We aimed to determine the relationship between use of analgesics prescribed for pain management and onset progression mood disorders using a large-scale cohort database. calculated hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) patient risk developing based on age, income, health-related variables, disease history, Charlson comorbidity index, prescription behavior (Models 1–3). Additionally, we determined disorder occurrence by age group (Model 4) proportional hazards regression model. The age- income-adjusted HR 1) was 1.8275. age-, income-, BMI-, physical-activity-adjusted 2) 1.882. fully adjusted 3) 1.698. Compared no analgesic use, nonregular (HR = 1.386) regular 1.698) associated higher disorders. Among patients older than 50 years, those who participated in physical activity (less five days) had lower did not. This suggests that it may be useful preventing cancer survivors. A high comorbidities are factors Therefore, our results suggest survivors history should undergo careful psychiatric consultation.

They were categorized based body mass index components into four phenotypes: non-healthy obese (MNHO), healthy (MHO), non-obese (MHNO), (MNHNO). The relative ratio (RRR) phenotypes, severity depressive symptoms, 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) evaluated by univariate multinomial logistic regression. Results Of 1344 eligible participants, 268 (19.94%) had depression. Moderate, moderate-severe, severe observed 179 (13.32%), 67 (4.99%), 22 (1.64%) respectively.
