Abstract

Depressive symptoms have been associated with increased risk of coronary artery disease and poor prognosis among patients with existing coronary artery disease, but whether depressive symptoms specifically influence atherosclerotic progression among such patients is uncertain. The Post-CABG Trial randomized patients with a history of coronary bypass graft surgery to either an aggressive or a moderate lipid-lowering strategy and to either warfarin or placebo. Coronary angiography was conducted at enrollment and after a median follow-up of 4.2 years. Depressive symptoms were assessed at enrollment with the Centers for Epidemiologic Studies Depression scale (CES-D) in 1319 patients with 2496 grafts. In models that adjusted for age, gender, race, treatment assignment, and years since coronary bypass graft surgery, a CES-D score > or =16 was positively associated with risk of substantial graft disease progression (OR 1.50, 95% CI 1.08 to 2.10, P=0.02) and marginally associated with a 0.11-mm (95% CI -0.22 to 0.01 mm, P=0.07) decrease in minimum lumen diameter, but not with risk of graft occlusion (P=0.30). Additional adjustment for past medical history, blood pressure, and renal function did not materially alter these results. This ...Continue Reading
