摘要
Background: In cardiac patients positive affect has found to be associated with improved clinical outcomes, with reduced inflammation being one of the potential mechanisms responsible. Methods: Positive affect was assessed using The Global Mood Scale (GMS), Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS), and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) in patient with chronic heart failure (N = 210; 67 +/- 9 years, 79% men). Markers of inflammation (TNF alpha, sTNFr1, 5TNFr2, IL-6 and CRP) were measured and averaged at three consecutive time points. Results: The positive affect dimensions of the GMS and PANAS were significantly associated with lower averaged levels of 5TNFr2, TNF alpha and IL-6 (p <.1), even after adjustment for clinical and lifestyle confounders. Positive affect of the HADS was significantly associated with lower averaged levels of hsCRP (p <.1), but was no longer significant after correction for lifestyle confounders and depressive symptoms. Conclusion: Positive affect is associated with reduced inflammation in patients with heart failure. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
