Prevalence of Depression in Patients With Mild Cognitive Impairment: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
JAMA Psychiatry 2017 January 2
IMPORTANCE: Depression is common in individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and may confer a higher likelihood of progression to dementia. Prevalence estimates of depression in those with MCI are required to guide both clinical decisions and public health policy, but published results are variable and lack precision.
OBJECTIVE: To provide a precise estimate of the prevalence of depression in individuals with MCI and identify reasons for heterogeneity in the reported results.
DATA SOURCES: A search of literature from database inception to March 2016 was performed using Medline, Embase, and PsycINFO. Hand searching of all included articles was performed, including a Google Scholar search of citations of included articles.
STUDY SELECTION: Articles were included if they (1) were published in English, (2) reported patients with MCI as a primary study group, (3) reported depression or depressive symptoms using a validated instrument, and (4) reported the prevalence of depression in patients with MCI.
DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS: All abstracts, full-text articles, and other sources were reviewed, with data extracted in duplicate. The overall prevalence of depression in patients with MCI was pooled using a random-effects model. Heterogeneity was explored using stratification and random-effects meta-regression.
MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: The prevalence of depression in patients with MCI, reported as a percentage with 95% CIs. Estimates were also stratified by population source (community-based or clinic-based sample), method of depression diagnosis (clinician-administered, informant-based, or self-report), and method of MCI diagnosis (cognitive vs global measure and amnestic vs nonamnestic).
RESULTS: Of 5687 unique abstracts, 255 were selected for full-text review, and 57 studies, representing 20 892 patients, met all inclusion criteria. The overall pooled prevalence of depression in patients with MCI was 32% (95% CI, 27-37), with significant heterogeneity between estimates (I2 = 90.7%). When stratified by source, the prevalence of depression in patients with MCI in community-based samples was 25% (95% CI, 19-30) and was 40% (95% CI, 32-48) in clinic-based samples, which was significantly different (P < .001). The method used to diagnose depression did not significantly influence the prevalence estimate, nor did the criteria used for MCI diagnosis or MCI subtype.
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: The prevalence of depression in patients with MCI is high. A contributor to heterogeneity in the reported literature is the source of the sample, with greater depression burden prevalent in clinic-based samples.
