“…Dagegen haben Murphy, Laird, Monson, Sobol, und Leighton (2000) eine relativ stabile Prävalenz klinischer Depression bei 18-Jährigen und Älteren im Zeitraum von 1952 bis 1992 beobachtet. In anderen Nationen, etwa China und Belgien, wurde ein Anstieg depressiver Symptome über die Kohorten allgemein (Brault, Meuleman, & Bracke 2012), oder zumindest bei älteren Erwachsenen (Shao, Li, Zhang, Zhang, Zhang, & Qi 2013), festgestellt. Was Kohortenunterschiede in Alternsverläufen depressiver Symptome betrifft, berichten einige Studien günstigere Alternsverläufe über nachfolgende Kohorten hinweg (Kasen, Cohen, Chen, & Castille 2003), während andere Studien weniger günstige Alternsverläufe bei nachfolgenden Kohorten beobachtet haben (Yang 2007).…”

“…Jedoch untersuchten die Autoren nicht den Alternsverlauf depressiver Symptome in diesen beiden Stichproben. Einen stärkeren Anstieg depressiver Symptome bei Frauen als bei Männern über verschiedene, 24 Jahre auseinander liegende Stichproben chinesischer Erwachsener hinweg berichten zudem Shao et al (2013), jedoch beobachteten auch sie diese Stichproben nicht längsschnittlich und können daher keine Aussage über Geschlechterunterschiede in Alternsverläufen treffen. Kasen et al (2003) verglichen den Alternsverlauf depressiver Symptome -allerdings nur bei Frauen, und nur über das mittlere Erwachsenenalter -für zwei Kohorten, Babyboomer und Preboomer, und fanden einen Rückgang der depressiven Symptome im Alternsverlauf bei der Babyboomer-Kohorte, jedoch einen Anstieg in der Preboomer-Kohorte.…”

Die Lebenszufriedenheit nimmt im höheren Alter etwas ab, und das Depressionsrisiko steigt an. Diese Veränderungen fallen bei Frauen deutlicher aus als bei Männern: Um das 60. Lebensjahr sind Frauen im Durchschnitt zunächst zufriedener mit ihrem Leben als Männer; mit zunehmendem Alter setzt jedoch ein Rückgang in der Lebenszufriedenheit ein, der bei Frauen stärker ausfällt als bei Männern. Klinisch auffällige depressive Symptome kommen bei Frauen allgemein häufiger vor als bei Männern, und zudem steigt die Wahrscheinlichkeit für diese Symptome mit zunehmendem Alter bei Frauen stärker an als bei Männern.

“…The prevalence of depressive symptoms can vary depending on several biological, sociodemographic or lifestyle factors. For example, the prevalence of depressive symptoms is reportedly higher in women, 5 older adults 6 and people of a low socioeconomic status. 7 On the other hand, the fact that a person with depressive symptoms can access treatment also depends on the accessibility to health services.…”

ObjectivesThis study aimed to estimate the trends in the prevalence and treatment of depressive symptoms using nationally representative surveys in Peru from 2014 to 2018.DesignA secondary analysis was conducted using five nationally representative surveys carried out consecutively in the years between 2014 and 2018.SettingThe study was conducted in Peru.ParticipantsIndividuals, men and women, aged ≥15 years who participated in the selected surveys. Sampling was probabilistic using a two-stage approach.Main outcome measuresTwo versions of the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) that focused on the presence of depressive symptoms were administered (one in the last 2 weeks and other in the last year). Scores ≥15 were used as the cut-off point in both versions of the PHQ-9 to define the presence of depressive symptoms. Also, the treatment rate was based on the proportion of individuals who had experienced depressive symptoms in the last year and who had self-reported having received specific treatment for these symptoms. The age-standardised prevalence was estimated.ResultsA total of 161 061 participants were included. There was no evidence of a change in age-standardised prevalence rates of depressive symptoms at the 2 weeks prior to the point of data collection (2.6% in 2014 to 2.3% in 2018), or in the last year (6.3% in 2014 to 6.2% in 2018). Furthermore, no change was found in the proportion of depressive cases treated in the last year (14.6% in 2014 to 14.4% in 2018). Rural areas and individuals with low-level of wealth had lower proportion of depressive cases treated.ConclusionsNo changes in trends of rates of depressive symptoms or in the proportion of depressive cases treated were observed. This suggests the need to reduce the treatment gap considering social determinants associated with inequality in access to adequate therapy.

“…Several studies have reported the potential association between economic development, societal changes and increasing prevalence of non-communicable diseases and common mental disorders, which are considered as important risk factors of cognitive decline and dementia in later life (Boutayeb and Boutayeb, 2005 ; Hendrie et al ., 2006 ; Fu et al ., 2013 ; Shao et al ., 2013 ). However, the chaos in mainland China from 1950s to 1970s is considered to have had substantial impacts including disorganisation of the education system, lowered living conditions and the decreased life expectancy.…”

ObjectiveThere have been dramatic societal changes in East Asia over the last hundred years. Several of the established risk factors could have important period and cohort effects. This study explores temporal variation of dementia prevalence in mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan taking study methods into account.MethodsSeventy prevalence studies of dementia in mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan were identified from 1980 to 2012. Five period groups (before 1990, 1990 ∼ 1994, 1995 ∼ 1999, 2000 ∼ 2004 and 2005 ∼ 2012) and five birth cohort groups (1895 ∼ 1909, 1910 ∼ 1919, 1920 ∼ 1929, 1930 ∼ 1939 and 1940 ∼ 1950) were categorised using the year of investigation and 5-year age groups. Pooled prevalence by age, period and birth cohort groups was estimated through meta-regression model and meta-analysis taking diagnostic criteria and age structure into account.ResultsAfter adjusting for diagnostic criteria, the study age range and age structure, the prevalence of dementia in the older population aged 60 years and over fluctuated across periods but not reaching significance and were estimated as 1.8%, 2.5%, 2.1%, 2.4% and 3.1% for the five periods from pre-1990 to 2005 ∼ 2012. A potential increasing pattern from less to more recent birth cohort groups was found in the major studies using older diagnostic criteria with wider differences in the age groups over 70 years.ConclusionsThis study found no significant variation across periods but suggested a potential cohort effect. The influence of societal changes might moderate early life experiences across different generations with substantial impact on mental health in older age. © 2014 The Authors.
