- W2078235044 abstract "Heart failure (HF) and depression are debilitating diseases with significant effects on functional status and real and perceived quality of life. Despite many advances in therapy for HF mortality remains high. Depression and HF have been recognized to coexist but this does not imply a causative relation. Depressed patients develop more symptoms, have worse compliance with medication regimens, are slower to return to work and social activities, and seem to have a poorer quality of life. In patients with known cardiac disease depression also predicts future events independent of disease severity and other risk factors such as smoking or diabetes mellitus. In conclusion, this review attempts to address the cause/effect relation, if any, between HF and depression and the role of treatment of depression in the setting of HF. Heart failure (HF) and depression are debilitating diseases with significant effects on functional status and real and perceived quality of life. Despite many advances in therapy for HF mortality remains high. Depression and HF have been recognized to coexist but this does not imply a causative relation.

In conclusion, this review attempts to address the cause/effect relation, if any, between HF and depression and the role of treatment of depression in the setting of HF. Heart failure (HF) and depression have profound effects on functional status and quality of life. Considering the high coprevalence of HF and depression this review addresses factors that are common to the 2 conditions and outlines reasons that a cause/effect relation may be too simplistic. Indeed, HF and depression may create a vicious cycle in which they worsen each other, leading to their combination being more severe than the additive effects of each considered in isolation. HF affects approximately 5 million Americans with 550,000 new cases diagnosed each year.1Hunt S.A. Abraham W.T. Chin M.H. Feldman A.M. Francis G.S. Ganiats T.G. Jessup M. Konstam M.A. Mancini D.M.

Molecular pathways and mechanisms can be grouped into 4 categories: neurohormonal activation, inflammatory mediators, arrhythmias, and hypercoagulability. A compensatory mechanism in response to physiologic stress over time, neurohormonal activation and autonomic hyperactivity become pathologic and contribute to worsening left ventricular function rather than compensation. Autonomic arousal and hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenocortical axis hyperactivity causes vasoconstriction and volume expansion. Initially this maintains perfusion during low-output states but eventually increases blood pressure. As this develops the heart's ability to respond appropriately is overwhelmed by excessive afterload and volume expansion, leading to worsening cardiac function. This causes further increases in sympathetic tone, activation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system, and development or worsening of HF.24Pepper G.S. Lee R.W. Sympathetic activation in heart failure and its treatment with beta-blockade.Arch Intern Med. 1999; 159: 225-234Crossref PubMed Scopus (87) Google Scholar These pathways have also been linked to the development of depression.25Plotsky P.M.

Miller H. Pathophysiological role of cytokines in congestive heart failure.Annu Rev Med. 2001; 6: 95-103Google Scholar Initially the inflammatory cascade is protective because it allows the heart to respond appropriately to physiologic stress through cardiac myocyte hypertrophy and protection from apoptosis. However, as HF progresses these cytokines become maladaptive and play an important role in ventricular remodeling, uncoupling of β-adrenergic receptors, apoptosis, and contractile dysfunction resulting in pathogenesis of HF.27Blum A. Miller H. Pathophysiological role of cytokines in congestive heart failure.Annu Rev Med. 2001; 6: 95-103Google Scholar Inflammatory pathways also activate the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenocortical axis, which can be pathologic and feed into the negative loop described in the previous section. Levels of proinflammatory cytokines correlate with disease severity and markers of inflammation such as high-sensitivity-C reactive protein and D-dimer may be used to monitor therapy of acute HF exacerbations.28Nair N.

Heart rate variability and cardiac failure.Heart. 1998; 80: 213-214PubMed Google Scholar Decreased HRV is a marker of decreased parasympathetic tone, which exposes the heart to unopposed stimulation by sympathetic nerves and thus may provoke ventricular arrhythmias. High levels of norepinephrine and interleukin-6 are associated with decreased HRV, implying that autonomic arousal, inflammation, and arrhythmias may be interrelated. Depressed patients have a similar tendency to arrhythmias and decreased HRV even in the absence of HF, which could indicate a similar imbalance between autonomic sympathetic/parasympathetic balance and regulation.31Gorman J.M.

Depressed patients are less active, have worse compliance with medication and diet, and are more likely to abuse tobacco and alcohol. Such behavioral issues in our view may contribute to the development and worsening of HF and negatively affect self-image, which can in turn worsen depression. Diuretics result in frequent urination and possibly social embarrassment, aldosterone antagonists can cause gynecomastia and body dysmorphia in men, and β blockers can cause insomnia, fatigue, and sexual dysfunction, among other issues. This amplifies the central theme in our opinion that these 2 conditions create a cycle in which each worsens the other, leading to worse outcomes and treatment challenges. Compliance with treatment regimens is challenging in patients with HF. Treatment regimens are frequently complex, often involving multiple medications taken several times daily; thus the mental burden on patients to take their medications correctly is high. Noncompliance is a factor in a large number of HF-related hospitalizations and has been shown to be an independent risk factor for mortality even when the therapy is placebo. Monane et al39Monane M. Bohn R.L. Gurwitz J.H. Glynn R.J. Avorn J. Noncompliance with congestive heart failure therapy in the elderly.Arch Intern Med. 1994; 154: 433-437Crossref PubMed Scopus (251) Google Scholar followed 7,200 patients with HF and found a compliance rate of only 10% with an average of 111 days per year when patients took no medications at all. Coping mechanisms can be maladaptive and using them can worsen HF, although their loss can lead to worsening depression. Given the disabling nature of HF and the complexity of many treatment regimens, it is therefore not surprising that depression is linked to poor compliance. In patients with hypertension depression is an independent risk factor for noncompliance.40Wang P.S. Bohn R.L. Knight E. Glynn R.J. Mogun H. Avorn J.

There are several areas where information about the relation between HF and depression are lacking such as data on the effectiveness of treatment for depression and how this modifies the pathways shared by HF and depression.
