摘要
IMPORTANCE Depression among hearing impaired US adults has not been studied previously. OBJECTIVE To estimate the prevalence of and risk factors for depression among adults with hearing loss. DESIGN SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Adults aged 18 years or older (N =18 318) who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2010 a nationally representative sample. INTERVENTIONS Multistage probability sampling of US population. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Depression assessed by the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) scale and hearing impairment (HI) assessed by self-report and audiometric examination for adults aged 70 years or older. RESULTS The prevalence of moderate to severe depression (PHQ-9 score, >= 10) was 4.9% for individuals reporting excellent hearing 7.1% for those with good hearing and 11.4% for participants who reported a little trouble or greater HI. Using excellent hearing as the reference after adjusting for all covariates multivariate odds ratios (ORs) for depression were 1.4 (95% CI 1.1-1.8) for good hearing 1.7 (1.3-2.2) for a little trouble 2.4 (1.7-3.2) for moderate trouble 1.5 (0.9-2.6) for a lot of trouble and 0.6 (0.1-2.6) for deaf. Moderate HI (defined by better ear pure-tone average of hearing thresholds at 0.5 1,2, and 4 kHz within the range 35to 49-dB hearing level) was significantly associated with depression among older women (OR 3.9 95% CI 1.3-11.3) after adjusting for age sex race/ethnicity lifestyle characteristics and selected health conditions. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE After accounting for health conditions and other factors including trouble seeing self-reported HI and audiometrically determined HI were significantly associated with depression particularly in women. Health care professionals should be aware of an increased risk for depression among adults with hearing loss.
