All subjects with PiZZ/PiZnull (<i>n</i> = 635) and PiSZ (<i>n</i> = 111) genotypes within the AATD registry who had sufficient data to calculate pulmonary physiological and health status (HS) decline were grouped as those with or without a diagnosis of depression and/or anxiety.

Depression and/or anxiety was present in 16.4% overall in both PiSZ and PiZZ/PiZnull cohorts and was associated with lower baseline pulmonary function and worse HS. In the multivariable analysis of the PiZZ/PiZnull cohort, a greater average decline in FEV<sub>1</sub>% predicted was observed in those with depression and/or anxiety than those without (-1.53 SD ± 2.26 per year, -0.99 ± 1.79, respectively; <i>p</i> = 0.03) but there was no difference in HS decline (<i>p</i> = 0.33).

Disease severity and progression may be contributing to the prevalence of psychological factors in PiZZ/PiZnull patients.
