Activation of sigma 1 receptor attenuates doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity by alleviating oxidative stress, mitochondria dysfunction, ER stress-related apoptosis, and autophagy impairment. Int J Biol Macromol 2025; 310:143549. [PMID: 40294674 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2025.143549] [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: 01/03/2025] [Revised: 04/23/2025] [Accepted: 04/25/2025] [Indexed: 04/30/2025]
Abstract
The cardiotoxic effects of doxorubicin (DOX) are a significant clinical challenge. This study explored the mechanisms underlying the cardioprotective effects of fluvoxamine (FLU) in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. In vitro and in vivo models of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity were established using H9c2 cardiomyocytes and BALB/c mice, respectively. The cardioprotective effects of FLU were evaluated using echocardiography, electrocardiography, HE staining, myocardial injury indicators, immunohistochemical staining, immunofluorescence staining, and western blotting. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting the sigma-1 receptor (Sig1R), the Sig1R inhibitor haloperidol (HALO), and the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 inhibitor ML385 were used to verify the mechanism of FLU in H9c2 cells, and molecular docking was performed to compare the binding affinities of DOX and FLU to Sig1R. DOX treatment significantly decreased Sig1R expression, leading to cardiac dysfunction, endoplasmic reticulum stress, apoptosis, impaired autophagy, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Treatment with FLU mitigated these effects. Molecular docking simulations revealed that FLU showed better binding affinity for Sig1R than DOX. Moreover, the beneficial effects of FLU in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity were reduced in the presence of HALO, ML385, or Sig1R siRNA. Our study indicates that FLU effectively reduces DOX-induced cardiotoxicity by activating Sig1R, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic agent against chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity.

Wan H, Li H, Luan S, Zhang C. Efficacy and safety of antidepressant in post-myocardial infarction associated depression: a meta-analysis and systematic review. BMC Psychiatry 2025; 25:416. [PMID: 40269835 PMCID: PMC12020291 DOI: 10.1186/s12888-025-06843-y] [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: 06/12/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2025] [Indexed: 04/25/2025] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to summarize the available data and assess whether antidepressants are effective and well-tolerated in the treatment of post-myocardial infarction (MI)-associated depression. MATERIALS AND METHODS A comprehensive search of public databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Ovid, EBSCO, and the Cochrane Library) was conducted for publications on interventions for post-MI depression before October 2024. Keywords included post-myocardial infarction depression, antidepressants, myocardial infarction, and depression. Pooled data were analyzed using Stata software. RESULTS A total of twelve studies were included. At baseline, no significant difference was observed in depression severity between the antidepressant treatment and control groups (pooled SMD = -0.022, 95% CI: -0.087-0.044). Antidepressant treatment significantly reduced depression scores after long-term follow-up (pooled SMD = -1.023, 95% CI: -1.671- -0.375). The incidence of adverse cardiac events was not significantly higher in the treatment group compared to the control group (pooled HR = 0.893, 95% CI: 0.793-1.005). Antidepressants did not increase the risk of all-cause mortality (pooled HR = 0.957, 95% CI: 0.699-1.311), and there was no significant difference in the risk of rehospitalization for heart disease (pooled HR = 1.070, 95% CI: 0.820-1.398). Antidepressant treatment was associated with a reduced risk of MI recurrence (pooled HR = 0.787, 95% CI: 0.693-0.894) and revascularization procedures (pooled HR = 0.858, 95% CI: 0.755-0.975). Moderate-certainty evidence (GRADE assessment) supports antidepressant efficacy in improving depressive symptoms, while low-certainty evidence suggests potential cardiac risk reduction. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis demonstrates that antidepressants are effective and well-tolerated in the treatment of post-MI depression. Antidepressants can improve depressive symptoms without adversely affecting long-term prognosis. The clinical application of these findings should consider the moderate certainty for symptom improvement and low certainty for MI recurrence benefits.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of death in the US, and approximately 25% of MIs occurring each year are reinfarctions. Due to advances in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and medical therapy, patients with prior MIs live longer but may be susceptible to additional cardiac events. Thus, secondary prevention after MI or PCI is key to improving mortality and quality of life. This review discusses pharmacotherapies and lifestyle interventions with a special focus on cardiac rehabilitation in the post-MI or PCI period to improve cardiovascular outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a leading cause of disability and premature mortality. This study compared the overall survival (OS) between patients with MDD and non-MDD controls stratified by gender, age, and comorbidities. METHODS This nationwide population-based cohort study utilized longitudinal patient data (01/01/2010 - 12/31/2020) from the Hungarian National Health Insurance Fund database, which contains healthcare service data for the Hungarian population. Patients with MDD were selected and matched 1:1 to those without MDD using exact matching. The rates of conversion from MDD to bipolar disorder (BD) or schizophrenia were also investigated. RESULTS Overall, 471,773 patients were included in each of the matched MDD and non-MDD groups. Patients with MDD had significantly worse OS than non-MDD controls (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.50; 95% CI: 1.48-1.51; males HR = 1.69, 95% CI: 1.66-1.72; females HR = 1.40, 95% CI: 1.38-1.42). The estimated life expectancy of patients with MDD was 7.8 and 6.0 years less than that of controls aged 20 and 45 years, respectively. Adjusted analyses based on the presence of baseline comorbidities also showed that patients with MDD had worse survival than non-MDD controls (adjusted HR = 1.29, 95% CI: 1.28-1.31). After 11 years of follow-up, the cumulative conversions from MDD to BD and schizophrenia were 6.8 and 3.4%, respectively. Converted patients had significantly worse OS than non-converted patients. CONCLUSIONS Compared with the non-MDD controls, a higher mortality rate in patients with MDD, especially in those with comorbidities and/or who have converted to BD or schizophrenia, suggests that early detection and personalized treatment of MDD may reduce the mortality in patients diagnosed with MDD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although effective treatments for common mental health problems are available, individual responses to treatments are difficult to predict. Treatment efficacy could be optimized by targeting interventions using individual predictions of treatment outcomes. The aim of this study was to develop a prediction algorithm using data from one of the largest randomized controlled trials on psychological interventions for common mental health problems. METHODS This is a secondary analysis of the Enhancing Recovery in Coronary Heart Disease study investigating the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and care as usual (CAU) for depression and low perceived social support following acute myocardial infarction. 2481 participants were randomly assigned to CBT and CAU. Baseline social-demographics, depression characteristics, comorbid symptoms, and stress and adversity measures were used to build an algorithm predicting post-treatment depression severity using elastic net regularization. Performance and generalizability of this algorithm were determined in a hold-out sample (n = 1203). RESULTS Treatment matching based on predictions in the hold-out sample resulted in inconsistent and small effects (d = 0.15), that were more pronounced for individuals matched to CBT (d = 0.22). We identified a small subgroup of individuals for which CBT did not appear more efficacious than CAU. LIMITATIONS Limitations are a poorly defined CAU condition, a low-severity sample, specific exclusion criteria and unavailability of certain baseline variables. CONCLUSIONS Small matching effects are likely a realistic representation of the performance and generalizability of multivariable prediction algorithms based on clinical measures. Results indicate that future work and new approaches are needed.

