OBJECTIVE: Only a few studies have focused on depressive symptoms and Parkinson's disease (PD) risk. As a time lag exists from the onset of depressive symptoms to the diagnosis of depression, elucidating the association between depressive symptoms and PD development might be helpful for the early prediction of PD. We investigate the association between depressive symptoms and subsequent PD risk using nationwide population-based cohort database.

DESIGN AND SETTING: Cohort study using the Korean National Health Insurance Service data between 2007 and 2017, with longitudinal follow-up until 2019.

PARTICIPANTS: A total of 98,296 elderly people responded to a self-reported questionnaire from the National Health Screening Program on depressive symptoms.

MEASUREMENTS: The association between depressive symptoms such as 1) decreased activity or motivation, 2) worthlessness, and 3) hopelessness and PD risk was analyzed.

RESULTS: During median 5.06-year follow-up, 839 PD cases occurred: 230 in individuals with depressive symptoms and 609 in those without symptoms. Results showed an increased risk of PD development in those with depressive symptoms (HR = 1.47, 95% CI, 1.26-1.71), with dose-response association between the number of depressive symptoms and PD risk. Even in those already diagnosed with depression, combined depressive symptoms were linked to a higher risk compared to those without symptoms (with symptoms, HR = 2.71, 95% CI, 2.00-3.68; without symptoms, HR = 1.84, 95% CI, 1.43-2.36).

CONCLUSION: Individuals with depressive symptoms were at an increased risk of developing PD, and there was a dose-response association between the number of depressive symptoms and PD risk.
