Kayahan Satış N, Naharcı Mİ. Investigating the association of anticholinergic burden with depression in older adults: a cross-sectional study. Psychogeriatrics 2024; 24:597-604. [PMID: 38484758 DOI: 10.1111/psyg.13102] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2023] [Revised: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 02/15/2024] [Indexed: 04/30/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although depression and anticholinergic drug use are common comorbidities that impair health status in later life, there are insufficient data on their relationship. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between depressive symptoms and anticholinergic use in older individuals. METHODS Community-dwelling older adults (≥65 years) admitted to the tertiary referral geriatric outpatient clinic were included. Participants were evaluated for depressive symptoms using the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) with a cut-off score of ≥6 for depression. Exposure to anticholinergic drugs was assessed using the anticholinergic cognitive burden (ACB) scale and three subgroups were created: ACB = 0, ACB = 1, and ACB ≥ 2. The relationship between these two parameters was assessed using multivariate logistic regression analysis considering other potential variables. RESULTS The study included 1232 participants (mean age 78.4 ± 7.2 years and 65.2% female) and the prevalence of depression was 24%. After adjusting for potential confounders, compared to ACB = 0, having ACB ≥ 2 was related to depression symptoms (odds ratio (OR): 1.56, 95% CI: 1.04-2.35, P = 0.034), whereas having ACB = 1 did not increase the risk (OR: 1.27, 95% CI: 0.88-1.83, P = 0.205). CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that special attention should be paid to drug therapy in preventing depression in older adults, as exposure to a high anticholinergic load is negatively associated with psychological status.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Peyronie's disease (PD) can have an immense psychological impact, with depression being a reported possible, severe consequence. To date, no literature reviews have systematically and critically assessed the relationship between PD and depression. OBJECTIVES The study sought to identify and critically appraise the current literature on the association between PD and depression. METHODS Studies had to address men with PD or probable PD and assess depression or depressive symptoms. Quantitative and qualitative, peer-reviewed, primary, empirical studies written in English or Danish were included. According to the guidelines for scoping reviews and the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses for Scoping Reviews) guideline, we performed a systematic review of PubMed, PsycINFO, Embase, CINAHL, the Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. Reference lists of included studies were screened for additional sources. Gray literature was searched for in Google Scholar and Bielefeld Academic Search Engine. Data were charted using a data extraction form, and critical appraisal was performed using the QuADS (quality assessment with diverse studies) tool. RESULTS Thirteen studies were included. Most studies had a cross-sectional design, and also cohort studies and longitudinal observational studies without a control group were found. Depression was assessed mainly by validated questionnaires or diagnostic codes. Questionnaire studies found a prevalences of moderate to severe depression of 24% to 48%, while studies using diagnostic codes found depression in 4% to 37% of men with PD. The quality of the included studies varied from 38% to 82% of the maximum possible score in the QuADS assessment. CONCLUSION While most studies describe an association between PD and depression, the evidence is not comprehensive. The current literature is especially at risk of selection bias and the influence of confounding factors, and a direct causality between PD and depression cannot be established. Future research calls for more methodically rigorous studies as well as qualitative studies to understand the relationship.

Investigating Digital Patient-Reported Outcome Measures in Patient-Centered Diabetes Specialist Outpatient Care (DigiDiaS): Protocol for a Multimethod Prospective Observational Study. JMIR Res Protoc 2024; 13:e52766. [PMID: 38441955 PMCID: PMC10951827 DOI: 10.2196/52766] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 03/07/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Living with type 1 diabetes is challenging, and to support self-management, repeated consultations in specialist outpatient care are often required. The emergence of new digital solutions has revolutionized how health care services can be patient centered, providing unprecedented opportunities for flexible, high-quality care. However, there is a lack of studies exploring how the use of digital patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) for flexible specialist care affects diabetes self-management. To provide new knowledge on the relevance of using PROMs in standard care, we have designed a multimethod prospective study. OBJECTIVE The overall aim of this protocol is to describe our prospective multimethod observational study designed to investigate digital PROMs in a routine specialist outpatient setting for flexible patient-centered diabetes care (DigiDiaS). METHODS This protocol outlines the design of a multimethod prospective observational cohort study that includes data from electronic health records, self-reported questionnaires, clinical consultation field observations, and individual in-depth interviews with patients and diabetes health care personnel. All patients with type 1 diabetes at a designated outpatient clinic were invited to participate and use the digital PROM implemented in clinical care. Both users and nonusers of the digital PROM were eligible for the prospective study, allowing for a comparison of the two groups. Data were collected at baseline and after 12 months, including self-management as the primary outcome assessed using the Patient Activation Measure, along with the secondary outcomes of digital health literacy, quality of life, health economy, and clinical variables such as glycated hemoglobin. RESULTS The digital solution was implemented for routine clinical care in the department in November 2021, and data collection for the prospective study started in October 2022. As of September 6, 2023, 84.6% (186/220) of patients among those in the digital PROM and 15.5% (34/220) of patients among the nonusers have consented to participate. We expect the study to have enough participants by the autumn of 2023. With 1 year of follow-up, the results are expected by spring 2025. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, a multimethod prospective observational cohort study can offer valuable insights into the relevance, effectiveness, and acceptability of digital tools using PROMs in diabetes specialist care. Such knowledge is crucial for achieving broad and successful implementation and use of these tools in a large diabetes outpatient clinic.

Abstract
Diabetes affects men and women differently and the mistaken assumption of equality in its clinical expression can lead to errors and delays in the diagnostic process and the therapeutic strategy adopted. The objective is to show the gender differences that influence the approach to this pathology and what the role of the family doctor is in the monitoring of women with diabetes. It is a review of the impact of diabetes at different stages of a woman's life, how hormonal changes affect glycemic control, gestational diabetes, how diabetes affects the development of chronic complications in women and their consequences, the existing differences in the control of cardiovascular risk factors and the differential aspects by sex of the different families of drugs used in the treatment of diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression is a common mental health disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. Globally, major depressive disorder (MDD) is a public health concern; nearly, it affects more than 300 million people. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic lockdown, travel restrictions, social distancing, and COVID-19 vaccine acceptance have aggravated psychological disorders, such as depression and suicidal tendencies. Treatment-resistant depression (TRD) is typically defined as a lack of response to at least two different antidepressant medications or psychotherapies. TRD is common and has been associated with higher comorbidities and prolonged duration of illness, leading to a substantial medical and economic burden. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cross-sectional study was designed to determine the epidemiology and estimate the prevalence of TRD in Abha City, Assir Region, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The study includes adult patients who were attended to the psychiatry department and aged 18-65 years diagnosed with major depressive depression. A total of 651 study participants were recruited. RESULTS Of the total 651 depressive disorder cases, 134 (20.6%) were reported as TRD and the remaining 517 (79.4%) were nontreatment-resistant depressive cases. Of the 651 depression participants, 176 (27%) were males and 475 (73%) were females. More than one-quarter (180 (28%)) had been associated with chronic morbidity. One-tenth of the depressive patients were suffering from thyroid disorders, followed by hypertension (10%), autoimmune diseases (10%), and diabetes mellitus (8%). CONCLUSIONS TRD emerged as a threat to public health and challenging psychiatric care providers, and further innovative techniques and effective newer drugs to treat depression need to be researched. The treatment complaint mechanism is warranted, encouraging people to get treatment from the psychiatrist by removing the stigma of mental illness, which is needed to improve the quality of life of TRD patients.

