“…Despite these known adverse effects, the high prevalence of depression in diabetes, and the fact that effective treatments are available, there is a considerable under-detection and subsequent under-treatment of these conditions. Less than half of the depressed patients with diabetes are recognized [15,16]. Furthermore, studies suggested that diabetic patients are more prone to anxiety than healthy individuals [17,18].…”

Diabetes mellitus is one of the highest global health emergencies of the 21st century, and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) has one of the highest prevalence rates of type 2 diabetes prevalence all over the world. Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that requires long-term medical attention to limit the development of its complications and manage them when they occur. Therefore, patients with diabetes have a greater risk of psychological problems, such as depression, stress, and anxiety, than people without diabetes. The study aims to estimate the prevalence and levels of depression, anxiety, and stress among type 2 diabetic patients and to identify the possible predictors of depression, anxiety, and stress among type 2 diabetic patients in Al-Madinah, Saudi Arabia. A cross-sectional design was conducted at primary healthcare centers affiliated with the Ministry of Health (MOH) in Al-Madinah City. This study observed that 3.3% of diabetes patients have depression from mild to moderate levels (2.5%, and 0.8%, respectively). The 34.4 diabetes patients had anxiety from mild to severe levels (17.6%, 11.6%, and 0.3%, respectively). 29.6% of diabetes patients had mild to extremely severe stress levels (10.6%, 19.8%, 3.8%, and 0.2%, respectively). These findings also suggest that the healthcare system must pay attention to the psychological aspects of diabetes and routinely request the screening and continual monitoring of DASS in diabetic patients.

Introduction Diabetic nephropathy is a common complication among patients with diabetes mellitus, and it has been linked to a higher risk of depression. However, the magnitude of this association remains unclear. This study aimed to systematically review and meta-analyse the risk of depression in patients with diabetic nephropathy compared to diabetes patients without nephropathy. Methods We conducted a systematic literature review, searching multiple databases from January 1964 to March 2023, and included randomized controlled trials, non-randomized controlled trials, and observational studies. We assessed the risk of bias using the Newcastle Ottawa scale for observational studies. The statistical analysis was performed using STATA version 14.2, and pooled odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. A total of 60 studies were included. Results The pooled OR for the risk of depression among patients with diabetic nephropathy was 1.78 (95% CI 1.56–2.04; I 2 = 83%; n = 56), indicating a significantly higher risk compared to diabetes patients without nephropathy ( p < 0.001). Pooling the effect size across these studies showed that the pooled OR was 1.15 (95% CI 1.14–1.16; I 2 = 88%; n = 32). Subgroup analyses based on the type of diabetes and study region revealed no significant differences in the pooled estimates. Conclusion This study demonstrates that patients with diabetic nephropathy have a significantly higher risk of depression compared to diabetes patients without nephropathy. These findings highlight the importance of assessing and addressing the mental health of patients with diabetic nephropathy as part of their overall healthcare management.
