“…It is consistent with findings of other studies that used a variety of populations and methods. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] Most previous studies described the association in high school students. Our study expands knowledge by describing the association in younger middle school students (aged approximately 12-14 years).…”

“…Cross-sectional studies of adolescents showed that depression was related to a variety of unhealthy behaviors, such as cigarette smoking, 4 alcohol consumption, 5 and substance use. 6,7 In longitudinal studies, depressive symptoms in teenagers aged 15 to 16 years were positively related to the teenagers' smoking status 9 years later, 8 a previous diagnosis of major depressive disorder was 3 to 4 times more common in students with a history of alcohol abuse or substance use than in control subjects, 9 and depressed mood predicted first-time use of marijuana and other illicit drugs in secondary-school students. 10 Conversely, depressive symptoms were preceded by cigarette smoking in a large national sample of adolescents aged 12 to 18 years.…”

OBJECTIVES: This study investigated the association between depression and substance use in a sample of middle-school students. METHODS: The 5721 students (59%-63% Hispanic) completed self-report items on depressive symptoms, recent smoking and binge drinking, and lifetime use of marijuana, cocaine, and inhalants. RESULTS: Symptoms of depression were strongly and positively related to substance use. For every type of use, a stepwise increase was seen between the percentage of students with low symptom frequency and the percentage of students with more symptoms. A sizable number of users reported symptoms indicating major depression. Depression scores showed few clinically meaningful differences among demographic subgroups. Substance use scores, in contrast, showed meaningful intergroup differences for racial/ethnic group and other demographic variables. CONCLUSIONS: Depressive symptoms and substance use were associated in a sample of middle-school students who were largely non-White and predominantly Hispanic. Greater understanding of the nature of this association is needed; this understanding should be used to design prevention programs, and prevention programs should be introduced at least in the middle-school years.

“…Costello og medarbeidere (13) fant at tobakksrøyking var langt mer prevalent blant ungdom med depresjon enn blant ungdom som ikke hadde noen diagnose. Noen studier viser at sammenhengen mellom depressivitet og røyking er sterkere blant jenter enn blant gutter (14)(15)(16). Acierno og medarbeidere (17) hevder også å ha funnet dette, men de statistiske analysene de baserer denne konklusjonen på er ikke overbevisende.…”

Korrespondanse: Leif Aarø, Telefon: 55 58 26 06 Telefax: 55 58 98 87 e-post: leif.aaro@psych.uib.no SAMMENDRAGFlere tidligere studier blant ungdom (både tverrsnittsundersøkelser og prospektive panelundersøkelser) har vist at ungdom som er deprimerte eller som skårer høyt på skalaer som måler depressivitet har en økt sannsynlighet for å røyke. Om depressivitet er en medvirkende årsak til at ungdom røyker er imidlertid uklart. Strukturelle ligningsmodeller som kan bidra til å belyse spørsmålet om kausalitet brukes sjelden. I den foreliggende undersøkelsen har vi benyttet data fra en prospektiv panelundersøkelse blant ungdom i Hordaland. Også i dette datamaterialet finner vi tverrsnitts-assosiasjoner mellom depressivitet og røyking. Sammenhengene er ikke signifikant forskjellige for gutter og jenter. Ved bruk av data fra tre tidspunkt (1992, 1993 og 1995) utvikles det to strukturelle ligningsmodeller (n=551) som begge tyder på at kausaliteten hovedsakelig går fra depressivitet til røyking. Sammenhengene er relativt svake, men de synes å øke noe med alder. Modellene forblir uendret selv når det kontrolleres for foreldres røykevaner og foreldres sosioøkonomiske status. Depressivitet har trolig langt mindre å bety for ungdoms røykevaner enn faktorer som tilgjengelighet på tobakk og sosial påvirkning. Depressivitet er sannsynligvis av større betydning som en barriere i forbindelse med å få voksne til å slutte å røyke enn som en faktor en må ta hensyn til når en planlegger forebyggende tiltak overfor ungdom. ENGLISH SUMMARYA number of studies (cross sectional as well as prospective longitudinal studies) have shown positive associations between scores on scales measuring depressive tendencies and smoking habits among adolescents. Still it is not clear to what extent depressive tendencies can be regarded as a causal factor in the process of smoking initiation. Structural equation modelling, which is a most useful tool when testing out causal models, are seldom applied. The present analyses are based on data from a prospective panel study carried out among a cohort of adolescents from one county in Western Norway. Data collected in 1992, 1993, and 1995 (the students were 15 years old in 1992) are used. Significant cross-sectional associations between depressive tendencies and smoking habits are found on all three measurement occasions. None of the associations are significantly different for boys and girls (no significant interaction effects). Two structural equations models with approximately the same levels of fit are developed. Both models (one cross-lagged and one with simultaneous regression) indicate that the causal direction goes from depressive tendencies to smoking. The regression coefficients are rather moderate, but the impact of depressive tendencies on smoking habits seems to increase with age. When controlling for parents' smoking habits and parents' socioeconomic status the models remain unchanged. Depressive tendencies are probably less important in the process of smoking initiation among adolescents than...

“…17 Thus, in addressing our first question (i.e., the extent of a relationship between depressive symptoms and OSA), studies needed to include both PSG and a depression assessment measure in both the OSA and comparison groups. Twenty-two published studies were initially identified: 11 were excluded: 4 due to lack of the use of PSG to detect OSA (one lacked PSG in the control group 18 ), [19][20][21][22] 4 for the absence of a depression measure, [23][24][25][26] 1 lacked a comparison group, 27 and 1 was excluded due to division of groups into snorers versus non-snorers, without assessing for OSA. 28 Eleven studies satisfied the inclusion criteria.…”

Background: A higher incidence of depressive disorders and symptoms has been suggested among children suffering from obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Yet, the extent to which OSA is related to increased depression is unclear. Objectives: To evaluate (a) the relationship between depressive symptoms and OSA in pediatric populations, and (b) the effi cacy of adenotonsillectomy (AT) for decreasing depressive symptoms among children with OSA. Methods: A meta-analysis was conducted to assess the relationship between depressive symptoms and OSA, and the effi cacy of AT for decreasing depressive symptoms. Studies reporting depressive symptoms of children with OSA through January 2013 were included. Results: Eleven studies assessed depressive symptoms in both children diagnosed with OSA (n = 894) and a comparison group (n = 1,096). A medium relationship was found between depressive symptoms and OSA (Hedges' g = 0.43, 95% CI: 0.22-0.64; p = 0.0005). Addressing the second question, 9 studies (n = 379 children) examined depressive symptoms pre-and post-AT. A medium improvement in depressive symptoms was found at follow-up (Hedge's g = 0.41, 95% CI: 0.20-0.62; p ≤ 0.001). Conclusion: Our fi ndings suggest that depressive symptoms are higher among children with OSA. Therefore, patients with depressive symptomatology should receive screening for sleep disordered breathing. Treatment of OSA with AT might decrease clinical symptoms of depression, reduce pharmacotherapy, improve sleep patterns, and promote better health. Keywords: Sleep disordered breathing, obstructive sleep apnea, depression, depressive symptoms, meta-analysis Citation: Yilmaz E; Sedky K; Bennett DS.
