Abstract
Background: Depression has been suggested to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, but many studies assessed depression after heart disease onset. This study evaluated the association between depression and myocardial infarction (MI) using a large inpatient database.Methods: We analyzed patients from the National Inpatient Sample hospitals from 2005 to 2020, selecting those aged >30 with ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes for segment elevation (ST) elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), non-ST elevation myocardial elevation (NSTEMI) and major depression.Results: Our data included 4413,113 STEMI patients (224,430 with depression) and 10,421,346 NSTEMI patients (437,058 with depression). No significant association was found between depression and MI. For STEMI, the 2005 odds ratio was 0.12 (95% CI: 0.10-0.15, p < 0.001) and the 2020 odds ratio was 0.71 (95% CI: 0.69-0.73, p < 0.001). Similar patterns were observed for NSTEMI.Conclusion: Depression may not independently be a significant risk factor for MI.
期刊介绍:
Research advances have contributed to improved outcomes across all specialties, but the rate of advancement in cardiology has been exceptional. Concurrently, the population of patients with cardiac conditions continues to grow and greater public awareness has increased patients" expectations of new drugs and devices. Future Cardiology (ISSN 1479-6678) reflects this new era of cardiology and highlights the new molecular approach to advancing cardiovascular therapy. Coverage will also reflect the major technological advances in bioengineering in cardiology in terms of advanced and robust devices, miniaturization, imaging, system modeling and information management issues.
