Abstract

Objective: To investigate the association between serum lipid level and depression in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Methods: A total of 348 patients with CHF from the First department of Cardiology of the people's hospital of Shaanxi province from September 2016 to June 2017 were included.The Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) was used to evaluate the degree of depression and some related clinical data were tested.The serum lipid level and depression scores in the patients were analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis, and Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the confounding factors of depression. Results: There was significant difference in the proportion of depression between normal serum lipid group and dyslipidemia group (P=0.044). Pearson correlation analysis showed that depression score was linearly related to total cholesterol (r=0.326, P<0.001) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (r=0.354, P<0.001), and Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for age, BMI, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, creatinine, total bilirubin, albumin, B type natriuretic peptide, total cholesterol (OR=3.523, P=0.007) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (OR=0.205, P=0.041) were ...Continue Reading

ApoE, Lipids & Cholesterol

Serum cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoprotein B (APOB)-containing lipoproteins (very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), immediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), lipoprotein A (LPA)) and the total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio are all connected in diseases. Here is the latest research.
