Popis: | Abstract Background Cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) including heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes have been individually linked to depression. However, their combined impact on depression risk is unclear. We aimed to examine the association between cardiometabolic multimorbidity and depression and explore the role of genetic background in this association. Methods Within the Swedish Twin Registry, 40,080 depression-free individuals (mean age 60 years) were followed for 18 years. Cardiometabolic multimorbidity was defined as having ≥2 CMDs. CMDs and depression were ascertained based on the National Patient Register. Cox regression was used to estimate the CMD-depression association in a classical cohort study design and a matched co-twin design involving 176 twin pairs. By comparing the associations between monozygotic and dizygotic co-twins, the contribution of genetic background was estimated. Results At baseline, 4809 (12.0%) participants had one CMD and 969 (2.4%) had ≥2 CMDs. Over the follow-up period, 1361 participants developed depression. In the classical cohort design, the multi-adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence interval [CIs]) of depression were 1.52 (1.31–1.76) for those with one CMD and 1.83 (1.29–2.58) for those with ≥2 CMDs. CMDs had a greater risk effect on depression if they developed in mid-life ( |