Abstract
Background Depression is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), but the potential sex differences in this association remain unclear. Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the association between depression and subsequent CVD events, and to explore potential sex differences. Methods The authors conducted a retrospective analysis using the JMDC Claims Database between 2005 and 2022. The study population included 4,125,720 individuals aged 18 to 75 years without a history of cardiovascular disease or renal failure and missing data at baseline. Participants were followed up for a mean of 1,288 days to assess the association between depression and subsequent CVD events, such as myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, stroke, heart failure, and atrial fibrillation. Results Our analysis revealed a significant association between depression and subsequent composite CVD events in both men and women, with a stronger association observed in women. The HR for the composite endpoint was 1.64 (95% CI: 1.59-1.70) in women and 1.39 (95% CI: 1.35-1.42) in men after multivariable adjustment (P for interaction <0.001). Furthermore, the individual components of the composite endpoint were also associated with depression in both men and women, each of which was also observed to be more strongly associated in women. Conclusions Our study provides evidence of a significant association between depression and subsequent CVD events in both men and women, with a more pronounced association observed in women. These findings highlight the importance of addressing depression and tailoring prevention and management strategies according to sex-specific factors.

J Vasc Surg 2024; 79:96-101.e1. [PMID: 37704093 DOI: 10.1016/j.jvs.2023.09.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 09/03/2023] [Indexed: 09/15/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE There is increasing evidence that depression is a risk factor for worse outcomes in patients with peripheral artery disease. The association of depression in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) is not well described, nor is the impact of medical treatment for depression in this patient population. The objective of this study was to investigate the prevalence of depression in patients with CLTI, its association on major amputation and all-cause mortality, and whether medical antidepressant treatment is associated with improvement in these outcomes in patients with depression. METHODS A retrospective review of all adult patients (≥18 years old) diagnosed with CLTI from January 1, 2007, to December 31, 2018, at a single academic medical center was performed. Collected data included patient demographics, comorbidities, and diagnosis of depression within 6 months of initial CLTI diagnosis. We also collected data on use of antidepressant medications. Outcomes evaluated were need for major lower extremity amputation and all-cause mortality. Multivariable logistic regression models estimated the adjusted effects of comorbid depression and antidepressant medication use on major amputation and all-cause mortality. Kaplan-Meier survival curves illustrated the probabilities of survival and limb salvage over time, stratified by diagnosis of comorbid depression. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models estimated the adjusted effects of comorbid depression on time to major amputation and all-cause mortality, and the adjusted effect of antidepressant treatment on time to all-cause mortality. RESULTS A total of 2987 patients with CLTI were identified. Mean age was 68.6 years (standard deviation, 12.9 years); 56.5% were male, and 43.5% were female. Comorbid depression within 6 months of CLTI diagnosis was present in 7.1% of the cohort (212 patients). In multivariable analysis, comorbid depression was associated with a 68% increase in the odds of major amputation (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 1.68; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.19-2.37; P < .01), a 164% increase in the odds of all-cause mortality among patients not taking antidepressants (aOR, 2.64; 95% CI, 1.31-5.32; P = .03), and only a 6% increase in the odds of all-cause mortality among patients taking antidepressants (aOR, 1.06; 95% CI, 0.72-1.55; P = .99). The effect of comorbid depression on mortality varied significantly by whether or not the patient was taking an antidepressant medication (P = .02). CONCLUSIONS Comorbid depression in the patient population with CLTI is associated with a worse prognosis for major lower extremity amputation overall, and a worse prognosis for all-cause mortality among patients not taking an antidepressant. Furthermore, antidepressant treatment in the presence of comorbid depression in this patient population is associated with an improvement in the odds of all-cause mortality, illustrating the potential importance of medical management of depression.

Abstract
The evidence for the risks associated with anticholinergic agents has grown considerably in the last two decades. Not only are they associated with causing peripheral side effects such as dry mouth, blurred vision and constipation, but they can also cause central effects such as cognitive impairment; and more recently, they have consistently been linked with an increased risk of dementia and death in older people. This paper reviews the evidence for the associations of anticholinergic agents and the risk of dementia and increased mortality in dementia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression is common in patients with chronic viral hepatitis. We evaluated the impact of major depressive disorder (MDD) and antidepressant use on survival among patients with HBV and HCV. METHODS We used The Health Improvement Network database, the largest medical database in the UK, to identify incident HBV (n=1401) and HCV (n=1635) in patients between 1986 and 2017. Our primary composite outcome was the development of decompensated cirrhosis or death. MDD and each class of antidepressants were assessed in multivariate Cox proportional hazards models. Models were adjusted for age, sex, and clinical comorbidities. RESULTS The prevalence of MDD among HCV patients was higher compared with HBV patients (23.5% vs. 9.0%, p<0.001, respectively). Similarly, HCV patients were more likely to use antidepressants (59.6%) compared with HBV patients (27.1%), p>0.001. MDD was not an independent predictor for decompensated cirrhosis-free survival or mortality. However, the use of tricyclic and tetracyclic antidepressants (TCAs) was associated with poor decompensated cirrhosis-free survival in HBV and HCV cohorts (adjusted HR: 1.80, 95% CI, 1.00-3.26 and 1.56, 95% CI, 1.13-2.14, respectively). Both TCAs in the HBV cohort and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors among the HCV cohort were associated with poor overall survival (adjusted HR: 2.18, 95% CI, 1.16-4.10; 1.48, 95% CI, 1.02-2.16, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Although prevalent among viral hepatitis patients, MDD did not affect disease progression or survival in either HBV or HCV cohorts. TCA use was associated with poor decompensated cirrhosis-free survival. Therefore, its use should be further studied among viral hepatitis patients.

