Overview

Mediation analysis reveals the link between digestive diseases and depressive symptoms in middle-aged and elderly adults, suggesting sleep's crucial role.

Key Points

  • Insufficient nighttime sleep partially mediates the relationship between digestive diseases and depressive symptoms.
  • The prevalence of digestive diseases is 23.05%, with depressive symptoms detected at 35.90%.
  • Multivariate logistic regression shows significant associations between digestive diseases and depressive symptoms.
  • Findings underscore the importance of addressing nighttime sleep quality in managing depression among patients with digestive diseases.
