Abstract
INTRODUCTION Depression significantly impacts the quality of life and medical care in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). This study assesses the burden of depression in adults aged 40 years and above with CHD and evaluates predictors of depression in this population. It has been reported that approximately 17-44% of persons with CHD have a major depression diagnosis and that nearly 27% of individuals undergoing coronary artery bypass graft operation suffer depression following the procedure. Methods: Data from the 2022 National Health Interview Survey was used. The sample was made up of adults 40 years and above with CHD. A chi-square analysis was used to identify differences between those who were depressed and those who were not. Logistic and ordinal regression analyses were used to identify predictors of depression and severe depression, respectively. RESULTS The proportion of adults 40 years and above with CHD who reported having depression was 863/1700 (50.5%). Among those who were ≥65, the proportion of those who reported depression and those who did not were similar (49.3% vs. 50.7%). Most women reported having depression (57.4% vs. 42.6%), while fewer men reported having depression (46.3% vs. 53.7%). The positive predictors of depression include being insured (odds ratio (OR) 1.26 (1.05-1.53), p = 0.016), college degree (OR 1.09 (1.01-1.18), p = 0.040), diabetes mellitus (OR 1.28 (1.15-1.42), p < 0.001), and hypertension (OR 1.34 (1.24-1.44), p < 0.001). The negative predictors of being depressed were age ≥65 (OR 0.74 (0.69-0.80), p < 0.001), male sex (OR 0.54 (0.50-0.58), p < 0.001), and ratio of family income (RFI) ≥1 (OR 0.68 (0.61-0.77), p < 0.001). The positive predictors of severe depression include diabetes mellitus (OR 1.38 (1.06-1.81), p = 0.019) and current cigarette use (OR 2.10 (1.44-3.07), p < 0.001). CONCLUSION A significant proportion of adults 40 years and above with CHD have depression, and socioeconomic and cardiovascular risk factors are associated with a high likelihood of depression. Cardiovascular risk factors alone predict the likelihood of severe depression. Interventions to address depression in CHD should target specifically these high-risk individuals.

BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2022; 22:397. [PMID: 36068504 PMCID: PMC9446873 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-022-02844-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2022] [Accepted: 08/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Background A key outcome in coronary heart disease (CHD) is Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), and family functioning is important in the management of CHD. But few studies have examined both together, and little is known about them among inpatients with CHD in less developed areas of China. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the HRQoL and family functioning status of inpatients with CHD in Lanzhou from Northwest China, and identify the factors that affect their HRQoL. Methods A cross‑sectional study was conducted in 224 CHD inpatients at one major hospital. Sociodemographic data and disease information of CHD inpatients were collected by face-to-face using a structured questionnaire and data were also obtained from patient medical records. HRQoL was measured using the Sickness Impact Profile (SIP). Family functioning was measured using the family APGAR index. Multiple binary logistic regression analysis (MBLRA) was used to explore potential risk factors associated with HRQoL, and Pearson’s correlations were used to assess the relationship between family functioning and HRQoL. Results The overall, physical and psychosocial SIP scores were 25.03 ± 8.52, 18.61 ± 9.90 and 28.08 ± 9.64, respectively. The total family APGAR score was 6.11 ± 2.45. MBLRA found older age, poorer cardiac function and more severe disease were associated with poorer HRQoL, while better family functioning, higher monthly income, and urban living were associated with better HRQoL. Family functioning was weakly to moderately correlated with total and psychosocial HRQoL. Conclusions Older and less affluent inpatients with lower educational level, less family support and more severe CHD have poorest quality of life, and health care providers should consider interventions to support them.