Abstract
Empirical evidence indicates a significant bidirectional association between mental disorders and physical diseases, but the prospective impact of men-tal disorders on clinical outcomes of physical diseases has not been comprehensively outlined. In this PRISMA- and COSMOS-E-compliant umbrella review, we searched PubMed, PsycINFO, Embase, and Joanna Briggs Institute Database of Systematic Reviews and Implementation Reports, up to March 15, 2022, to identify systematic reviews with meta-analysis that examined the prospective association between any mental disorder and clinical outcomes of physical diseases. Primary outcomes were disease-specific mortality and all-cause mortality. Secondary outcomes were disease-specific incidence, functioning and/or disability, symptom severity, quality of life, recurrence or progression, major cardiac events, and treatment-related outcomes. Additional inclusion criteria were further applied to primary studies. Random effect models were employed, along with I2 statistic, 95% prediction intervals, small-study effects test, excess significance bias test, and risk of bias (ROBIS) assessment. Associations were classified into five credibility classes of evidence (I to IV and non-significant) according to established criteria, complemented by sensitivity and subgroup analyses to examine the robustness of the main analysis. Statistical analysis was performed using a new package for conducting umbrella reviews (https://metaumbrella.org). Population attributable fraction (PAF) and generalized impact fraction (GIF) were then calculated for class I-III associations. Forty-seven systematic reviews with meta-analysis, encompassing 251 non-overlapping primary studies and reporting 74 associations, were included (68% were at low risk of bias at the ROBIS assessment). Altogether, 43 primary outcomes (disease-specific mortality: n=17; all-cause mortality: n=26) and 31 secondary outcomes were investigated. Although 72% of associations were statistically significant (p<0.05), only two showed convincing (class I) evidence: that between depressive disorders and all-cause mortality in patients with heart failure (hazard ratio, HR=1.44, 95% CI: 1.26-1.65), and that between schizophrenia and cardiovascular mortality in patients with cardiovascular diseases (risk ratio, RR=1.54, 95% CI: 1.36-1.75). Six associations showed highly suggestive (class II) evidence: those between depressive disorders and all-cause mortality in patients with diabetes mellitus (HR=2.84, 95% CI: 2.00-4.03) and with kidney failure (HR=1.41, 95% CI: 1.31-1.51); that between depressive disorders and major cardiac events in patients with myocardial infarction (odds ratio, OR=1.52, 95% CI: 1.36-1.70); that between depressive disorders and dementia in patients with diabetes mellitus (HR=2.11, 95% CI: 1.77-2.52); that between alcohol use disorder and decompensated liver cirrhosis in patients with hepatitis C (RR=3.15, 95% CI: 2.87-3.46); and that between schizophrenia and cancer mortality in patients with cancer (standardized mean ratio, SMR=1.74, 95% CI: 1.41-2.15). Sensitivity/subgroup analyses confirmed these results. The largest PAFs were 30.56% (95% CI: 27.67-33.49) for alcohol use disorder and decompensated liver cirrhosis in patients with hepatitis C, 26.81% (95% CI: 16.61-37.67) for depressive disorders and all-cause mortality in patients with diabetes mellitus, 13.68% (95% CI: 9.87-17.58) for depressive disorders and major cardiac events in patients with myocardial infarction, 11.99% (95% CI: 8.29-15.84) for schizophrenia and cardiovascular mortality in patients with cardiovascular diseases, and 11.59% (95% CI: 9.09-14.14) for depressive disorders and all-cause mortality in patients with kidney failure. The GIFs confirmed the preventive capacity of these associations. This umbrella review demonstrates that mental disorders increase the risk of a poor clinical outcome in several physical diseases. Prevention targeting mental disorders - particularly alcohol use disorders, depressive disorders, and schizophrenia - can reduce the incidence of adverse clinical outcomes in people with physical diseases. These findings can inform clinical practice and trans-speciality preventive approaches cutting across psychiatric and somatic medicine.

Centrally-acting anticholinergic drugs- associations with mortality, hospitalisation and cognitive decline following dementia diagnosis in people receiving antidepressant and antipsychotic drugs. Aging Ment Health 2022; 26:1747-1755.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Long-term use of anticholinergic medication in older people is associated with increased risk of cognitive decline and mortality, but this relationship could be confounded by the underlying illness the drugs are treating. To investigate associations between central anticholinergic antidepressants or antipsychotics and mortality, hospitalisation and cognitive decline in people with dementia. METHOD In cohorts of patients with a dementia diagnosis receiving antidepressant and/or antipsychotic medication (N = 4,380 and N = 2,335 respectively), assembled from a large healthcare database, central anticholinergic burden scores were estimated using the Anticholinergic Effect on Cognition (AEC) scale. Data were linked to national mortality and hospitalisation data sources, and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores were used to investigate cognitive decline. RESULTS There was a reduced mortality risk in people receiving agents with high central anticholinergic burden compared to those with no or low burden which was statistically significant in the antidepressant cohort (Hazard ratio (HR): 0.88; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.79-0.98; p = 0.023) but not the antipsychotic one (HR: 0.91; 95% CI: 0.82-1.02; p = 0.105). Patients on antidepressants with no central anticholinergic burden had accelerated cognitive decline compared with other groups, whereas no differences were found in the antipsychotic cohort. No significant associations were detected between antidepressant or antipsychotic-related central anticholinergic burden and hospitalisation. CONCLUSION These counter-intuitive findings may reflect factors underlying the choice of psychotropics rather than the agents themselves, although do not support a strong role for central anticholinergic drug actions on dementia outcomes. Further studies, including randomized switching of agents are needed to clarify this relationship.

Abstract
Introduction Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a consolidated procedure for the treatment of depression, with several meta-analyses demonstrating its efficacy. Theta-burst stimulation (TBS) is a modification of TMS with similar efficacy and shorter session duration. The geriatric population has many comorbidities and a high prevalence of depression, but few clinical trials are conducted specifically for this age group. TBS could be an option in this population, offering the advantages of few side effects and no pharmacological interactions. Therefore, our aim is to investigate the efficacy of TBS in geriatric depression. Clinical trial registration [https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/], identifier [NCT04842929].

Abstract
Depression is common in patients with ischemic heart disease, and depressed patients are more likely to develop atherosclerosis and experience major cardiac events compared with the general population. The underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of these two diseases are highly interwoven and include an increased release of stress hormones, dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system, alterations of pathways related to primary and secondary hemostasis, endothelial dysfunction, and higher level of residual inflammation. Furthermore, depression negatively impacts compliance with medication regimens. As such, early recognition and treatment of depression provide the opportunity to improve outcomes of patients with ischemic heart disease. In the present review, we provide a summary of the evidence on the epidemiology, pathophysiology and management of depression in patients with ischemic heart disease.

JMIR Med Inform 2022; 10:e33395. [PMID: 35442202 PMCID: PMC9069286 DOI: 10.2196/33395] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2021] [Revised: 02/25/2022] [Accepted: 03/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background As a major health hazard, the incidence of coronary heart disease has been increasing year by year. Although coronary revascularization, mainly percutaneous coronary intervention, has played an important role in the treatment of coronary heart disease, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) such as recurrent or persistent angina pectoris after coronary revascularization remain a very difficult problem in clinical practice. Objective Given the high probability of MACE after coronary revascularization, the aim of this study was to develop and validate a predictive model for MACE occurrence within 6 months based on machine learning algorithms. Methods A retrospective study was performed including 1004 patients who had undergone coronary revascularization at The People’s Hospital of Liaoning Province and Affiliated Hospital of Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from June 2019 to December 2020. According to the characteristics of available data, an oversampling strategy was adopted for initial preprocessing. We then employed six machine learning algorithms, including decision tree, random forest, logistic regression, naïve Bayes, support vector machine, and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), to develop prediction models for MACE depending on clinical information and 6-month follow-up information. Among all samples, 70% were randomly selected for training and the remaining 30% were used for model validation. Model performance was assessed based on accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, confusion matrix, area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC), and visualization of the ROC curve. Results Univariate analysis showed that 21 patient characteristic variables were statistically significant (P<.05) between the groups without and with MACE. Coupled with these significant factors, among the six machine learning algorithms, XGBoost stood out with an accuracy of 0.7788, precision of 0.8058, recall of 0.7345, F1-score of 0.7685, and AUC of 0.8599. Further exploration of the models to identify factors affecting the occurrence of MACE revealed that use of anticoagulant drugs and course of the disease consistently ranked in the top two predictive factors in three developed models. Conclusions The machine learning risk models constructed in this study can achieve acceptable performance of MACE prediction, with XGBoost performing the best, providing a valuable reference for pointed intervention and clinical decision-making in MACE prevention.

