Abstract
OBJECTIVE Most patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) have somatic symptoms, but little studies pay attention in the microbial-inflammatory mechanisms of these somatic symptoms. Our study aimed to investigate alterations in gut microbiota and its correlation with inflammatory marker levels and somatic symptoms in first-episode treatment-naive MDD. METHODS Subjects contained 160 MDD patients and 101 healthy controls (HCs). MDD patients were divided into MDD with somatic symptoms group (MDDS) and MDD without somatic symptoms group (MDDN) based on Somatic Self-rating Scale (SSS). 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing were performed to analyze the composition of the fecal microbiota. The inflammatory factors were measured using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Correlation among the altered gut microbiota, inflammatory factor and severity of clinical symptoms were analysized. RESULTS Relative to HCs, MDD patients had higher levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) as well as disordered α-diversity and β-diversity of gut microbiota. Linear discriminant effect size (LEfSe) analysis showed that MDD patients had higher proportions of Bifidobacterium, Blautia, Haemophilus and lower proportions of Bacteroides, Faecalibacterium, Roseburia, Dialister, Sutterella, Parabacteroides, Bordetella, and Phascolarctobacterium from the genus aspect. Furthermore, correlation analysis showed Bacteroides and Roseburia had negative correlations with the hs-CRP, HAMD-24, the total and factor scores of SSS in all participants. Further, compared with MDDN, the Pielous evenness was higher in MDDS. Random Forest (RF) analysis showed 20 most important genera discriminating MDD-S and MDDN, HCs. The ROC analysis showed that the AUC was 0.90 and 0.81 combining these genera respectively. CONCLUSION Our study manifested MDD patients showed disordered gut microbiota and elevated hs-CRP levels, and altered gut microbiota was closely associated with hs-CRP, depressive symptoms, and somatic symptoms.

Abstract
PURPOSE Existing evidence indicates an association between cognitive functioning and both geriatric depression and suicidality, with mixed evidence regarding the direction of the relationship between cognitive functioning and aspects of geriatric lifetime suicidal ideation. This study aims to examine the relationship between cognitive functioning, depression, and suicide ideation and to explore the intermediary role of depression between cognitive functioning and suicidal ideation in the older adults. METHODS A multi-stage random cluster sampling method was used to collect a sample of 3896 individuals aged 60 and above. Descriptive statistics of the sample data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA, and then the correlation between variables was obtained by binary logistic regression analysis. SPSS macro program PROCESS V3.5 was used to test the mediating role of depression in the relationship between cognitive function and lifetime suicidal ideation. RESULTS The prevalence of lifetime suicidal ideation among older adults was 3.9%. Lifetime suicidal ideation was associated with depression (OR = 1.308, P < 0.001) but was not significantly correlated with cognitive function (OR = 0.972, P > 0.05). The relationship between cognitive function and depression was also supported in this study (β = - 0.0841, P < 0.001). Depression completely mediated the relationship between cognitive function and lifetime suicidal ideation. CONCLUSION There was no significant correlation between cognitive impairment in older adults and a heightened risk of lifetime suicidal ideation. However, this relationship was completely mediated by depression. It is crucial to prevent the onset of depression among older adults with cognitive impairment, as depression is strongly linked to lifetime suicidal ideation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a major and common cause of suicide. The purpose of this article is to report the clinical characteristics and patterns of co-morbid suicidal behavior (SB) in first hospitalized and drug-naïve MDD patients. METHODS A total of 345 patients with first hospitalization and drug-naïve MDD with SB were included in this study, while 183 patients without SB were included as a control group. We collected socio-demographic, general clinical data and common biochemical indicators of all participants and assessed their clinical symptoms. RESULTS Compared to patients without SB, MDD with SB had more severe clinical symptoms and worse metabolic indicators. Duration of disease, depressive symptom scores, and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels was risk factors for SB and its number. CONCLUSIONS MDD patients with SB suffered more severe clinical symptoms and worse metabolic indicators, and risk factors for SB in this population were identified, which may provide beneficial insight and reference for clinical prevention and intervention of SB in MDD patients.

