS was associated with higher incidence of MDD (OR: 1.82, 95%CI: 1.01, 3.27, P = 0.045) in women but not men (OR: 1.84, 95%CI: 0.88, 3.83, P = 0.104). CONCLUSION Cumulative incidence of MDD in rural China was higher among women than among men. Baseline MetS was associated with higher cumulative incidence of MDD in women but not men. More concern should be put on women with MetS in case of onset depressive symptom in future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lipid profile disturbances are frequently observed in major depressive disorder (MDD) and constitute to high mortality rates. However, less is known about whether this risk is present in patients with first-episode MDD. Therefore, this meta-analysis was conducted to examine if lipid parameters differed between healthy controls and first-episode MDD patients. METHODS Cochrane Library, PubMed, PsycINFO, EMBASE, Chinese Journal Net, and WanFang databases were searched from inception to October 23, 2018. The primary outcomes were triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and total cholesterol levels. RESULTS A total of 11 case-control studies compared 690 subjects with first-episode MDD and 614 healthy controls were included and analyzed. Compared to healthy controls, patients with first-episode MDD were significantly associated with higher triglyceride (SMD = 0.29, 95% CI: 0.09, 0.48, P = 0.004) and lower HDL cholesterol levels (SMD = -0.54, 95% CI: -0.86, -0.22, P = 0.001). Subgroup analyses revealed that first-episode MDD patients with higher triglyceride and lower HDL levels were found only in Chinese and plasma group when compared to healthy controls (P < 0.05). Meta-regression analysis showed that the significant heterogeneity for triglyceride and HDL cholesterol was partly explained by the quality of study. No significant difference was found in LDL cholesterol and total cholesterol levels between the two groups. LIMITATIONS Heterogeneity was relatively high among the included studies. CONCLUSIONS Elevated triglyceride and decreased HDL cholesterol levels may be associated with first-episode MDD. Findings support early lipid monitoring and interventions targeting healthy lifestyle.

Abstract
Oxidative stress- (OS-) related endothelial damage is involved in the occurrence and progression of several disorders, such as vascular depression and dementia. It has been reported that moderate, aerobic, physical exercise could reduce OS and inflammation, thus limiting the cardiovascular risk factors while improving endothelial homeostasis, mood, and cognition. In this review, we will discuss about the role of OS and OS-related endothelial damage in vascular depression and vascular cognitive impairment. Then, we will comment on the effects of physical exercise on both disorders.

Abstract
The study of diagnostic associations entails a large number of methodological problems regarding the application of machine learning algorithms, collinearity and wide variability being some of the most prominent ones. To overcome these, we propose and tested the usage of uniform manifold approximation and projection (UMAP), a very recent, popular dimensionality reduction technique. We showed its effectiveness by using it on a large Spanish clinical database of patients diagnosed with depression, to whom we applied UMAP before grouping them using a hierarchical agglomerative cluster analysis. By extensively studying its behavior and results, validating them with purely unsupervised metrics, we show that they are consistent with well-known relationships, which validates the applicability of UMAP to advance the study of comorbidities.