Abstract
The objective of this study is to determine the synergistic effects of an antioxidant ion Mg+2, combined with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor sertraline, in treatment or prevention of major depression and regulation of inotropic effect in the early postoperative period. Adult male 40 Wistar albino rats were randomly divided into 6 groups. Three to 4-mm long atrium strips were placed in organ bath, tension was adjusted to 2 g. Isometric contractions were induced with 10-3 M adrenaline. Group 1 was the control group, cumulative sertraline was given to group 2, cumulative MgSO4 to group 3, combined cumulative sertraline and MgSO4 to group 4, intraperitoneal sertraline injection for 29 days to group 5, and intraperitoneal MgSO4 injection for 14 days to group 6. Changes in weight, tensions, bleeding/clotting time, and biochemical findings were evaluated statistically. Isometric tension relationship between groups 1 and 3 was statistically significant after 4 mmol/L MgSO4 (p < 0.05). A rapid inhibition of contraction was observed in group 4. Inhibition of spontaneous contractions of groups 5 and 6 was found to be statistically significant at close values, p < 0.05. When blood clotting times were compared, a statistically marked decrease was found in group 6, p < 0.05. Compared to control group, there was a significant decrease in blood lipids in group 4. While LDH and CK-MB increased from plasma enzymes in groups 5 and 6, no significant change was observed in NT-proBNP. Combined treatment of high dose MgSO4 with antidepressants for pre or post-operative depression may cause fatal risks. Shortening clotting time may increase the risk of embolism and stroke. In order to reduce the risk of post-operative depression preoperatively, care should be taken when using magnesium combined with antidepressants and more studies are needed to be considered.

Abstract
AIM The guideline for coronary artery revascularization replaces the 2011 coronary artery bypass graft surgery and the 2011 and 2015 percutaneous coronary intervention guidelines, providing a patient-centric approach to guide clinicians in the treatment of patients with significant coronary artery disease undergoing coronary revascularization as well as the supporting documentation to encourage their use. METHODS A comprehensive literature search was conducted from May 2019 to September 2019, encompassing studies, reviews, and other evidence conducted on human subjects that were published in English from PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Collaboration, CINHL Complete, and other relevant databases. Additional relevant studies, published through May 2021, were also considered. STRUCTURE Coronary artery disease remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally. Coronary revascularization is an important therapeutic option when managing patients with coronary artery disease. The 2021 coronary artery revascularization guideline provides recommendations based on contemporary evidence for the treatment of these patients. The recommendations present an evidence-based approach to managing patients with coronary artery disease who are being considered for coronary revascularization, with the intent to improve quality of care and align with patients' interests.

Abstract
Depression emerges as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and it is thought that successful antidepressant treatment may reduce such a risk. Therefore, antidepressant treatment embodies a potential preventive measure to reduce cardiovascular events in patients with depression. Accumulating evidence indicates that antidepressants have off-target effects on vascular dysfunction and in the early stages of atherosclerosis, which form the basis for cardiovascular disease (CVD) pathogenesis. In this context, we performed a thorough review of the evidence pertaining to the effects of different classes of antidepressant medications on hemodynamic and early atherosclerosis markers. The preclinical and clinical evidence reviewed revealed a preponderance of studies assessing selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI), whereas other classes of antidepressants are less well-studied. Sufficient evidence supports a beneficial effect of SSRIs on vascular inflammation, endothelial function, arterial stiffening, and possibly delaying carotid atherosclerosis. In clinical studies, dissecting the hypothesized direct beneficial antidepressant effect of SSRIs on endothelial health from the global improvement upon remission of depression has proven to be difficult. However, preclinical studies armed with appropriate control groups provide evidence of molecular mechanisms linked to endothelial function that are indeed modulated by antidepressants. This suggests at least a partial direct action on vascular integrity. Further research on endothelial markers should focus on the effect of antidepressants on treatment responders versus non-responders in order to better ascertain the possible beneficial vascular effects of antidepressants, irrespective of the underlying course of depression.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION With the development of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI), a relatively uncomplicated treatment of depression and a safer alternative to tricyclic antidepressants was introduced. Any medical treatment has potential safety risks, however, and these risks should also be considered when prescribing SSRIs. AREAS COVERED The present review focuses on safety considerations when prescribing SSRIs to patients with previous stroke and myocardial infarction, as depression, and the need for antidepressant treatment, is common in these patients. At the same time, patients with stroke and myocardial infarction may be at increased risk of developing adverse events due to higher age, comorbidity, and co-medication. Specifically, the evidence of the risk of QT prolongation and bleeding versus thrombotic events will be discussed in the present review. EXPERT OPINION No medical treatment comes without risk and SSRIs are no exception. Depression, a common complication after vascular events, is a potentially life-threatening condition in itself and relevant and sufficient treatment is imperative. SSRIs are often the first medical treatment choice in the ambulatory setting, also in patients at increased cardiovascular risk. Relevant comorbidity and co-medication, however, should always be taken into account when initiating treatment and when choosing a specific SSRI.

Abstract
Yiqi Huoxue (YQHX) is widely used in traditional Chinese medical practice due to its reported cardioprotective effects. The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanism underlying these effects of YQHX via the regulation of the Sigma-1 receptor. The Sigma-1 receptor is a chaperone protein located on the mitochondrion-associated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. It serves an important role in heart function by regulating intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis and enhancing cellular bioenergetics. In the present study, male Sprague Dawley rats with myocardial infarction (MI)-induced heart failure were used. MI rats were administered different treatments, including normal saline, YQHX and fluvoxamine, an agonist of the Sigma-1 receptor. Following four weeks of treatment, YQHX was revealed to improve heart function and attenuate myocardial hypertrophy in MI rats. Additionally, YQHX increased the ATP content and improved the mitochondrial ultrastructure in the heart tissues of MI rats in comparison with acontrol. Treatment was revealed to attenuate the decreased expression of the Sigma-1 receptor and increase the expression of inositol triphosphate type 2 receptors (IP3R2) in MI rats. By exposing H9c2 cells to angiotensin II (Ang II), YQHX prevented cell hypertrophy and normalized the decreased ATP content. However, these positive effects were partially inhibited when the Sigma-1 receptor was knocked down via small interfering RNA transfection. The results of the present study suggested that the Sigma-1 receptor serves an important role in the cardioprotective efficacy of YQHX by increasing ATP content and attenuating cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.

Abstract
AIM Depression has been recognized as one of the disorders associated with cardiac interventions such as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). In the present study, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of sulforaphane in treatment of depression induced by cardiac interventions. METHODS After initial screening, 66 patients with previous history of at least one cardiac intervention and current mild to moderate depression were randomly assigned to two parallel groups receiving either sulforaphane (n = 33) or placebo (n = 33) for six successive weeks. Efficacy was assessed using the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D) at baseline and week 2, 4, and 6. Safety of the treatments was checked during the trial period. RESULTS Sixty participants completed the clinical trial (n = 30 in each group). Baseline demographic and clinical parameters were all similar among groups. Repeated measures analysis indicated that the sulforaphane group exhibited greater improvement in HAM-D scores throughout the trial (P < 0.001). Response to treatment (≥50% reduction in the HAM-D score) rate was higher in the sulforaphane group at trial endpoint (30% vs 6.67%, P = 0.042). Remission (HAM-D score ≤ 7) rate was also higher in the sulforaphane group; however, the difference was not significant (23.33% vs 3.33%, P = 0.052). Finally, no significant difference was observed between the two groups in terms of frequency of side effects. CONCLUSIONS Sulforaphane could safely improve depressive symptoms induced by cardiac interventions. Further clinical trials with larger sample sizes and longer follow-up periods are warranted to confirm our results.

