This study investigated changes in the prevalence of depression, stress, and suicidal attempts during the COVID-19 pandemic. The ≥19-year-old population in the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in 2019 and 2020 was included. The histories of depression, stress, and suicidal attempts were compared between the 2019 and 2020 cohorts using multiple logistic regression analysis with complex sampling. The prevalence of depression was not significantly different between the 2019 and 2020 groups (4.1% vs. 4.5%, p = 0.326). The prevalence of stress and suicide attempts was also not significantly different between groups (all p > 0.05). The rates of depression, stress, and suicide attempts were not associated with the 2020 group compared to the 2019 group (all p > 0.05). The 19- to 39-year-old group in the 2020 group indicated a higher rate of depression (diagnosed by physicians) than the 19- to 39-year-old group in the 2019 group (adjusted odds ratio = 1.58, 95% confidence intervals = 1.00−2.50, p = 0.049). The risks of depression, stress, and suicidal attempts were not related to the COVID-19 pandemic in Korean adults. A young adult population demonstrated an increased risk of depression associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.
本研究调查了2019冠状病毒病大流行期间抑郁症、压力和自杀未遂患病率的变化。纳入了2019年和2020年韩国国家健康与营养检查调查中≥19岁的人群。使用复杂抽样的多元逻辑回归分析比较了2019年和2020年队列中抑郁症、压力和自杀未遂的病史。2019年和2020年组之间抑郁症的患病率没有显著差异（4.1%对4.5%，p = 0.326）。组间压力和自杀未遂的患病率也没有显著差异（所有p>0.05）。与2019年组相比，2020年组的抑郁症、压力和自杀未遂发生率与2020年组无关（所有p>0.05）。2020年组中19至39岁的人群抑郁症发生率（由医生诊断）高于2019年组中19至39岁的人群（调整后的优势比 = 1.58，95%置信区间 = 1.00−2.50，p = 0.049）。韩国成年人中抑郁症、压力和自杀未遂的风险与2019冠状病毒病大流行无关。年轻成年人群体显示出与2019冠状病毒病大流行相关的抑郁症风险增加。