Abstract
Background Depression, as an independent risk factor, can lead to a substantially increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). The overall body of evidence involving depression and CHD is not consistent. Therefore, we performed an update meta-analysis to evaluate the association between depression and the risk of patients with CHD. Methods Studies were identified through a comprehensive literature search of the PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library database from its inception to 28 September 2021 for titles/abstracts with restricted to English language articles. The literature was screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Along with data extraction, we evaluated the quality of eligible studies using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). The primary outcome was fatal or non-fatal CHD. We calculated relative risk (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using a random-effects models. The protocol was registered in the PROSPERO registration (registration number CRD42021271259). Results From 9,151 records, we included 26 prospective cohort studies published from 1998 to 2018, consisting of 402,597 patients. Either in depression-exposured group or non-depression-exposured group, the mean age of all participants ranged from 18 to 99 years. Moreover, the NOS scores of these studies are eventually indicated that the quality of these eligible studies was reliable. In general, the pooled results showed that patients with depression had a higher risk of CHD compared to patients without depression (RR = 1.21, 95% CI: 1.14–1.29). Additionally, the funnel plot appeared to be asymmetry, indicating there existing publication bias for the pooled results between depression and CHD. A sensitivity analysis was used to assess the stability of the relationship between depression and CHD that indicating the results robust (RR = 1.15, 95% CI: 1.09–1.21). Conclusion Depression may increase risk of CHD. Future studies on the share pathogenic mechanisms of both depression and CHD may develop novel therapies.

The Mechanism of Inflammatory Factors and Soluble Vascular Cell Adhesion Molecule-1 Regulated by Nuclear Transcription Factor NF-κB in Unstable Angina Pectoris. J Immunol Res 2022; 2022:6137219. [PMID: 35942210 PMCID: PMC9356854 DOI: 10.1155/2022/6137219] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2022] [Revised: 06/08/2022] [Accepted: 07/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
This work is aimed at exploring the mechanism of inflammatory factors and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1) regulated by nuclear transcription factor-κB (NF-κB) in unstable angina pectoris (UAP). 60 patients with unstable angina pectoris (UAP), 60 patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP), and some healthy people (controls) were selected and included. Peripheral venous blood (PVB) of all subjects was collected to detect blood routine. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was adopted for detecting Visfatin, sVCAM-1, soluble intervascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), and inflammatory factors; flow cytometry (FCM) was to detect the CD63 and CD62P; real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (rt-qPCR) was employed to detect the NF-κB1, NF-κB2, and REL mRNA. The hs-CRP results of UAP group, SAP group, and control group were 11.12 ± 1.5 mg/L, 10.23 ± 1.3 mg/L, and 4.51 ± 1.1 mg/L, respectively. The CD62P results of UAP group, SAP group, and control group were 16.07 ± 2.5%, 11.09 ± 1.8%, and 22.15 ± 0.4%, respectively. The high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), inflammatory factors (IL-6, IL-17, IL-23, IL-1β, and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α)), CD63, CD62P, NF-κB1, NF-κB2, and REL mRNA were obviously higher in the SAP group compared than the indicator values in the control group (P < 0.05). The relative REL expression results of UAP group, SAP group, and control group were 3.77 ± 1.5, 2.2 ± 0.6, and 1 ± 0.4, respectively. The inflammatory factors, Visfatin, sVCAM-1, sICAM-1, CD63, CD62P, NF-κB1, NF-κB2, and REL mRNA in the UAP group showed higher levels in contrast to the other two groups (P < 0.05). In summary, UAP patients had marked activation of the IL-23/IL-17 inflammatory axis, high expressions of sVCAM-1 and sICAM-1, and activation of the NF-κB pathway. Increase of inflammatory factors and sVCAM-1 regulated by NF-κB was closely correlated with UAP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) are associated with depression. However, it is unclear whether coexisting CMDs may increase the risk of depression. We examined associations between cardiometabolic multimorbidity and depressive symptoms among middle-aged and older Chinese. METHODS Participants aged ≥45 years were enrolled from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study 2011-2018 (N = 18,002). Cardiometabolic multimorbidity was defined as the coexistence of ≥2 CMDs, including stroke, heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Depressive symptoms were assessed by the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale. We used generalized estimating equation models to examine associations between cardiometabolic multimorbidity and depressive symptoms, including the dose effect of disease count and prevalent disease combinations, as well as individual and additive effects of specific CMDs. RESULTS The prevalence of cardiometabolic multimorbidity was 24.5%. A higher number of CMDs had an additive dose effect on depressive symptoms that persisted consistently in specific CMDs. Stroke only, heart disease only, and diabetes only were each associated with a higher risk of depressive symptoms compared with no CMDs. CMD combinations involving stroke, heart disease, or diabetes were each associated with an increased risk of depressive symptoms compared with the absence of stroke, heart disease, or diabetes. LIMITATION Self-reported chronic conditions. CONCLUSION Stroke, heart disease, and diabetes showed individual and additive effects on CMD combinations, whereas hypertension and dyslipidemia only showed associations with depressive symptoms in combinations with other CMDs. These results suggest person-centered healthcare of mental health prevention and treatment for middle-aged and older adults with individual or multiple CMDs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The coexistence of depression and chronic diseases can lead to greater disability and increased mortality. The objective of this study was to examine the association between Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) and depression in patients with chronic diseases and comorbidity. METHODS Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the relationship between DII and depression. Dose response relationship was analyzed using a generalized additive model with the smoothing plot. RESULTS A total of 7870 chronic diseases patients were enrolled. In multivariate model, the highest quintile of DII was associated with increased risk of depression in patients with diabetes (OR:1.73, 95CI%: 1.17, 2.57), hypertension (OR:1.93, 95CI%: 1.47, 2.52), coronary heart disease (OR:2.65, 95CI%: 1.18, 5.94). The dose response relationship curve suggested the DII tended to be linearly associated with depression in patients with chronic diseases and comorbidity, and the ORs for risk of depression increased with the increase of DII. Furthermore, in patients had at least one chronic comorbidity, the subgroup analysis results showed that those who age<60 years or male participants had higher risk of depression, with ORs (95% CIs) of 2.60 (1.81, 3.74) and 2.51 (1.65, 3.81), respectively. CONCLUSION The current study demonstrates that a higher DII is associated with an increased risk of depression in participants with chronic diseases and comorbidity, especially among those less than 60 years and men. Considering diet as a modifiable factor, limiting pro-inflammatory diet or encouraging anti-inflammatory diet may be an effective way to prevent depression and reduce depressive symptoms.

