AB [EN] Background: Depression is associated with a decreased cardiorespiratory fitness,and physical activity [PA] levels, higher rates of obesity, and dysfunction in autonomiccontrol of heart rate [HR]. However, these parameters were mostly recorded with indirectmethods. Thus, the aim of the current study was to investigate the relationships betweendepression scores and objective measures of body fatness, autonomic indices (i.e. HRVand HRR), cardiorespiratory fitness and PA levels; and subsequently to present the bestpredictive models of depression scores for this population, based on these variables.Methods: Thirty-five non-exercising women (26–43 years; maximal oxygenconsumption [VO2max] ∼ 17.4–38.3 mL/kg/min) volunteered for participation inthis study. All participants responded to the Beck Depression Inventory [DBI] andwere evaluated for body mass index [BMI], percentage of body fat, sum of skinfolds,and VO2max. Subsequently, over four consecutive days, an orthostatic test anda submaximal exercise on a cycle ergometer were performed to record HRV andHRR, respectively. In addition, incidental PA was recorded during 5 consecutive daysusing accelerometers.Results: depression scores were related to VO2max (r = −0.446, p = 0.007) andthe sum of skinfolds (r = 0.434, p = 0.009). Several stepwise multiple linear regressionmodels were performed and only VO2max was revealed as an independent predictor ofthe Beck scores (ß = −0.446, R² = 0.199, p = 0.007).Conclusion: The present study revealed that VO2max and the sum of skinfolds weremoderately related to depression scores, while VO2max was the only independentpredictor of depression scores in female workers.