Suicidality and its associated factors among mood disorder patients in emergency department in China: a comparative study using propensity score matching approach. Transl Psychiatry 2023; 13:372. [PMID: 38040690 PMCID: PMC10692218 DOI: 10.1038/s41398-023-02675-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2023] [Revised: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 11/17/2023] [Indexed: 12/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Suicidality in mood disorder patients is common, especially in emergency department (ED), but the patterns and associated factors of suicidality are not clear. This study compared biomarkers and mental health symptoms (i.e., depression, anxiety, and psychiatric symptoms) between mood disorder patients with and without the whole range of suicidality comprising suicidal ideation (SI), suicide plan (SP), and suicide attempt (SA). This cross-sectional, comparative, convenient-sampling study was conducted between January 2021 and March 2022, in emergency department of Beijing Anding Hospital, China. Patients with mood disorders at a psychiatric emergency department were assessed, with measurements of suicidality, biomarkers, depressive, anxiety, and psychiatric symptoms were assessed using the 24 items-Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-24), Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA), Young Manic Rating Scale (YMRS) and Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS), respectively. The propensity score matching (PSM) method was used to identify patients in mood disorder with and without SI, SP, and SA. A generalized linear model (GLM) was used to assess the differences in biomarkers, depressive, anxiety, and psychiatric symptoms between patients in mood disorder with and without SI, SP, and SA. In total, 898 participated in this survey and completed the assessment. Illness duration was significantly negatively associated with SA (OR = 0.969, 95%CI = 0.939-0.999, P = 0.046). HAMD-24 total score was significantly positively associated with the SI (OR = 1.167, 95%CI = 1.134-1.201, p < 0.001), SP (OR = 1.159, 95%CI = 1.126-1.192, p < 0.001) and SA (OR = 1.189, 95%CI = 1.144-1.235, p < 0.001) of the matched samptched sample. However, YMRS total score was significantly negatively associated with the SI (OR = 0.928, 95%CI = 0.905-0.951, p < 0.001), SP (OR = 0.920, 95%CI = 0.897-0.944, p < 0.001) and SA (OR = 0.914, 95%CI = 0.890-0.938, p < 0.001) of the matched sample after adjusting for age, gender, marital status, and occupation. The duration of illness, severity of depressive symptoms and severity of manic symptoms appeared to be more likely to influence suicidality. Considering the significant risk of suicide in mood disorders on psychiatric emergency care, timely treatment and effective management of suicidality in this population group need to be developed.

Major depressive disorder with suicidal ideation or behavior in Chinese population: A scoping review of current evidence on disease assessment, burden, treatment and risk factors. J Affect Disord 2023; 340:732-742. [PMID: 37619652 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2023.08.106] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2023] [Revised: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/21/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Identifying and managing major depressive disorder (MDD) patients with suicidal ideation or behavior (MDSI) is critical for reducing the disease burden. This scoping review aims to map the existing evidence related to MDSI in the Chinese population. METHOD A scoping review was conducted to summarize the published evidence regarding epidemiology or disease burden, evaluation, diagnosis, management, and prognosis of MDSI. The search strategy imposed restriction on English or Chinese publications between 1 January 2011 and 28 February 2022. RESULTS Of the 14,005 identified records, 133 met the eligibility criteria and were included for analysis. The included studies were characterized as high heterogeneity in evaluation of suicidal ideation or behavior. Compared with MDD patients without suicidal ideation or behavior, MDSI patients were more likely to suffer from psychological and somatic symptoms, social function impairment, and lower quality of life. Younger age, female gender, longer disease course, and comorbid psychological or physical symptoms were consistently found to be risk factors of suicidal ideation or behavior. Relevant research gaps remain regarding comprehensive evaluation of standard clinical diagnosis, disease burden, social-cultural risk factors, and effectiveness of interventions targeting MDSI. Studies with large sample size, representative population are warranted to provide high-quality evidence. CONCLUSIONS MDD patients with suicidal ideation or behavior should be prioritized in treatment and resource allocation. Heterogeneity exists in the definition and evaluation of MDSI in different studies. To better inform clinical practice, it is imperative to establish a unified standard for evaluation and diagnosis of suicidal ideation or behavior among MDD