Abstract

Patients with diabetes had a higher risk of developing depressive symptoms. Little is known about the risk of depressive symptoms associated with different glucose metabolism status. We performed a meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies to investigate the risk of depressive symptoms among individuals with impaired glucose metabolism (IGM), newly diagnosed diabetes (NDM), and previously diagnosed diabetes (PDM), compared with those with normal glucose metabolism (NGM), and further examined the influence of diabetes-related comorbidities on the association. PubMed and EMBASE were searched for relevant studies through 5 September 2015. The random-effects model was used to calculated overall relative risk (RR) and confidence interval (CI). Three separated meta-analyses were conducted by estimating the risk of depressive symptoms among people with IGM, NDM, and PDM, with NGM as a common reference category. Secondary analyses were conducted to examine whether adjustment for diabetes-related comorbidities affected the association. Five prospective cohort studies were included in the analyses, with a total of 18,051 participants involved. People with IGM (RR = 1.08, 95 % CI 0.84-1.38) and NDM (RR = 1.07, 95 % CI 0.74-1.55) were not associated with risk of developing depressive symptoms, whereas patients with PDM were associated with a modest increased risk of depressive symptoms (RR = 1.29, 95 % CI 1.03-1.63), after adjustment for demographic/socioeconomic factors. The risk of depressive symptoms associated with PDM was attenuated to be non-significant after pooling RRs that were adjusted for diabetes-related comorbidities. Our meta-analysis suggested people with PDM, but not IGM or NDM had an increased risk of developing depressive symptoms, and the risk was partially explained by diabetes-related comorbidities. Our findings indicated that routine diabetes care should put more emphasis on psychological problems of diabetic patients with complications.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 10 August 2018.
All research outputs
#13,448,499
of 24,041,016 outputs
Outputs from Acta Diabetologica
#434
of 948 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#133,745
of 301,904 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Acta Diabetologica
#3
of 12 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,041,016 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 948 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.7. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 54% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 301,904 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 55% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 12 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its contemporaries.