Abstract
Patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) commonly have subclinical depression and are often delayed in their diagnosis. Literature suggests an increased association of depression and adverse cardiovascular events like myocardial infarction and heart failure. Prevalence of depression in developed countries is approximately 16.6%, and it confers higher cardiovascular mortality even after attrition bias and confounding factors are eliminated. Pharmacological and cognitive-behavioral therapy have been extensively studied, and are generally safe and effective in alleviating depressive symptoms in patients with CVD. However, their impact on cardiovascular outcomes is still unclear. Results of randomized controlled trials have shown antidepressants, especially selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, to be safe and effective for healing a "broken heart." This review outlines the prevalence of depression in patients with CVD, the pathophysiological mechanism causing cardiovascular events with depression, and a link between depression and CVD. There is a wealth of literature explaining the precursor of CVD in depression, and like all chronic diseases, inflammation seems to be the culprit in this case as well.

Abstract
Depression resulted as an important factor associated with the myocardial infarction (MI) prognosis. Patients with MI also have a higher risk for developing depression. Although the issue of depression after MI has become a matter of clinical concern, the molecular mechanism underlying depression after MI remains unclear, whereby several strategies suggested have not got ideal effects, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. In this review, we summarized and discussed the occurrence mechanism of depression after MI, such as 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) dysfunction, altered hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis function, gut microbiota imbalance, exosomal signal transduction, and inflammation. In addition, we offered a succinct overview of treatment, as well as some promising molecules especially from natural products for the treatment of depression after MI.

Abstract
Heart failure is a major contributor to healthcare expenditures. Many clinical risk factors for the development and exacerbation of heart failure had been reported, including diabetes, renal dysfunction, and respiratory disease. In addition to these clinical parameters, the effects of social factors, such as occupation or lifestyle, and environmental factors may have a great impact on disease development and progression of heart failure. However, the current understanding of social and environmental factors as contributors to the clinical course of heart failure is insufficient. To present the knowledge of these factors to date, this comprehensive review of the literature sought to identify the major contributors to heart failure within this context. Social factors for the risk of heart failure included occupation and lifestyle, specifically in terms of the effects of specific occupations, occupational exposure to toxicities, work style, and sleep deprivation. Socioeconomic factors focused on income and education level, social status, the neighborhood environment, and marital status. Environmental factors included traffic and noise, air pollution, and other climate factors. In addition, psychological stress and behavior traits were investigated. The development of heart failure may be closely related to these factors; therefore, these data should be summarized for the context to improve their effects on patients with heart failure. The present study reviews the literature to summarize these influences.

Abstract
As clinicians delivering health care, we are very good at treating disease but often not as good at treating the person. The focus of our attention has been on the specific physical condition rather than the patient as a whole. Less attention has been given to psychological health and how that can contribute to physical health and disease. However, there is now an increasing appreciation of how psychological health can contribute not only in a negative way to cardiovascular disease (CVD) but also in a positive way to better cardiovascular health and reduced cardiovascular risk. This American Heart Association scientific statement was commissioned to evaluate, synthesize, and summarize for the health care community knowledge to date on the relationship between psychological health and cardiovascular health and disease and to suggest simple steps to screen for, and ultimately improve, the psychological health of patients with and at risk for CVD. Based on current study data, the following statements can be made: There are good data showing clear associations between psychological health and CVD and risk; there is increasing evidence that psychological health may be causally linked to biological processes and behaviors that contribute to and cause CVD; the preponderance of data suggest that interventions to improve psychological health can have a beneficial impact on cardiovascular health; simple screening measures can be used by health care providers for patients with or at risk for CVD to assess psychological health status; and consideration of psychological health is advisable in the evaluation and management of patients with or at risk for CVD.

Abstract
Objective: The aim of our study was to identify immune- and inflammation-related factors with clinical utility to predict the clinical efficacy of treatment for depression. Study Design: This was a follow-up study. Participants who met the entry criteria were administered with escitalopram (5-10 mg/day) as an initial treatment. Self-evaluation and observer valuations were arranged at the end of weeks 0, 4, 8, and 12, with blood samples collected at baseline and during weeks 2 and 12. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was then carried out by incorporating three cytokines selected by the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression model. Internal validation was estimated using the bootstrap method with 1,000 repetitions. Results: A total of 85 patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), including 62 responders and 23 non-responders, were analyzed. Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), and lipocalin-2 were selected by the LASSO regression model. The area under the curve (AUC) from the logistic model was 0.811 and was confirmed as 0.7887 following bootstrapping validation. Conclusions: We established and validated a good prediction model to facilitate the individualized prediction of escitalopram treatment for MDD and created a personalized approach to treatment for patients with depression.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess the possible relation between use of antidepressant (AD) drugs, that is, tricyclic ADs, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and atypical ADs (AAs), and the risk of hospitalization for cardiovascular (CV) events among older patients with previous CV diseases. METHODS A nested case-control study was carried out among patients aged 65 years and older from 5 Italian health care territorial units who were discharged for CV disease during 2008 to 2010. The cohort was composed by 344,747 individuals, and of these, 97,739 (28%) experienced hospital admission for CV events (myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, stroke, heart failure) during follow-up (until 2014) and were included as cases. Up to 5 controls were randomly selected and matched to each. A conditional logistic regression was fitted to estimate the risk of CV events associated with ADs past or current use. A within-patient comparison was performed by the case-crossover design to account the effect of depression. FINDINGS Current users of SSRIs and AAs were at increased risk of CV events with odds ratios of 1.25 (95% confidence interval, 1.21-1.29) and 1.31 (1.25-1.37), respectively. An increased risk of arrhythmia and stroke was associated with current use of SSRIs and AAs, whereas an increased risk of heart failure was detected with current use of any ADs. The results were confirmed by the case-crossover approach. IMPLICATIONS Evidence that AD use is associated with an increased risk of CV events in accordance with specific mechanisms of action among older people with CV disease was added by this study.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of antidepressant therapy on mortality and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). METHODS AND RESULTS We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and performed a Bayesian random-effects meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials that investigated antidepressant pharmacotherapy in patients following ACS. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Secondary outcomes were repeat hospitalizations and recurrent myocardial infarctions (MIs). Ten randomized controlled trials with a total of 1935 patients qualified for inclusion. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors were investigated in six, bupropion in three, and mirtazapine in one trial. Placebo was used as control in eight trials. There was no difference in all-cause mortality [odds ratio (OR) 0.97, 95% credible interval (CrI) 0.66-1.42] and recurrent MI (OR 0.64, 95% CrI 0.40-1.02) between patients receiving antidepressants compared with controls, whereas antidepressant therapy was associated with less repeat hospitalizations (OR 0.62, 95% CrI 0.40-0.94). In patients with ACS and concomitant depression, antidepressants reduced the odds of recurrent MI compared with usual care/placebo (OR 0.45, 95% CrI 0.25-0.81). Extended funnel plots suggest robustness of the observations. CONCLUSIONS Antidepressants in patients following ACS have no effect on mortality but reduce repeat hospitalizations; in patients with depression, there is a reduced risk of recurrent MI with antidepressant therapy.