population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore clinical characteristics and symptomatology of major depressive disorder (MDD) with atypical features based on DSM criteria or only reversed vegetative symptoms. METHOD A total of 3187 patients who met DSM-IV TR criteria for MDD were enrolled. Demographics and symptomatology covering multiple symptom domains were assessed and compared between three groups of cases: those who met DSM criteria for atypical specifier (the DAD group), those who had at least one reversed vegetative symptoms (hypersomnia or hyperphagia) (the SAD group) without meeting DSM atypical specifier criteria, and those without any reversed vegetative symptoms (the NAD group). RESULTS The DAD and SAD group accounted for 4.4 % and 14.4 % of the participants, respectively. The DAD cases were characterized by a highest proportion of hospitalizations, longest duration of current episode and worst quality of life. The DAD and SAD cases were more likely to adopt unhealthy behaviors (smoking and alcohol drinking). Most depressive symptoms related to higher illness severity and treatment resistance were more frequent in the DAD cases, followed by the SAD cases, and least frequent in the NAD cases. LIMITATIONS A cross-sectional design and a non-validated questionnaire were used. CONCLUSIONS The findings support the role of DSM defined atypical depression as a valid MDD subtype and provide evidence for clinical utility of the simplified approach of defining atypical features based on only reversed vegetative symptoms. This has implications for illness screening, public health, suicide prevention and better treatment planning for depressed individuals with atypical features even below syndromal level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Residual somatic symptoms (RSS) are common in depressed patients, predicting treatment effectiveness. However, sex differences in RSS have received little systematic study. This study was conducted to compare sex differences of RSS in patients with first-episode depression (FED). METHODS Nine hundred eighty-two patients with FED were selected and treated for 8 to 12 weeks. We evaluated the subjects' socio-demographic characteristics and residual depressive symptoms. Using the Patient Health Questionnaire-15 (PHQ-15) scale to assess residual somatic symptoms, the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) for the assessment of patients' function, the Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire-Short Form (Q-LES-Q-SF) for quality of life. RESULTS The incidence of RSS with FED was 46.4%. For patients with residual symptoms, the age and age of onset in females were higher than males, but males had more years of education than females. The degree of "stomach pain" in females was more severe than in males, while "trouble sleeping" in males was more severe than that in females. Multiple regression analysis showed that the total Q-LES-Q-SF score was an independent influencing factor of RSS in both males and females, while the total SDS score only affected female RSS. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of RSS in FED after acute-phase treatment is high. The symptom of "stomachache" is more pronounced in females, while "trouble sleeping" is more severe in males. Quality of life plays an essential role in RSS in both genders. Thus, sex needs to be considered when assessing the relationship between RSS and therapeutic effect in depression.

BACKGROUND The study was designed to investigate the associations between gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, medication use, and spontaneous drug discontinuation (SDD) in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). METHODS This cross-sectional study included 3256 MDD patients from the National Survey on Symptomatology of Depression (NSSD). Differences in the sociodemographic factors, clinical characteristics, medication use, and self-reported reasons for SDD were compared in patients with different frequencies of GI symptoms. A multiple logistic regression analysis was employed to assess the contribution of GI symptoms to the risk of spontaneous drug discontinuation. RESULTS MDD patients with a higher frequency of GI symptoms were prone to have higher proportions of mood stabilizer and benzodiazepine uses (ps for trend < 0.001) but a lower proportion of SNRI use (pfor trend < 0.001). With the increase in GI symptoms, patients were prone to report worries about long-term side effects (pfor trend < 0.001), with the patients stating ineffective treatments (pfor trend = 0.002) and intolerance of adverse drug reactions (pfor trend = 0.022) as the reasons for SDD. Compared with those patients without GI symptoms, all of the MDD patients with GI symptom frequencies of several days (OR = 1.317; 95 % CI: 1.045-1.660), more than half of all days (OR = 1.305; 95 % CI: 1.005-1.695), and nearly every day (OR = 1.820; 95 %: 1.309-2.531) had an increased risk of SDD. CONCLUSION GI symptoms are highly associated with drug discontinuation in MDD patients. These findings may have important implications for clinical treatment options, as well as for drug adherence management, in MDD patients.

