Objective:
To test vitamin D3 and omega-3s for late-life depression prevention under the National Academy of Medicine framework for indicated (targeting subthreshold depression) and selective (targeting presence of high-risk factors) prevention.
Methods:VITamin D and OmegA-3 TriaL (VITAL) is a 2x2 factorial trial of vitamin D3 (2000 IU/day) and/or omega-3s (1 g/day) for cardiovascular and cancer prevention (enrollment: November 2011-March 2014; end date: December 31, 2017). In this targeted prevention study, we included 720 VITAL clinical sub-cohort participants who completed neurobehavioral assessments at baseline and 2 years (91.9% retention). High-risk factors were: subthreshold or clinical anxiety, impaired activities of daily living, physical/functional limitation, medical comorbidity, cognitive impairment, caregiving burden, problem drinking, and low psychosocial support. Co-primary outcomes were: incident major depression (MDD), adjudicated using DSM-IV (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th edition); change in mood (Patient Health Questionnaire-9 [PHQ-9]). We used exact tests to determine treatment effects on MDD incidence and repeated measures models to determine treatment effects on PHQ-9.
Results:11.1% had subthreshold depression, 60.8% had ≥1 high-risk factors, MDD incidence=4.7% (5.0% among completers), and mean PHQ-9 change=0.02 points. Among those with subthreshold depression, the MDD risk ratio (95% confidence intervals)=0.36 (0.06 to 1.28) for vitamin D3 and 0.85 (0.25 to 2.92) for omega-3s, compared to placebos; results were also null among those with ≥1 high-risk factors [vitamin D3 vs. placebo: 0.63 (0.25 to 1.53); omega-3s vs. placebo: 1.08 (0.46 to 2.71)]. There were no significant differences in PHQ-9 change comparing either supplement with placebo.
Conclusion:Neither vitamin D3 nor omega-3s showed benefits for indicated and selective prevention of late-life depression; statistical power was limited.

Background
Homocysteine-lowering nutrients may have preventive/ameliorative roles in depression.
AimsTo test whether long-term B-vitamin/folate supplementation reduces depression risk.
MethodParticipants were 4331 women (mean age 63.6 years), without prior depression, from the Women's Antioxidant and Folic Acid Cardiovascular Study – a randomised controlled trial of cardiovascular disease prevention among 5442 women. Participants were randomly assigned to receive a combination of folic acid (2.5mg/d), vitamin B6 (50mg/d) and vitamin B12 (1 mg/d) or a matching placebo. Average treatment duration was 7 years. The outcome was incident depression, defined as self-reported physician/clinician-diagnosed depression or clinically significant depressive symptoms.
ResultsThere were 524 incident cases. There was no difference between active v. placebo groups in depression risk (adjusted relative risk 1.02, 95% CI 0.86–1.21, P = 0.81), despite significant homocysteine level reduction.
ConclusionsLong-term, high-dose, daily supplementation with folic acid and vitamins B6 and B12 did not reduce overall depression risk in mid-life and older women.
