“…7 Several potential mechanisms connect CHD and depression. These include genetic variants, 8 endothelial dysfunction, 9 inflammation response, 10 the imbalance of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves, 11 dysregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, 12 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) system dysfunction 13 and thrombocyte aggregation abnormalities. 14 Elevated proinflammatory factors…”

ObjectivesThis meta-analysis aimed to explore the association between inflammatory factors, heart rate variability (HRV) and the coexistence of coronary heart disease (CHD) and depression.DesignSystematic review and meta-analysis. Complying with the Meta-analysis Of Observational Studies in Epidemiology statement.Data sourcesWe searched PubMed, Web of Science and EMBASE for the data from the inception date to 16 March 2023.Eligibility criteriaWe included cross-sectional and cohort studies with inclusion criteria: (1) patients with CHD; (2) depression measurement and (3) including inflammatory factors or cardiac biomarkers or HRV.Data extraction and synthesisTwo authors searched the databases independently. The effect estimates and heterogeneity were synthesised by Review Manager V.5.3. Sensitivity analysis and publication bias were analysed by STATA software. The quantitative synthesis outcomes were presented by mean difference (MD) or standard MD (SMD) with 95% CI.ResultsBy searching the databases, we identified a total of 6750 articles. There were 22 articles left after selection, including 6344 participants. This meta-analysis indicated that patients with CHD with depression had higher levels of C reaction protein (CRP) (SMD 0.50, 95% CI (0.19 to 0.81), p=0.001), high-sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP) (SMD 0.28, 95% CI (0.07 to 0.48), p=0.008), IL-6 (SMD 0.49, 95% CI (0.05 to 0.92), p=0.03) and a lower level of the mean RR interval and the SD of all RR intervals (SMD −0.64, 95% CI (−1.11 to –0.17), p=0.008), SD of the 5 min averages of all normal RR intervals (MD −12.77 ms, 95% CI (–21.20 to –4.33), p=0.003), overage of the SD of all normal RR intervals for each 5 min segment (MD −13.83 ms, 95% CI (–15.94 to –11.72), p<0.00001), root mean square of successive differences (MD: −8.02 ms, 95% CI (–13.62 to –2.43), p=0.005), proportion of adjacent cycles differing by >50 ms (pNN50) (SMD −0.86, 95% CI (−1.41 to –0.31), p=0.002), than those without depression.ConclusionsThis study underscores the association between elevated CRP, hs-CRP, IL-6 and lower HRV in patients with CHD with depression. It emphasises the importance of clinicians assessing CRP, hs-CRP, IL-6 and HRV in patients with CHD to potentially identify depressive conditions.

“…Despite the facts regarding mentioned side effects, there are some evidences showing that antidepressants can be beneficial for the cardiovascular system in some manners. SSRIs are manifested to improve endothelial function, vascular inflammation, arterial stiffening and perhaps delaying atherosclerotic events 17 , 18 . Moreover, antidepressant therapy was associated with lower odds of recurrent Myocardial Infarction (MI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome and concomitant depression 19 .…”