Toward an integrative model of transdiagnostic risk factors and suicide: A network comparison of psychiatric outpatients. J Psychiatr Res 2022; 154:252-260. [PMID: 35961181 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpsychires.2022.07.050] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2022] [Revised: 06/20/2022] [Accepted: 07/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Predictive models using traditional statistical methods have largely failed to describe suicide etiology. Network theory, which conceptualizes factors as mutually interacting, reinforcing elements of a complex outcome, can model relationships between transdiagnostic and neurocognitive vulnerability factors. The present study used a network approach to produce an atheoretical model of psychological factors and their interrelationships within a population of ideators and non-ideators. We developed two network models (i.e., suicidal ideators and psychiatric controls) describing the relationships between a diverse set of risk factors and symptom measures for a population of psychiatric outpatients. We compared networks using three measures of network structure (i.e., network structure invariance, global strength invariance, edge invariance) and described the differences. Network structures for ideators (N = 229) and non-ideators (N = 454) were stable and accurate. In non-ideators, cognitive-affective depression symptoms (Expected Influence [EI]: 2.06), trauma avoidance (EI: 1.08), and negative affect (EI: 0.81) were most influential to the psychological network. In ideators, cognitive-affective depression symptoms (EI: 1.77), intolerance of uncertainty-negative self-referent implications (EI: 1.29), and negative affect (EI: 1.19) were most influential. Invariance testing did not indicate significant differences in overall network structure between ideators and non-ideators (p = .111), but did indicate significant differences in node strength (p = .013). Significant differences in node EI were detected for intolerance of uncertainty-negative self-referent implications, anxiety sensitivity physical concerns, thwarted belongingness, worry, and negative affect. These findings indicated differences in network structures for suicidal psychiatric outpatients and provide crucial directions for future research on therapeutic targets for suicidal thoughts and behaviors.

Abstract
The strategic location of primary care providers (PCPs) in clinics, private general practices and emergency departments is critical to the detection and appropriate management of patients with suicidal behaviour. Their position within the primary care setting and responsibility for preventive and promotive care require PCPs to possess good clinical skills and evidence-based knowledge to assist patients presenting with suicidal ideation and behaviour. The objective of this article is to provide guidelines for the management of suicidal behaviour within the primary care setting, with the goal of reducing deaths from suicide, and the frequency and intensity of suicide attempts. The priority in the management of patients presenting at health facilities following suicide attempts is medical resuscitation and stabilisation. As soon as the patient is medically stable, a thorough suicide risk assessment, which evaluates suicidal ideation/intent, preceding circumstances, predisposing and protective factors, should be conducted. An assessment of current and ongoing suicide risk will assist in determining the safest place to manage the patient. For those with a low level of suicide risk, outpatient management may be considered in the presence of a good social support system at home and a well-documented safety plan. Measures should be put in place to address the modifiable psychosocial risk factors for suicide, whilst appropriate pharmacotherapy is instituted for co-existing mental illness. Post-discharge care such as referral to psychologist, psychiatrist or social worker should be initiated by the primary care practitioner to ensure continuity of care. Support and psycho-education should also be extended to immediate family members of patients with suicidal behaviour for their own well-being and their ability to support the patient.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are one of the common somatic symptoms presented in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). Higher frequency of GI symptoms and higher GI symptom burden were linked to greater depression severity and increased risk of suicide ideation. However, few studies have explored the underlying mechanisms of GI symptoms in MDD. Based on previous studies, the cerebellar-DMN circuits may play a potentially critical role in GI symptoms comorbid with depression. Fifty-two first-episode drug-naive patients with MDD (35 with GI symptoms and 17 without GI symptoms) and 28 matched healthy controls were recruited in the current study and underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging scan. Cerebellar seed-based functional connectivity maps were established. Relative to depressed patients without GI symptoms, significantly increased cerebellar-anterior default mode network (DMN) connectivities were found in those with GI symptoms. Both increased and decreased functional connectivities were found between cerebellum and posterior DMN in patients with GI symptoms compared with those without GI symptoms and healthy controls. Moreover, the right Crus I - right superior temporal gyrus connectivity value was related to severity of GI symptoms and depression in all patients with MDD. The support vector machine analysis demonstrated a satisfactory classification accuracy (89%) of the disrupted cerebellar-DMN connectivities for correctly identifying MDD patients with GI symptoms. These results revealed the possible neural mechanisms for the involvement of cerebellar-DMN circuits in GI symptoms co-occurred with MDD.