Abstract
Background: The benefits of social support are often overlooked in
common management components of cardiovascular diseases. The Multidimensional
Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) is self-administered and scores
perceived social support (PSS). We sought to identify PSS among cardiovascular
patients and the effects it may have on quality of life (QoL) and treatment
compliance. Methods: A total of 96 patients were evaluated using
the MSPSS in 3 categories: significant other (SO), family, and friends using a
7-point Likert scale. A supplemental lifestyle survey assessed various
demographics, subjective QoL, and compliance with treatment plans.
Results: Patients with high QoL reported a higher PSS Likert
score in the family support category. Patients who were compliant with
appointments and had high substance use avoidance (tobacco, alcohol, illicit
drugs) had a higher PSS Likert score in the friend support and higher PSS Likert
score in support from SO and family categories, respectively. No difference in
PSS was found in compliance with medications, diet, and exercise.
Conclusion: Various social support categories are directly
associated with higher QoL, adherence to appointments, and substance abuse
avoidance.

Abstract
Background: We combined yoga with standard stroke rehabilitation and compared it to the rehabilitation alone for depression and balance in patients. Methods: Forty patients aged from 30 to 80 who had suffered a stroke 90 or more days previously were divided evenly with age stratification and patients’ will (hence not randomized). In the intervention group 16 completed 8-week stroke rehabilitation combined with 1 h of yoga twice weekly. Another 19 patients completed the standard rehabilitation as the control group. Results: The yoga group showed significant improvement in depression (Taiwanese Depression Questionnaire, p = 0.002) and balance (Berg Balance Scale, p < 0.001). However, the control group showed improvement only in balance (p = 0.001) but not in depression (p = 0.181). Further analysis showed both sexes benefitted in depression, but men had a greater improvement in balance than women. Depression in left-brain lesion patients improved more significantly than in those with right-brain lesion, whereas balance improved equally despite lesion site. For patients under or above the age of 60, depression and balance both significantly improved after rehabilitation. Older age is significantly related to poor balance but not depression. Conclusions: Combining yoga with rehabilitation has the potential to improve depression and balance. Factors related to sex, brain lesion site and age may influence the differences.

