The relationship between dietary lipophilic index and load with depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Dietary fatty acids can affect brain health by modifying neuronal membrane fluidity. Dietary lipophilic index (LI) and load (LL) may be related to cell membrane fluidity. This study aimed to determine the relationship between dietary LI and LL with symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress.

Methods

In this cross-sectional study, taken from the YaHS (Yazd Health Study) population-based cohort, the data of 2,982 individuals was extracted. Several questionnaires- a 178-item Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ), Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale 21 (DASS 21), and International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ)- were used to obtain information on dietary intake, mental status, and physical activity, respectively. LI and LL were calculated using dietary intake and the melting point of each fatty acid.

Results

The analysis was performed on 2982 individuals. The odds ratio of depression in the second tertile of dietary LI compared to the first tertile was 0.815 (95% CI 0.66-1.00, P = 0.051, P_trend = 0.017) and after adjusting confounders was 0.793 (95% CI 0.63-0.99, P = 0.043, P_trend = 0.011). Also, LL was related inversely with anxiety (0.771, 95% CI 0.63-0.93, P = 0.003) that after multiple regression, OR of anxiety was 0.762 (95% CI 0.53-1.07, P = 0.045). The odds of stress in the third tertile of LL was 1.064 but not statistically significant (95% CI 0.88-1.28, P = 0.729).

Conclusion

This study showed an inverse association between dietary LI and depression symptoms. Anxiety and stress did not show a significant relationship with LI or LL.

Project description:BackgroundWe investigated the efficacy of electroconvulsive therapy in patients with major depressive disorder and concomitant anxiety symptoms and explored the relationships between depression symptoms and anxiety symptoms during acute electroconvulsive therapy.MethodsMajor depressive disorder inpatients (N = 130) requiring electroconvulsive therapy were recruited for a maximum of 12 treatments each. Depression symptoms, using the core factor subscale derived from the 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, and anxiety symptoms, using the anxiety/somatization subscale from the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale-17, were assessed before electroconvulsive therapy, after every 3 electroconvulsive therapy treatments, and after the final electroconvulsive therapy. Both core factor subscale and anxiety/somatization subscale scores were converted to T-score units to compare the degrees of changes between depression symptoms and anxiety symptoms after electroconvulsive therapy. The relationships between core factor subscale and anxiety/somatization subscale were analyzed using the cross-lagged longitudinal model during acute electroconvulsive therapy.ResultsA total 116 patients who completed at least the first 3 electroconvulsive therapy treatments were included in the analysis. Reduction of core factor scale T-scores was significantly greater than that of anxiety/somatization subscale T-scores. The model satisfied all indices of goodness-of-fit (chi-square = 30.204, df = 24, P = 0.178, Tucker-Lewis Index = 0.976, Comparative Fit Index = 0.989, Root Mean Square Error of Approximation = 0.047). Core factor subscale changes did not definitely predict subsequent anxiety/somatization subscale changes.ConclusionsElectroconvulsive therapy is effective in the acute treatment of major depressive disorder patients associated with anxiety symptoms. Anxiety symptoms improved less than depression symptoms during acute electroconvulsive therapy. However, earlier reduction in depression symptoms does not definitely drive subsequent relief in anxiety symptoms.

Project description:PurposeThis cross-sectional study aims to understand the relationship between responses on the Anxiety/Depression (A/D) dimension of the EQ-5D-5L and symptoms of anxiety and depression on the GAD-7 and PHQ-9 instruments. In doing so, we investigate the comparative performance of the dimension between diagnostic groups (i.e. anxiety (GAD-7); depression (PHQ-9); anxiety & depression versus none). We additionally investigate the discriminatory performance between sub-populations based on gender, age, education and self-reported chronic conditions.Methods19,902 general population participants completed a health survey in May/June 2020, from five European countries and the United States. Performance of A/D was calculated using the Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic curve (AUROC), and was compared to having anxiety (GAD-7 ≥ 8), depression (PHQ-9 ≥ 10) and both versus none for the total population and sub-populations. Several additional sensitivity analyses were conducted, including calculations of the optimal A/D cut-off.ResultsThe performance in the total sample was good (AUROC > 0.8) and did not differ significantly between diagnostic groups. The performance differed significantly between the age groups, with worse performance in the younger groups, and differed between those with a singular chronic condition, with worse performance in those indicating having an anxiety or depression disorder. The performance did not differ significantly by gender, education, nor total chronic conditions.ConclusionThe A/D dimension captures symptoms of anxiety, depression or both equally well. Performance is worse in the younger population. Interpretation in those with a self-reported anxiety or depression disorder should be further investigated. This is the first-of-its-kind large population sample performance analysis, where we present evidence that the performance of the A/D dimension differs between ages, and thus intra-age comparative results may be flawed.