Abstract
Psychological aspects of rehabilitation nutrition affect physical, cognitive, and social rehabilitation nutrition. When depression is recognized, not only pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy, but also non-pharmacological therapies such as exercise, nutrition, psychosocial, and other interventions can be expected to improve depression. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and intervention without overlooking depression is important. Psychological aspects of preventive rehabilitation nutrition is also important because depression can be partially prevented by appropriate exercise and nutritional management. Even in the absence of psychological negatives, increasing more psychological positives from a positive psychology perspective can be useful for both patients and healthcare professionals. Positive rehabilitation nutrition interventions can increase more psychological positives, such as well-being, through cognitive-behavioral therapy and mindfulness on their own, as well as through interventions on environmental factors. Consequently, physical, cognitive, and social positives are also expected to be enhanced.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus and depression rank among the leading causes of disease burden and are present in the top ten causes of disability-adjusted life years worldwide. Numerous studies have shown that both depression and diabetes have a detrimental effect on the quality of life, and when they coexist, the effect is considerably worse. This study aimed to analyse how grip strength moderates the relationship between diabetes and depressive symptoms among middle-aged and older adults. In total, 41,701 participants (18,003 men) in wave 8 of the cross-sectional population-based Survey of Health, Ageing, and Retirement in Europe (2019/2020) data were studied. A dynamometer was used to test grip strength twice on each hand. Depressive symptoms were measured using the 12-item EURO-D scale. The relationship between diabetes and depressive symptoms is negatively moderated by grip strength (male: B = -0.03, 95% CI = -0.04, -0.03; female: B = -0.06, 95% CI = -0.07, -0.06). Furthermore, the significant zone grip strength moderation values for males and females were less than 48.7 kg and 38.9 kg, respectively. Muscular strength was a moderator of depressive symptoms, attenuating its association with diabetes. This supports the premise that physical activity, namely muscle-strengthening exercises, should be included in diabetes treatment programs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) and depression are leading global public health problems associated with profound disability and lower quality of life. Extensive evidence suggests that the two disorders are frequently comorbid. However, long-term effects such as the risk of mortality due to depression among people living with T2D are not well explored. METHODS Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 2005-2010 were linked with mortality files from the National Death Index up to December 31st, 2019. RESULTS A total of 14,920 American adults were included in the study sample; nearly a tenth of them had depression (9.08 %) or T2D (10 %). In adjusted analysis, individuals with T2D were 1.70 times more likely (95 % CI = 1.42-2.03) to die than those without T2D. Among people living with T2D without depression, the risk of mortality was 1.55 times higher, but those with both T2D and depression had a 4.24 times higher risk of mortality. CONCLUSIONS Given the greater risk of morbidity and premature mortality with cooccurring T2D and depression, widespread screening is warranted with a focus on high-risk groups. Integrated and collaborative care models can help address the psychosocial needs of people with T2D and should be widely implemented with the sensitization of clinicians and care teams in primary and specialist care for T2D.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures are increasingly used in clinical diabetes care to increase patient involvement and improve healthcare services. The objectives were to identify instruments used to measure PROs in outpatient diabetes clinics and to investigate the use of these PRO measures alongside the experiences of patients and healthcare personnel in a clinical setting. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A scoping review was conducted according to the framework of Arksey and O'Malley with scoping searches of Cinahl, EMBASE, Medline and Health and Psychosocial Instruments. Studies reporting on adults with diabetes in a clinical setting where the PRO measure response directly affected patient care were eligible for inclusion. RESULTS In total, 35 197 citations were identified, of which 7 reports presenting 4 different PRO measures were included in the review. All four of the included items measured psychosocial aspects of diabetes, and three included elements of the Problem Areas in Diabetes scale. All the patients were satisfied with the use of PRO measures in clinical care, whereas the level of satisfaction among healthcare personnel with PRO measures varied within and among studies. CONCLUSIONS The limited number of eligible studies in this review suggests that research on PRO measures for diabetes outpatient care is scarce. Patients welcome the opportunity to express their concerns through the systematic collection of PRO measures, and some healthcare personnel value the broader insight that PRO measures provide into the impact of diabetes on patients' lives. However, the heterogeneity among services and among patients challenges the implementation of PRO measures. Research is needed to explore how PRO measures in clinical outpatient care affect healthcare personnel workflow. REVIEW REGISTRATION https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/46AHC.

Abstract
AIMS It has been suggested that people with mental disorders have an elevated risk to acquire severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 and to be disproportionally affected by coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) once infected. We aimed to analyse the COVID-19 infection rate, course and outcome, including mortality and long COVID, in people with anxiety, depressive, neurodevelopmental, schizophrenia spectrum and substance use disorders relative to control subjects without these disorders. METHODS This study constitutes a preregistered systematic review and random-effects frequentist and Bayesian meta-analyses. Major databases were searched up until 27 June 2023. RESULTS Eighty-one original articles were included reporting 304 cross-sectional and prospective effect size estimates (median n per effect-size = 114837) regarding associations of interest. Infection risk was not significantly increased for any mental disorder that we investigated relative to samples of people without these disorders. The course of COVID-19, however, is relatively severe, and long COVID and COVID-19-related hospitalization are more likely in all patient samples that we investigated. The odds of dying from COVID-19 were high in people with most types of mental disorders, except for those with anxiety and neurodevelopmental disorders relative to non-patient samples (pooled ORs range, 1.26-2.57). Bayesian analyses confirmed the findings from the frequentist approach and complemented them with estimates of the strength of evidence. CONCLUSIONS Once infected, people with pre-existing mental disorders are at an elevated risk for a severe COVID-19 course and outcome, including long COVID and mortality, relative to people without pre-existing mental disorders, despite an infection risk not significantly increased.

Isfandari S, Roosihermiatie B, Tuminah S, Mihardja LK. The risk associated with psychiatric disturbances in patients with diabetes in Indonesia (2018): a cross-sectional observational study. Osong Public Health Res Perspect 2023; 14:368-378. [PMID: 37920894 PMCID: PMC10626316 DOI: 10.24171/j.phrp.2023.0144] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2023] [Revised: 09/06/2023] [Accepted: 09/10/2023] [Indexed: 11/04/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The global prevalence of psychiatric disturbances is rising, detrimentally affecting the quality of care and treatment outcomes for individuals, particularly those with diabetes.This study investigated the association of risk factors for psychiatric disturbances among productive-age patients with diabetes (ages 30-59 years), considering sociodemographic characteristics and co-existing diseases. The risk factors considered included sociodemographic factors (e.g., residence, age, sex, marital status, education, and occupation) and co-existing diseases (e.g., hypertension, heart disease, stroke, renal failure, rheumatism, asthma, and cancer). METHODS This cross-sectional study utilized data from the 2018 Indonesian National Health Survey (Riskesdas). The study population comprised respondents aged between 30 and 59 years who had diabetes and had completed the 20-question self-reporting questionnaire (SRQ-20). After the exclusion of incomplete SRQ-20 data, the sample included 8,917 respondents. Data were analyzed using logistic regression. RESULTS Approximately 18.29% of individuals with diabetes displayed symptoms indicative of psychiatric disturbances. After adjusting for sociodemographic factors such as age, sex, education level, occupation, marital status, and place of residence, patients with diabetes who had co-existing conditions such as hypertension, heart diseases, rheumatic disorders, asthma, or cancer had a higher risk for developing psychiatric disturbances than those with diabetes alone (adjusted odds ratio, 6.67; 95% confidence interval, 4.481-9.928; p<0.001). CONCLUSION The elevated risk of psychiatric disturbances among patients with diabetes who had comorbidities underscores the importance of addressing mental health issues in the management of diabetes, especially in patients with concurrent disease conditions.

Exploring the risk of glycemic variability in non-diabetic depressive individuals: a cross-sectional GlyDep pilot study. Front Psychiatry 2023; 14:1196866. [PMID: 37779632 PMCID: PMC10541025 DOI: 10.3389/fpsyt.2023.1196866] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Data on the correlation between glycemic variability and depression in nondiabetic patients remain limited. Considering the link between increased glycemic variability and cardiovascular risks, this relationship could be significant in depressed patients. Methods In this single-center pilot study, we utilized Flash Glucose Monitoring (Abbott Libre Pro) to study glycemic variability. The CES-D (Center for Epidemiological Studies- Depression) scale was employed to measure depression levels. Based on CES-D scores, patients were classified into two groups: those with scores ≥ 33 and those with scores < 33. We analyzed various glycemic variability indices, including HBGI, CONGA, ADDR, MAGE, MAG, LI, and J-Index, employing the EasyGV version 9.0 software. SPSS (version 28) facilitated the data analysis. Results We screened patients with depression visiting the department of psychiatry, FGM was inserted in eligible patients of both the groups which yielded a data of 196 patient-days (98 patient-days for CES-D ≥ 33 and 98 patient-days for CES-D < 33). The glycemic variability indices CONGA (mg/dl), (76.48 ± 11.9 vs. 65.08 ± 7.12) (p = 0.048), MAGE (mg/dl) (262.50 ± 25.65 vs. 227.54 ± 17.72) (p = 0.012), MODD (mg/dl) (18.59 ± 2.77 vs. 13.14 ± 2.39) (p = 0.002), MAG(mg/dl) (92.07 ± 6.24vs. 63.86 ± 9.38) (p = <0.001) were found to be significantly higher in the CES-D ≥ 33 group. Conclusion Patients with more severe depressive symptoms, as suggested by CES-D ≥ 33, had higher glycemic variability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We sought to examine the mediating role of changes in depressive symptoms in the association between chronic hyperglycemia and longitudinal cognition in a sample of older adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We conducted a longitudinal mediation analysis using structural equation modeling of observational data collected over 6 years from 2,155 participants with T2D (aged ≥51 years) in the U.S.-wide Health and Retirement Study. T2D was defined using self-reported diagnosis, and HbA1c was assessed at study baseline. Self-reported depressive symptoms were assessed at two time points 4 years apart. Episodic memory was measured using a list-learning test administered at three time points over 6 years. We adjusted for sociodemographics, chronic health comorbidities, medication adherence, study enrollment year, and prior years' depressive symptoms and memory scores. RESULTS At baseline, participants' mean age was 69.4 (SD = 9.1), mean HbA1c was 7.2% (SD = 1.4%), 55.0% were women, 19.3% were non-Latinx Black, and 14.0% were Latinx. Higher baseline levels of HbA1c were associated with increases in depressive symptoms over 4 years, which, in turn, were associated with poorer memory 2 years later. Depressive symptoms accounted for 19% of the longitudinal effect of HbA1c on memory over the 6-year period. Sensitivity analyses ruled out alternative directions of associations. CONCLUSIONS Incident elevations in depressive symptoms mediated the longitudinal association between hyperglycemia and 6-year episodic memory scores. For older adults with T2D, interventions to prevent HbA1c-related incident depressive symptoms may be beneficial in reducing the neurotoxic effects of chronic hyperglycemia on cognition.

