Relationship Between Depression and/or Anxiety and Hospital Readmission Among Women After Childbirth.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:To examine the relationship between depression and/or anxiety and any psychiatric diagnosis and readmission after childbirth. DESIGN:Cross-sectional analysis of administrative data from patient discharge records. SETTING:Urban academic medical center in the northeastern United States. PARTICIPANTS:Women admitted for childbirth (N = 17,905). METHODS:Differences among participants with and without depression and/or anxiety present on admission were compared using t tests and chi-square tests. Risk-adjusted logistic regression models were used to examine the effects of depression and/or anxiety and any psychiatric diagnosis on 7-, 30-, 60-, 90-, and 180-day readmissions after childbirth. RESULTS:Significant differences were noted between participants with (n = 1,169) and without (n = 16,736) depression and/or anxiety. Participants with these diagnoses had a higher mean age and a longer mean length of stay during hospitalization for childbirth. A greater proportion of these participants were White, were single, had cesarean births, and were discharged with home health services. The presence of depression and/or anxiety was not significantly associated with readmission. The effect of having any psychiatric diagnosis was significantly associated with a greater risk of readmission at 7 (odds ratio [OR] = 1.51, p = .100), 30 (OR = 1.45, p = .030), 60 (OR = 1.45, p = .026), 90 (OR = 1.56, p = .004), and 180 days (OR =1.74, p < .001) following discharge after childbirth. CONCLUSION:In this sample, women with a psychiatric diagnosis, but not depression and/or anxiety alone, were at increased risk for readmission after childbirth.

Project description:BackgroundThe childbirth experience is a personal life event that is influenced by physiologic and mental-psychological processes. Due to the prevalence of psychiatric problems after childbirth, it is important to recognize the factors affecting women's emotional reactions. This study was conducted to define the relationship of childbirth experience with postpartum anxiety and depression.MethodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted on 399 women from 1 to 4 months after their childbirth who were referred to health centers in Tabriz-Iran from January 2021 to September 2021. Socio-demographic and obstetric characteristics questionnaire, Childbirth Experience Questionnaire (CEQ 2.0), Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS), and Postpartum Specific Anxiety Scale (PSAS) were used to collect the data. The general linear modeling was used along with adjustment of socio-demographic characteristics to determine the relationship between the childbirth experience with depression and anxiety.ResultsThe mean (SD) of the overall score for childbirth experience, anxiety, and depression were 2.9 (0.2) (score range: 1 to 4), 91.6 (4.8) (score range: 0 to153), and 9.4 (0.7) (score range: 0 to 30), respectively. There was a significant inverse correlation between the overall score of childbirth experiences, the depression score (r= -0.36, p < 0.001), and the anxiety score (r= -0.12, p = 0.028) based on the Pearson correlation test. According to the general linear modeling and with adjustment of socio-demographic characteristics, with the increasing score of the childbirth experience, the depression score decreased (B= -0.2; 95%CI: -0.3 to -0.1). Moreover, the variable of control during pregnancy was a predictor for postpartum depression and anxiety, so in women with the control during pregnancy, the mean score of postpartum depression (B= -1.8; CI 95%: -3.0 to -0.5; P = 0.004) and anxiety (B=-6.0; CI 95%: -10.1 to -1.6; P = 0.007) was less.ConclusionBased on the study results, postpartum depression and anxiety are related to childbirth experiences, therefore considering the effects of mothers' mental health on other aspects of a woman and her family's life, the core role of health care providers and policymakers in creating positive childbirth experiences is determined.

Project description:Background: Burnout is a psychological syndrome characterized by emotional exhaustion, feelings of cynicism and reduced personal accomplishment. In the past years there has been disagreement on whether burnout and depression are the same or different constructs, as they appear to share some common features (e.g., loss of interest and impaired concentration). However, the results so far are inconclusive and researchers disagree with regard to the degree to which we should expect such overlap. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to examine the relationship between burnout and depression. Additionally, given that burnout is the result of chronic stress and that working environments can often trigger anxious reactions, we also investigated the relationship between burnout and anxiety. Method: We searched the online databases SCOPUS, Web of Science, MEDLINE (PubMed), and Google Scholar for studies examining the relationship between burnout and depression and burnout and anxiety, which were published between January 2007 and August 2018. Inclusion criteria were used for all studies and included both cross-sectional and longitudinal designs, published and unpublished research articles, full-text articles, articles written in the English language, studies that present the effects sizes of their findings and that used reliable research tools. Results: Our results showed a significant association between burnout and depression (r = 0.520, SE = 0.012, 95% CI = 0.492, 0.547) and burnout and anxiety (r = 0.460, SE = 0.014, 95% CI = 0.421, 0.497). However, moderation analysis for both burnout-depression and burnout-anxiety relationships revealed that the studies in which either the MBI test was used or were rated as having better quality showed lower effect sizes. Conclusions: Our research aims to clarify the relationship between burnout-depression and burnout-anxiety relationships. Our findings revealed no conclusive overlap between burnout and depression and burnout and anxiety, indicating that they are different and robust constructs. Future studies should focus on utilizing more longitudinal designs in order to assess the causal relationships between these variables.

Project description:IntroductionStudies on the association between adiponectin and leptin and anxiety and depression among postmenopausal women are limited. Therefore, the present study specifically evaluates the mutual relationships between adiponectin and leptin and anxiety and depression in postmenopausal women.Participants and designIn this cross-sectional study, a total of 190 women aged 40-65 years were enrolled. Depression symptoms were assessed using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), and anxiety symptoms were evaluated using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A). Fasting specimens were collected to measure sex hormone, glucose, insulin, and adipokine levels. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to evaluate the associations between depression and anxiety and adipocyte-derived hormones.SettingsThe study was performed in a hospital medical center.ResultsAmong 190 enrolled postmenopausal women, Spearman's rank correlation analysis revealed significant correlations between CES-D and HAM-A (r = 0.715, P < 0.0001), between CES-D and adiponectin (p = 0.009) and leptin (p = 0.015), and between HAM-A and adiponectin (p = 0.01) and leptin (p = 0.001). The subjects with CES-D ≥ 16 and with HAM-A ≥ 18 had higher adiponectin levels than those with CES-D < 16 and HAM-A < 18, respectively. After adjusting for age, body mass index, exercise, alanine amino transferase and parameters of lipid profiles, Log adiponectin levels were found to be significantly associated with both CES-D and HAM-A, and Log leptin levels were only significantly associated with HAM-A.ConclusionsThe data show that adiponectin and leptin levels are significantly associated with depression and anxiety symptoms. These results suggest that higher adiponectin and lower leptin levels may serve as potential markers related to anxiety and mood in postmenopausal women. More future research that is designed to deal with the important confounders (e.g., population heterogeneity) is needed to investigate comprehensively on these associations.
