Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression and anxiety (DA) are common mental disorders in patients with chronic diseases, but the research regarding their prevalence in heart transplantation (HTx) is still limited. METHODS We performed an analysis of the prevalence and prognostic relevance of DA in patients who underwent HTx between 2010 and 2018 in Germany. Data were obtained from Allgemeine Ortskrankenkasse (AOK), which is the largest public health insurance provider. RESULTS Overall, 694 patients were identified. More than a third of them were diagnosed with DA before undergoing HTx (n = 260, 37.5%). Patients with DA more often had an ischaemic cardiomyopathy (p < 0.001) and a history of previous myocardial infarction (p = 0.001) or stroke (p = 0.002). The prevalence of hypertension (p < 0.001), diabetes (p = 0.004), dyslipidaemia (p < 0.001) and chronic kidney disease (p = 0.003) was higher amongst transplant recipients with DA. Patients with DA were more likely to suffer an ischaemic stroke (p < 0.001) or haemorrhagic stroke (p = 0.032), or develop septicaemia (p = 0.050) during hospitalisation for HTx. Our analysis found no significant differences between the groups with respect to in-hospital mortality. The female sex and mechanical circulatory support were associated with an inferior prognosis. Pretransplant non-ischaemic cardiomyopathy was related to a favourable outcome. CONCLUSIONS DA affect up to a third of the population undergoing HTx, with a greater prevalence in patients with comorbidities. DA are associated with a higher incidence of stroke and septicaemia after HTx.

Large-scale genetic correlation scanning and causal association between deep vein thrombosis and human blood metabolites. Sci Rep 2022; 12:7888.

Abstract
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) refers to the abnormal coagulation of blood in a deep vein. Recently, some studies have found that metabolites are related to the occurrence of DVT and may serve as new markers for the diagnosis of DVT. In this study, we used the GWAS summary dataset of blood metabolites and DVT to perform a large-scale genetic correlation scan of DVT and blood metabolites to explore the correlation between blood metabolites and DVT. We used GWAS summary data of DVT from the UK Biobank (UK Biobank fields: 20002) and GWAS summary data of blood metabolites from a previously published study (including 529 metabolites in plasma or serum from 7824 adults from two European population studies) for genetic correlation analysis. Then, we conducted a causal study between the screened blood metabolites and DVT by Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. In the first stage, genetic correlation analysis identified 9 blood metabolites that demonstrated a suggestive association with DVT. These metabolites included Valine (correlation coefficient = 0.2440, P value = 0.0430), Carnitine (correlation coefficient = 0.1574, P value = 0.0146), Hydroxytryptophan (correlation coefficient = 0.2376, P value = 0.0360), and 1-stearoylglycerophosphoethanolamine (correlation coefficient = - 0.3850, P value = 0.0258). Then, based on the IVW MR model, we analysed the causal relationship between the screened blood metabolites and DVT and found that there was a suggestive causal relationship between Hydroxytryptophan (exposure) and DVT (outcome) (β = - 0.0378, se = 0.0163, P = 0.0204). Our study identified a set of candidate blood metabolites that showed a suggestive association with DVT. We hope that our findings will provide new insights into the pathogenesis and diagnosis of DVT in the future.

