ABSTRACT
PURPOSE: Numerous patients experience long-term complications after HSCT. This study aimed to identify the frequency and risk factors for psychiatric and endocrine complications following HSCT through big data analyses.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: We established a cohort of patients with hematologic disease who underwent HSCT in Korea between 2010 and 2012 using the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service data. A total of 3,636 patients were identified, and insurance claims were tracked using psychiatric and endocrine diagnostic International Classification of Diseases-10th Revision codes for the ensuing decade. We identified the incidence rates of long-term complications based on the baseline disease and HSCT type. Prognostic factors for each complication were scrutinized using logistic regression analysis.
RESULTS: A total of 1,879 patients underwent allogeneic HSCT and 1,757 patients received autologous HSCT. Post-HSCT, 506 patients were diagnosed with depression, 465 with anxiety disorders, and 659 with diabetes. The highest incidence of long-term complications occurred within the first year post-HSCT (12.2%), subsequently decreasing over time. Risk factors for depressive disorders after allogeneic HSCT included female sex, a total body irradiation based conditioning regimen, and cyclosporine. Identified risk factors for diabetes mellitus comprised old age, TBI-based conditioning regimen, and non-Antithymocyte globulin protocol. Regarding autologous HSCT, only female sex was identified as a risk factor for depressive disorders, whereas elderly patients and those with multiple myeloma were identified as poor prognostic factors for diabetes mellitus.
CONCLUSION: The incidence of long-term psychiatric and endocrine complications post-HSCT remains high, and patients with risk factors for these complications require vigilant follow-up.
