Symptoms of anxiety and depression and use of anxiolytic-hypnotics and antidepressants in current and former smokers with and without COPD - a cross sectional analysis of the COPDGene cohort.
This study compared the frequency of anxiety/depressive symptoms of current and former smokers with and without COPD and their use of anxiolytic-hypnotics/antidepressants. A cohort of 5331 current/former smokers were surveyed. About 25% of smokers with and without COPD had anxiety/depressive symptoms. Unmedicated smokers tended to be African American, male, have no health insurance, have severe-very severe COPD and higher respiratory symptoms/exacerbation history.

Multiple drug intolerance syndrome and multiple drug allergy syndrome: epidemiology and associations with anxiety and depression.
In this study, the authors used electronic health record (EHR) data to describe prevalences of MDIS and MDAS and to examine associations with anxiety and depression. The investigators concluded that: 1.) while 6% of patients had MDIS, only 1% had MDAS; 2.) MDIS was associated with both anxiety and depression; 3.) patients with both anxiety and depression had an almost twofold increased odds of MDIS; 4.) MDAS was associated with a 40% increased odds of depression, but there was no significant association with anxiety.
