Dissertation
Depression, Emotional Eating, and Cardiovascular Disease Risk in Children and Adolescents
2024
Overview
Depression, a burdensome mental health disorder, increases risk of early cardiovascular disease (CVD) in youth. Although the mechanism of association is unknown, emotional eating, an eating behaviour corresponding to eating in response to emotions, may contribute as it relates to both depression and obesity. However, this is poorly understood within the context of children and adolescents. This dissertation explores the role of emotional eating in the association between depression and CVD risk in children and adolescents. Based on meta-analysis of the current literature, depressive symptoms and emotional eating are associated in youth. Further analysis of an outpatient psychiatry program reveals the depression-CVD association is present early in the course of illness and emotional eating is associated with increased CVD risk among female youth with depression. These findings offer better understanding of emotional eating in the depression-CVD risk association and provide initial support for eating-targeted preventative interventions among youth with depression.
