Abstract

Background

Sedentary behavior and depression have been linked to inflammation. However, the specific role of inflammation in the relationship between sedentary behavior and depression remains unclear.

Method

We examined associations among the inflammatory marker (neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio [NLR]), sedentary behavior, and depression in a robust, ethnically diverse sample (n = 29,769) from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).

Result

Our findings indicate that individuals experiencing depression and/or engaging in sedentary behavior show elevated levels of the NLR. Even after adjusting for confounding variables such as age, sex, and body mass index, sedentary behavior remains significantly associated with both depression and NLR levels. Additionally, our analysis reveals a non-linear relationship between NLR levels and depression, suggesting a complex interaction. Importantly, NLR partially mediates a modest yet statistically significant portion (1.920 %, p = 0.014) of the association between sedentary behavior and depression.

Conclusion

This study highlights the intricate interplay among sedentary behavior, inflammation, and depression, providing insights into potential avenues for intervention and management.

探索久坐行为、中性粒细胞与淋巴细胞比率和抑郁症：NHANES 的中介分析

背景久坐和抑郁与炎症有关。结果我们的研究结果表明，抑郁症患者和/或有久坐行为的人的 NLR 水平升高。即使在调整了年龄、性别和体重指数等混杂变量后，久坐行为仍与抑郁和 NLR 水平显著相关。此外，我们的分析还揭示了 NLR 水平与抑郁之间的非线性关系，表明两者之间存在复杂的相互作用。重要的是，NLR 在久坐行为与抑郁之间的关系中起到了一定的中介作用（1.920 %，p = 0.014），但在统计学上具有显著意义。

期刊介绍： Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology & Biological Psychiatry is an international and multidisciplinary journal which aims to ensure the rapid publication of authoritative reviews and research papers dealing with experimental and clinical aspects of neuro-psychopharmacology and biological psychiatry. Issues of the journal are regularly devoted wholly in or in part to a topical subject. Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology & Biological Psychiatry does not publish work on the actions of biological extracts unless the pharmacological active molecular substrate and/or specific receptor binding properties of the extract compounds are elucidated.
