The impact of anxiety and depression on outpatients with asthma
Open accessAbstract
Background Anxiety and depression may frequently affect patients with asthma. However, the findings of several studies are partially conflicting and conducted in selected cohorts. Objective To investigate the effect of anxiety and depression in a group of outpatients with asthma. Methods This cross-sectional, real-life study included 263 patients (109 males; mean age, 39.2 years) with asthma. Clinical examination, lung function, fractional exhaled nitric oxide measurement, Asthma Control Test (ACT) score, asthma control grade, perception of symptoms by visual analog scale, and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) questionnaires were evaluated. Results Globally, 97 patients (36.9%) had anxiety, and 29 (11%) had depression. Of these patients, 71 had combined anxiety and depression. Anxiety and depression were associated with poor asthma control (P =.007 and .02, respectively). Patients with depression had higher body mass indexes (P =.002). Anxiety and depression were associated with lower ACT scores (P < .001 for both). The scores on the anxiety and depression subscales of HADS were moderately related (r = 0.57). Conclusions The present real-life study indicates that anxiety and depression are common and relevant comorbidities in asthmatic outpatients and are associated with uncontrolled asthma and lower ACT scores. Thus, assessment of comorbid mental disorders should be performed in common practice.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
