Participaron más de 370 pacientes con ICC (grado II o superior de la NYHA), que recibieron el Beck Depresión Inventory (BDI), y en caso de superar los 10 puntos en esta escala, también el Diagnostic Interview Schedule (DIS). Los pacientes con patología renal crónica grave presentaron un odds ratio de 2,89 para síntomas depresivos en el BDI. Y la depresión, tal como se define en el DIS, y la disfunción renal grave fueron elementos predictivos de mortalidad
Los autores de este trabajo, que aparece en el “American Journal of Kidney Disease” concluyen que son necesarios estudios sobre la eficacia de los antidepresivos en los pacientes con patología renal crónica, para poder determinar si estos fármacos pueden tener además un impacto sobre la mortalidad.