Abstract
Depression in patients with cardiovascular disease is independently associated with progression of heart disease, major adverse cardiac events, and mortality. A wide variety of depression treatment strategies have been studied in randomized controlled trials as the field works to identify optimal depression treatments in this population. A contemporary scoping review of the literature can help to consolidate and synthesize the growing and disparate literature on depression treatment trials in people with cardiovascular disease. We conducted a scoping review utilizing a systematic search of the literature via 4 databases (PubMed, PsycINFO, EMBASE, and Google Scholar) from database inception to March 2020. We identified 42 relevant randomized controlled trials of depression treatment interventions in patients with cardiac disease (n=9181 patients with coronary artery disease, n=1981 patients with heart failure). Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors appear to be safe in patients with cardiac disease and to have beneficial effects on depression (and some suggestion of cardiac benefit) in patients with coronary artery disease, with less evidence of their efficacy in heart failure. In contrast, psychotherapy appears to be effective for depression in coronary artery disease and heart failure, but with less evidence of cardiac benefit. Newer multimodal depression care management approaches that utilize flexible approaches to patients' care have been less studied but appear promising across cardiac patient groups. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors may be preferred in the treatment of patients with coronary artery disease, psychotherapy may be preferred in heart failure, and more flexible depression care management approaches have shown promise by potentially using both approaches based on patient needs.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the severe diseases that may cause significant moral and financial burden on society today. There are many studies in the literature on whether psychiatric disorders may cause CAD or an increase in prevalence after CAD. Although many studies have emphasized the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of depression in CAD patients, clinicians do not attach much attention to depression in daily practice. Several scales have been developed that are comfortable to use to describe anxiety and depression in CAD patients. High depression and anxiety scores predicted by psychological symptom scales following CAD treatment are closely related to treatment success and prognosis of the CAD. We believe that patients with CAD should be followed carefully for the diagnosis of depression and anxiety disorders; since the treatment of them may improve the prognosis of CAD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A third of hypertensive patients have major depression, a relationship that is associated with a worse prognosis. The objective of the study was to estimate the association between depression and high blood pressure, as well as to establish the possible bidirectionality of the conditions. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective cohort study. People between 18 and 65 years old with high blood pressure, depression or use of medications for their management were included. To analyze the antecedent, a comorbidity model was performed. A bivariate analysis was performed and then a multivariate logistic regression. The association was estimated using the Chi-square test and the odds ratios that were crude and adjusted to the other variables included in the analysis. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test was used to assess the goodness of fit. SPSS® v.21 was used as the statistical package. RESULTS A total of 1,721 people were included in the study. The prevalence of depression in patients with and without hypertension was 17.4 and 12.6%, respectively, with a 43% risk of hypertension in people with depression. In patients with depression, it preceded the diagnosis of hypertension in 64.8% of cases and in hypertensive patients, 22.2% were later diagnosed with depression. The association between high blood pressure and major depression remained significant after adjusting for the other risk factors. CONCLUSIONS Depression was found as a risk factor for high blood pressure, with a 2-way risk relationship between depression and high blood pressure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression is common in patients after acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and has been associated with increased mortality and morbidity. However, it is unclear whether selective serotonin receptor inhibitors (SSRIs) reduce mortality or cardiac events in patients with CAD and depression. OBJECTIVE We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the effects of SSRIs on cardiovascular events in depressed CAD patients. METHODS The CENTRAL, MEDLINE, and PsycINFO databases were searched (April 2020) for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and extended follow-up analyses of RCTs that compared SSRIs with placebo or no intervention in patients with CAD and depression. The primary outcomes were all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, and myocardial infarction incidence. The results were calculated through random-effect meta-analyses and reported in terms of risk ratio (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS We retrieved 8 RCTs (2 of which with extended follow-up analyses), comprising a total of 1148 patients. 7 studies only included post-ACS patients. SSRIs were associated with a significantly lower risk of myocardial infarction in patients with CAD and depression (RR 0.54, 95% CI 0.34-0.86), and in post-ACS patients with depression (RR 0.56, 95% CI 0.35-0.90). We found no statistically significant difference in all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, hospitalizations, angina, congestive heart failure, or stroke incidence. CONCLUSION The use of SSRIs in post-ACS patients with depression was associated with a 44% relative risk reduction of myocardial infarction. No difference in mortality was found. Given that the quality of the evidence was low, further research is warranted.

Abstract
AbstractBackgroundThe threshold to secondary health care should be similar for all patients independent of the underlying disease. This study compared, using a validated health-related quality of life (HRQoL)-instrument, whether the perceived burden of illness is similar in patients admitted for secondary care treatment into a university hospital because of one of six common conditions.MethodsHRQoL, assessed by the generic 15D instrument before elective treatment, was compared in six groups: operative treatment of cataract (n = 219), operative treatment of cervical or lumbar radicular pain (n = 270), hysterectomy due to benign uterine conditions (n = 337), hip or knee replacement surgery (n = 223), coronary angiography due to suspected coronary artery disease (n = 261), and secondary care treatment of depression (n = 89).ResultsMean (±SD) HRQoL score was clearly highest in patients with benign uterine conditions (0.908 ± 0.071) and lowest in patients with depression (0.729 ± 0.120) (P < 0.001 between the groups). Also all the other groups had a significantly (P < 0.001) higher baseline HRQoL score (ranging from 0.802 to 0.824) than patients with depression. Outcome of treatment, in terms of HRQoL improvement, was in depressive patients at least equal, and in some cases even better, than that in the other groups.DiscussionOur results imply that, at least concerning perceived burden of illness, patients with depression are worse off when admitted to secondary care treatment than patients with many somatic conditions. That may be a consequence of poor motivation of depressive patients to seek treatment or that, contradictory to guidelines, the health care system does nor give priority to those worst off and sets a higher threshold for specialized care of patients with depression than of those with common somatic disorders.

