“…The presence of depressive symptoms was a negative influencing factor for subjective well-being. Depressive symptoms had been proved to be associated with functional limitation ( Hairi et al., 2011 ), mortality ( Correa et al., 2021 ), and cardiovascular disease ( Haigh et al., 2020 ). In addition, because of generating more negative emotions and relating to avoidant coping ( Thimm et al., 2018 ), depressive symptoms exert a negative impact on subjective well-being.…”

Background The impact of perceived life stress on subjective well-being has been well-established; while few studies have explored the mediating and moderating mechanisms of the association between perceived life stress and subjective well-being among perimenopausal women. This study is aimed at exploring the mediating effect of depressive symptoms and the role of interests/hobbies as a moderator in the association between perceived life stress and subjective well-being among perimenopausal women. Methods The participants were 1,104 perimenopausal women at the age of 40 to 60, who were asked to complete a paper-based questionnaire. A single item was used to measure self-perceived life stress and interests/hobbies. The Zung Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Subjective Well-being Scale for Chinese Citizens (SWBS-CC) were applied to assess both depressive symptoms and subjective well-being. Multiple linear regression analysis and the PROCESS macro were adopted to analyse not only the mediating effect of depressive symptoms but also the moderating role of interests/hobbies. Results Perceived life stress was negatively associated with subjective well-being (B = − 1.424, β = − 0.101, P < 0.001). The impact of perceived life stress on subjective well-being was partially mediated by depressive symptoms (mediation effect = −0.760, 95% confidence intervals (CI) [−1.129, −0.415]). In addition, the interaction term between depressive symptoms and interests/hobbies was significantly related to subjective well-being (β = − 0.060, P < 0.05), indicating moderating effect. Moderated mediation had a significant index (Index = −0.220, SE = 0.099, 95% CI [−0.460, −0.060]). Conclusions Perceived life stress was negatively related to subjective well-being. The impact of perceived life stress on subjective well-being was mediated by depressive symptoms. Besides, interests/hobbies moderated the indirect effect of depressive symptoms on the relationship between perceived life stress and subjective well-being.

“…Previous studies have demonstrated that basic demographic characteristics, including sex, age, marital status, educational level, and residence, are associated with depressive symptoms in older Chinese populations [ 7 , 19 ]. Moreover, physical health status, especially chronic diseases, is closely related to depressive symptoms in older adults [ 20 – 22 ]. Accordingly, we collected demographic information and the number of chronic diseases suffered by the participants to investigate how these variables influenced the latent growth trajectories of depressive symptoms over time in the older Chinese population.…”

Background Given the rapidly rising proportion of the older population in China and the relatively high prevalence of depressive symptoms among this population, this study aimed to identify the trajectories of depressive symptoms and the factors associated with the trajectory class to gain a better understanding of the long-term course of depressive symptoms in this population. Methods Data were obtained from four wave’s survey of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). A total of 3646 participants who aged 60 years or older during baseline survey, and completed all follow-ups were retained in this study. Depressive symptoms were measured using the 10-item version of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D-10). Growth mixture modelling (GMM) was adopted to identify the trajectory classes of depressive symptoms, and both linear and quadratic functions were considered. A multivariate logistic regression model was used to calculate the adjusted odds ratios (ORs) of the associated factors to predict the trajectory class of participants. Results A four-class quadratic function model was the best-fitting model for the trajectories of depressive symptoms in the older Chinese population. The four trajectories were labelled as increasing (16.70%), decreasing (12.31%), high and stable (7.30%), and low and stable (63.69%), according to their trends. Except for the low and stable trajectory, the other trajectories were almost above the threshold for depressive symptoms. The multivariate logistic regression model suggested that the trajectories of chronic depressive symptoms could be predicted by being female, living in a village (rural area), having a lower educational level, and having chronic diseases. Conclusions This study identified four depressive symptom trajectories in the older Chinese population and analysed the factors associated with the trajectory class. These findings can provide references for prevention and intervention to reduce the chronic course of depressive symptoms in the older Chinese population.

“…Depression is associated with a greater risk of cardiovascular mortality in older adults (18,19). There is also an increased risk of coronary heart disease in depressive disorders (20)(21)(22). Even mild depression has a higher risk of CVD, which is greater amongst those with chronic or recurrent depression (20).…”

Cardiovascular disease and SMIPhysical ill health is the most significant factor in the widening mortality gap between SMI and the general population (1). Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality worldwide (8), and the major cause of death in SMI (9), and CVD increases with age (10). The relationship is bidirectional, and those with CVD are also at higher risk of adverse mental health (9). Much of this risk is modifiable through better provision and access to physical healthcare (11). A large meta-analysis of observational studies found higher rates of all CVD sub-types amongst those with SMI, but contemporary data in the UK is lacking (12), the last studies being conducted over a decade ago (13, 14). The average age of participants with SMI was ∼50 years in these studies (12-14), and few studies specifically investigate older populations.
