摘要

目的:抑郁症是导致全球残疾的主要原因之一,也是全球疾病负担的重要组成部分,尤其是在发展中国家。它也是老年人最常见的精神疾病之一,是导致残疾和死亡的重要风险因素。尽管对撒哈拉以南非洲地区(尤其是埃塞俄比亚)老年人的研究很少,但本研究旨在填补上述空白:方法:2023 年 4 月至 6 月进行了一项基于社区的横断面研究。采用多阶段抽样技术,共纳入 607 名老年人。研究使用老年抑郁量表第 15 项,以≥5 为临界值,通过访谈方式进行问卷调查。统计分析采用二元逻辑回归模型:研究参与者的平均年龄为 72.45 岁(标准差 ±9.08)。抑郁症患病率为 45%。80岁及以上、70-79岁、丧偶、退休、已知慢性病和社会支持差是抑郁症的相关因素:与埃塞俄比亚不同地区进行的其他研究相比,本研究发现抑郁症的发病率较高,为 45%。这项研究的结果可为卫生专业人员、卫生政策制定者和其他相关利益方提供早期预警信号,并指导他们如何采取有效的控制措施和对老年人进行定期监测。

Burden of depression and its associated factors among older people living in Gondar town, Ethiopia: a community based cross-sectional study.

Objectives: Depression is one of the main causes of disability worldwide and makes a major contribution to the global disease burden, especially in developing countries. It is also one of the most prevalent psychiatric disorders in the older people and a significant risk factor for both disability and death. Despite the fact that little research has been done on it among those who live in sub-Saharan Africa, especially Ethiopia, the aim of this study was to fill the above-mentioned gap among older people.

Method: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted from April to June 2023. A total of 607 older people were included using the multistage sampling technique. An interview-administered questionnaire was used to assess depression using the Geriatric Depression Scale item 15 with a cut-off ≥5. For statistical analysis, the binary logistic regression model was employed.

Results: The mean age of the study participants was 72.45 (SD ±9.08) years. The prevalence of depression was found to be 45%. Age 80 years and above, 70-79 years, widowed, retired, known chronic disease, and poor social support were associated factors with depression.

Conclusion: Compared to other studies conducted in different regions of Ethiopia, the prevalence of depression in this study was found to be high, at 45%. The results of this study may be taken as providing health professionals, health policymakers, and other pertinent stakeholders' early warning signs and guidance on how to take efficient control measures and conduct periodic monitoring among older people.

期刊介绍: Aging & Mental Health provides a leading international forum for the rapidly expanding field which investigates the relationship between the aging process and mental health. The journal addresses the mental changes associated with normal and abnormal or pathological aging, as well as the psychological and psychiatric problems of the aging population. The journal also has a strong commitment to interdisciplinary and innovative approaches that explore new topics and methods. Aging & Mental Health covers the biological, psychological and social aspects of aging as they relate to mental health. In particular it encourages an integrated approach for examining various biopsychosocial processes and etiological factors associated with psychological changes in the elderly. It also emphasizes the various strategies, therapies and services which may be directed at improving the mental health of the elderly and their families. In this way the journal promotes a strong alliance among the theoretical, experimental and applied sciences across a range of issues affecting mental health and aging. The emphasis of the journal is on rigorous quantitative, and qualitative, research and, high quality innovative studies on emerging topics.