Supplementary data analyses for the associations of child maltreatment and diabetes in adulthood and the mediating effect of personality functioning. Data Brief 2023; 49:109441. [PMID: 37577744 PMCID: PMC10415691 DOI: 10.1016/j.dib.2023.109441] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2022] [Revised: 06/27/2023] [Accepted: 07/18/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023] Open
Abstract
In this article, supplementary data analyses regarding the association between different types of child maltreatment (CM) and diabetes as well as mediation analyses examining the role of personality functioning are provided (original research article: 'Associations of different types of child maltreatment and diabetes in adulthood - the mediating effect of personality functioning: findings from a population-based representative German sample') (Zara et al., 2023). Analyses are based on a representative sample of the German population (N = 5,041). Data was acquired through a representative survey conducted by the independent research institute USUMA Berlin. CM, personality functioning, a diabetes diagnosis as well as symptoms of depression and anxiety were assessed using self-report questionnaires (CTQ, OPD-SQS, PHQ-4). Correlation analyses for all used variables were conducted. Independent t-tests were performed to examine whether symptoms of depression and anxiety are elevated in patients with diabetes and CM (compared to no CM). Regarding the odd ratios (ORs) calculated to examine the association between types of CM and diabetes as well as mediation analyses investigating the role of personality functioning in these associations, sensitivity analyses with persons ≥ 30 years are provided. The additional analyses are intended to add to the body of research showing that patients with diabetes experience symptoms of depression and anxiety more frequently compared to the general population (Kampling and Kruse, 2020; Chireh et al., 2019; Smith et al., 2018), examine the association between different types of CM and diabetes, and explore the role of personality functioning in the association between CM and diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adipokines are considered to be involved in the pathogenesis of diabetes and depression. The associations of serum levels of leptin and irisin with depressive symptoms were investigated in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). METHODS 189 elderly diabetics were assessed with the 30-item Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-30), and 57 patients with depressive symptoms and 132 controls were selected. Blood biochemical parameters, including serum irisin and leptin, were measured. RESULTS Serum irisin levels were decreased and leptin concentrations were significantly higher in T2DM patients with depressive symptoms compared to controls. In all subjects, the irisin level was inversely correlated with the leptin level and the GDS-30 score, whereas the leptin level was highly correlated with BMI and the GDS-30 score. Higher levels of leptin and lower concentrations of irisin are, among other factors, variables indicative of predictive capacity for depressive symptoms in elderly patients with T2DM. CONCLUSIONS The results indicated that irisin and leptin levels may be used as diagnostic markers of depressive symptoms in diabetic, elderly patients and as potential therapeutic targets for the treatment. Further prospective and more extensive studies are needed to clarify the role of these adipokines in the common pathogenesis of depression and diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The importance of screening type-1 diabetic patients in Saudi Arabia is related to a high incidence rate of diabetes mellitus (DM) and the susceptibility to developing depression during or after the diagnosis. The objectives of the present study were to establish the relationship between type-1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), depression, and depression risk among Saudi patients; estimating the prevalence and examining the relationship of depression with duration of diagnosis, the effect of glycemic control, and the presence of comorbidities. METHODS For this observational retrospective chart review, an analytical tool was used. The population of our study comprised Saudi patients with T1DM at King Khaled University Hospital, Riyadh. Data were collected from the hospital's electronic medical records. A depression screening tool (Patient Health Questionnaire "PHQ-9") was used to measure the depression risk of the diabetic patients, who had not been assessed before. The SPSS program was used to analyze the data. RESULTS The present study included 167 males (~45.75%) and 198 females (~54.25%). Patients with a normal body mass index (BMI) constituted 52%, while 21% were underweight, 19% were overweight, and 9% were obese. The investigators randomly selected 120 patients from the total of 365, and called them to assess their risk of developing depression. The results of the depression assessment were as follows: positive, 17 patients out of 22 (77.27%); negative, five patients out of 22 (22.73%). In total, 75 out of 120 (62.50%) patients were at risk of developing depression, while 45 patients out of 120 (37.50%) were not at risk of depression. There was a relationship between glycemic non-control, comorbidities with depression, and risk of developing depression in DM. The presence of complications was associated with diabetic and depressed patients, and the risk of developing depression may be increased with T1DM. CONCLUSIONS To overcome the negative consequences of undiagnosed depression, screening for depression is recommended for patients with T1DM who have multiple comorbidities, glycemic non-control, diabetic complications, and unfavorable lifestyles, as well as those undergoing combination therapy with metformin.

Abstract
RATIONALE Conditions with sustained low-grade inflammation have high comorbidity with depression and anxiety and are associated with social withdrawal. The basolateral amygdala (BLA) is critical for affective and social behaviors and is sensitive to inflammatory challenges. Large systemic doses of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) initiate peripheral inflammation, increase BLA neuronal activity, and disrupt social and affective measures in rodents. However, LPS doses commonly used in behavioral studies are high enough to evoke sickness syndrome, which can confound interpretation of amygdala-associated behaviors. OBJECTIVES AND METHODS The objectives of this study were to find a LPS dose that triggers mild peripheral inflammation but not observable sickness syndrome in adult male rats, to test the effects of sustained mild inflammation on BLA and social behaviors. To accomplish this, we administered single doses of LPS (0-100 μg/kg, intraperitoneally) and measured open field behavior, or repeated LPS (5 μg/kg, 3 consecutive days), and measured BLA neuronal firing, social interaction, and elevated plus maze behavior. RESULTS Repeated low-dose LPS decreased BLA neuron firing rate but increased the total number of active BLA neurons. Repeated low-dose LPS also caused early disengagement during social bouts and less anogenital investigation and an overall pattern of heightened social caution associated with reduced gain of social familiarity over the course of a social session. CONCLUSIONS These results provide evidence for parallel shifts in social interaction and amygdala activity caused by prolonged mild inflammation. This effect of inflammation may contribute to social symptoms associated with comorbid depression and chronic inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Diabetes is a growing health concern. An update on epidemiology and health outcomes is mandatory to devise strategies to alleviate the burden of diabetes. The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of diabetes and associated complications in France in 2017. METHODS Demographics and healthcare data from a representative permanent secondary database were analyzed. Patients with at least 2 national health insurance payments for anti-diabetic drugs in 2017 were selected, with the index date set to the last payment date. Patients were grouped as diabetes treated with insulin only (DTi), diabetes treated with anti-diabetic drugs other than only insulin (DT2) or gestational diabetes. Comorbidities, diabetes-related complications and hospital admissions, healthcare consumption and medical follow-up were extracted for a 5- or 2-year period prior to the index date and summarized using descriptive statistics. RESULTS Overal, 29,288 patients were included in the study population: 1964 (6.7%) were categorized as DTi and 27,243 (93.0%) as DT2. Patients with gestational diabetes (81 [0.3%]) are not further described here. Prevalence was estimated at 4.9%. For DT2, marked geographic disparities were observed, with prevalence being highest in the northeast France. Diabetes-related complications were more frequent in DTi than in DT2 over a 5-year period (52.2% vs 34.7%). Diabetes-related admissions were also more common in DTi than in DT2 over a 2-year period (29.8% vs 16.9%). In the DT2 category, another antidiabetic drug was added during the 3 months prior to the index date in 16.5% of cases overall and in 25% of patients with recent hospital admission or diabetes-related complications. Although more than 80% of patients in the DTi and DT2 categories had at least 1 healthcare consultation during 2 years prior to the index date, only 10% to 20% of patients complied with guidelines for all 5 recommended examinations. CONCLUSIONS Prevalence of diabetes is high in the French population, while compliance with recommended healthcare consultations falls short of the 80% goal set by regulations. New strategies are mandatory in order to reduce the burden of diabetes-related complications and admissions, focusing on patient and physician information and education in order to increase proactive treatment adjustment and reduce therapeutic inertia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The prevalence of diabetes is increasing in older people. With increasing age, frailty emerges as a new complication leading to disability. Frailty does not only include physical dysfunction but also involves negative impact on cognition and mood. Triad of impairments (TOI) is a new concept that includes physical frailty, dementia and depression to reflect the wider spectrum of frailty. AREAS COVERED Little is known about effects of hypoglycaemic agents on frailty syndrome. A literature search was performed on studies, which reported effects of hypoglycaemic agents on the component of the TOI. EXPERT OPINION It appears that most hypoglycaemic agents have some effects on frailty, although the results of clinical studies are inconsistent. Metformin seems to have a consistent and a positive effect on physical frailty. Its effects on cognitive function, however, are inconclusive but tend to be positive. Metformin appeared to improve depressive symptoms. Other agents such as incretins, thiazolidinediones, and sodium glucose transporter-2 inhibitors have some positive effects on cognition and depression. Sulfonylureas, glinides, or insulin have either negative or neutral effects on TOI components. The negative effects of insulin could be partially explained by the negative psychological factors and the frequent episodes of hypoglycemia associated with such therapy.

