Prevalence, Risk Factors, and Prognostic Value of Anxiety and Depression in Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Limited studies report anxiety and depression prevalence and their correlations with prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Even worse, their risk factors for AML remained unclear. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence, risk factors, and prognostic value of anxiety and depression in AML patients.

Methods

Totally, 132 de novo AML patients, 60 non-malignant hematological disease patients (as disease controls), and 60 healthy controls were enrolled. Anxiety and depression status were evaluated by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) in all participants.

Results

HADS-anxiety score (8.2 ± 3.2 vs. 6.1 ± 2.9 vs. 4.7 ± 2.8), anxiety rate (48.5% vs. 25.0% vs. 10.0%), HADS-depression score (7.8 ± 3.0 vs. 5.8 ± 3.0 vs. 4.0 ± 2.8), and depres
