EPA-0163 – The adverse children experience in sjogren's syndrome adult patients suffering mental disorders

2014 
Introduction The adverse experience in childhood (parental deprivation mostly) (AEC) has an important role in predisposing to mood and immuno-inflammatory rheumatic disorders in adults via chronic stress mechanisms. The primary Sjogren's Syndrome (SS) - a chronic, systemic autoimmune disease, which has some common pathogenic links with stress-related mental disorders. Objectives/Aims To evaluate the AEC and MD presentation in SS patients. Methods 80 inpatients (mean age 46,2+12,3 yrs) suffering SS were enrolled in the study. MD were diagnosed in accordance with ICD-10 criteria. The severity of depression, anxiety, stress were measured with HADS, MADRS, HAM-A, PSS-10. Results The AEC had 78,7% of SS patients (recurrent events – 32,5%). Patients with AEC had an increased risk of developing dysthymia (OR=1,34; 95% CI=0,26–6,83) and depressive episode (OR=1,75 (0,35–8,65)) in adults. Recurrent depression was not revealed in patients with ACE. However, patients with AEC had no reliable differences in the MADRS, HAM-A, HADS, PSS-10 compared to patients without AEC. Patients with AEC had an increased risk of suicide attempts (OR=2,15; (0,25–37,2)) and suicidal thoughts (OR=4,58; (0,25–18,5)). The reliable correlations of the severity of SS symptoms (dry eyes/mouth, lymphoma) and AEC have not been confirmed. Patients with AEC had early onset SS (33,6±13,0 vs 38,1±14,2) and MD (28,4±12,6 vs 34,1±13,5) than patients without AEC. Conclusion AE? is a significant risk factor for depression and suicidal thoughts and attempts in patients suffering SS.