Supports and Interventions for Carers of a Person with Depressive or Anxiety Symptomology: A Systematic Review. EUROPES JOURNAL OF PSYCHOLOGY 2022; 18:476-493.

Abstract
An increasing body of research attests to the capacity of evidence-based interventions to improve outcomes for informal carers. A review of suitable supports and interventions for carers of a person with depressive or anxiety symptomology is timely. This systematic review explores intervention suitability evidence for this carer group. Searches for relevant primary studies were conducted in six databases across a 15-year timeframe (October 2004-October 2019). Studies were assessed and compared narratively and thematically. Qualitative themes were synthesised with quantitative studies to explore the extent to which carer preferences were embedded in interventions. The initial literature search produced 13,183 studies. Six studies-three randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and three mixed-method studies-were included following a double-blinded screening process, a review of reference lists and risk of bias assessment. Included studies contributed either intervention efficacy or acceptability evidence. The synthesis of qualitative themes with quantitative studies found that carer-specific needs and targeted psychoeducation were featured in interventions from all six quantitative studies. Current evidence for appropriate supports and interventions for this carer group is limited. The review uncovers a lack of interventions for carers of a person with anxiety symptomology and limited intervention suitability evidence for carers of a person with depressive symptomology. More research is needed to explore the needs and preferences of this carer group, and how best to support them.

Adapting a Patient-Reported Outcome Measure to Digital Outpatient Specialist Health Care Services for Type 1 Diabetes: User Involvement Study. JMIR Hum Factors 2022; 9:e38678. [DOI: 10.2196/38678] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2022] [Revised: 09/12/2022] [Accepted: 10/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background
Diabetes self-management is crucial for patients with type 1 diabetes, and digital services can support their self-management and facilitate flexible follow-up. The potential of using digital patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures in routine outpatient care is not fully used owing to a lack of adapted PRO measures.
Objective
This study presents the process of identifying and adapting a digital PRO measure for use in clinical diabetes practice and describes the preferred item topics of the adapted PRO measure, as reported by patients and diabetes specialist nurses.
Methods
With the involvement of patients, diabetes specialist nurses, management, and researchers, we hosted a series of workshops and 2 dialogue conferences. Scoping searches to identify relevant PRO measures formed the foundation for the process. An in-person dialogue conference was conducted with diabetes specialist nurses as participants, and a digital dialogue conference was conducted with patients with type 1 diabetes as participants. A diabetes-specific PRO measure was translated and adapted to our digital platform. Notes and summaries from the dialogue conferences were imported into NVivo (QSR International) and thematically analyzed as a single combined data set.
Results
The thematic analysis of the 2 dialogue conferences aimed to explore the views of patients with type 1 diabetes and diabetes specialist nurses on the outcomes necessary to measure. An overarching theme, Ensuring that the PRO measure captures the patients’ needs precisely and accurately, in a way that facilitates care and communication with health care personnel, was identified and supported with data from both the patients and diabetes specialist nurses. This theme contained four categories: The need for explanatory text after questions to ensure understanding and accurate response, Capturing individual needs in standardized questions, getting to the heart of the patient’s problem, and The questions increase patient reflection.
Conclusions
We successfully conducted an iterative process that identified a PRO measure aligned with the topics raised by the diabetes specialist nurses. Similarly, the patients found the PRO measure to be relevant and one that was addressing their needs. Only minor adjustments were necessary when programming the PRO measure in the digital platform. Our management, patients, and diabetes specialist nurses had a valuable impact on the results. User involvement facilitated a specific focus on the clinical requests to be met by PRO measures and how they must be adapted to local and digital platforms. Overall, this has facilitated the current implementation of the adapted digital PRO measure.

Depression in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is associated with an increased risk of complications and mortality. Front Med (Lausanne) 2022; 9:985803. [PMID: 36275825 PMCID: PMC9582593 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.985803] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and aims The global prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is expected to rise continuously. Furthermore, emerging evidence has also shown the potential for concomitant depression in NAFLD. This study aims to examine the prevalence, risk factors, and adverse events of depression in NAFLD and evaluate whether treated depression can reverse the increased risks of adverse outcomes. Materials and methods This study analyses the 2000–2018 cycles of NHANES that examined liver steatosis with fatty liver index (FLI). The relationship between NAFLD and depression was assessed with a generalized linear mix model and a sensitivity analysis was conducted in the no depression, treated depression, and untreated depression groups. Survival analysis was conducted with cox regression and fine gray sub-distribution model. Results A total of 21,414 patients were included and 6,726 were diagnosed with NAFLD. The risk of depression in NAFLD was 12% higher compared to non-NAFLD individuals (RR: 1.12, CI: 1.00–1.26, p = 0.04). NAFLD individuals with depression were more likely to be older, females, Hispanics or Caucasians, diabetic, and have higher BMI. Individuals with depression have high risk for cardiovascular diseases (CVD) (RR: 1.40, CI: 1.25–1.58, p < 0.01), stroke (RR: 1.71, CI: 1.27–2.23, p < 0.01), all-cause mortality (HR: 1.50, CI: 1.25–1.81, p < 0.01), and cancer-related mortality (SHR: 1.43, CI: 1.14–1.80, p = 0.002) compared to NAFLD individuals without depression. The risk of CVD, stroke, all-cause mortality, and cancer-related mortality in NAFLD individuals with treated depression and depression with untreated treatment was higher compared to individuals without depression. Conclusion This study shows that concomitant depression in NAFLD patients can increase the risk of adverse outcomes. Early screening of depression in high-risk individuals should be encouraged to improve the wellbeing of NAFLD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) causes significant morbidity and mortality. Compared with non-Hispanic Whites, African Americans are more likely to suffer and die from T2DM. PURPOSE This study examines the associations between health literacy, illness perception, depression, working memory, executive function, and self-management among African Americans (18-65 years) with T2DM. METHODOLOGY A descriptive cross-sectional design was used. Data were collected through Research Electronic Data Capture and transferred to the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software version 26 for statistical analysis. Fifty-three participants met study eligibility criteria. RESULTS Health literacy was associated with depression ( r = -0.433, p = .003), more concerns about illness ( r = -0.357, p = .02), and better medication adherence ( r = 0.487, p = .001). Higher levels of depression were inversely associated with medication adherence ( r = -0.449, p = .002; r = 0.449, p = .003). Higher concern about illness was associated with lower medication adherence ( r = -0.414, p = .005). CONCLUSIONS Lower health literacy coupled with illness perception and depression is associated with lower self-management behaviors among African Americans which can lead to complications of T2DM. More studies are needed to examine the association of cognitive factors with self-management activities among African Americans with T2DM. IMPLICATIONS Limited health literacy is associated with lower medication adherence among African Americans with T2DM. Illness perception is a significant factor that influences self-management of T2DM among African Americans. Using screening tools that assess health literacy and illness perception may address underlying concerns regarding adherence to T2DM treatment regimens in African Americans.

Capturing Diabetes-Related Distress and Burden From the Perspective of Patients With Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes: Protocol for an Explorative Mixed Methods Study. JMIR Res Protoc 2022; 11:e38477. [PMID: 35916703 PMCID: PMC9379798 DOI: 10.2196/38477] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2022] [Revised: 07/11/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes is one of the most common diseases worldwide and is associated with increased morbidity, mortality, and reduced quality of life. Many patients experience high diabetes-related distress as well as depression and anxiety symptoms, which are associated with poor diabetes self-management. As disease management is a central component in diabetes treatment, poor management enhances the occurrence of micro- and macrovascular complications. This emphasizes the relevance of reducing diabetes-related distress and providing adequate treatment options addressing the individual psychosocial burden of patients with diabetes. Since patients' perspectives diverge significantly from those of practitioners in terms of relevant treatment aspects, the patient perspective on, for example, barriers to and facilitators of diabetes treatment is crucial for adequate and effective treatment as well as improvements to self-management and therefore, needs to be further explored. OBJECTIVE This study aims to examine diabetes-related distress, the course of distress throughout diabetes management, as well as barriers and facilitating factors in dealing with diabetes from the individual perspective of patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. METHODS The study employs a mixed methods design combining qualitative and quantitative data. Semistructured interviews (N=40) will be conducted with patients with type 1 diabetes (n=20) and patients with type 2 diabetes (n=20). The primary outcomes comprise (1) diabetes-related distress, (2) the severity of distress, (3) the course of distress throughout diabetes management, (4) barriers, and (5) facilitating factors. Questionnaires will provide data on the following secondary outcomes: diabetes-related emotional distress (the Problem Areas in Diabetes scale), symptoms of depression and anxiety (Patient Health Questionnaire, German version), personality functioning (Operationalized Psychodynamic Diagnosis-Structure Questionnaire), mentalizing capacities (Mentalization Questionnaire), epistemic trust (Epistemic Trust, Mistrust and Credulity Questionnaire) and experiences of child maltreatment (Childhood Trauma Questionnaire), and the overall health status of the patient (routine medical data). RESULTS As of April 2022, the conceptualization phase of the study was finalized. Ethics approval was received in January 2022 from the local ethics committee of the Justus Liebig University Giessen - Faculty of Medicine (AZ 161/21). CONCLUSIONS This study will provide insights into the individual perspective of patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes regarding their experiences with diabetes management and what they perceive to be relevant, obstructive, or beneficial. The insights gained could help further tailor diabetes treatment to the individual needs of patients with diabetes and therefore optimize diabetes self-management.

