Abstract

This prospective birth-cohort study aimed to determine the factors associated with new-onset paternal depression symptoms from 1 to 6 months postpartum in Japan. Paternal depression symptoms were evaluated using the Japanese version of the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS-J) at 1 to 6 months postpartum. The definition of paternal depression symptoms was EPDS-J ≥8 in this study. Multivariate regression analysis was performed to analyze the relative variables. We analyzed 902 fathers. The frequency of new-onset paternal depression symptoms was 6.5%. For paternal new-onset depression symptoms, the significantly associated factors were maternal persistent depression symptoms (adjusted odds ratio [AOR], 3.705; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.653-8.308), paternal new-onset lack of affection (AOR, 2.797; 95% CI, 1.050-7.452), and paternal new-onset anger and rejection (AOR, 2.781; 95% CI, 1.148-6.740). Persistent maternal depression symptoms from 1 to 6 months postpartum were associated with new-onset paternal depression symptoms from 1 to 6 months postpartum.

产后1至6个月父亲抑郁症状的轨迹及其相关因素：日本环境与儿童研究的辅助研究

本前瞻性出生队列研究旨在确定日本产后1至6个月新发父亲抑郁症状的相关因素。在产后1至6个月，使用日本版爱丁堡产后抑郁量表（EPDS-J）评估父亲的抑郁症状。本研究中父亲抑郁症状的定义为EPDS-J≥8。对相关变量进行多元回归分析。我们分析了902位父亲。新发父亲抑郁症状的发生率为6.5%。对于父亲新发抑郁症状，显著相关因素为母亲持续抑郁症状（调整优势比[AOR]， 3.705； 95%可信区间[CI]， 1.653-8.308）、父亲新发缺乏情感（AOR, 2.797; 95% CI, 1.050-7.452）、父亲新发愤怒和排斥（AOR, 2.781; 95% CI, 1.148-6.740）。产后1 ~ 6个月持续的母亲抑郁症状与产后1 ~ 6个月新发的父亲抑郁症状相关。

期刊介绍： The Infant Mental Health Journal (IMHJ) is the official publication of the World Association for Infant Mental Health (WAIMH) and the Michigan Association for Infant Mental Health (MI-AIMH) and is copyrighted by MI-AIMH. The Infant Mental Health Journal publishes peer-reviewed research articles, literature reviews, program descriptions/evaluations, theoretical/conceptual papers and brief reports (clinical case studies and novel pilot studies) that focus on early social and emotional development and characteristics that influence social-emotional development from relationship-based perspectives. Examples of such influences include attachment relationships, early relationship development, caregiver-infant interactions, infant and early childhood mental health services, contextual and cultural influences on infant/toddler/child and family development, including parental/caregiver psychosocial characteristics and attachment history, prenatal experiences, and biological characteristics in interaction with relational environments that promote optimal social-emotional development or place it at higher risk. Research published in IMHJ focuses on the prenatal-age 5 period and employs relationship-based perspectives in key research questions and interpretation and implications of findings.