Abstract
PURPOSE Medication non-adherence is a major public health issue. Recent evidence suggests that depression, inadequate social support, and lower levels of self-efficacy are associated with poor medication adherence. However, the mechanism underlying the association among depression, social support, self-efficacy and medication adherence is unclear. This study aims to examine the mediating role of social support and self-efficacy between depression and medication adherence in older patients with coronary heart disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS Data were collected from 238 hospitalized older patients with coronary heart disease. Depression, social support, self-efficacy, and medication adherence were assessed using structured questionnaires. A serial multiple mediation model was tested using the PROCESS macro for SPSS. RESULTS A total of 238 older patients with CHD with a mean age of 70.5 years were involved in this cross-sectional study. Depression was negatively correlated with medication adherence in older patients with coronary heart disease. Social support and self-efficacy were positively associated with medication adherence, and fully mediated the relationship between depression and medication adherence. Three mediation paths were included in the model: (a) social support, (b) chain combination of social support and self-efficacy, and (c) self-efficacy. CONCLUSION Social support and self-efficacy explain the association of depression and medication adherence in older CHD patients and may be the keys target for enhanced intervention to improve medication adherence in older CHD patients with depression.

Abstract
(1) Background: Stroke is an important topic in the healthcare industry. The objective of the present study was to investigate patients' sociodemographic characteristics, health status, continuity of care, self-management, and other predictors that affect their self-management. (2) Methods: This cross-sectional correlational study was carried out from March to September 2020, and included a total of 150 patients aged 20 and above who were diagnosed within the past 6 months. The research participants were selected from the Division of Neurology, Department of Internal Medicine/Department of Surgery, at a medical center in Central Taiwan. (3) Results: The mean self-management score of patients with stroke was 110.50 points (30-150 points). As shown in the stepwise regression analysis, the overall regression model explained approximately 44.5% of the variance in self-management. Educational level (10.8%), frequency of exercise per week (2.1%), time that patients were affected by stroke (2.4%), and continuity of care (29.2%) were the main predictors affecting the self-management of stroke patients. (4) Conclusions: To improve stroke patients' self-management, medical teams should provide appropriate continuity of care to those with lower educational levels, those without exercise habits, and those who experienced a stroke within the past six months.

JBI Evid Synth 2021; 18:1932-1969.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this review was to scope the literature for publications on the practice of screening for depression and anxiety in acute coronary syndrome patients in acute care by identifying instruments for the screening of anxiety and/or depression; determining if screening for anxiety and/or depression has been integrated into cardiac models of care and clinical pathways; and identifying any evidence practice gap in the screening and management of anxiety and/or depression in this population. INTRODUCTION Depression in acute coronary syndrome is bidirectional. Depression is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and comorbid depression is associated with a twofold greater risk of mortality in patients with cardiovascular disease. The presence of acute coronary syndrome increases the risk of depressive disorders or anxiety during the first one to two years following an acute event, and both depression and anxiety are associated with a higher risk of further acute coronary health concerns. Clinical practice guidelines have previously recommended routine screening for depression following a cardiac event, although many current guidelines do not include recommendations for screening in an acute setting. To date there have been no previous scoping reviews investigating depression and anxiety screening in patients with acute coronary syndrome in the acute care setting. INCLUSION CRITERIA Adults (18 years and over) with acute coronary syndrome who are screened for anxiety and/or depression (not anxiety alone) in an acute care setting. METHODS A systematic search of the literature was conducted by a research librarian. Research studies of any design published in English from January 1, 2012, to May 31, 2018, were included. Data were extracted from the included studies to address the three objectives. Purposefully designed tables were used to collate information and present findings. Data are also presented as figures and by narrative synthesis. RESULTS Fifty-one articles met the inclusion criteria. Primary research studies were from 21 countries and included 21,790 participants; clinical practice guidelines were from two countries. The most common instruments used for the screening of depression and anxiety were: i) the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (n = 18); ii) the Beck Depression Inventory (n = 16); and iii) the nine-item Patient Health Questionnaire (n = 7). Eleven studies included screening for anxiety in 2181 participants (30% female) using the full version of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory was used to screen 444 participants in three of the studies. Four studies applied an intervention for those found to have depression, including two randomized controlled trials with interventions targeting depression. Of the seven acute coronary syndrome international guidelines published since 2012, three (43%) did not contain any recommendations for screening for depression and anxiety, although four (57%) had recommendations for treatment of comorbidities. CONCLUSIONS This review has identified a lack of consistency in how depression and anxiety screening tools are integrated into cardiac models of care and clinical pathways. Guidelines for acute coronary syndrome are not consistent in their recommendations for screening for depression and/or anxiety, or in identifying the best screening tools.

