A1 Funuyet-Salas, Jesús A1 Pérez-San-Gregorio, María Ángeles A1 Martín-Rodríguez, Agustín A1 Romero-Gómez, Manuel K1 Depression K1 Fibrosis K1 Metabolic disease K1 NAFLD K1 Self-efficacy AB Our aim was to determine whether the association between active coping and depressive symptoms in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was mediated by vitality, and whether diabetes and obesity could impact on this relationship. We also wanted to find out whether mental health and role-physical modulated the relationship between passive/avoidance coping and self-efficacy, and the role of liver fibrosis. Depressive symptoms (BDI-II), self-efficacy (GSE), coping (COPE-28) and quality of life (SF-12) were evaluated in 509 biopsy-proven NAFLD patients in this cross-sectional study. Mediation and moderated mediation models were conducted using the SPSS PROCESS v3.5 macro. Vitality mediated the relationship between active coping and depressive symptoms (-2.254, CI = -2.792 to -1.765), with diabetes (-0.043, p = 0.017) and body mass index (BMI) (-0.005, p = 0.009) moderating the association. In addition, mental health (-6.435, CI = -8.399 to -4.542) and role-physical (-1.137, CI = -2.141 to -0.315) mediated the relationship between passive/avoidance coping and self-efficacy, with fibrosis stage (0.367, p  A maladaptive coping style was associated with poorer vitality, mental health and role-physical in NAFLD patients, which along with the presence of metabolic comorbidity (diabetes and obesity) and significant fibrosis predicted more depressive symptoms or poorer self-efficacy in these patients. These results suggested incorporating emotional and cognitive evaluation and treatment in patients with NAFLD.
