Association between threat-related adverse childhood experiences and chronic lung diseases in a middle and older aged population: A cross-sectional and longitudinal study in China. J Psychosom Res 2024; 182:111692. [PMID: 38735102 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpsychores.2024.111692] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2024] [Revised: 05/02/2024] [Accepted: 05/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/14/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES We investigated the association between threat-related adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and the risk of chronic lung diseases (CLDs). METHODS The data used for this study were extracted from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), a nationally representative survey of respondents recruited from 450 villages/urban communities in 28 provinces. Threat-related ACEs were constructed using five adverse factors: household substance abuse, physical abuse, domestic violence, unsafe neighbourhood, and bullying). Participants were divided into three groups according to their number of threat-related ACEs at baseline and at follow-up. The association between threat-related ACEs and CLD prevalence in the cross-sectional study was calculated using logistic regression models. The association between threat-related ACEs and CLD onset was evaluated using Cox proportional regression models in the cohort study. Potential confounders were considered in both the cross-sectional and cohort studies. RESULTS The CLD prevalence in the total population, no exposure group, exposure to one threat-related ACE, and exposure to at least two threat-related ACEs were 10.07% (1320/13104), 9.20% (665/7232), 10.89% (421/3865), and 11.66% (234/2007), respectively. Exposure to one threat-related ACE (OR: 1.23, 95% CI: 1.07-1.41) and exposure to at least two threat-related ACEs (OR: 1.31, 95% CI: 1.11-1.55) were significantly associated with higher CLD prevalence rates. The cohort study included 11,645 participants. During the 7-year follow-up, 738 CLD incidents were identified. Similarly, exposure to one threat-related ACE (HR: 1.20, 95% CI: 1.01-1.43) and at least two threat-related ACEs (HR: 1.64, 95% CI: 1.35-2.00) were significantly associated with a higher CLD incidence risk. CONCLUSIONS Exposure to threat-related ACEs was significantly associated with a higher CLD prevalence risk and onset. It is crucial to identify individuals who have encountered childhood threats and prioritise the monitoring of their pulmonary function.

Hu W, Liu BP, Jia CX. Association and biological pathways between lung function and incident depression: a prospective cohort study of 280,032 participants. BMC Med 2024; 22:160. [PMID: 38616272 PMCID: PMC11017623 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-024-03382-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2023] [Accepted: 04/08/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung health is increasingly recognized as an essential factor in mental health. However, prospective evidence on lung function with incident depression remains to be determined. The study aimed to examine the prospective association between impaired lung function and incident depression and the underlying biological mechanisms. METHODS This prospective cohort study comprised 280,032 non-depressed individuals with valid lung function measurements from the UK Biobank. Lung function was assessed through the forced vital capacity (FVC) or forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1). Cox proportional hazard models were applied to estimate the associations between lung function and incident depression. Mediation analyses were fitted to investigate the potential mediating role of biomarkers and metabolites in the association. RESULTS A total of 9514 participants (3.4%) developed depression during a median follow-up of 13.91 years. Individuals in the highest quartile had a lower risk of depression (FVC % predicted: HR = 0.880, 95% CI = 0.830-0.933; FEV1% predicted: HR = 0.854, 95% CI = 0.805-0.905) compared with those in the lowest quartile of the lung function indices. Additionally, the restricted cubic splines suggested lung function indices had reversed J-shaped associations with incident depression (nonlinear P < 0.05 for FVC % predicted and FEV1% predicted). Impaired lung function yielded similar risk estimates (HR = 1.124, 95% CI = 1.074-1.176). Biomarkers involving systemic inflammation, erythrocytes, and liver and renal function may be potential mediators in the lung function-depression association. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that the higher risk of developing depression was associated with impaired lung function. Also, the association might be partially mediated by biomarkers including systemic inflammation, erythrocytes, and liver and renal function, though these mediation findings should be interpreted with caution due to potential temporal ambiguity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic lung diseases (CLDs) and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the main chronic diseases responsible for a considerable burden of disease. This study aimed to estimate the interrelation of CLDs and CVDs using two Chinese national longitudinal cohort studies. METHODS The China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) and Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS) were used in this study with 15,052 and 9,765 participants, respectively. The Cox proportional risk model was used to estimate the interrelation between CLDs and CVDs. Mediating effects were performed to detect possible influencing pathways between CLDs and CVDs. RESULTS The association of CLDs with CVDs was identified in 1,647 participants (10.9%) with newly diagnosed CVDs in CHARLS and 332 participants (11.6%) in CLHLS. The Cox proportional risk model showed that CLDs were a significant predictor of CVDs (HR 1.49, 95% CI 1.27-1.76) after adjusting for covariates, and the hazard ratios of stroke and CVDs excluding stroke were (HR 1.02, 95% CI 0.79-1.31) and (HR 1.76, 95% CI 1.46-2.13), respectively. These association were mediated by body mass index (BMI) and Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D-10) scores. No significant association was found in CHARLS and CLHLS regarding CVDs with CLDs. In CHARLS, CVDs was a significant predictor of CLDs (HR 1.40, 95% CI 1.09-1.79). CONCLUSIONS Chronic lung disease was associated with increased incidence of CVDs in middle-aged and older people in the community population and vice versa. Body mass index and depressive symptoms might be mediated by the effect of CLD on CVD.