Abstract
Introduction Patients who are anxious or depressed after an acute cardiac event are at increased risk of a subsequent event and premature death. It is therefore important to identify these patients early in order to initiate supportive or even preventive measures. In the present study, we report on the prevalence of anxiety and depression during the first 12 months after an acute cardiac event, and the patient characteristics predictive of increased anxiety and depression risk in early and late convalescence. Methods We recruited a sample of 911 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and/or unstable angina (UA), and/or undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABGS). Patients completed the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) close to the time of their event, and again during early (2–4 months post-event) and late (6–12 months post-event) convalescence. Using HADS-A and HADS-D cut-offs of 8+, prevalence rates for anxiety, depression, and comorbid anxiety and depression were determined for each timepoint. Chi-square tests and odds ratios were used to identify baseline patient characteristics associated with increased anxiety and depression risk over 12 months. Results Anxiety rates were 43, 28, and 27% at the time of the event, early, and late convalescence. Depression rates were 22, 17, and 15%, respectively. Factors consistently associated with increased anxiety and depression risk were history of depression, financial strain, poor self-rated health, low socioeconomic status, younger age (<55 years), and smoking. Obesity, diabetes, and social isolation (living alone or being unpartnered) were identified as important albeit less significant risk factors. Neither sex nor event type were predictive of anxiety or depression. Conclusion This large patient sample provided the opportunity to identify rates of anxiety and depression during the 12 months after a cardiac event and key patient characteristics for increased risk. These risk factors are easily identifiable at the time of the event, and could be used to guide the targeting of support programs for patients at risk.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess whether a history of major depressive disorder (MDD) in middle-aged individuals with hypertension influences first-onset cardiovascular disease outcomes. DESIGN Prospective cohort survival analysis using Cox proportional hazards regression with a median follow-up of 63 months (702 902 person-years). Four mutually exclusive groups were compared: hypertension only (n=56 035), MDD only (n=15 098), comorbid hypertension plus MDD (n=12 929) and an unaffected (no hypertension, no MDD) comparison group (n=50 798). SETTING UK Biobank. PARTICIPANTS UK Biobank participants without cardiovascular disease aged 39-70 who completed psychiatric questions relating International Classification of Diseases-10 Revision (ICD-10) diagnostic criteria on a touchscreen questionnaire at baseline interview in 2006-2010 (n=134 860). PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES First-onset adverse cardiovascular outcomes leading to hospital admission or death (ICD-10 codes I20-I259, I60-69 and G45-G46), adjusted in a stepwise manner for sociodemographic, health and lifestyle features. Secondary analyses were performed looking specifically at stroke outcomes (ICD-10 codes I60-69 and G45-G46) and in gender-separated models. RESULTS Relative to controls, adjusted HRs for adverse cardiovascular outcomes were increased for the hypertension only group (HR 1.36, 95% CI 1.22 to 1.52) and were higher still for the comorbid hypertension plus MDD group (HR 1.66, 95% CI 1.45 to 1.9). HRs for the comorbid hypertension plus MDD group were significantly raised compared with hypertension alone (HR 1.22, 95% CI 1.1 to 1.35). Interaction measured using relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI) and likelihood ratios (LRs) were identified at baseline (RERI 0.563, 95% CI 0.189 to 0.938; LR p=0.0116) but not maintained during the follow-up. LIMITATIONS Possible selection bias in UK Biobank and inability to assess for levels of medication adherence. CONCLUSIONS Comorbid hypertension and MDD conferred greater hazard than hypertension alone for adverse cardiovascular outcomes, although evidence of interaction between hypertension and MDD was inconsistent over time. Future cardiovascular risk prediction tools may benefit from the inclusion of questions about prior history of depressive disorders.

Abstract
Introduction Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous inflammatory disorder. Sarcoidosis is associated with significant morbidity and rising healthcare utilisation. Patients with sarcoidosis report higher psychological symptoms than the general population. We evaluated the association between depressive and anxiety symptoms and clinical outcomes in patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis requiring treatment. Methods Adult patients in the Johns Hopkins Sarcoidosis Clinic diagnosed with pulmonary sarcoidosis on treatment were eligible for enrollment. Questionnaires were administered to assess depressive and anxiety symptoms, healthcare utilisation and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Results 112 participants were enrolled (57% women, 53% African American, median age: 57 years). 34% of participants screened positive for mild and 20% for moderate–severe depressive symptoms. 25% of participants screened positive for mild and 12% for moderate–severe anxiety symptoms. Participants with moderate–severe psychological symptoms had a higher odds of an emergency department visit in the previous 6 months (8.87 for depressive symptoms and 13.05 for anxiety symptoms) and worse HRQoL compared with participants without psychological symptoms. Participants with moderate–severe depressive symptoms had lower diffusion capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide % predicted compared with those without depressive symptoms. There was no association between elevated psychological symptoms and the odds of hospitalisation, forced vital capacity % predicted and forced expiratory volume in 1 second % predicted. Conclusion Psychological symptoms may be associated with worse clinical outcomes in sarcoidosis. Improving the recognition through clinic screening and referral for treatment of depression and anxiety in sarcoidosis may reduce acute healthcare utilisation and improve HRQoL.

Abstract
Serotonin syndrome (SS) (also referred to as serotonin toxicity) is a potentially life-threatening drug-induced toxidrome associated with increased serotonergic activity in both the peripheral (PNS) and central nervous systems (CNS). It is characterised by a dose-relevant spectrum of clinical findings related to the level of free serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine [5-HT]), or 5-HT receptor activation (predominantly the 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A subtypes), which include neuromuscular abnormalities, autonomic hyperactivity, and mental state changes. Severe SS is only usually precipitated by the simultaneous initiation of 2 or more serotonergic drugs, but the syndrome can also occur after the initiation of a single serotonergic drug in a susceptible individual, the addition of a second or third agent to long-standing doses of a maintenance serotonergic drug, or after an overdose. The combination of a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI), in particular MAO-A inhibitors that preferentially inhibit the metabolism of 5-HT, with serotonergic drugs is especially dangerous, and may lead to the most severe form of the syndrome, and occasionally death. This review describes our current understanding of the pathophysiology, clinical presentation and management of SS, and summarises some of the drugs and interactions that may precipitate the condition. We also discuss the newer novel psychoactive substances (NPSs), a growing public health concern due to their increased availability and use, and their potential risk to evoke the syndrome. Finally, we discuss whether the inhibition of tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH), in particular the neuronal isoform (TPH2), may provide an opportunity to pharmacologically target central 5-HT synthesis, and so develop new treatments for severe, life-threatening SS.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is one of the leading causes of death. Depression and/or anxiety after ACS is common. Studies from developed countries have reported that the occurrence of anxiety or depression after ACS might increase the risk of cardiovascular events and mortality. However, the results varied, and are limited in developing countries. Therefore, well designed large-scale real-world study is needed to make further clarification. The main objective of this study is to evaluate whether depression or anxiety could affect the prognosis of patients with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) post-ACS. METHOD AND ANALYSIS The study is a prospective, multicentre, cohort study, which will be performed at 12 large hospitals in northwest China and led by the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University. A total of 5000 patients with PCI post-ACS will be enrolled and followed up for 2 years. Their depression and anxiety status will be evaluated with the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 or Generalised Anxiety Disorder-7 Assessment scales during the follow-up. A Cox proportional hazard model will be used to determine if depression/anxiety after PCI increase the risk of cardiovascular events. The impact of antidepression or antianxiety treatment on the cardiac prognosis will be explored as well among the patients with ACS who received the treatment after PCI. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This study has been approved by the ethics committee of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University (approval number: XJTU1AF2016LSL-036). The results will be published in research articles or conference papers. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03057691.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression and coronary artery disease (CAD) are leading causes of death and disability and commonly co-occur. Different antidepressant classes have similar efficacy for depressed patients with CAD, but cardiovascular implications are unclear. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and mirtazapine are first-line options for depressed patients with CAD. SSRIs, but not mirtazapine, have known antiplatelet effects. Whether this affects risk of bleeding and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in patients requiring dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is unknown. OBJECTIVE The aim of this analysis is to examine the impact of SSRI treatment on the co-primary endpoints of composite MACE (death, myocardial infarction, or stroke) and composite bleeding events in patients treated with clopidogrel-based DAPT after PCI. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study with co-primary endpoints of bleeding and MACE within 1 year of PCI. Three groups were compared: SSRI patients, mirtazapine patients, and patients on neither agent. Mirtazapine acted as a comparator to control for depression, for which diagnosis coding was inadequate. Time-to-event analyses were performed with Kaplan-Meier estimators and adjusted analyses utilized Cox proportional hazards. There were 6874 (820 SSRI, 55 mirtazapine, 5999 neither) patients included. RESULTS SSRI patients had lower MACE risk than mirtazapine patients (hazard ratio [HR] 0.61, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.38-0.97, p = 0.036) but higher MACE risk than patients on neither agent (HR 1.21, 95% CI 1.02-1.43, p = 0.030) in adjusted analyses. No significant differences were associated with bleeding risk (SSRI vs. neither adjusted HR 1.07, 95% CI 0.93-1.24, p = 0.36). CONCLUSION SSRI use was associated with a significant decrease in MACE rates compared with patients receiving mirtazapine. Bleeding risk was not affected by either antidepressant treatment. SSRIs may have cardioprotective benefits compared with mirtazapine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine whether depression symptoms or antidepressant medication (ADM) use predicts the probability of cardiovascular events in overweight/obese individuals with type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Preplanned analyses of depression and incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) were performed in the Look AHEAD (Action for Health in Diabetes) weight loss trial after a median follow-up of 9.6 years. Depression symptoms, assessed with the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), were analyzed both as a continuous and dichotomized variable (BDI score <10 or ≥10). ADM use was coded from participants' prescription medications. Four composite CVD outcomes were defined in the study protocol. Sex-stratified Cox proportional hazards models were adjusted for a range of baseline covariates. RESULTS Depression symptoms were only significantly associated with a composite secondary outcome comprising CVD death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, hospitalized angina, congestive heart failure, peripheral vascular disease, coronary artery bypass graft, and carotid endarterectomy. Significant sex interactions were observed for BDI score and BDI score ≥10. BDI score was significantly associated with higher probability of this composite outcome in men but was not associated with the outcome in women. BDI score ≥10 was positively associated with this composite outcome in men but was negatively associated in women. Exploratory analysis identified a significant BDI ≥10 × ADM use interaction for this composite outcome that differed in men versus women. Men with both BDI score ≥10 and ADM use compared with those with neither had 60% higher probability of the outcome, whereas women with both compared with those with neither had 50% lower probability. CONCLUSIONS Sex differences in the association of depression symptoms and ADM use with incident CVD warrant further investigation.

