Menopause. 2013 Nov;20(11):1154-63. doi: 10.1097/GME.0000000000000098.
This study aims to identify reproductive factors associated with severe depressive symptoms (SDS) in postmenopausal women and to determine whether a past psychological disorder (PPD) and the timing of first-onset PPD in relation to menopause modify associations.
Lifetime reproductive characteristics and PPD were obtained from 51,088 postmenopausal women of the E3N cohort study. The Center for Epidemiologic Studies--Depression Scale (CES-D) was used to assess SDS. Multivariate logistic regression models were performed to estimate the risk of SDS overall and according to the presence and timing of first-onset PPD (before the final menstrual period, in early postmenopause, or in late postmenopause).
Women with irregular cycles were at increased risk for SDS (odds ratio [OR], 1.35; 95% CI, 1.19-1.53), except when PPD occurred in early postmenopause (OR, 1.08; 95% CI, 0.74-1.57). Parity was inversely associated with the risk of SDS (P < 0.001), whereas decreasing age at first full-term pregnancy increased the risk of SDS with PPD (P < 0.001) and increasing age at last full-term pregnancy increased the risk of SDS without PPD (P = 0.012). Age at final menstrual period (per 2-y increment) was associated with a decreased risk of SDS with postmenopausal (especially late postmenopausal) PPD (OR, 0.82; 95% CI, 0.80-0.85) but with an increased risk of SDS when PPD occurred before the final menstrual period (OR, 1.15; 95% CI, 1.12-1.19). Artificial menopause increased the risk of SDS with PPD before the final menstrual period (OR, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.18-1.66), whereas menopausal symptoms were associated with SDS across all categories.
Associations between endogenous reproductive factors and SDS may vary according to the presence of PPD and the timing of first-onset PPD. Further studies are warranted.
本研究旨在确定与绝经后妇女重度抑郁症状(SDS)相关的生殖因素,并确定既往心理障碍(PPD)以及 PPD 首次发作与绝经的时间关系是否会改变这些关联。
从 E3N 队列研究的 51088 名绝经后妇女中获得了终生生殖特征和 PPD 数据。采用流行病学研究中心抑郁量表(CES-D)评估 SDS。采用多变量逻辑回归模型来估计 SDS 的总体风险以及是否存在和首次 PPD 发作时间(绝经前、绝经早期或绝经晚期)的风险。
除了 PPD 发生在绝经早期时(OR,1.08;95%CI,0.74-1.57),月经周期不规律的女性 SDS 风险增加(OR,1.35;95%CI,1.19-1.53)。生育次数与 SDS 风险呈负相关(P < 0.001),而首次足月妊娠年龄越小,伴有 PPD 的 SDS 风险增加(P < 0.001),末次足月妊娠年龄越大,不伴有 PPD 的 SDS 风险增加(P = 0.012)。末次月经年龄(每增加 2 年)与绝经后(尤其是绝经晚期)伴有 PPD 的 SDS 风险降低相关(OR,0.82;95%CI,0.80-0.85),但与绝经前发生 PPD 的 SDS 风险增加相关(OR,1.15;95%CI,1.12-1.19)。人工绝经增加了绝经前伴有 PPD 的 SDS 风险(OR,1.40;95%CI,1.18-1.66),而绝经症状与所有类别中的 SDS 相关。
内源性生殖因素与 SDS 之间的关联可能因 PPD 的存在和 PPD 首次发作的时间而有所不同。需要进一步研究。