Psychoneuroendocrinology 2022; 140:105711. [PMID: 35305406 DOI: 10.1016/j.psyneuen.2022.105711] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2021] [Revised: 03/02/2022] [Accepted: 03/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
Apelin is a small peptide secreted by the adipose tissue notably in conditions of obesity-induced hyper-insulinemia. Apelin exerts a range of physiological functions at the periphery including the improvement of insulin sensitivity and the increase of muscle strength or cardiac contractibility. Interestingly, the brain is endowed with a high density of APJ, the single target of apelin, and growing evidence suggests various central actions of this adipokine. Recent studies reported that the intracerebroventricular infusion of apelin modulates emotional states in middle age stressed animals. However, results are so far been mixed and have not allowed for definitive conclusions about the impact of apelin on anxio-depressive-like phenotype. This study aims 1) to evaluate whether serum apelin levels are associated with mood in older adults and 2) to determine the impact of the genetic apelin inactivation in 12-month old mice fed a standard diet (STD) or in 6-month old mice fed a high fat diet (HFD). A higher plasma apelin level was associated with higher depressive symptoms in older adults. In line with these clinical findings, 12-month old apelin knock-out (Ap-/-) mice displayed a spontaneous antidepressant-like phenotype. In a marked contrast, 6-month old Ap-/- mice harbored a higher degree of peripheral insulin resistance than wild-types in response to HFD and were more prone to develop anxiety while the depressive-like state was not modified. We also provided evidence that such anxious behavior was associated with an impairment of central serotonergic and dopaminergic neuronal activities. Finally, although the insulin sensitizing drug metformin failed to reverse HFD-induced insulin resistance in 6-month old Ap-/- mice, it reversed their anxious phenotype. These results emphasize a complex contribution of apelin in the regulation of emotional state that might depend on the age and the metabolic status of the animals. Further investigations are warranted to highlight the therapeutic potential of manipulating the apelinergic system in mood-related disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A bidirectional association between depression and diabetes exists, but has not been evaluated in the context of immigrant status. Given that social determinants of health differ between immigrants and nonimmigrants, we evaluated the association between diabetes and depression incidence, depression and diabetes incidence, and whether immigrant status modified this association, among immigrants and nonimmigrants in Canada. METHODS We employed a retrospective cohort design using data from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging Comprehensive cohort (baseline [2012-2015] and 3-year follow-up [2015-2018]). We defined participants as having diabetes if they self-reported it or if their glycated hemoglobin A1c level was 7% or more; we defined participants as having depression if their Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression score was 10 or higher or if they were currently undergoing depression treatment. We excluded those with baseline depression (Cohort 1) and baseline diabetes (Cohort 2) to evaluate the associations between diabetes and depression incidence, and between depression and diabetes incidence, respectively. We constructed logistic regression models with interaction by immigrant status. RESULTS Cohort 1 (n = 20 723; mean age 62.7 yr, standard deviation [SD] 10.1 yr; 47.6% female) included 3766 (18.2%) immigrants. Among immigrants, 16.4% had diabetes, compared with 15.6% among nonimmigrants. Diabetes was associated with an increased risk of depression in nonimmigrants (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 1.27, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.08-1.49), but not in immigrants (adjusted OR 1.12, 95% CI 0.80-1.56). Younger age, female sex, weight change, poor sleep quality and pain increased depression risk. Cohort 2 (n = 22 054; mean age 62.1 yr, SD 10.1 yr; 52.2% female) included 3913 (17.7%) immigrants. Depression was associated with an increased risk of diabetes in both nonimmigrants (adjusted OR 1.39, 95% CI 1.16-1.68) and immigrants (adjusted OR 1.60, 95% CI 1.08-2.37). Younger age, male sex, waist circumference, weight change, hypertension and heart disease increased diabetes risk. INTERPRETATION We found an overall bidirectional association between diabetes and depression that was not significantly modified by immigrant status. Screening for diabetes for people with depression and screening for depression for those with diabetes should be considered.

Abstract
Depression is a common comorbidity of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). T2DM with comorbid depression increases the risk of cardiovascular events and death. Depression and T2DM and its macrovascular complications exhibited a two-way relationship. Regarding treatment, antidepressants can affect the development of T2DM and cardiovascular events, and hypoglycemic drugs can also affect the development of depression and cardiovascular events. The combination of these two types of medications may increase the risk of the first myocardial infarction. Herein, we review the latest research progress in the exacerbation of cardiovascular disease due to T2DM with comorbid depression and provide a rationale and an outlook for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease in T2DM with comorbid depression.

Abstract
AIMS Depression in type 2 diabetes may heavily affect the course of the disease. In this study, we investigated, among new cases with type 2 diabetes, the incidence and clinical predictors of depression and determined the extent to which depression constitutes a risk factor for acute and long-term diabetes complications and mortality. METHODS In this population-based retrospective cohort study, incident cases of type 2 diabetes without a prior history of depression were identified from the administrative databases of the Emilia-Romagna Region, Italy, between 2008 and 2017 and followed up until 2020. Logistic regression models were used to identify the predictors of depression. Cox regression models were used to estimate the risk of acute complications over three years, and the risk of long-term complications and mortality over ten years. RESULTS Incident cases with type 2 diabetes were 30,815, of whom 5146 (16.7%) developed depression. The predictors of depression onset were as follows: female sex, age > 65 years, living in rural areas and comorbid diseases. Depression in type 2 diabetes was associated with a 2.3-fold risk of developing acute complications, 1.6-fold risk of developing long-term complications and 2.8-fold mortality risk. CONCLUSIONS Our findings highlight that depression is associated with an increased risk for complications in type 2 diabetes and mortality and should not be neglected. Therefore, it is important to promote screening activities and introduce targeted and personalized treatment for depression in order to reduce the risk of poor short- and long-term outcomes of diabetes.

Hoirisch-Clapauch S. Mechanisms affecting brain remodeling in depression: do all roads lead to impaired fibrinolysis? Mol Psychiatry 2022; 27:525-533. [PMID: 34404914 DOI: 10.1038/s41380-021-01264-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2021] [Revised: 07/28/2021] [Accepted: 08/04/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Fibrinolysis occurs when plasminogen activators, such as tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), convert plasminogen to plasmin, which dissolves the fibrin clot. The proteolytic activity of tPA and plasmin is not restricted to fibrin degradation. In the extravascular space, these two proteases modify a variety of substrates other than fibrin, playing a crucial role in physiological and pathological tissue remodeling. In the brain, for example, tPA and plasmin mediate the conversion of brain-derived neurotrophic factor precursor (proBDNF) to mature brain-derived neurotrophic factor precursor (BDNF). Thus, the fibrinolytic system influences processes reported to be dysfunctional in depression, including neurogenesis, synaptic plasticity, and reward processing. The hypothesis that decreased fibrinolytic activity is an important element in the pathogenesis of depression is supported by the association between depression and increased levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1, the main inhibitor of tPA. Also, various biochemical markers of depression induce PAI-1 synthesis, including hypercortisolism, hyperinsulinemia, hyperleptinemia, increased levels of cytokines, and hyperhomocysteinemia. Moreover, hypofibrinolysis provides a link between depression and emotional eating, binge eating, vegetarianism, and veganism. This paper discusses the role of reduced fibrinolytic activity in the bidirectional interplay between depression and its somatic manifestations and complications. It also reviews evidence that abnormal fibrinolysis links heterogeneous conditions associated with treatment-resistant depression. Understanding the role of hypofibrinolysis in depression may open new avenues for its treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to construct and use natural language processing and other methods to analyze major depressive disorder (MDD) and radiology studies' publications in the PubMed database to understand the historical growth, current state, and potential expansion trend. METHODS All MDD radiology studies publications from January 2002 to January 2022 were downloaded from PubMed using R, a statistical computing language. R and the interpretive general-purpose programming language Python were used to extract publication dates, geographic information, and abstracts from each publication's metadata for bibliometric analysis. The generative statistical algorithm "Latent Dirichlet allocation" (LDA) was applied to identify specific research focus and trends. The unsupervised Leuven algorithm was used to build a network to identify relationships between research focus. RESULTS A total of 5,566 publications on MDD and radiology research were identified, and there is a rapid upward trend. The top-cited publications were 11,042, and the highly-cited publications focused on improving diagnostic performance and establishing imaging standards. Publications came from 76 countries, with the most from research institutions in the United States and China. Hospitals and radiology departments take the lead in research and have an advantage. The extensive field of study contains 12,058 Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) terms. Based on the LDA algorithm, three areas were identified that have become the focus of research in recent years, "Symptoms and treatment," "Brain structure and imaging," and "Comorbidities research." CONCLUSION Latent Dirichlet allocation analysis methods can be well used to analyze many texts and discover recent research trends and focus. In the past 20 years, the research on MDD and radiology has focused on exploring MDD mechanisms, establishing standards, and constructing imaging methods. Recent research focuses are "Symptoms and sleep," "Brain structure study," and "functional connectivity." New progress may be made in studies on MDD complications and the combination of brain structure and metabolism.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the association of major depressive disorder with chronic non-communicable diseases and multimorbidity in Brazilian adults, stratified by gender, as well as examine the interaction between gender and chronic non-communicable diseases in association with major depressive disorder. METHODS Based on a sample of 65,803 adults from the 2019 National Health Survey, we estimated the prevalence of major depressive disorder (≥10 points in the Patient Health Questionnaire) according to the presence of chronic non-communicable diseases and multimorbidity (≥2 chronic diseases). Prevalence ratios and their respective confidence intervals were calculated by Poisson regression, and multiplicative interaction terms were used to assess the role of gender in the associations. RESULTS The prevalence of major depressive disorder among Brazilian adults (18-59 years) was 10.9%, with a statistically significant difference between men (6.0%) and women (15.4%) (p<0.001). Individuals with any chronic non-communicable disease and multimorbidity showed a higher prevalence of major depressive disorder, both in the general population and in each gender. However, the association of major depressive disorder with chronic non-communicable diseases tended to be stronger among men. Data also showed an interaction between the male gender and multimorbidity or specific diseases, such as arthritis or rheumatism, heart disease, and chronic kidney disease, in association with major depressive disorder. CONCLUSION The results reveal a significant association between major depressive disorder and chronic non-communicable diseases in both genders and raise the hypothesis that the effects of multimorbidity and certain diseases may be greater on the mental health of men.

