The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between near work time and depression.
Data of 1,551 workers aged 19-49 years from the sixth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were examined. The Patient Health Questionaire-9 scores were used to screen for depression. Participants who scored a total of 10 or above, which is suggestive of the presence of depression, were classified as the depression group; the rest were classified as normal. The correlation between daily near work time and depression was analyzed using multivariate logistic analysis after adjusting for other sociodemographic and health behavior-related variables.
Multivariate logistic analysis found that workers with 3 or more hours of near work were more likely to report depression compared to the reference group who had 2 or fewer hours per day of near work (adjusted odds ratio, 2.471; 95% confidence interval, 1.062-5.747).
Longer near work time was associated with depression among South Korea's workers. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce near work time to prevent depression.
本研究旨在评估近距离工作时间与抑郁症之间的关联。
对韩国第六次全国健康与营养检查调查中1551名年龄在19至49岁之间的工人的数据进行了分析。使用患者健康问卷-9得分来筛查抑郁症。总得分在10分及以上(提示存在抑郁症)的参与者被归类为抑郁症组;其余参与者被归类为正常组。在对其他社会人口统计学和健康行为相关变量进行调整后,使用多因素逻辑分析来分析每日近距离工作时间与抑郁症之间的相关性。
多因素逻辑分析发现,与每天近距离工作2小时及以下的参考组相比,近距离工作3小时及以上的工人更有可能报告患有抑郁症(调整后的优势比为2.471;95%置信区间为1.062 - 5.747)。
在韩国工人中,较长的近距离工作时间与抑郁症有关。因此,有必要减少近距离工作时间以预防抑郁症。