An Integrative Pharmacology-Based Strategy to Uncover the Mechanism of Xiong-Pi-Fang in Treating Coronary Heart Disease with Depression. Front Pharmacol 2021; 12:590602. [PMID: 33867976 PMCID: PMC8048422 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2021.590602] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2020] [Accepted: 02/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives: This study aimed to explore the mechanism of Xiong-Pi-Fang (XPF) in the treatment of coronary heart disease (CHD) with depression by an integrative strategy combining serum pharmacochemistry, network pharmacology analysis, and experimental validation. Methods: An ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS) method was constructed to identify compounds in rat serum after oral administration of XPF, and a component-target network was established using Cytoscape, between the targets of XPF ingredients and CHD with depression. Furthermore, Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analyses were performed to deduce the mechanism of XPF in treating CHD with depression. Finally, in a chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS)-and isoproterenol (ISO)-induced rat model, TUNEL was used to detect the apoptosis index of the myocardium and hippocampus, ELISA and western blot were used to detect the predicted hub targets, namely AngII, 5-HT, cAMP, PKA, CREB, BDNF, Bcl-2, Bax, Cyt-c, and caspase-3. Results: We identified 51 compounds in rat serum after oral administration of XPF, which mainly included phenolic acids, saponins, and flavonoids. Network pharmacology analysis revealed that XPF may regulate targets, such as ACE2, HTR1A, HTR2A, AKT1, PKIA, CREB1, BDNF, BCL2, BAX, CASP3, cAMP signaling pathway, and cell apoptosis process in the treatment of CHD with depression. ELISA analysis showed that XPF decreased Ang-II content in the circulation and central nervous system, inhibited 5-HT levels in peripheral circulation, and increased 5-HT content in the central nervous system and cAMP content in the myocardia and hippocampus. Meanwhile, western blot analysis indicated that XPF could upregulate the expression levels of PKA, CREB, and BDNF both in the myocardia and hippocampus. TUNEL staining indicated that the apoptosis index of myocardial and hippocampal cells increased in CUMS-and ISO-induced CHD in rats under depression, and XPF could increase the expression of Bcl-2, inhibit the expression of Bax, Cyt-c, and caspase-3, and rectify the injury of the hippocampus and myocardium, which exerted antidepressant and antimyocardial ischemia effects. Conclusion: Our study proposed an integrated strategy, combining serum pharmacochemistry and network pharmacology to investigate the mechanisms of XPF in treating CHD with depression. The mechanism of XPF in treating CHD with depression may be related to the activation of the cAMP signaling pathway and the inhibition of the apoptosis.

Study on the Correlation between Continuity of Care and Quality of Life for Patients with Coronary Heart Disease. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2020; 17:ijerph17239125. [PMID: 33297393 PMCID: PMC7730628 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph17239125] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2020] [Revised: 12/03/2020] [Accepted: 12/05/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
Background: As coronary heart disease (CHD) is a highly complex disease, complex continuity of care (CoC) service should be provided for the patients, and the quality of life (QoL) needs to be regarded as an important measuring indicator for the health-care outcome. Purpose: To understand the general situation of CHD QoL and important predictors. Method: A cross-sectional study design was adopted from August 2019 to July 2020 by structured questionnaires. A total of 163 patients were enrolled, and data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 25.0. Result: The average score of the QoL questionnaire is 56.56/80, and the CoC is 4.32. The overall regression model can explain 58.7% of the variance regarding QoL. Patients’ instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs) (26.1%), age (18.1%), living situation (7%), information transfer (4.8%), main source of income (1.8%), and risk of disability are significantly different from their overall QoL in depression (0.9%). Conclusions: In order to improve the QoL of patients, it is suggested that medical teams should assess the needs of patients immediately upon hospitalization, provide patients with individual CoC, encourage them to participate in community health promotion activities, and strengthen the function of IADL to improve the QoL of patients.

