Core Tip

Core Tip: This study focuses on developing and validating a risk prediction model specifically for depressive symptoms in middle-aged and elderly individuals with arthritis utilizing data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study national survey. By addressing the unique challenges of this population, the model aims to improve early detection and management of depression, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes and guiding more effective interventions.
