“…Fifth, the study's sample comprised of men so gender differences were not analysed. Last, other related problems, such as current smoking, hypochondriasis, and suicidal ideation, which are the risk factors of HD, presented by Park et al [23], were not part of this study.…”

The present study was conducted to identify clinical correlates of hazardous drinking (HD). The data were derived from the Korean Research for Development of Alcohol Addiction Diagnosis and Assessment System. Variable measurement were personal characteristics, lifetime alcohol use history, Motivational Structure Questionnaire for alcoholics, Alcohol Outcome Expectancies Scale, and Alcohol Dependence Scale. Behavioural, psychiatric, and psychological factors were evaluated by responses to the Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale, Jung Self Rating Depression Scale, Barratt Impulsiveness Scale-11, State Traits Anxiety Inventory, and State Trait Anger Expression Inventory. The valid sample comprised 295 male drinkers, 89 subjects (30.2%) were classified as HD, and 209 (69.8%) were in the non-HD (NHD) group by NIAAA criteria. The results of binary logistic analysis showed that age at the first blackout, coping, and social motives for alcohol use, and non-planning impulsiveness increased the likelihood of HD net of each other's effects, and the final model explained 29.6% (Negelkerke R 2 ) of the variation in HD.

“…Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a highly prevalent condition with staggering economic costs and a strong likelihood of recurrence and chronicity ( 1 - 4 ). In the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th edition (DSM-IV) ( 5 ), MDD is defined by the presence of necessary features (depressive mood or marked diminished pleasure) and 5 or more symptoms among 9 characteristic features, namely depressive mood, anhedonia, change in appetite or weight, sleep problems, psychomotor problems, fatigue or loss of energy, excessive self-reproach or guilt, impaired decision-making and thoughts of death.…”

Our study aimed to establish the relationship between the number of depressive symptoms and the clinical characteristics of major depressive disorder (MDD). This would enable us to predict the clinical significance of the number of depressive symptoms in MDD patients. Using data from the Clinical Research Center for Depression (CRESCEND) study in Korea, 853 patients with DSM-IV MDD were recruited. The baseline and clinical characteristics of groups with different numbers of depressive symptoms were compared using the χ2 test for discrete variables and covariance (ANCOVA) for continuous variables. In addition, the scores of these groups on the measurement tools were compared by ANCOVA after adjusting the potential effects of confounding variables. After adjusting the effects of monthly income and history of depression, a larger number of depressive symptoms indicated higher overall severity of depression (F [4, 756] = 21.458, P < 0.001) and higher levels of depressive symptoms (F [4, 767] = 19.145, P < 0.001), anxiety symptoms (F [4, 765] = 12.890, P < 0.001) and suicidal ideation (F [4, 653] = 6.970, P < 0.001). It also indicated lower levels of social function (F [4, 760] = 13.343, P < 0.001), and quality of life (F [4, 656] = 11.975, P < 0.001). However, there were no significant differences in alcohol consumption (F [4, 656] = 11.975, P < 0.001). The number of depressive symptoms can be used as an index of greater illness burden in clinical psychiatry.

“…Depression has become one of the most significant issues in public mental health worldwide because of its great level of social and economic burden ( 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ). Comorbid depression has been linked to poor medical outcomes and high mortality rates in patients with physical disease.…”

Our study aimed to examine the knowledge and attitude of nursing personnel toward depression in general hospitals of Korea. A total of 851 nursing personnel enrolled at four university-affiliated general hospitals completed self-report questionnaires. Chi-square tests were used to compare the knowledge and attitude of registered or assistant nurses toward depression. In addition, binary logistic regression analysis was used to adjust for the following confounders: age-group and workplace. Registered and assistant nurses differed in their knowledge and attitude toward depression. The proportion of rational and/or correct responses were higher in registered nurses than assistant nurses for the following: constellation of depressive symptoms defined by DSM-IV (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 3.876; P<0.001); suicide risk in depression recovery (aOR, 3.223; P=0.001) and psychological stress as a cause of depression (aOR, 4.370; P<0.001); the relationship between chronic physical disease and depression (aOR, 8.984; P<0.001); and other items. Our results suggest that in terms of the biological model of depression, the understanding of registered nurses is greater than that of assistant nurses. Moreover, specific psychiatric education programs for nursing personnel need to be developed in Korea. Our findings can contribute to the development of a general hospital-based model for early detection of depression in patients with chronic medical diseases.Graphical Abstract
