Abstract:
Objective To investigate the prevalence of depression in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Additionally,to explore the relationship between depression and microinflammation,serum zinc levels and malnutrition in MHI) patients.Methods One hundred fifty-seven MHD patients were enrolled in this study.The patients were divided into two groups:depressed patients and non-depressed patients,according to the Beck Depression Inventory.The following data were collected:social factors,biochemical index,serum zinc levels,malnutrition-inflammation (MIS) score and IPI score.Binary logistic regression analysis was performed.Results Symptoms of depression were exhibited by 45.2% of MHD patients (71/157 ).Symptoms of moderate or severe depression were exhibited by 24.2 % of the patients ( 38/157 ).However,signicant differences were shown in age [( 62 ± 11 ) vs.( 50 ± 13 ) years old],MIS score [( 7.2 ± 2.2 ) vs.( 3.3 ± 1.6 ) scores],white blood cell count [( 6.4 ± 1.8 ) × 109/L vs.( 5.8 ±1.5) × 109/L],high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) [(9 ±6) vs.(4 ±4) mg/L],hemoglobin [(10.7±1.5) vs.(11.3±1.5) g/L],albumin[(33±4) vs.(37 ±3) g/L],fasting glucose [(6.7±3.5) vs.(5.6±2.1) mmol/L],serum zinc [(8.5±2.6) vs.(10.1 ±2.9) μmol/L] between depressed patients and non-depressed patients ( All P < 0.05 ). Binary logistic regressive analysis revealed that the independent risk factors of depression in MHD patients were their MIS score ( OR =2.908,95% CI =2.037 -4.151 ),as well as their hsCRP( OR =1.217,95% CI=1.075 - 1.370),serum zinc and fasting glucose levels(OR=1.315,95%CI=1.039 - 1.664).Conclusions There was a high prevalence of depression in MHD patients.Depression is also highly correlated with microinflammation,serum zinc levels,and malnutrition.MIS scores,hsCRP,serum zinc levels and fasting glucose levels.
