The clustering of type D personality and anxiety significantly increases the risk of developing depressive symptoms 12 months after PCI with drug-eluting stents.
Pedersen et al. (2008) conducted a cohort in Post percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (n=416). Clustering of psychosocial risk factors (type D personality and anxiety) vs. No risk factor group (neither anxiety nor type D) was evaluated on Depressive symptoms at 12 months (OR 12.38, 95% CI 6.11-25.09, p=<0.001). Clustering of type D personality and anxiety significantly increased the risk of depressive symptoms 12 months post-PCI compared to having no risk factors (OR 12.38; 95% CI 6.11-25.09).
