“…There was no association between depression and age in the current study. Similar findings in previous studies showed no association between depression and age in central Sudan, Omdurman [ 22 ], Tanzania [ 20 ], Ethiopia [ 42 ] and Nigeria [ 43 ]. A meta-analysis of patients with T2DM revealed that depression was more prevalent in subjects younger than 65 compared with older people [ 30 ].…”

“…Our study showed that glycaemic control was not a significant risk for developing depression among patients with T2DM. This is a similar outcome to the non-significant association of depression and glycaemic control using fasting blood sugar as reference in patients with T2DM found in Ethiopia [ 31 , 45 ] and subjects with DM in Nigeria [ 43 ]. In contrast, a significant difference between depression and poor glycaemic control (HbA1c > 7%) among patients with DM was documented in Sudan [ 23 ], Guinea [ 39 ], Ghana [ 19 ] and South Africa [ 40 ].…”

Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) represents a global health threat and burden. It is associated with medical and psychological complications, especially depression. Depression among patients with DM may affect the general prognosis. Hence, we conducted a cross-sectional study in Gadarif, eastern Sudan to evaluate the prevalence of depression and its associated factors among patients with type 2 DM (T2DM). Methods We performed a cross-sectional study. Data on anthropometric parameters, demographic characteristics and blood glucose levels were collected via questionnaire. Depression was assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). Results Three hundred and fifty patients with T2DM were enrolled in the study and 205 (58.6%) were women. The median (interquartile range) age and duration of diabetes were 56.0 (14.0) years and 8 (8) years, respectively. The prevalence of depression in patients with T2DM was 35.6%. Logistic regression analysis showed significant associations between depression and rural residence (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 2.11, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.20–3.72), non-employee (AOR = 2.32, 95% CI = 1.34–4.00), co-morbidity (AOR = 2.35, 95% CI = 1.43–3.86) and obesity AOR = 2.19, 95% CI = 1.48–4.18). Conclusion The prevalence of depression is high among Sudanese patients with T2DM. Rural residence, unemployment, co-morbidity and obesity are significant risk factors for developing depression among patients with T2DM.

“…In the third literature study belonging to (Edah et al, 2020), it was found that the results of 64 male patients with diabetes mellitus found an increase in the prevalence of depression experienced by male patients where they felt they had lost their manhood in front of their partners. In the 4th study belonging to (Balasingam et al, 2019), it was found that from a total male population of 365 people with diabetes mellitus and aged between 18 to 65 years with comorbidities in the form of cardiovascular and complications of Erectile Dysfunction, this made the patient in a certain period lead to depression, resulting in the wrong perception.…”

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a disease or chronic metabolic disorder with multiple etiologies characterized by high blood sugar levels and impaired carbohydrate, lipid, and protein metabolism resulting from insulin function insufficiency. Various complications occur in DM patients, one of which is erectile dysfunction. In men with the same age profile, erectile dysfunction is more common than in non-diabetics. To determine the experience of male patients with diabetes mellitus who suffer erectile dysfunction. Journal search with literature review system using diabetes mellitus and erectile dysfunction. PICO framework as a strategy in article search. The investigation was carried out on PubMed, Scopus, Ebsco, ProQuest, and Science Direct websites. Journal reviews were carried out on four articles, and the research results with article inclusion criteria ranged from 2015-to 2021. The research design used an observational with a cross-sectional approach. The initial search resulted in 329 articles showing high relevance to the topics.

“…As noted, very little has been written on T1D in LICs, but studies of T2D have highlighted depression, stigma and diabetes distress or burnout. [20][21][22][23][24] Despite the implications for T1D management, very little has been written on techniques for insulin storage in hot countries with low levels of refrigeration. Ogle et al did a thorough analysis of 12 traditional techniques of refrigeration from seven countries, including goat skins and clay pots, with varying levels of effectiveness, although none were included that were reported in this study.…”

Experience of living with type 1 diabetes in a low-income country: a qualitative study from Liberia

et al. 2021

IntroductionWhile epidemiological data for type 1 diabetes (T1D) in low/middle-income countries, and particularly low-income countries (LICs) including Liberia is lacking, prevalence in LICs is thought to be increasing. T1D care in LICs is often impacted by challenges in diagnosis and management. These challenges, including misdiagnosis and access to insulin, can affect T1D outcomes and frequency of severe complications. Despite the severe nature of T1D and growing burden in sub-Saharan Africa, little is currently known about the impact of T1D on patients and caregivers in the region.MethodsWe conducted a qualitative study consisting of interviews with patients with T1D, caregivers, providers, civil society members and a policy-maker in Liberia to better understand the psychosocial and economic impact of living with T1D, knowledge of T1D and self-management, and barriers and facilitators for accessing T1D care.ResultsThis study found T1D to have a major psychosocial and economic impact on patients and caregivers, who reported stigma, diabetes distress and food insecurity. Patients, caregivers and providers possessed the knowledge necessary to effectively manage T1D but insufficient community awareness leads to delayed diagnosis, often in an emergency department. Most patients reported receiving free services and materials, though the cost of transportation to clinic visits and recommended foods is a barrier to disease management. Many providers noted the lack of national T1D-specific guidelines and registries. Policy-makers reported a lack of prioritisation of and resources for T1D. These barriers, combined with scarcity and expense of appropriate foods, pose severe barriers for self-management of T1D.ConclusionT1D was found to have a significant impact on patients and caregivers, and informants identified several key individual and systems-level barriers to effective T1D care in Liberia. Addressing these concerns is vital for designing sustainable and effective programmes for treating patients living with T1D.