Abstract
Fibrinolysis occurs when plasminogen activators, such as tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), convert plasminogen to plasmin, which dissolves the fibrin clot. The proteolytic activity of tPA and plasmin is not restricted to fibrin degradation. In the extravascular space, these two proteases modify a variety of substrates other than fibrin, playing a crucial role in physiological and pathological tissue remodeling. In the brain, for example, tPA and plasmin mediate the conversion of brain-derived neurotrophic factor precursor (proBDNF) to mature brain-derived neurotrophic factor precursor (BDNF). Thus, the fibrinolytic system influences processes reported to be dysfunctional in depression, including neurogenesis, synaptic plasticity, and reward processing. The hypothesis that decreased fibrinolytic activity is an important element in the pathogenesis of depression is supported by the association between depression and increased levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1, the main inhibitor of tPA. Also, various biochemical markers of depression induce PAI-1 synthesis, including hypercortisolism, hyperinsulinemia, hyperleptinemia, increased levels of cytokines, and hyperhomocysteinemia. Moreover, hypofibrinolysis provides a link between depression and emotional eating, binge eating, vegetarianism, and veganism. This paper discusses the role of reduced fibrinolytic activity in the bidirectional interplay between depression and its somatic manifestations and complications. It also reviews evidence that abnormal fibrinolysis links heterogeneous conditions associated with treatment-resistant depression. Understanding the role of hypofibrinolysis in depression may open new avenues for its treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Current evidence on antidepressant-related stroke or mortality risk is inconsistent. Because the elderly have the highest exposure to antidepressants, the aim was to quantify their association with stroke and mortality risks in this vulnerable population. METHODS Persons over 65 years old and registered in the Information System for Research in Primary Care of Catalonia during 2010-2015 comprised the study population. Antidepressant exposure was categorized into current-users, recent-users, past-users and antidepressant non-users (controls). The effect of antidepressant exposure on stroke or death, whichever came first, was analyzed by Cox regression adjusted for established risk factors. RESULTS Of the 1,068,117 participants included, 20% had antidepressant reimbursements during follow-up, 17% had a stroke and 3% died. The risk of experiencing stroke or death was higher in antidepressant current-users (hazard ratio [HR] 1.04; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02-1.06), recent-users (HR 3.34; 95% CI 3.27-3.41) and past-users (HR 2.06; 95% CI 2.02-2.10) compared to antidepressant non-users. Antidepressant current-use was associated with increased stroke (HR 1.56; 95% CI 1.50-1.61) but decreased mortality risk (HR 0.93; 95% CI 0.91-0.94). During antidepressant recent-use and past-use, both stroke and mortality risks were significantly increased compared to no antidepressant use. CONCLUSIONS Antidepressant use may be associated with increased stroke risk in the elderly. When using antidepressants in this population, the potential risks should be considered.

Abstract
Background Acupuncture for post-stroke depression (PSD) has been evolving, but uncertainty remains. To assess the existing evidence from randomized clinical trials (RCTs) of acupuncture for PSD, we sought to draw conclusions by synthesizing RCTs. Methods An exhaustive literature search was conducted in seven electronic databases from their inception dates to April 19, 2020, to identify systematic reviews (SRs) and meta-analyses (MAs) on this topic. The primary RCTs included in the SRs/MAs were identified. We also conducted a supplementary search for RCTs published from January 1, 2015, to May 12, 2020. Two reviewers extracted data separately and pooled data using RevMan 5.3 software. The quality of evidence was critically appraised with the Grades of Recommendation, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) system. Results A total of 17 RCTs involving 1402 patients were included. Meta-analysis showed that participants who received a combination of acupuncture and conventional treatments exhibited significantly lower scores on the HAM-D17, HAM-D24 and HAM-D (MD, − 5.08 [95% CI, − 6.48 to − 3.67], I2 = 0%), (MD, − 9.72 [95% CI, − 14.54 to − 4.91], I2 = 65%) and (MD, − 2.72 [95% CI, − 3.61 to − 1.82], respectively) than those who received conventional treatment. However, there was no significant difference in acupuncture versus antidepressants in terms of the 17-item, 24-item and HAM-D scales (MD, − 0.43 [95% CI, − 1.61 to 0.75], I2 = 51%), (MD, − 3.09 [95% CI, − 10.81 to 4.63], I2 = 90%) and (MD, − 1.55 [95% CI, − 4.36 to 1.26], I2 = 95%, respectively). For adverse events, acupuncture was associated with fewer adverse events than antidepressants (RR, 0.16 [95% CI, 0.07 to 0.39], I2 = 35%), but there was no significant difference in the occurrence of adverse events between the combination of acupuncture and conventional treatments versus conventional treatments (RR, 0.63 [95% CI, 0.21 to 1.83], I2 = 38%). The quality of evidence was low to very low due to the substantial heterogeneity among the included studies. Conclusions The current review indicates that acupuncture has greater effect on PSD and better safety profile than antidepressants, but high-quality evidence evaluating acupuncture for PSD is still needed.
