Abstract |
: |
Background: The most emergency health problem of the twenty-first century is diabetes. Saudi Arabia has the globe's seventh highest diabetes rate. In diabetic individuals, depression is a relatively common situation. The study's goal was to assess the relationship between depression and diabetic patients (type 1 and type 2) and study their association with some sociodemographic characteristics and health status in a sample of diabetic Saudi patients in Jeddah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Methods: In total, 300 diabetic patients, both types 1 and 2, participated in King Abdulaziz University Hospital in the present cross-sectional study. It was used in the assessment of the Beck Depression Inventory questionnaire for type 2 patients and the Birleson depression scale-rating for children for type 1 patients, to determine the level of depression.
Results: Our findings suggest that hospital visitors had a high point prevalence of depression when screened. The depression risk was elevated twofold in people with diabetes mellitus. Depression affects nearly one in five diabetic individuals, with many of these cases being mild to moderate.
Conclusion: We clearly concluded that the type of diabetes is an important factor in the symptoms of depression, particularly in females, married patients, and those with education. Also, occupation, diabetes duration, and obesity were significant factors among those patients with type 2 diabetes. However, no significant relationship was found between depression and type 1 diabetic patients. We advise consultants to make the test for depression for diabetic patients. In addition to providing appropriate psychological and pharmacological treatment. Depression research is still ongoing, and these results one day may lead to better treatment and diagnosis. |
