Depression in cirrhosis – A prospective evaluation of the prevalence, predictors and development of a screening nomogram

Alimentary Pharmacology and Therapeutics Dec 21, 2018

Buganza-Torio E, et al. - Using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI), researchers identified prevalence, predictors and depression outcomes and developed a screening nomogram for use among patients with cirrhosis. For this investigation, they consecutively recruited cirrhotic outpatients 18-80 years of age who were not on anti-depressants from liver clinics at three tertiary care hospitals. According to the findings obtained, depression was common in cirrhotic patients and was related to adverse outcomes, including lower health-related quality of life and a higher degree of physical frailty. Overall, the developed clinical nomogram appears promising for the rapid screening of depression in this study population.