Abstract
People with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are more likely to have depression than the general population and their prognosis is worse. Unfortunately, the characteristics of persons with T1D lead to inadequate screening for depression in this population. To aid in the detection of depression in this population, this study was undertaken to develop a depressive symptoms assessment instrument specific to patients with T1D and to examine its psychometric properties. A total of 207 people with T1D participated in this study. The reliability of the new scale was assessed using Cronbach’s alpha and the Spearman-Brown split-half coefficient. The Depression Inventory for type 1 Diabetes (DID-1), composed of 45 items on a Likert scale (1–7), shows high internal and temporal consistency, as well as adequate concurrent, convergent and discriminant validity. Factor analysis identified 7 factors (Symptoms of depression, Diminished interest, Hopelessness and dissatisfaction, Guilt, Fear, frustration and irritability, Defenselessness, and Interference in daily life) that explained 61.612% of the total variability. The cut-off score for diagnosis was set at 155 points. It was concluded that the DID-1 scale is a reliable, valid and useful tool for the assessment of depressive symptoms, eliminating the bias of other nonspecific diabetes scales.

Abstract
Diabetes-depression comorbidity (DDC) adversely affects the quality of life of diabetic patients, complicates the clinical treatment and makes diabetes management very challenging. Therefore, early identification and diagnosis of DDC is crucial to prevent complications and improve the health outcomes among the diabetic patients. This work explores the association between demographic, lifestyle, social economic factors and DDC. The analysis is based on data obtained from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), USA. Logistic Regression was used to explore this association. Women were found to have higher odds of DDC as compared to men [OR 1.30, 95%CI(1.17-1.44), p <0.001]. Additionally, sedentary behaviour and lower socio-economic position was found to be associated with higher odds of DDC. Moreover, a gradient association was observed between socio-economic position (SEP) and DDC. The odds of DDC tend to reduce with improvement in SEP. Our findings underscore the importance of examining and addressing the disproportionate burden of DDC among the lower socio-economic groups.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Whether neurodegeneration contributes to the early pathobiology of late-life depression remains incompletely understood. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether lower retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, a marker of neurodegeneration, is associated with the incidence of clinically relevant depressive symptoms and depressive symptoms over time. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This is a population-based cohort study from the Netherlands (The Maastricht Study) with baseline examination between 2010 and 2020 and median (IQR) follow-up of 5.0 (3.0-6.0) years. Participants were recruited from the general population. Individuals with type 2 diabetes were oversampled by design. Data analysis was performed from September 2020 to January 2021. EXPOSURES RNFL, an index of neurodegeneration, assessed with optical coherence tomography. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Depressive symptoms were assessed with the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ)-9 (continuous score, 0-27) at baseline and over time via annual assessments. The presence of clinically relevant depressive symptoms was defined as a PHQ-9 score of 10 or higher. RESULTS We used data from 4934 participants with depressive symptoms over time (mean [SD] age, 59.7 [8.4] years; 2159 women [50.8%]; 870 had type 2 diabetes [20.5%]). Lower RNFL thickness was associated with higher incidence of clinically relevant depressive symptoms (per 1 SD, hazard ratio 1.11; 95% CI, 1.01-1.23) and more depressive symptoms over time (per 1 SD, rate ratio, 1.04; 95% CI, 1.01-1.06), after adjustment for demographic, cardiovascular, and lifestyle factors. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE The findings of this study suggest that lower RNFL thickness is associated with higher incidence of clinically relevant depressive symptoms and more depressive symptoms over time. Hence, neurodegeneration may be associated with the early pathobiology of late-life depression.

Influence of Vitamin D Supplementation on Mental Health in Diabetic Patients: A Systematic Review. Nutrients 2021; 13:nu13113678.

Abstract
Diabetes is associated with a number of mental health consequences, including enhanced risk of depression and anxiety, as well as decreased quality of life, and vitamin D deficiency is considered to be one of the factors that influence these outcomes in diabetic patients. The aim of the present study was to conduct a systematic review of the literature presenting the data regarding the influence of vitamin D supplementation on mental health in diabetic adults. This study was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) database (Registration number CRD42020155779). A systematic search of the PubMed and Web of Science databases was performed, and the intervention studies published until September 2021 were included in the review. The human studies were included if an adult sample of diabetic individuals received vitamin D supplementation during the intervention and its effect on any mental health aspect was assessed, but studies presenting the influence of combined supplementation of multiple nutrients were excluded. After removing duplicate records, a total of 8514 publications were screened and assessed independently by two researchers, based on their title, abstract, and full text. Finally, six studies were included in the current systematic review, and the risk of bias was evaluated using the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale (NOS). The included studies analyzed the influence of a specific dose of vitamin D, or different doses of vitamin D, or compared the results of supplementation with a specific dose of vitamin D against the placebo group. The supplementation was performed for at least 12 weeks. The mental health outcomes analyzed in these studies included health-related quality of life, depression, anxiety, stress, and general mental health status of adult diabetic patients. The results of the majority of the studies confirmed the positive influence of vitamin D supplementation on the mental health of diabetic individuals. Those studies that analyzed the influence of vitamin D supplementation on depression and anxiety established the beneficial effect of the vitamin. In some studies, the influence of vitamin D supplementation on the health-related quality of life was not considered unless combined with mindfulness training. However, it must be emphasized that different dosage regimens and intervention periods were followed in the reviewed studies, and only a small number of studies were randomized against placebo, which should be considered as a limitation of the present study. The findings of the conducted systematic review demonstrated the positive influence of vitamin D supplementation on the mental health of diabetic patients, which was proved for anxiety and depression, but in the case of health-related quality of life, the positive effect was observed only when the intervention included mindfulness training. These outcomes suggest that supplementation should be recommended to improve the vitamin D status and the mental health of patients in this group.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Previous studies on the diabetes-edentulism relationship have yielded conflicting results. Therefore, the goal of this study was to investigate the association between diabetes and edentulism, and their joint effects on health status in adults from 40 low and middle-income countries (LMICs). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Data from the World Health Survey were used for this cross-sectional study (2002-2004). Forty countries (18 low-income and 22 middle-income countries) were included. Edentulism and diabetes were assessed using yes-no questions based on self-report. Health status was assessed in seven different domains (self-care, pain/discomfort, cognition, interpersonal activities, sleep/energy, affect, and perceived stress). The association between diabetes (exposure) and edentulism (outcome) was analyzed using multivariable logistic regression models, while their joint effects on health status were assessed using multivariable linear regression models. RESULTS There were 175 814 adults aged ≥18 years included in this study (mean (SD) age 38.4 (16.0) years; 49.3% men). Overall, the prevalence of edentulism was 6.0% and diabetes was 2.9%. There was a positive and significant association between diabetes and edentulism in the overall sample (OR=1.40, 95% CI 1.18 to 1.66), in low-income countries (OR=1.78, 95% CI 1.21 to 2.62) and in middle-income countries (OR=1.24, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.47). In addition, people with comorbid diabetes and edentulism had worse health status in the domains of cognition, sleep/energy, and perceived stress, compared with those with diabetes only. CONCLUSIONS Diabetes was positively associated with edentulism in this sample of more than 175 000 individuals living in LMICs. Providing oral care to individuals with diabetes may potentially lead to a reduction in their risk of edentulism.