Aberrant functional connectivity in insular subregions in somatic depression: a resting-state fMRI study. BMC Psychiatry 2022; 22:146. [PMID: 35209866 PMCID: PMC8867834 DOI: 10.1186/s12888-022-03795-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2021] [Accepted: 02/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Somatic depression (SD) is different from non-somatic depression (NSD), and insular subregions have been associated with somatic symptoms. However, the pattern of damage in the insular subregions in SD remains unclear. The aim of this study was to use functional connectivity (FC) analyses to explore the bilateral ventral anterior insula (vAI), bilateral dorsal anterior insula (dAI), and bilateral posterior insula (PI) brain circuits in SD patients. METHODS The study included 28 SD patients, 30 NSD patients, and 30 matched healthy control (HC) subjects. All participants underwent 3.0 T resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging. FC analyses were used to explore synchronization between insular subregions and the whole brain in the context of depression with somatic symptoms. Pearson correlation analyses were performed to assess relationships between FC values in brain regions showing significant differences and the total and factor scores on the 17-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD17). RESULTS Compared with the NSD group, the SD group showed significantly decreased FC between the left vAI and the right rectus gyrus, right fusiform gyrus, and right angular gyrus; between the right vAI and the right middle cingulate cortex, right precuneus, and right superior frontal gyrus; between the left dAI and the left fusiform gyrus; and between the right dAI and the left postcentral gyrus. Relative to the NSD group, the SD group exhibited increased FC between the left dAI and the left fusiform gyrus. There were no differences in FC between bilateral PI and any brain regions among the SD, NSD, and HC groups. Within the SD group, FC values between the left vAI and right rectus gyrus were positively correlated with cognitive impairment scores on the HAMD17; FC values between the right vAI and right superior frontal gyrus were positively related to the total scores and cognitive impairment scores on the HAMD17 (p < 0.05, uncorrected). CONCLUSIONS Aberrant FC between the anterior insula and the frontal and limbic cortices may be one possible mechanism underlying SD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although evidence-based and effective treatments are available for people with major depressive disorder (MDD), a substantial number do not seek or receive help. Therefore, this study aimed to (1) investigate the total help-seeking rate and first-time help-seeking choices; (2) explore the perceived helpfulness of 23 potential sources; and (3) evaluate the factors related to help-seeking behaviors among patients with MDD. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data came from the Tianjin Mental Health Survey (TJMHS), which included a representative sample of adult community residents (n = 11,748) in the Chinese municipality of Tianjin. Of these, 439 individuals were diagnosed with lifetime MDD according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual-fourth edition (DSM-IV) and administered a help-seeking questionnaire. RESULTS In a survey, 28.2% of patients with MDD living community reported that they had ever sought any help during their entire lifetime before the interview, with 8.2% seeking help in mental healthcare settings, 8.0% only in other healthcare settings, and 12.0% only in non-healthcare sources (e.g., family, friends, and spiritual advisor). Among help-seekers, the first help mainly was sought in non-healthcare sources (61.3%), followed by healthcare settings (25.8%) and mental healthcare settings (12.9%). The majority of MDD individuals thought the non-healthcare sources were not helpful and mental healthcare settings were helpful or possibly helpful to solve mental problems. Female, having 10-12 or higher education years, comorbid anxiety disorders were associated with increased help-seeking. CONCLUSION A small percentage of individuals with MDD living in community of Tianjin sought help. They preferred non-healthcare sources to healthcare settings. Demographic and clinical features were associated with help-seeking behaviors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Painful physical symptoms (PPS) are common in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD), but their prevalence has been mixed. This is a systematic review and meta-analysis of the pooled prevalence of PPS in MDD patients. METHODS Systematic literature searches were independently conducted in major databases (PubMed, EMBASE, PsycINFO and Web of Science). Data analyses were conducted using a random-effects model. RESULTS A total of 20 studies with 53,852 patients were included. The overall prevalence of PPS in MDD patients was 55.2% (95%CI: 47.9-62.3%), with a point prevalence of 64.2% (95%CI: 53.2-73.8%) and a 12-month prevalence of 57.0% (95%CI: 23.9-84.8%). No significant publication bias was found in this meta-analysis. CONCLUSION PPS are common in MDD patients. Considering the negative impact of PPS on daily functioning, effective preventive measures and routine screening should be conducted for MDD patients, and timely treatments should be offered to those in need.

