“…this might be due to younger population is more involve in their job and other household work and have more social support compared to older age group. This is consistent with Dasa et al 17 who found around 61% depression in older age group. Patients who has any comorbid condition found to have more depression (77.2%) (Table no6) compared to patients who has no comorbidity (43.5%).…”

Introduction: Anti tuberculosis drug resistance is a major public health problem that threatens progress made in TB care and control. Globally prevalence of MDR TB(Multidrug resistance tuberculosis i.e.resitance to Isoniazid and Rifampicin) is estimated around 4.1% in new cases and 19% in previously treated cases according to WHO report. Clinical depression is common but often neglected problem among TB patients. This study was conducted to know problem of depression among MDR Tb patients. Aims and objectives of this study were to determine the prevalence of depression in people with TB at the time of anti-TB treatment initiation and to assess factors associated with baseline depression. Material and methods: It is a observational study conducted in tertiary care centre. After obtaining proper consent and ethical consent data was collected using PHQ 9 score. Data was analysed using appropriate statistical methods. Results: Out of total 100 patients 80% were Pulmonary Tuberculosis(PTB) while 20% were Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis (EPTB). Around 56% patients were male while 44% were female. Prevalence of depression was 51%. Conclusion: Depression is common problem among MDR TB which is preventable and can be managed if identified at early stage.

“…Drug side effects increase the prevalence of depression in pulmonary tuberculosis patients. This is in line with research (Dasa et al, 2019) finding that early diagnosis of tuberculosis and drug side effects increase the prevalence of depression in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Depression in tuberculosis patients was more common in patients with intensive phases.…”

“…In occupational characteristics, one's income was related to the prevalence of depression in tuberculosis. This is in line with research (Dasa et al, 2019) finding that low income increases psychological pressure due to inability to meet the needs of the patient's own life and that of their family. Regarding drug side effects, there were respondents who experienced severe side effects of drugs.…”

Introduction: Depression is a psychological disorder often experienced by patients undergoing tuberculosis treatment. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of acceptance and commitment therapy based on the health belief model on the depression of pulmonary tuberculosis patients. Methods: This research used a quantitative quasi-experiment design with pre-posttest control group design. There were 56 respondents in this study selected using consecutive sampling among the Primary Healthcare Center in Sidoarjo district. The independent variables were acceptance and commitment therapy based on the health belief model. The dependent variable was depression. Measurement of depression used the Beck Depression inventory II questionnaire. Analysis of the data in this study used the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test and Mann-Whitney U Test. Results: The results showed that the treatment group p=0.000 (p<0.05) and control group p=0.000 (p<0.05), but the delta of the treatment group higher than the control group (delta: -9.79). There were differences in depression values obtained between the treatment group and the control group p=0.001 (p<0.05). Conclusion: Acceptance and commitment therapy based on the health belief model given four sessions for 30-45 minutes each session can lower depression level in pulmonary tuberculosis patients rather than a single intervention of health education. This intervention can be used by nurses to help pulmonary tuberculosis patients overcome psychological problems during treatment.

“…Comorbid mental illness is a notable, unrecognized challenge to TB care and prevention, particularly in high‐burden countries. Indeed, numerous reports have identified a high rate of mental illness, including depression and anxiety, among patients with TB . As such, there has been an increasing focus on the interplay between mental illness, including depression and chronic anxiety, and TB .…”

Depression is a major mental health condition and is expected be the most debilitating and widespread health disorder by 2030. Tuberculosis (TB) is also a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide and interestingly, is a common comorbidity of depression. As such, much attention has been paid to the association between these 2 pathologies. Based on clinical reports, the association between TB and depression seems to be bidirectional, with a substantial overlap in symptoms between the 2 conditions. TB infection or reactivation may precipitate depression, likely as a consequence of the host's inflammatory response and/or dysregulation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis. Nevertheless, few studies have considered whether patients with depression are at a higher risk for TB. In this review, we discuss the hypotheses on the association between depression and TB, highlighting the immuno‐inflammatory response and lipid metabolism as potential mechanisms. Improving our understanding of the interplay between these 2 disorders should help guide TB clinical care and prevention both in patients with comorbid depression and in the general population.
