. The mental health of healthcare professionals, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, is a critical concern. This study investigates the prevalence of burnout and professional fulfillment, depression and the relationship between physical activity and adherence to the Mediterranean diet with depression, burnout and professional fulfillment among healthcare professionals. . Data were collected through a web-based survey of 567 healthcare professionals. Logistic regression analysis with age and sex adjustment was employed to analyze the results. . The prevalence of depression was 44%, burnout stood at 66% and professional fulfillment was reported at 28%. Adherence to the Mediterranean diet was linked to a reduced risk of depression (odds ratio [] 0.63, 95% confidence interval [CI] [0.41, 0.96], = 0.033) and physical activity was also associated with a lower risk of depression ( 0.49, 95% CI [0.32, 0.75], = 0.001). Furthermore, adherence to the Mediterranean diet was associated with a reduced risk of burnout ( 0.49, 95% CI [0.25, 0.98], = 0.045). . This study highlights the positive impact of physical activity and the Mediterranean diet as lifestyle factors on depression and burnout. These findings have implications for screening, follow-up and timely interventions to support the mental well-being of healthcare professionals.
医护人员的心理健康，尤其是在新冠疫情期间，是一个至关重要的问题。本研究调查了医护人员职业倦怠和职业成就感的患病率、抑郁情况，以及身体活动和坚持地中海饮食与抑郁、职业倦怠和职业成就感之间的关系。通过对567名医护人员进行基于网络的调查收集数据。采用年龄和性别调整的逻辑回归分析来分析结果。抑郁患病率为44%，职业倦怠率为66%，职业成就感报告率为28%。坚持地中海饮食与抑郁风险降低相关（优势比[ ]0.63，95%置信区间[CI][0.41, 0.96]， = 0.033），身体活动也与较低的抑郁风险相关（ 0.49，95% CI[0.32, 0.75]， = 0.001）。此外，坚持地中海饮食与职业倦怠风险降低相关（ 0.49，95% CI[0.25, 0.98]， = 0.045）。本研究强调了身体活动和地中海饮食作为生活方式因素对抑郁和职业倦怠的积极影响。这些发现对筛查、随访和及时干预以支持医护人员的心理健康具有启示意义。