Abstract
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder which is often associated with significant behavioral challenges and poor intellectual functioning. Research has shown that individuals with PWS are more likely to experience mental health problems, have higher relapse rates, and are at risk of self-harming behavior. Although PWS is associated with mild intellectual disability, which in itself confers a higher mortality rate, suicidality in this population is so far unreported in the literature. We present the case of an 18-year-old male patient who was admitted to our facility following exogenous insulin administration with suicidal intent. The main clinical characteristics, self-harming behaviors, and suicide risk factors of patients with PWS are discussed in this report. The article's objective is to redirect clinicians' attention to carefully screen and treat the underlying behavioral problems in PWS patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Suicidal ideation (SI) and suicide planning (SP) are associated with an increased risk of future suicide. We performed a meta-analysis of observational studies to estimate the prevalence of SI and SP in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and its associated factors. METHODS A systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, PsycINFO and Web of Science from their commencement date until 7 October 2020. Original studies containing data on the prevalence of SI and SP in individuals with MDD were analyzed. RESULTS Forty-six articles covering 53,598 patients were included in the meta-analysis. The overall prevalence of SI was 37.7% (95% confidence interval (CI): 32.3-43.4%) and the pooled prevalence of SP was 15.1% (95% CI: 8.0--26.8%). Subgroup analyses revealed that the timeframe over which SI was assessed, source of patients, study design, and diagnostic criteria were significantly associated with the pooled prevalence of SI. Meta-regression analyses revealed that the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) score and percentage of male participants were positively associated with the pooled prevalence of SI. Study quality and mean age were negatively associated with the pooled prevalence of SI. In contrast, survey year and study quality were negatively associated with pooled prevalence of SP LIMITATION: SI and SP were self-reported and subject to recall bias and impression management. CONCLUSIONS SI and SP are common in patients with MDD, especially among inpatients. Preventive measures and treatments focusing on factors associated with SI and SP may reduce the risk of suicide in patients with MDD.

Abstract
Given the major role played by sleep in the particular relationship between suicidality and major depression, the aim of this study was to empirically identify polysomnographic markers specific to suicidal ideation in major depressed individuals in order to allow better suicide prevention in this high-risk subpopulation. Demographic and polysomnographic data from 190 individuals (34 healthy controls and 156 untreated unipolar major depressed individuals) recruited from the sleep laboratory database were analysed. Suicidal ideation were considered present if the score in item G of the Beck Depression Inventory was ≥1 and/or if they were highlighted during the systematic psychiatric assessment conducted on admission to the sleep laboratory. Independently of depression severity, major depressed individuals with suicidal ideation present a decrease in deep NREM sleep (slow-wave sleep) and an increase in light NREM sleep (stage 1 + stage 2) compared to those without suicidal ideation. There are no significant differences for the other polysomnographic parameters. In our study, we highlighted the existence of potential polysomnographic markers of suicidal ideation in untreated unipolar major depressed individuals, which seems to open up new perspectives for the identification and management of individuals at high-risk of suicide in this particular subpopulation.

Abstract
Objectives: To examine the relationship between hearing loss and depression in older adults longitudinally. This paper uses a dimensional approach to conceptualising depression, with the aim of further enhancing understanding of this relationship.Method: 8344 community-dwelling adults aged 65 years and above enrolled in the Three-City prospective cohort study were included. Relationships between baseline self-reported hearing loss (HL) with the trajectory of different dimensions of depression symptoms over 12 years were examined using linear mixed models. Depression dimensions were determined using the four-factor structure of the Centre for Epidemiology Studies-Depression Scale (CESD): depressed affect, positive affect, somatic symptoms and interpersonal problems.Results: HL was associated with somatic symptoms of depression both at baseline (b = .07, p = .04) and over 12 years (b = .01, p = .04). HL was associated with poorer depressed affect and interpersonal problems at baseline (b = .05, p = .001, b = .35, p < .001; respectively), but not over follow-up. HL was