Abstract

Background: Depression may be a contributing factor to cholelithiasis. However, the exact correlation between cholelithiasis and depression severity remains unclear.

Methods: First, a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was performed to validate previous research findings, utilizing separate datasets for major depressive disorder (MDD) and cholelithiasis. The MDD dataset (135,458 cases, 344,901 controls) came from a published GWAS, and cholelithiasis data (19,023 cases, 195,144 controls) were sourced from FinnGen. The primary analytical approach for the MR study was the inverse variance weighting (IVW) method. Second, an observational study based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) was conducted to explore the relationship between the severity of depression and cholelithiasis. 7071 participants were included in the observational study in total. Depression severity (no, mild, moderate, severe) was measured by Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). Weighted multivariable-adjusted logistic regression was employed to assess the association between depression severity and cholelithiasis.

Results: In the MR study, the IVW analysis revealed that MDD may increase the risk of cholelithiasis (OR 1.25, 95% CI 1.07-1.45, P = 0.004). The observational study showed that moderate (OR 1.06, 95% CI 1.00-1.11, p = 0.037) and severe (OR 1.07, 95% CI 1.00-1.15, p = 0.044) depression rises the incidence of cholelithiasis. However, no significant association was found between mild depression and cholelithiasis (p = 0.275).

Conclusions: Moderate and severe depression might rise the incidence of cholelithiasis, while mild depression may not. Further validation through prospective studies is necessary.

期刊介绍： Social Psychiatry and Psychiatric Epidemiology is intended to provide a medium for the prompt publication of scientific contributions concerned with all aspects of the epidemiology of psychiatric disorders - social, biological and genetic. In addition, the journal has a particular focus on the effects of social conditions upon behaviour and the relationship between psychiatric disorders and the social environment. Contributions may be of a clinical nature provided they relate to social issues, or they may deal with specialised investigations in the fields of social psychology, sociology, anthropology, epidemiology, health service research, health economies or public mental health. We will publish papers on cross-cultural and trans-cultural themes. We do not publish case studies or small case series. While we will publish studies of reliability and validity of new instruments of interest to our readership, we will not publish articles reporting on the performance of established instruments in translation. Both original work and review articles may be submitted.