BMC Psychol 2021; 9:130. [PMID: 34465377 PMCID: PMC8406588 DOI: 10.1186/s40359-021-00636-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2021] [Accepted: 08/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Symptoms of depression and anxiety are common in adults with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and diabetes mellitus (DM). The literature on depression and anxiety in CVDs and DM populations is extensive; however, studies examining these relationships over time, directly compared to adults without these conditions, are still lacking. This study aimed to investigate trends in depression and anxiety symptom prevalence over more than 20 years in adults with CVDs and DM compared to the general population. Methods We used data from the population-based Trøndelag Health Study (HUNT), Norway, including adults (≥ 20 years) from three waves; the HUNT2 (1995–97; n = 65,228), HUNT3 (2006–08; n = 50,800) and HUNT4 (2017–19; n = 56,042). Depressive and anxiety symptom prevalence was measured independently by the Hospital Anxiety and Depressions scale (HADS) in sex-stratified samples. We analyzed associations of these common psychological symptoms with CVDs and DM over time using multi-level random-effects models, accounting for repeated measurements and individual variation. Results Overall, the CVDs groups reported higher levels of depression than those free of CVDs in all waves of the study. Further, depressive and anxiety symptom prevalence in adults with and without CVDs and DM declined from HUNT2 to HUNT4, whereas women reported more anxiety than men. Positive associations of depression and anxiety symptoms with CVDs and DM in HUNT2 declined over time. However, associations of CVDs with depression symptoms remained over time in men. Moreover, in women, DM was associated with increased depression symptom risk in HUNT2 and HUNT4. Conclusions Depression and anxiety symptoms are frequent in adults with CVDs. Further, our time trend analysis indicates that anxiety and depression are differentially related to CVDs and DM and sex. This study highlights the importance of awareness and management of psychological symptoms in CVDs and DM populations.

J Diabetes Complications 2021; 35:107946. [PMID: 34053797 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdiacomp.2021.107946] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2020] [Revised: 04/15/2021] [Accepted: 05/02/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been suggested that long-term glycemic load as reflected in plasma levels of Glycosylated Hemoglobin, Type A1C (HbA1c) is associated with higher risk of depression, however results have been conflicting. We examined the potential association between HbA1c and risk of depression in a large population-based cohort without baseline diabetes (the Glostrup cohort) defined by either self-reported diabetes, registry diagnosis of diabetes or use of antidiabetic medication at baseline and in a national diabetes cohort (the Danish Adult Diabetes Database). METHODS A total of 16,124 middle-aged individuals from the Glostrup cohort and 93,544 patients registered in the Danish Adult Diabetes Database were followed from the first registered HbA1c measurement (1999-2014) for subsequent diagnosis of depression or use of antidepressant medication in nation-wide Danish registers. The association was analyzed using a Cox proportional hazards regression model with HbA1c on both a continuous scale using restricted cubic splines and categorized based on the groups found in the spline model. We adjusted for relevant sociodemographic and clinical variables including previous depression and tested for interaction of both gender, insulin use and diabetes type. RESULTS During follow-up, 2694 (17%) in the Glostrup cohort and 29,234 (31%) in the diabetes cohort developed depression. In the Glostrup cohort, we found an indication of a positive linear association between HbA1c and depression in women, while no clear association was found in men. In patients with diabetes, we found a U-shaped association between HbA1c and depression in both men and women with the lowest risk estimates for HbA1c levels of 58 mmol/mol (7.5%) in men and of 60 mmol/mol (7.6%) in women. When HbA1c was categorized, men with the highest HbA1c-levels had significantly elevated risk of depression (HRHbA1c>9.4 1.16 (95%CI 1.10-1.23)) after multifactorial adjustment compared to the reference group with HbA1c of 42.1-56.2 mmol/mol (6.0-7.3%). Women in the lowest and highest category of HbA1c had significantly higher risk of depression HRHbA1c<6.0 1.15 (95% CI 1.09-1.22) and HRHbA1c>9.3 1.10 (95% CI 1.04-1.16), respectively, compared to the reference group with HbA1c 42.1-55.0 mmol/mol (7.2-9.3%). There was a significant interaction with gender, but no interaction for insulin use or diabetes type. CONCLUSIONS In a population without baseline diabetes, higher HbA1c levels seemed associated with higher depression risk in women, whereas a U-shaped association was found in patients with known diabetes.

The familial and genetic contribution to the association between depression and cardiovascular disease: a twin cohort study. Mol Psychiatry 2021; 26:4245-4253. [PMID: 33219357 DOI: 10.1038/s41380-020-00954-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2020] [Revised: 10/28/2020] [Accepted: 11/05/2020] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
Depression and cardiovascular disease (ischemic heart disease and stroke) are associated in a bidirectional manner. Their relatively high heritability has led to the hypothesis that this co-occurrence is related to shared familial and genetic factors; this study aims to test this hypothesis. We included 23,498 monozygotic and 39,540 same-sex dizygotic twins from the Danish Twin Registry followed from January 1977 until December 2011 in nationwide Danish registries. We used survival analyses accounting for censoring and competing risk of death to estimate cumulative incidence, casewise concordance, relative recurrence risk, and heritability of the co-occurrence of depression and cardiovascular disease by age using monozygotic and same-sex dizygotic twin pairs. The casewise concordance of ischemic heart disease or stroke in twins whose co-twin was diagnosed with depression was at all ages similar for the monozygotic and dizygotic twin pairs and to the cumulative incidence of ischemic heart disease or stroke, respectively, in the entire twin population. A similar pattern was seen in analyses of depression risk given the co-twin being diagnosed with ischemic heart disease or stroke. Relative recurrence risk and heritability estimates were also of modest size and with confidence intervals including unity. Results were similar after stratification by gender as well as when redefining depression to include the use of antidepressant medication from 1995. Our findings do not support that co-occurrence between depression and cardiovascular disease is explainable by shared genetic factors, nor did we find strong evidence of a familial effect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Finding effective, accessible treatment options such as professional-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for medically complex individuals is challenging in rural communities. PURPOSE We examined whether a CBT-based program intended to increase physical activity despite chronic pain in patients with diabetes delivered by community members trained as peer coaches also improved depressive symptoms and perceived stress. METHODS Participants in a cluster-randomized controlled trial received a 3-month telephonic lifestyle modification program with integrated CBT elements. Peer coaches assisted participants in developing skills related to adaptive coping, diabetes self-management goal-setting, stress reduction, and cognitive restructuring. Attention controls received general health advice with an equal number of contacts but no CBT elements. Depressive symptoms and stress were assessed using the Centers for Epidemiologic Studies Depression and Perceived Stress scales. Assessments occurred at baseline, 3 months, and 1 year. RESULTS Of 177 participants with follow-up data, 96% were African Americans, 79% women, and 74% reported annual income <$20,000. There was a significant reduction in perceived stress in intervention compared to control participants at 3-months (β = -2.79, p = .002 [95% CI -4.52, -1.07]) and 1 year (β = -2.59, p < .0001 [95% CI -3.30, -1.87]). Similarly, intervention participants reported significant decreases in depressive symptoms at 3-months (β = -2.48, p < .0001 [95% CI -2.48, -2.02]) and at 1 year (β = -1.62, p < .0001 [95% CI -2.37, -0.86]). CONCLUSIONS This peer-delivered CBT-based program improved depressive symptoms and stress in individuals with diabetes and chronic pain. Training community members may be a feasible strategy for offering CBT-based interventions in rural and under-resourced communities. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NCT02538055.

