Prospective associations between vitamin D and depression in middle-aged adults: findings from the UK Biobank cohort

[EN] Background. A possible role of vitamin D in the pathophysiology of depression is currently speculative, with more rigorous research needed to assess this association in large adult populations. The current study assesses prospective associations between vitamin D status and depression in middle...

SaludDepressionMiddle-agePHQ-9Vitamin D[EN] Background. A possible role of vitamin D in the pathophysiology of depression is currently speculative, with more rigorous research needed to assess this association in large adult populations. The current study assesses prospective associations between vitamin D status and depression in middle-aged adults enrolled in the UK Biobank. Methods. We assessed prospective associations between vitamin D status at the baseline assessment (2006–2010) and depression measured at the follow-up assessment (2016) in 139 128 adults registered with the UK Biobank. Results. Amongst participants with no depression at baseline (n = 127 244), logistic regression revealed that those with vitamin D insufficiency [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 1.14, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.07–1.22] and those with vitamin D deficiency (aOR = 1.24, 95% CI 1.13–1.36) were more likely to develop new-onset depression at follow-up compared with those with optimal vitamin D levels after adjustment for a wide range of relevant covariates. Similar prospective associations were reported for those with depression at baseline (n = 11 884) (insufficiency: aOR = 1.11, 95% CI 1.00–1.23; deficiency: aOR = 1.30, 95% CI 1.13–1.50). Conclusions. The prospective associations found between vitamin D status and depression suggest that both vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency might be risk factors for the development of new-onset depression in middle-aged adults. Moreover, vitamin D deficiency (and to a lesser extent insufficiency) might be a predictor of sustained depressive symptoms in those who are already depressed. Vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency is very common, meaning that these findings have significant implications for public health.SIGuy’s CharityMedical Research CouncilNational Institute for Health Research’siomedical Research Centre at South LondonMaudsley NHS Foundation TrustKing’s College LondonStanley Medical Research Institute,Maudsley CharityCambridge University PressMedicina PreventivaFacultad de Veterinaria2020info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttps://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/psychological-medicine/article/prospective-associations-between-vitamin-d-and-depression-in-middleaged-adults-findings-from-the-uk-biobank-cohort/741D760DB6639901E43FFE2E324DDB8Chttps://hdl.handle.net/10612/27722reponame:BULERIA.
