Introduction
A figurative interdependence between the heart and sadness has long existed in language and in literature.
In 1628, English physician William Harvey noted “every affection of the mind that is attended either with pain or pleasure, hope or fear, is the cause of an agitation whose influence extends to the heart”
1970s-epidemiologists start to associate/correlate heart disease and depression.

Prevalence of depression in clinical practice
![Page 9: Depression and CV diseases: cardiologist perspectives](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b640b34a7959bc248b480d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Epidemiology • Major depression strikes 10-15% of
adults, affecting all racial, ethnic, age, and socioeconomic groups. It's twice as common in women as in men and is especially prevalent among adolescents.
• Depression is associating 20-30% of patients with cardiac disease
• Recently new risk factors for CAD have been identified, among them emotional distress and depression. With 1.5-2 fold increase in CAD
![Page 10: Depression and CV diseases: cardiologist perspectives](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b640b34a7959bc248b480d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Depression & CADRelative risk for myocardial infarction in patients with depressive symptoms versus non-depressive patients ranged from 1.5 to 4.5The prevalence of depression was about 17% in patients with stable CAD and about 25% in patient with acute MI while minor depressive symptoms ranged from 27 to 65 %Depressed patients with stable coronary disease are much more likely to perceive greater coronary symptom burden and physical limitation compared to non-depressed coronary patients

Depression & CADDepressed patients with ACS was shown to have poor quality of life and functional disability than non depressed patient
In patients with CABG, it has been shown that depression diagnosed before surgery was related to higher hospital re-admission rates and was an independent risk factor for cardiac events after surgery
![Page 12: Depression and CV diseases: cardiologist perspectives](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b640b34a7959bc248b480d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Depression & CADDepression is now a recognized independent risk factor of CAD.Patients with MDD and type 2 DM have 30% increased risk of AMI but patients with both disorders have 82% risk ( Scherrer et al diabetic care 2011)
Post-MI patients with a depressive disorder or self-reported depressive symptoms carry a 2.0- to 2.5 fold increased relative risk of new CV events and cardiac mortality*However, why depression is a risk factor for poor prognosis is unclear

Mechanisms of CAD in depression
• Hypothalamic-adrenocortical and sympatho-adrenal effects• Cortisol.• Blood glucose.• Cholesterol.• Free fatty acids.• Insulin.
• Hematological effects• Plasma fibrinogen.• Platelets aggregation.• Platelet factor 4.• B-Thromboglobulin.
![Page 17: Depression and CV diseases: cardiologist perspectives](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b640b34a7959bc248b480d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Cardiac autonomic dysregulation• Arrhythmias ( sinus tachycardia to SCD)• Decreased heart rate variability.• Increased Q-T dispersion
• Cardiac and vascular effects• Carotid-intima media thickness.• Endothelial dysfunction.• Left ventricular mass.

• Inflammatory markers• Increased CRP• Other markers ( IL6, TNF, adhesion molecules) show controversial data
• Increased Abs to certain viruses e.g. Epstein Barr, CMV& HS
• Behavioral mechanisms:• Delay in seeking medical treatment• Failure of risk factors modifications:
• Smoking cessation• Control of DM
• Poor adherence to medications
Mechanisms of CAD in depression

• Genetic factors• Depression and CHD may be different phenotypic
expressions of the same genetic substrates• Depression may be genetically related to other CAD
risk factors• Depression and vascular disease may share certain
vulnerability genes

Depression in CAD• Most are never diagnosed• Even when diagnosed, the
treatment options are unclear• No evidence-based clinical
guidelines available

Depression Treatment in CAD• Enhancing Recovery In Coronary Heart
Disease (ENRICHD) trial is RC clinical trial evaluated 2481 patients with evidence of depression after myocardial infarction who either underwent treatment for depression (cognitive behavioural therapy) or usual care.
• Despite the treatment group's improvements in depression and social support, there was no significant difference in event-free survival (mortality and recurrent infarction) after an average follow-up of 29 months, between usual care (75.9%) and psychosocial intervention (75.8%).
![Page 27: Depression and CV diseases: cardiologist perspectives](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b640b34a7959bc248b480d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Depression Treatment in CAD• Tricyclic antidepressant TCA are
contraindicated in cardiac patients due to:1. Postural hypotension
2. Arrhythmogenic effects
3. Drug interactions
• Monamine oxidase inhibitors MAOI1. Drug and food interactions
2. Second line treatment in cardiac patient
• Serotonine receptor reuptake inhibitors SSRI:
1. More safer and effective
2. Drug interaction with B-Blockers, digitalis, warfaren,
![Page 28: Depression and CV diseases: cardiologist perspectives](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b640b34a7959bc248b480d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• Sertraline was found to be safe and effective in treatment of depression after AMI in SADHRT trial
• Also, citalopram proved to be safe and effective even than behavioral Treatment in CREAT study
• Paroxetine was found to be safe in cardiac patient in 2 small trials
Depression Treatment in CAD
![Page 29: Depression and CV diseases: cardiologist perspectives](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b640b34a7959bc248b480d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
It is reasonable to consider screening SIHD patients for depression and to refer or treat when indicated.
Treatment of depression has not been shown to improve cardiovascular disease outcomes but might be reasonable for its other clinical benefits.

Myocardial Infarction and Depression intervention Trial MIND-IT
• The authors report that the severity of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction is significantly related to the severity of depressive symptoms during the hospitalization.
• LV dysfunction was strongly associated with BDI scores
• Use of B-Blockers was not associated with increase in depressive symptoms
• The effect of different depression treatment on CV mortality is not published yetVan Melle et. al. Eur. Heart J. 2005 and JACC

Depression & HF
Major depression was present in 21.5% of patients with HF
Prevalence of depression increases with the increased severity of heart failure
There was a strong correlation between the presence of depression and the poor prognosis in patient with HF
Treatment of depression though did not affect the prognosis, it improves compliance to therapy and quality of life in HF patients

Unresolved Issues? • CAD and depression which problem lead to
the other• Treatment of depression in patient with CAD
have any implication on the prognosis of cardiovascular affection
• The best line of treatment of depression in CAD patient whether behavioral therapy or drugs or combination of both

Take home messages Depression is common disorder that affect 10-15% of the general population and associated with 20-30% of cardiac patients
This association was more in CAD, HF, HTN & arrhythmias
The mechanism of this association is multifactorial, involving endocrinal, autonomic, inflammatory, hematological & genetic factors
Although, this association increased morbidity and mortality of cardiac disease the implication of treatment of depression on cardiovascular mortality is not clear
![Page 39: Depression and CV diseases: cardiologist perspectives](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062616/54b640b34a7959bc248b480d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Take home messages Routine screening of cardiac patient especially CAD for depression is very useful for management of both comorbidities
Patients with cardiac disease who are under treatment for depression should be carefully monitored for adherence to their medical care, drug efficacy, and safety with respect to their cardiovascular as well as mental health.
Coordination of care between healthcare providers is essential in patients with combined medical and mental health diagnoses.
