ABSTRACT
Introduction. Among the Peruvian population, the prevalence of overweight and obesity has increased, making
it one of the main public health problems. There is also conflicting evidence on the association between
increased BMI and depressive symptoms in the adult population.
Objective. To determine the association
between nutritional status (NS) and depressive symptoms (DS) in the Peruvian population.
Method. We
conducted a secondary data analysis of the Peruvian Demographic and Family Health Survey (ENDES). We
assessed the NS according to body mass index (BMI), grouped into normal weight (BMI = 18.50 - 24.99),
overweight (BMI = 25.00 - 29.99), 1A obesity (BMI = 30.00 - 32.49), and 1B obesity (BMI ≥ 32.50). DS were
assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) instrument. A generalized linear model stratified
by sex was constructed to calculate crude (cPRc) and adjusted (aPR) prevalence ratios.
Results. A total of
26,463 records of people aged 18-60 years were assessed, yielding a 6.3% prevalence of DS (≥ 10 points).
Females had a higher frequency of DS than males, which increased depending on their NS: normal weight
7.8%, overweight 8.2%, 1A obesity 9.0%, and 1B obesity 12.0%. Likewise, in the multivariate analysis, women
with 1B obesity reported a higher frequency of DS (aPR = 1.30; 95% CI = [1.03, 1.63]).
Discussion and
conclusion. There is a strong association between nutritional status and depressive symptoms in Peruvian
women, with obese women being more likely to have depressive symptoms.
