초록

연구목적 치료받지 못한 우울증은 자살위험성을 높인다는 여러 선행 연구결과에도 불구하고, 청소년기에 발병한 기분 장애가 치료받지 못한 경우 자살 위험성 및 자살 시도와 어떻게 연관되는지에 관한 연구결과는 거의 없어서 이를 확인하고자 하였다. 방 법 본 연구는 2017년 5월부터 2018년 4월까지 수집된 자료를 바탕으로 한 단면연구로, unipolar 혹은 bipolar depression으로 진단된 260명이 최종 분석에 포함되었다. 자가보고형 검사도구를 이용해 사회인구학적 특성과 우울 및 자살 관련 특성을 평가하였다. 과거력 상 우울 삽화 치료 여부에 따라 untreated군과 treated 혹은 1st episode 군으로 분류하였으며, 두 집단의 사회인구학적 특성과 임상적 특성을 비교했다. 다중 선형 회귀분석 및 다중 로지스틱 회귀분석을 시행하여 자살 위험성 및 자살 시도의 예측 인자를 분석했다. 결 과 총 260명의 환자 중 untreated군 189명, treated 혹은 1st episode 군은 71명 이었으며 untreated군에서 자살 시도한 비율, 우울 점수, 자살 위험성 및 자살시도 횟수가 유의하게 높았다. 자살시도를 예측하는 인자로는 과거력 상 치료받지 못한 경우[Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR)=4.19, 95% Confidence Interval (CI)=2.25~7.81, p<0.001]와 양극성 우울증의 진단(AOR=2.60, 95% CI=1.52~4.46, p<0.001)이었다. 결 론 본 연구를 통해 청소년기 우울증의 86.7%에서 치료를 받지 못했음이 확인되었고, 치료받지 못한 우울증은 높은 자살위험성과 연관되었다. 향후 청소년기 우울증의 조기 선별 뿐 아니라 적극적인 치료적 개입이 이루어 지도록 정책 수립이 필요하며 이와 관련한 후속 장기 추적관찰 연구가 기대된다.

Objectives : Evidence regarding the association between untreated depression in adolescence and suicidal risk in male young adults is scarce. We aimed to assess the effect of untreated illness during adolescence on the suicidal risk and attempt after that first episode. Methods : As part of a cross-sectional study, between May 2017 and April 2018, a total of 260 patients with currently unipolar or bipolar depression were included in the final analysis. Multiple linear and logistic regression analysis were performed to evaluate the association between untreated mood disorder in adolescence and its effect on the suicidal risk and attempt. Results : In total 260 patients, 189 were classified as untreated group. The proportion of suicide attempts, total depression score, suicidal risk and number of suicide attempts were significantly higher in the untreated group. The most predictive factors of suicide attempts were history of untreated depression [Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR)=4.19, 95% Confidence Interval (CI)=2.25-7.81, p<0.001] and diagnosis of bipolar depression (AOR=2.60, 95% CI=1.52-4.46, p<0.001). Conclusions : Although the untreated depression suggests higher rates of suicidality, a significant proportion (86.7%) of adolescent depression in this study did not receive psychiatric treatment. Future research should be needed to find better ways to decrease barriers in using mental health treatment and its contribution to reduction and prevention of adverse outcome.