The Efficacy and Safety of Compound Danshen Dripping Pill Combined with Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Coronary Heart Disease. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2020; 2020:5067137. [PMID: 33281912 PMCID: PMC7685822 DOI: 10.1155/2020/5067137] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2020] [Revised: 10/09/2020] [Accepted: 10/21/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
Objective Compound Danshen dripping pill (CDDP) is a well-known Chinese patent medicine, which is commonly used for the treatment of coronary heart disease (CHD) in China. This study is aimed at systematically assessing the clinical efficacy of CDDP for CHD patients. Methods Eight databases were retrieved for eligible research studies from the founding date to April 20, 2020. Risk ratio (RR) was used to assess major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and adverse reactions, and mean difference (MD) was adopted to evaluate the hemorheology and blood lipid indexes, vascular endothelial function, cardiac function, and inflammation. Result Twenty randomized controlled trials involving 2574 participants with CHD were included. The results indicated that, compared with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) alone, the combination of CDDP with PCI treatment remarkably reduced MACE (RR = 0.53, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.44, 0.65), P < 0.00001). Moreover, hemorheology and blood lipid parameters and inflammatory mediators of CHD patients were also dramatically mitigated after the combined therapy (P < 0.01). In addition, vascular endothelial function and cardiac function were prominently improved by this combination (P < 0.001). However, there was no significant difference in adverse reactions between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion Evidence from the meta-analysis demonstrated that CDDP combined with PCI treatment prominently reduced the incidence of MACE, improved cardiovascular functions, and inhibited inflammation in CHD patients. Therefore, CDDP combined with PCI treatment could be an effective and safe therapeutic method for CHD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Cardiac Depression Scale (CDS) is an instrument to screen for depression, specifically in patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Arabic version of the CDS in the Jordanian population. METHOD A cross-sectional design was used for 304 participants diagnosed with CVD. An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was performed to explore the underlying structure of the new Arabic version of the CDS tool. RESULTS Cronbach's alpha for the total scale was 0.87. An EFA suggested a two-factor solution. The first factor has 18 items, measuring "My tolerance" of CVD, and the second factor has seven items, measuring "My activities" in the context of CVD. Based on the EFA simple structure, one item was removed due to its low factor loading (< 0.3). A confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) supported a two-factor model with the root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA = 0.06), comparative fit index (CFI = 0.856), and Tucker-Lewis index (TLI = 0.83) indicating acceptable fit. The Cronbach's alpha values for the first and second factors were 0.86 and 0.84, respectively. CONCLUSION The Arabic version of the CDS is a reliable and valid instrument to screen for depression among Jordanian patients with CVD.

Abstract
To clarify the effectiveness of music intervention for improving the well-being of patients undergoing coronary procedures for coronary heart disease, we conducted full-text searches of various databases (MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, ProQuest, and Airiti Library; 1966-2019) to identify randomized controlled trials and quasi-experimental studies of music intervention in recipients of angiography or percutaneous coronary intervention. Outcome measures included anxiety, discomfort, pain, heart rate, and blood pressure. The Cochrane methodology, Jadad Quality Score, and ROBINS-I were employed to evaluate evidence from 10 studies. Music intervention reduced anxiety (effect size: Z = 2.15, p = .03; six studies) and discomfort of lying (Z = 2.40, p = .02; two studies), but did not affect pain (Z = 0.94; two studies), heart rate (Z = 0.94; five studies), or blood pressure (systolic, Z = 1.27; diastolic, Z = 1.32; four studies) (all p > .05). The heterogeneity among studies was high. Large-scale, transcultural, high-quality trials are warranted to confirm the benefit of music intervention in patients undergoing coronary procedures.