Abstract
AIMS To assess the impact of antidepressant (AD) prescription at discharge on 1-year outcome of patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in Switzerland. METHODS We used data from the AMIS Plus registry including patients admitted between March 2005 and August 2016 with AMI to a Swiss hospital who were followed up by telephone, 12 months after discharge. We compared patients who received AD medication at discharge with those who did not, with regard to baseline characteristics and outcomes in 1-year follow-ups using logistic regression. Outcome endpoints included mortality, re-hospitalisation, cerebrovascular events, re-infarction, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), coronary artery bypass graft as well as pacemaker and/or cardioverter-defibrillator implantations. Additionally, work and daily life conditions were compared between the groups. RESULTS Among 8911 AMI patients, 565 (6.3%) received AD at discharge. These patients were predominantly female, older, experienced more often non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, were in higher Killip classes, and had more frequently hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidaemia, obesity and comorbidities. They underwent less frequently PCI, and stayed in hospital longer. The AD-receiving group had higher crude all-cause mortality at 1-year follow-up than the non-receiving group (7.4% vs 3.4%; p < .001) and AD prescription was an independent predictor for mortality (OR 1.67; CI: 1.17 to 2.40). CONCLUSION AD medication at discharge was associated with poorer prognosis in AMI patients at 1-year follow-up. However, this study has limited data on depression diagnosis and drug classes. Further research is needed to pinpoint the causes and underlying pathomechanisms for the higher mortality observed in this patient group.

Abstract
SUMMARY BACKGROUND: There is no strong evidence on the link between inflammatory profile and pattern of drug treatment response in depressive patients that could result in Coronary Artery Disease occurrence. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the subclinical atherosclerosis markers, inflammatory profile, and BDNF production in Resistant Depression (RD) or Bipolar Affective Disorder (BAD) patients under conventional treatment. METHODS: The population evaluated was comprised of 34 RD, 43 BAD, and 41 controls. Subclinical atherosclerosis markers were evaluated using ultrasonography, tomography, and exercise stress test. Plasma concentrations of TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6, and BDNF were measured using Luminex100™. The usCRP concentration was measured using turbidimetric immunoassay. IL1B, IL6, and TNFA expression were determined using TaqMan®. For the statistical analysis, the significance level was established at p<0.05. RESULTS: Concerning subclinical atherosclerosis markers, only O2 consumption was reduced in the BAD group (p = 0.001). Although no differences were found in gene expression, BDNF and IL-1β plasma concentration was increased in the RD group (p = 0.002 and p = 0.005, respectively) even with an antidepressant treatment, which suggests that these drugs have no effect in IL-1β secretion and that the inflammasome may play a role in therapy response. CONCLUSION: Taken together, both BDNF and IL-1β plasma concentrations could be used to the early identification of RD patients.

Molecular aspects of depression: A review from neurobiology to treatment. Eur J Pharmacol 2019; 851:99-121. [PMID: 30776369 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2019.02.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 80] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2018] [Revised: 02/14/2019] [Accepted: 02/14/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Major depressive disorder (MDD), also known as unipolar depression, is one of the leading causes of disability and disease worldwide. The signs and symptoms are low self‑esteem, anhedonia, feeling of worthlessness, sense of rejection and guilt, suicidal thoughts, among others. This review focuses on studies with molecular-based approaches involving MDD to obtain an integrated, more detailed and comprehensive view of the brain changes produced by this disorder and its treatment and how the Central Nervous System (CNS) produces neuroplasticity to orchestrate adaptive defensive behaviors. This article integrates affective neuroscience, psychopharmacology, neuroanatomy and molecular biology data. In addition, there are two problems with current MDD treatments, namely: 1) Low rates of responsiveness to antidepressants and too slow onset of therapeutic effect; 2) Increased stress vulnerability and autonomy, which reduces the responses of currently available treatments. In the present review, we encourage the prospection of new bioactive agents for the development of treatments with post-transduction mechanisms, neurogenesis and pharmacogenetics inducers that bring greater benefits, with reduced risks and maximized access to patients, stimulating the field of research on mood disorders in order to use the potential of preclinical studies. For this purpose, improved animal models that incorporate the molecular and anatomical tools currently available can be applied. Besides, we encourage the study of drugs that do not present "classical application" as antidepressants, (e.g., the dissociative anesthetic ketamine and dextromethorphan) and drugs that have dual action mechanisms since they represent potential targets for novel drug development more useful for the treatment of MDD.
