| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Signs of depression often go undetected in primary care settings. Furthermore, careful investigation of factors associated with depression among primary care patients is rare. Therefore, this study was conducted to explore factors associated with depression in primary care patients of working age (35-64 years). Depression was evaluated using the Zung Self-Rating Depression and Psychiatric Outpatient Mood Scales. Multiple logistic regression was used to calculate adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for the associations between selected factors and depression, independent of confounding factors. Among 598 subjects, 153 (25.6%) were assessed as having depression. The odds ratios for sleep disorders indicated a significant association with depression. However, few patients consult their physician about sleep problems. Inquiring about sleep status may therefore help to diagnose depression in primary care.
