“…In the present study, the frequency of depression in obese and overweight women was approximately 30%. According to Salehi et al ., depression at the second and third trimesters in obese women was 33.3% and 28.8%, respectively, which is consistent with the results of present study …”

“…In this study, we observed a significantly positive correlation between depression score and BMI during second and third trimester of gestation. The risk of depression in all trimmers of pregnancy in obese women was higher than normal weight in their study, so that the risk of depression was 3.25‐fold in the first trimester and 3.29‐fold in the second trimester of pregnancy for classes 2–3 obesity greater than normal weight . According to the Rezaee study, there was a positive correlation between BMI and depression symptoms .…”

“…Eligibility criteria included age over 18 years, being in the second and/or third trimester of pregnancy, singleton pregnancy, willingness to participate in the study, and having health record in health centers. The women were excluded if they had the history of depression and stressful life events in the past month at the start of sampling, history of hospitalization in current pregnancy, or if they followed the special diet (according to the mother's statement), addiction or habitual use of alcohol and drugs, history of infertility and using fertility methods, history of death of close relatives, divorce and other acute emotional problems during the past 3 months, and lack of physical health.…”

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the screening result of depression and its predictors in overweight and obese pregnant women in second and third trimester of pregnancy. Methods: The present cross-sectional study was carried out on 232 overweight or obese pregnant women older than 18 years in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale questionnaire, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire and the Food Record were used. Independent t-test, Man-Whitney U, Pearson and Spearman correlation test, independent t-test, one-way analysis of variance and, multivariate linear regression were applied for data analysis using SPSS 21.Results: The results of the study showed that the mean (standard deviation) score of depression was 10.1 (4.4), and it was similar in both overweight and obese women (P = 0.784). Median (quartile 25-75) of physical activity was 891.0 (495.0-1336.0) metabolic equivalent of task -min/week. The total physical activity in obese women was statistically higher than overweight ones (P = 0.032). In linear regression model, the variables of parity, body mass index, physical activity education, protein, fat, oleic acid, monounsaturated fatty acids, potassium, magnesium, and zinc were the strong predictors of depression, and along with the others explained the 80% of variances. Conclusion: Considering the fact that nearly one-third of overweight and obese women in the present study were positive for depression screening, it is important to pay attention to strong predictors of depression in these women.

Aims: Obesity-related complications have been identified across the entire childbearing journey. This study investigated changes in obesity prevalence and their impact on obstetric outcomes in a regional hospital in Victoria, Australia. Methods: All women delivering during 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2016 were eligible to participate. Trends over time and outcomes were assessed on body mass indices (BMI). Incidences of complications were compared by BMI categories. The effect of obesity on hospital length of stay (LoS) was further assessed using the Generalised Estimating Equations approach.Results: During the study period a total of 6661 women of whom 27.5% were overweight, and 16.1, 7.7, and 5.5% were respectively obese class I, class II, and class III, contributed to 8838 births. An increased trend over time in the prevalence of obesity (BMI > 35.0) (P = 0.041) and a decreased trend for vaginal deliveries for the whole sample (P = 0.003) were found. Multiple adverse outcomes were associated with increasing maternal BMI including increased risk of gestational diabetes, gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, emergency caesarean section, shoulder dystocia, macrosomia, and admission to special care. The multivariable analysis showed no associations between LoS and BMI. Conclusions:Over a short period of seven years, this study provides evidence of a significant trend toward more obesity and fewer vaginal births in a non-urban childbearing population, with increasing trends of poorer health outcomes.Assessing needs and risk factors tailored to this population is crucial to ensuring a model of care that safeguards a sustainable and effective regional maternity health service.

Obesity is currently one of the most serious health problems, affecting 13% of the world's adult population. Obesity is characterized by persistent low-grade chronic inflammation that assumes systemic proportions and triggers several associated metabolic diseases. Furthermore, obesity has been associated with an increased occurrence of central disorders such as impaired cognitive function, reward system dysfunction, and depression. In summary, there is a quantitative reduction in the release of neurotransmitters in depression.Postsynaptic cells capture lower concentrations of neurotransmitters, which leads to a functional reduction in the central nervous system (CNS). Globally, approximately 15-65% of women experience depressive symptoms during pregnancy, depending on their location. Depressive symptoms persist in some women, leading to postpartum depression (PPD). Thus, obesity may be considered a risk factor for PPD development. This study aimed to synthesize studies on the impact of obesity-related neuroinflammation and PPD. We conducted a narrative review of the relevant literature. The search was performed in electronic databases, specifically PubMed, selecting articles in English published from 2014 to 2021 using the narrative review methodology.

The association between pre-pregnancy obesity and screening results of depression for all trimesters of pregnancy, postpartum and 1 year after birth: a cohort study

Abstract: Pre-pregnancy obesity was associated with probability of gestational and post-delivery depression. Therefore, training and planning to conduct required interventions to resolve obesity seem be helpful in this regard.