Abstract
The causal association between chronic diseases and depression remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the effects of types and number of chronic diseases on the risk of depression using data from the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE). A self-admitted questionnaire was used to obtain data on 14 predefined chronic diseases and the European-Depression Scale (EURO-D) was used to assess depression. Among the 16,080 baseline depression-free participants aged 50+, 31.29% (5032) developed depression over 13 years. Multivariate Cox regression models showed that individuals with any chronic diseases were at higher risk of new onset depression compared to disease-free participants. The risk of new onset depression increased with an increasing number of diseases among both younger (50-64) and older (65+) adults. Individuals with heart attack, stroke, diabetes, chronic lung disease, and arthritis were at increased risk of depression across age groups. However, some age-specific associations were observed, with cancer increasing depression risk among younger- and peptic ulcer, Parkinson's disease and cataracts increasing depression risk among older adults. These findings highlight the importance of managing chronic diseases, especially among those with more than two diseases, to prevent the development of depression among middle-aged and older adults.

Clin Rheumatol 2023; 42:687-693. [PMID: 36198932 DOI: 10.1007/s10067-022-06396-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2022] [Revised: 09/22/2022] [Accepted: 09/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The coexistence of arthritis and pulmonary abnormalities has long been observed, but the causal inter-relationships among them are still uncertain especially in elderly adults. METHODS We extracted data from The China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). A total of 7534 participants without chronic lung diseases or/and asthma at the baseline and have complete follow-up information were included. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate the adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for developing chronic lung diseases or asthma. We also utilized generalized linear models to examine the association between arthritis and baseline peak expiratory flow (PEF). RESULTS During 50,615 and 51,975 person-years of follow-up, 629 and 188 participants incident chronic lung diseases and asthma, respectively. Compared to those without arthritis, participants with arthritis had a higher risk of chronic lung diseases (HR = 1.54, 95%CI = 1.31-1.81, P = 1.23 × 10-7) and asthma (HR = 1.70, 95%CI = 1.27-2.28, P = 3.78 × 10-4). Arthritis subjects demonstrated significantly lower PEF than those without arthritis [β = - 11.85 (95%CI = - 17.56, - 6.14), P = 4.81 × 10-5]. The results were stable after excluding these participates who incident chronic lung diseases or asthma in the first 1 year of follow-up. CONCLUSION Arthritis increased the risk of pulmonary diseases among middle-aged and elderly Chinese. Early detection and treatment of pulmonary abnormalities among arthritis patients could help decrease the mortality and reduce the global burden of arthritis. Key Points • The coexistence of arthritis and pulmonary abnormalities has long been observed, but whether arthritis status can trigger pulmonary disorders is still uncertain. • Arthritis status are associated with increased risk of pulmonary diseases (chronic lung diseases/asthma) among middle-aged and elderly Chinese. • Early detection and treatment of pulmonary abnormalities among arthritis patients could help decrease the mortality and reduce the global burden of arthritis.
