“…En trabajadores japoneses se ha descrito una menor frecuencia de SD en quienes tienen AF regular, así como mejoras en la SD en participantes de un programa de AF (13) . Asimismo, estudios en adolescentes, adultos, mujeres en edad mediana y adultos mayores tienen resultados similares (6)(7)(8)(9) y se ha observado un efecto terapéutico de la AF en pacientes deprimidos (14) , el cual podría ser dosis dependiente (15) . Aunque, otros autores biológicas: la termogénesis, la basada en endorfinas y la de las monoaminas; y psicológicas: la de la distracción y la del aumento de la autoeficacia.…”

“…Ante mayores niveles de AF, existe una menor probabilidad de desarrollar sintomatología depresiva (SD) (6) en adolescentes y una disminución de SD en adultos jóvenes (7) . Una mayor AF se asocia a menor frecuencia de trastorno depresivo en mujeres en edad mediana (8) y en ancianos (9) . No obstante, aún existe controversia debido a la identificación de deficiencias en el diseño, análisis y los distintos mecanismos de mediación y causalidad expuestos en las investigaciones (7,10) .…”

RESUMENCon el objetivo de evaluar si existe asociación entre el riesgo de depresión mayor (RDM) y la actividad física (AF) controlado por variables sociodemográficas y académicas en trabajadores que cursan estudios de pregrado en una universidad privada de Lima, se desarrolló un estudio de corte transversal analítico en 1111 personas. Se utilizó el inventario de depresión mayor y el cuestionario internacional de actividad física, para medir RDM y AF, respectivamente. La prevalencia de RDM fue 4,2 %. En el modelo de regresión de múltiples variables -ajustado por edad, sexo, desempleo y horas de sueño-la AF baja se asocia con un incremento de la odds de RDM (OR 2,15; IC 95%:1,16-4,00). Se concluye que existe asociación entre la RDM y la AF en la población estudiada, la cual es independiente de factores sociodemográficos y académicos. Se sugieren mejorar estrategias de tamizaje y el desarrollo de estudios longitudinales para evaluar causalidad.Palabras clave: Depresión; Actividad motora; Universidades; Trabajadores; Perú (fuente: DECS/BIREME). ASSOCIATION BETWEEN THE RISK OF MAJOR DEPRESSION AND LOW PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IN PERUVIAN WORKERS STUDYING IN UNIVERSITIES ABSTRACTIn order to assess if an association exists between the risk of major depression (RMD) and physical activity (PA), controlling for demographic and academic variables in workers enrolled in undergraduate studies at a private university in Lima, Peru, we carried out a cross-sectional study of 1,111 people. We used the Major Depression Inventory (MDI) and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) to measure RMD and PA, respectively. RMD prevalence was 4.2%. In the multiple regression model adjusted for age, gender, unemployment and hours of sleep, low levels of PA were associated with increased odds of RDM (OR: 2.15, 95% CI: 1.16 to 4.00). We conclude that there is an association between RMD and PA in the study population, independent of demographic and academics factors. Strategies to improve screening and development of longitudinal studies to assess causality are suggested.

“…The aging process occurs through physiological and motor changes that occur in the body, with relative consistency for the onset of chronic diseases, as well as functional and cognitive decline, and the onset of depression [6][7]. This shows the repercussions not only on functionality, mobility, and autonomy but also on health-related quality of life, understood by several domains that have important implications for the evaluation of the effects of therapeutic interventions [6,[8][9].…”

Background: To characterize the demands of health and quality of life of elderly people monitored in the primary care of Rio Grande do Norte/Brazil. Methods and Findings:This is a descriptive, cross-sectional study of a quantitative approach with elderly patients monitored by the primary care. The sample was given for convenience, obtaining 120 participants. The research was conducted through an interview with theapplication of the following questionnaires: Mini Mental State Examination, Socio-demographic Data and Pain Characteristics, ShortForm-36, Mini Nutritional Assessment, the primary activities of daily living, the instrumental activities of daily living, Prism 7 and the Geriatric Depression Scale. Data analysis was performed using the SPSS statistical program, in which descriptive and association tests were used. Results:The main demands were related to functionality, followed by nutritional and geriatric depression. The quality of life presented worse results in the domain of general health status and better scores in the emotional and mental health aspects. Regarding the dimensions, the physical health obtained aworse score. Conclusion:Based on the found characterization of the health demands, it is suggested to perform other studies with the same population, enabling to plan and implementing a multidimensional intervention and improving the quality of life of the elderly people.

“…Physical activity was associated with lower odds of depression diagnosis in adults older than 60 years. 5 Aerobic exercise has been shown to be effective in geriatric depression. 6 Non-aerobic exercise interventions—eg, strength training, Tai Chi Chih—have been shown to be helpful, although evidence in elderly care homes is equivocal.…”
