Included patients aged ≥16 without depressive symptoms at baseline from a patient registry.
Conducted baseline assessments including demographics, disease activity scores, and psychosocial factors.
Collected annual follow-up data on depressive symptoms using patient-reported outcomes for up to three years.
Utilized Cox regression models to evaluate associations between baseline factors and the onset of depressive symptoms.
Of 2,006 patients, 280 developed depressive symptoms over three years.
Depression-free survival decreased significantly from 90.5% at one year to 78.2% at three years.

Resultado

Onset of depressive symptoms (defined as HADS-D ≥8) over 3 yearspatient reported

Tenesmus, inadequate social support, and perceived stress, rather than baseline disease activity, are significant risk factors for the onset of depressive symptoms in patients with ulcerative colitis.

Resumen

Abstract Background Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) have more likely to experience depression and anxiety, especially during active disease. However, longitudinal data on the link between UC disease activity and depressive symptoms are limited. A prospective patient registry “YOURS” consisting of over 2,000 UC patients was established to explore how lifestyle and psychosocial factors affect clinical and mental health outcomes. This study aimed to examine the association between UC disease activity and the onset of depressive symptoms over 3 years. We explored modifiable risk factors for contributing to the onset of depressive symptoms. Methods Patients aged ≥16 years without depressive symptoms at baseline from YOURS registry were included. Baseline assessments covered demographics, disease activity (partial Mayo score), clinical characteristics, and lifestyle factors, and validated patient-reported outcomes, including the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-Survey (HADS-D), Modified Medical Outcomes Study Social Support Survey (mMOS-SS), and Japanese version of the Perceived Stress Scale (JPSS). Annual follow-up data, including HADS-D, were collected for up to 3 years. moderate 0.001; often adjusted HR 2.178, p = 0.021), inadequate social support (adjusted HR 0.989, p 0.001), and greater perceived stress (adjusted HR 1.036, p = 0.003) were significantly associated with an increased risk of the onset of depressive symptoms Conclusion Tenesmus and inadequate social support were significant risk factors for the onset of depressive symptoms, while disease activity was not. Addressing tenesmus and enhancing social support may help prevent the onset of depressive symptoms in UC patients.