The consumption of wholegrain is related to depressive symptoms among Chinese adults: a cross-sectional study. Eur J Clin Nutr 2021; 76:126-133. [PMID: 33931771 DOI: 10.1038/s41430-021-00917-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2021] [Revised: 03/19/2021] [Accepted: 03/31/2021] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Wholegrains contribute a range of beneficial nutrients, such as dietary fiber and several minerals and vitamins, that are beneficial to depressive symptoms. However, there are a few studies aimed at exploring whether a wholegrain diet is related to depressive symptoms. We conducted this study to investigate the relationship between wholegrains consumption and depressive symptoms. METHODS This cross-sectional study included a total of 24,776 (mean age: 39.9 years, age range: 18.1-91.3 years; males, 54.1%) inhabitants living in Tianjin, China. Wholegrains consumption was assessed using a valid self-administered food frequency questionnaire. Depressive symptoms were evaluated using the Chinese version of Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and the cutoff point was set at 45. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the relationship between wholegrains consumption and depressive symptoms. RESULTS The prevalence of depressive symptoms was 19.1% and 22.4% in males and females, respectively. After adjustments for potential confounding factors, the odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) of depressive symptoms across wholegrains consumption were 0.77 (0.65-0.91) for <1 time/week, 0.73 (0.62-0.86) for 1 time/week and 0.68 (0.59-0.79) for ≥2 time/week in males compared with the control group (almost never). In females, the odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) were 0.86 (0.71-1.04) for <1 time/week, 0.94 (0.78-1.13) for 1 time/week, and 0.76 (0.65-0.91) for ≥2 time/week. Similar results were observed when we use other cut-offs (SDS ≥ 40 and 50) to define depressive symptoms. CONCLUSION This study first demonstrated that the higher consumption of wholegrains might have effects on the prevention and improvement of depressive symptoms. Prospective or intervention studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the risk of treatment-resistant depression (TRD) in patients with depression by examining their clinical features, early prescription patterns, and early and lifetime comorbidities. METHODS In total, 31,422 depressive inpatients were followed-up from diagnostic onset for more than 10-years. Patients were diagnosed with TRD if their antidepressant treatment regimen was altered ≥two times or if they were admitted after at least two different antidepressant treatments. Multiple Cox regression model were used to determine whether physical and psychiatric comorbidities, psychosis, and prescription patterns increased the risk of TRD by controlling for relevant demographic covariates. Survival analyses were performed for important TRD-associated clinical variables. RESULTS Females with depression (21.24%) were more likely to suffer from TRD than males (14.02%). Early anxiety disorders were more commonly observed in the TRD group than in the non-TRD group (81.48 vs. 58.96%, p < 0.0001). Lifetime anxiety disorders had the highest population attributable fraction (42.87%). Seventy percent of patients with multiple psychiatric comorbidities developed TRD during follow-up. Cox regression analysis further identified that functional gastrointestinal disorders significantly increased TRD risk (aHR = 1.19). Higher doses of antidepressants and benzodiazepines and Z drugs in the early course of major depressive disorder increased TRD risk (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION Our findings indicate the need to monitor early comorbidities and polypharmacy patterns in patients with depression associated with elevated TRD risk.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed at investigating factors associated with social isolation and being homebound in older patients with diabetes. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTINGS Those undergoing outpatient treatments at Ise Red Cross Hospital, Mie Prefecture. PARTICIPANTS Patients with diabetes aged ≥65 years. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES Social isolation was defined as indulging in less than one interaction per week with individuals other than cohabiting family members. We defined homebound as going outside home less than once a day. To identify factors associated with social isolation and being homebound, we performed logistic regression analysis. The dependent variable was social isolation or homebound and independent variables were basic attributes, glycaemic parameters, complications and treatment details. RESULTS We analysed 558 cases (320 men and 238 women). Among these, 174 (31.2%) were socially isolated; meanwhile, 87 (15.6%) were homebound. The glycoalbumin/haemoglobin A1c ratio (OR 4.52; 95% CI 1.07 to 19.1; p=0.040) and the Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Gerontology Index of Competence (TMIG-IC) scores (OR 0.72; 95% CI 0.57 to 0.90; p=0.006) had significant associations with social isolation. TMIG-IC scores (OR 0.78; 95% CI 0.66 to 0.92; p=0.003) and insulin use (OR 4.29; 95% CI 1.14 to 16.1; p=0.031) were associated with being homebound. CONCLUSION In older patients with diabetes, glycaemic fluctuations and insulin use are associated with social isolation and being homebound, respectively. In addition, a decline in higher level functional capacity is a common factor associated with social isolation and being homebound. Thus, it is important to pay attention to social isolation and being homebound when a decline in higher level functional capacity, increased glycaemic fluctuations and insulin use in older patients with diabetes are observed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the association of diabetes and prediabetes with suicide deaths in a Japanese working population. METHODS A nested case-control study was conducted using data from the Japan Epidemiology Collaboration on Occupational Health Study. During 8 years of follow-up, we identified 56 registered cases of suicide death that had information on fasting plasma glucose or glycated hemoglobin A1c at any health check-up during the past 3 years prior to suicide. For each case, we randomly selected five controls matched for age, sex, and worksite. We used the latest health check-up data for analysis. We defined diabetes status based on the American Diabetes Association criteria and used a conditional logistic regression model to investigate the association. RESULTS Adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for suicide death were 0.67 (0.32-1.41) and 3.53 (1.05-11.91) for prediabetes and diabetes, respectively, compared to normoglycemia. Similar results were obtained when diabetes status was exclusively defined by the fasting plasma glucose or glycated hemoglobin A1c level. CONCLUSION Diabetes, but not prediabetes, was associated with a higher risk of suicide death, compared with normoglycemia, among a Japanese working population.

BMJ Open Diabetes Res Care 2020; 8:8/2/e001789. [PMID: 33177041 PMCID: PMC7661381 DOI: 10.1136/bmjdrc-2020-001789] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2020] [Revised: 09/25/2020] [Accepted: 09/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several studies have argued a causal relationship between diabetes and depression, while others have highlighted that their association is a result of common risk factors. Because Mexico is a country with a high prevalence of diabetes, and diabetes and depression are a frequent comorbidity, we chose this country to investigate the longitudinal relationship of these two conditions, focusing on the influence of demographic, health, and socioeconomic factors which could act as common risk factors for both conditions. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Using the harmonized Mexican Health and Aging Study, a nationally representative sample of adults older than 50 with a response rate of 93%, we analyzed the longitudinal relationship of diabetes and depressive symptoms using 'between-within' random-effects models, focusing on the effect of demographic, socioeconomic and health factors. RESULTS While older adults with diabetes reported a higher prevalence of depressive symptoms in the four waves of the study, there was no causal longitudinal association between them once controlling for demographic, socioeconomic and health factors (between-effect OR=0.88, 95% CI 0.77 to 1.01; within-effect OR=0.87, 95% CI 0.69 to 1.11). CONCLUSIONS There is no causal longitudinal association between diabetes and depression; the higher prevalence of depression among older adults with diabetes seems a result of socioeconomic and health factors that are not exclusive to respondents with diabetes but are more frequent in this group. Our results highlight the importance of prevention and control of chronic conditions as well as the role of socioeconomic inequalities in mental health.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aims to investigate whether the associations between impaired glucose regulation and health-related quality of life are modified by severity or type of depressive symptoms. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS For this cross-sectional study, we included 1939 individuals (mean age 61.5 years) from the Helsinki Birth Cohort Study. Between 2001 and 2004, a standard 2-hour 75 g oral glucose tolerance test was applied to define normoglycemia, pre-diabetes, and newly diagnosed diabetes. Information on previously diagnosed diabetes was collected from national registers and questionnaires. Pre-diabetes was defined as having either impaired fasting glucose or impaired glucose tolerance. The Mental and Physical Component Scores of health-related quality of life were assessed with Short Form-36. Beck's Depression Inventory was employed to investigate the severity of depressive symptoms and to define minimal (depression score <10), non-melancholic, and melancholic types of depression. We analyzed data with general linear models adjusted for sex, age, lifestyle factors, comorbidities, and body mass index. RESULTS Glucose regulation subgroups, especially previously known diabetes, were associated with lower Physical Component Score (p=0.001) and higher depression score (p=0.015), but not with the Mental Component Score (p=0.189). Non-melancholic depression was associated with lower Physical and Mental Component Scores compared with those with depression score <10 and melancholic depression (p<0.001), independently of glucose regulation status (p for glucose regulation status by depression type interaction >0.54). CONCLUSIONS Non-melancholic type of depression and previously known diabetes are independently associated with lower health-related quality of life. This should be appraised in long-term treatment of diabetes and when treating non-melancholic depressive symptoms to maintain a higher health-related quality of life.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Depression and diabetes are highly disabling diseases with a high prevalence and high rate of comorbidity, particularly in low-income ethnic minority patients. Though comorbidity increases the risk of adverse outcomes and mortality, most clinical interventions target these diseases separately. Increasing physical activity might be effective to simultaneously lower depressive symptoms and improve glycaemic control. Self-management apps are a cost-effective, scalable and easy access treatment to increase physical activity. However, cutting-edge technological applications often do not reach vulnerable populations and are not tailored to an individual's behaviour and characteristics. Tailoring of interventions using machine learning methods likely increases the effectiveness of the intervention. METHODS AND ANALYSIS In a three-arm randomised controlled trial, we will examine the effect of a text-messaging smartphone application to encourage physical activity in low-income ethnic minority patients with comorbid diabetes and depression. The adaptive intervention group receives messages chosen from different messaging banks by a reinforcement learning algorithm. The uniform random intervention group receives the same messages, but chosen from the messaging banks with equal probabilities. The control group receives a weekly mood message. We aim to recruit 276 adults from primary care clinics aged 18-75 years who have been diagnosed with current diabetes and show elevated depressive symptoms (Patient Health Questionnaire depression scale-8 (PHQ-8) >5). We will compare passively collected daily step counts, self-report PHQ-8 and most recent haemoglobin A1c from medical records at baseline and at intervention completion at 6-month follow-up. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The Institutional Review Board at the University of California San Francisco approved this study (IRB: 17-22608). We plan to submit manuscripts describing our user-designed methods and testing of the adaptive learning algorithm and will submit the results of the trial for publication in peer-reviewed journals and presentations at (inter)-national scientific meetings. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03490253; pre-results.
