Depression and Heart Disease - A Cross Cultural ViewAbdon Nanhay
INTRODUCTION
Depression is considered one of the most disabling diseases by year 2020, according to the World Health Organization
(WHO) statements. Epidemiological evidences indicate depression as an independent psychosocial risk factor for the
morbidity and mortality of heart disease around the world . Although the precise pathophysiological pathways linking
these disorders remain unknown, it seems that depression plays a key role in the development of heart disease, since it
contributes to the overactive of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical axis, platelet activation, and decreased heart rate
variability.
In 1995, the WHO concluded the largest international multicentric survey on Psychological Problems in General Health Care (PPGHC). The PPGHC searched for the form, frequency, course and outcome of psychological problems commonly seen in
primary care facilities . This research had the collaboration of 15 centers from 14 countries: Ankara (Turkey), Athens
(Greece), Bangalore (India), Berlin and Mainz (Germany), Ibadan (Nigeria), Manchester (United Kingdom), Nagasaki
(Japan), Paris (France), Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), Santiago del Chile (Chile), Seattle (USA), Shangai (China) and Verona
(Italy) . It was a cross-sectional study of two stages: first-stage, a total of 25916 consecutive attenders were screened
for psychological distress, by using the 12-item General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12); Patients screened were
sampled from the GHQ-12 score strata for the second-stage: the psychiatric interview, using the Composite International
Diagnostic Interview – Primary Health Care version (CIDI-PHC). It was applied to 5447 eligible persons for psychiatric
assessment of depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, somatization disorders, neurasthenia and alcohol problems,
according to the International Statistical Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) and the Diagnostic and
Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Revised Third Edition (DSM-III-R) diagnostic criteria. The responders were also
interviewed about the presence of seven chronic medical conditions: hypertension, diabetes, arthritis, heart disease,
bronchitis/emphysema, stomach disorder and common parasitic disease.
During the PPGHC project, general practitioners seeing clients at the first-stage, were inquired to answer an encounter
form for each patient. It consisted of some sections: reason for contact, level of overall health, physical health status,
psychological health status and treatment prescribed. In almost all centers, there was a low rate of mental disorders
recognized by doctors, including depressive disorders, comparing to CIDI-PHC data findings.
The relationship between depression and heart disease is well documented. Some works compare symptoms of depression
with heart disease; others used a variety of scales and instruments for psychiatric morbidity measurement, to study that
connection. In the present study, the standardized psychiatric diagnosis for depression, generated from the CIDI-PHC, will be compared with the self-reported diagnosis of heart disease across cultures.

Abstract
Cause and Effects of Heart Diseases
Heart diseases are among the illness that constitutes a lot of death cases that might be reported daily. In the last three years, research from the World Health Organization shows that around 300000 people died from heart diseases a previous year. Thus, after attending the class that had a discussion about heart diseases, it motivated me to learn more about heart diseases. Could you ever imagine the number of people in the entire world who are willing to know the causes of heart diseases so that they can take caution on what to do and what to avoid? Therefore, this forms another aspect of motivation to carry out the study as it would help the individuals in society and my career as I would be able to become a professional doctor. Among the many causes of heart disease is the lifestyle an individual has, for example, engagement in smoking, having an unhealthy diet, and many more. Lamentably, there is an increase in the number of deaths from heart disease, and unawareness of the causes of heart disease, it would be necessary to study the causes and effects of heart disease. This is crucial because the health of a person promotes his or her well-being.
Literature Review
Each day new cases form a number of countries that are reported to the WHO, indicating that the figure of people who die from heart diseases and the increased level of unawareness of the causes of heart diseases. Therefore, it is essential to explore the effects brought out by heart diseases and what leads to the contraction of heart diseases. These results are attained from various scholars who have analyzed the causes and consequences of heart disease for a better understanding of the public. The analysis from the scholarly articles would help develop an excellent paper that would create awareness of the causes as well as the effects of heart disease.
In the past, there has been a decrease in population due to death cases from heart diseases. An example of this is the United States that leads to the experience of deaths from heart diseases. Coles & amp; Mensah, 2017, engage in giving out the ways in showing how the government can be involved in creating awareness about the disease as these lead to the decrease in the death cases. Most citizens in every country are concerned about their health, and they would wish to do anything so that they can avoid heart diseases (Coles & amp; Mensah, 2017). The outbreak of heart diseases may be caused by the daily activities that individuals engage in that are not suitable for their healt.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

what

what

with
effecXve

what

To
the
Editor:
In
their
nice
editorial
in
the
March
issue
of
the
Journal,
Kiley
and
colleagues
(1)
list
the
strategic
prioriXes
and
procedures
of
the
NaXonal
Heart,
Lung,
and
Blood
InsXtute
(NHLBI)
to
streamline
human
health
research
up
to
2025.
From
a
historical
perspecXve,
we
all
recognize
the
significant
achievements
of
the
U.S.
NaXonal
InsXtutes
of
Health
and
the
NHLBI,
with
decades
of
success,
that
have
facilitated
breakthroughs
in
promoXng
health
and
fighXng
disease
by
funding
key
research
both
internally
and
extramurally,
including
internaXonally.
However,
we
were
surprised
that
the
(magical)
keyword
“tobacco”
was
not
menEoned
at
all
within
this
short
document,
so
anyone
might
wonder,
what
if
.
.
.
the
NHLBI
considers
tobacco?
Likely,
beyond
your
pages,
some
readers
in
the
sister,
simultaneous
publicaXons
in
the
American
Journal
of
Public
Health,
Blood,
CirculaXon,
or
the
Journal
of
the
American
College
of
Cardiology
might
consider
that
tobacco
affects
paXents
in
most
(all?)
respiratory
and
nonrespiratory
condiXons.
We
must
keep
reminding
ourselves
that
tobacco
is
the
first
and
foremost
causal,
avoidable
risk
factor
for
human
disease.
Perhaps
it
has
been
neglected
too
ojen
in
the
past
in
many
medical
venues
(2,
3).
Therefore,
the
NHLBI
should
welcome
iniXaXves
on
key
tobacco-‐related
translaXonal
issues
as
well
as
on
the
efficacy
and
the
effecXveness
of
any
smoking
reducXon
and/or
avoidance
intervenXons,
in
addiXon
to
iniXaXves
on
any
other
risk
factors
to
help
define
smoking
issues
at
the
populaXon
and
individual
levels.
Well
past
the
so-‐called
cigareae
century
(4),
tobacco
is
sXll
causally
linked
to
an
increasing
number
of
diseases
(5).
Although
there
have
been
some
recent
successes
in
the
West,
there
are
more
smokers
nowadays
than
ever
before
in
human
history,
causing
far
too
many
premature
deaths
and
disabiliXes
(6).
We
strongly
believe
that
research
drives
all
health
advocacy
and
that
the
final
soluXon
to
the
tobacco
problem
will
be
through
legislaXon
(7).
Rephrasing
the
introductory
paragraphs
of
the
editorial,
“Imagine
a
world
with
no
tobacco,
and
later,
perhaps
only
one
generaXon
ajer,
a
no-‐tobacco-‐related-‐disease
world.”
Wouldn’t
it
be
nice?
We
can
set
this
objecXve
within
our
lifeXme,
and
certainly
we
will
parXcipate
in
this
process
(8).