associated with poorer positive affect symptoms over time (b = -.01, p = .01).Conclusion: HL had varied relationships with different dimensions of depression symptoms, and there were different patterns of adjustment for the dimensions. HL was primarily associated with somatic symptoms, suggesting that shared disease processes might partly underlie the relationship between HL and depression. Targeted assessment and treatment of somatic and positive affect symptoms in older adults with HL might facilitate better wellbeing in this population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The co-occurrence of insomnia and hypersomnia symptoms in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) is associated with suicidal ideation and functional impairment. The relationship between sleep disturbances and clinical features and outcomes may not be adequately studied. In this study, we measured the functional impairments and clinical features of co-occurring insomnia and hypersomnia symptoms in Chinese patients with MDD. METHODS A post-hoc analysis was performed on data from the National Survey on Symptomatology of Depression (NSSD), which assessed the MDD patients in 32 hospitals by a clinician-rating questionnaire. The clinical features and outcomes were compared among the following four groups: insomnia symptom only, hypersomnia symptom only, both insomnia and hypersomnia symptoms, no sleep disturbance, respectively. RESULTS Totally, 234 (7.15%) of 3275 participants with MDD co-occurred insomnia and hypersomnia symptoms. They had more depressive symptoms (27.41 ± 9.123), higher rate of suicide ideation (39.7%), more severe impairment in physical (58.1%), economic (32.9%), work (55.1%), and relationship with families (29.5%). Patients with both sleep disturbances were more likely to excessive worry about sleep, have suicidal ideation, the distress of social disharmony, more somatic symptoms, lack of energy, hyperphagia, loss of mood reactivity, and diurnal change, whereas less likely to have anxious mood. LIMITATIONS Sleep disorders were not diagnosed by current standard diagnostic criteria. CONCLUSIONS Patients co-occurring with both sleep disturbances are associated with a higher rate of suicide risk and poorer social function. Our study could provide implications for suicidal risk evaluation and the development of therapeutic strategies for depression.

Discrepancies in adolescent-mother dyads' reports of core depression symptoms: Association with adolescents' help-seeking in school and their somatic complaints. J Psychosom Res 2020; 137:110222.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Parents of adolescents with mental problems do not always recognize the symptoms in their children, particularly regarding depression, and therefore do not seek professional help. Adolescents themselves tend to seek help from school personnel for their emotional or social difficulties. In contrast, adolescents do report somatic complaints and parents are likely to seek help for these problems. The current study explored whether the divergence between maternal and child reports of depression symptoms is associated with child's help-seeking in school and patterns of somatic complaints. METHOD A sample of 9th grade students (N = 693; 56% girls; mean age = 15.1) and their mothers representing the Muslim and Druze populations in northern Israel were interviewed simultaneously and independently. Maternal reports were classified either as underestimating, matching, or overestimating their own child self-report of three core symptoms of depression (depressed mood, anhedonia, and irritability). Adolescents reported whether they had consulted school staff and were classified into clusters based on self-reported somatic complaints. RESULTS Maternal misidentification of their child's depression symptoms was associated with increased help-seeking in school, particularly by boys if depressed mood or irritability were misidentified and particularly by girls if anhedonia was misidentified. Hierarchical cluster analysis indicated that the number and severity of somatic complaints was higher among adolescents whose depression symptoms were not identified, regardless of gender. CONCLUSION Mental health professionals, educators and parents should be aware that adolescents may attempt to communicate their emotional difficulties through somatic complaints and by seeking help in school.

Abstract
A sequential-recruited clinical trial has been conducted to assess capacity of Patient Health Questionnaire-15 (PHQ-15) in distinguishing bipolar II disorder from major depressive disorder. A total of 73 patients (49 BD-II depression patients) filled sociodemographic characteristics, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 Questionnaire (GAD-7), and PHQ-15. Sum score of PHQ-15 showed statistically significant difference in the two groups (t-test, P = 0.027). The area under the curve was 0.663 (P = 0.025), and the specificity was 0.75 at sum score of 13. Patients with BD-II depression has more somatic symptoms than MDD, and PHQ-15 might be used for identification.

