“…Then, we explored the mediating role of cognitive function in the bidirectional relationship between depression and ADL in patients with PD, and the mediation effect test was carried out using a bias-corrected nonparametric percentile bootstrap approach.ResultsDepression in patients with PD predicted their subsequent ADL (β = 0.079, p < 0.01), and ADL also predicted their subsequent depression (β = 0.069, p < 0.05), In addition, Bootstrap analysis showed that cognitive function played a significant mediating role in prediction of depression to ADL in patients with PD (β = 0.006, p = 0.074, 95%CI = 0.001 ~ 0.014), and cognitive function also played a significant mediating role in prediction of depression to ADL (β = 0.006, p = 0.067, 95%CI = 0.001 ~ 0.013).ConclusionThere is a bidirectional relationship between depression and ADL in patients with PD. …”