Abstract
Background Depression is one of the most important consequences of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), and to control and treat it, it is necessary to identify its direct and indirect triggers and underlying factors. Therefore, the current study aims to evaluate and investigate the mediator role of aggression in the relationship between marital stress and depression. Methods The sample of current cross-sectional study includes 212 patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) in Iran evaluated from Jan to Jun 2017. The required data were gathered using Beck's Depression Inventory (BDI) questionnaire, Buss and Perry's Aggression Questionnaire (BPAQ), and Hudson's Marital Satisfaction Index (HMSI). The data were analysed using Pearson's correlation coefficient and structural equation modeling (SEM) using SPSS20 and AMOS software. Results The mean age of participants (68.4% male) was 58.5 ± 8.9. The results show that there is a significant positive relationship between all the variables (P < 0.05). The results of the model show that marital stress cannot directly predict depression (P = 0.586). However, through aggression, marital stress can significantly predict 18% of the variance of depression (P < 0.001). Conclusions Not directly, but indirectly through aggression, marital stress can significantly predict increased depression among patients with CAD. The physiological and psychological pathways of the findings can be discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mental health problems have an adverse effect on the course of cardiac disease. The integration of their diagnosis and treatment into cardiology care is generally poor. It is particularly challenging in cultural environments where mental health problems are stigmatized. The objective of the current study was to investigate the proportion of cardiac patients with depression and anxiety as well as factors associated with the presence of these symptoms in a Palestinian population. METHODS This cross-sectional hospital-based study was conducted on patients consecutively admitted with a new or existing cardiac diagnosis to one of the four main hospitals in Nablus, Palestine over an eight-month period. Data was obtained from hospital medical charts and an in-person interview, using a structured questionnaire with a sequence of validated instruments. All subjects were screened for depression and anxiety using the Cardiac Depression Scale (CDS) and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-42). Multivariate ordered logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors among four categories (socio-demographic, clinical, psychosocial, lifestyle) independently associated with depression and anxiety. RESULTS In total, 1053 patients with a confirmed cardiac diagnosis were included in the study with a participation rate of 96%. Based on the CDS and DASS-42, 54% met the criteria for severe depression (CDS > 100) and 19.2% for severe-to-very severe anxiety (DASS-anxiety > 15), respectively. Symptoms of depression and anxiety were more prevalent among females and less educated patients. Factors independently associated with both depressive and anxiety symptoms were post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms, low level of self-esteem, high somatic symptoms, low physical and mental health component scores, active smoking, physical inactivity, and longer disease duration. Patients with depressive and anxiety symptoms also reported poor social support and lower resilience. CONCLUSION There was a high level of depression and anxiety in this sample of cardiac patients. The results point to characteristics of patients in particular need for mental health screening and suggest possible targets for intervention such as strengthening of social support and of physical activity. The integration of mental health services into cardiac rehabilitation in Palestine and comparable cultural settings is warranted from the time of first diagnosis and onward.

Abstract
This study investigated the relationships between Type D personality, depression, and social support among ethnic Chinese coronary artery disease (CAD) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions. Type D personality is associated with CAD, and may increase patients' depression and mortality rate. However, very few studies have explored the relationships between depression and social support among ethnic Chinese Type D CAD patients. A longitudinal, repeated-measures design was used; 105 Taiwanese CAD patients undergoing a percutaneous coronary intervention were recruited between January and December 2015. A demographic questionnaire, Type D Scale, ENRICHD Social Support Inventory, and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 were completed by 102 participants (mean age = 64.42, SD = 13.67 years) at hospitalization, and at the second week and third month after discharge. Data were analyzed using t tests and a generalized estimating equation. Results indicated that 46.7% of participants who had Type D personality had lower social support and higher depression than did the remaining (non-Type D) participants. At two weeks after discharge, the improvement in social support was higher among Type D patients than non-Type D participants; the same was true for depression at two weeks and three months after discharge each. Type D Taiwanese CAD patients showed lower perceived social support and higher depression during hospitalization than did non-Type D participants. Furthermore, the more social support patients received at home, the lower was their depression. Health-care providers should provide continuous mental health care, conduct early screening of mental health issues, and ensure that patients receive sufficient social support to reduce depression.