Association between cognition and suicidal ideation in patients with major depressive disorder: A longitudinal study. J Affect Disord 2020; 272:146-151. [PMID: 32379606 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2020.03.141] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2019] [Revised: 02/13/2020] [Accepted: 03/29/2020] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Suicidal ideation (SI) is common in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and often related to cognitive deficits. Limited longitudinal study has shown that cognitive improvement is associated with reduced SI. However, the comparatively study in Chinese depressed patients is still absent. The objective of this study was to explore the specific cognitive deficits in Chinese MDD with SI and investigate the relationship between changes in cognition and change in SI across antidepressant treatment. METHODS Three hundred and five patients with MDD received four weeks of antidepressant treatment. The 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-17) and four domains of the MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB), including speed of processing, working memory, visual learning and verbal learning were measured at baseline and four-week follow-up. RESULTS One hundred and thirty patients (42.6%) expressed suicidal ideation. Suicidal patients performed worse on verbal learning than non-suicidal patients. Change in speed of processing domain was negatively associated with change in suicidal scores over time. Logistic regression analysis showed that reduction of SI was associated with improvement of speed of processing. LIMITATION The major limitation was that there was no healthy control group in the current study, which might limit the interpretation of cognitive deficits in depressed patients with SI. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that suicidal patients performed worse on verbal learning which can potentially serve as a cognitive biomarker of suicide risk in MDD. Moreover, reduced suicidal ideation was associated with improved speed of processing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The potential link between sleep disorders and suicidal behaviour has been the subject of several reviews. We performed this meta-analysis to estimate the overall association between sleep disorders and suicidal behaviour and to identify a more specific relationship in patients with depression. METHODS A systematic search strategy was developed across the electronic databases PubMed, EMBASE and the Cochrane Library from inception to January 1, 2019 for studies that reported a relationship between sleep disorders and suicidal behaviour in depressed patients. The odds ratio (OR) and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to measure the outcomes. Heterogeneity was evaluated by Cochran's Q test and the I2 statistic. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was adopted to evaluate the methodological quality of each of the included studies, and the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach was used to assess the quality of the evidence. We calculated the overall association between sleep disorders and suicidal behaviour and estimated more specific categories, including insomnia, nightmares, hypersomnia, suicidal ideation, suicide attempt, and completed suicide. RESULTS A total of 18 studies were included in this study. Overall, sleep disorders were closely related to suicidal behaviour in patients with depression (OR = 2.45 95% CI: 1.33 4.52). The relatively increased risks of sleep disorders with suicidal ideation, suicide attempt and completed suicide ranged from 1.24 (95% CI: 1.00 1.53) to 2.41 (95% CI: 1.45 4.02). Nightmares were found to be highly correlated with the risk of suicidal behaviour (OR = 4.47 95% CI: 2.00 9.97), followed by insomnia (OR = 2.29 95% CI: 1.69 3.10). The certainty of the evidence was rated as very low for the overall outcome and the major depression subgroup and was rated as low for the depression subgroup. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis supports the finding that sleep disorders, particularly nightmares and insomnia, increase the risk of suicidal behaviour in depressed patients. Considering that all included studies were observational, the quality of the evidence is rated as very low. More well-designed studies are needed to confirm our findings and to better explain the mechanisms by which sleep disorders aggravate suicidal behaviour in depressed patients.

Abstract
Hearing loss (HL) is highly common in older adulthood, constituting the third most prevalent chronic health condition in this population. In addition to posing a substantial burden to disease and negatively impacting quality of life, an emerging literature highlights that HL is associated with unipolar depression including among older adults. This review outlines evidence examining the HL and depression relationship as well as clinical implications for assessment and treatment of comorbid depression and HL. Although prevalence estimates of comorbid depression in HL vary, as many as 1 in 5 experience clinically relevant depression symptoms. Both cross-sectional and longitudinal studies indicate that HL is related to increased unipolar depression symptoms, although the strength of the association varies between studies. A range of methodological variations, such as inclusion age, severity of HL and assessment of depression, likely underpin this heterogeneity. Overall, however, the evidence clearly points to an association of HL with clinically relevant depression symptoms. The association with the diagnosis of major depression disorder remains less clear and under-researched. HL is also associated with a range of other poor mental health outcomes in older adults, including anxiety and suicidal ideation, and predicts poorer cognitive functioning. Accordingly, assessment and treatment of comorbid depression in HL is pertinent to promote mental well-being among older adults. Currently, evidence regarding best practice for treating depression in HL remains scant. Preliminary evidence indicates that audiological rehabilitation, including use of hearing aids, as well as community-based hearing interventions can also improve mental health. Psychological intervention that enhances communication skills and addresses coping strategies might also be beneficial for this population. Additionally, evidence suggests that online interventions are feasible and may circumvent communication difficulties in therapy associated with HL. Due to poor help-seeking among this population, an enhanced focus on specific and targeted assessment and treatment is likely necessary to ensure reduced mental health burden among older adults with HL.
