Anxiety and depressive disorders in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 and cerebrovascular disease
Abstract
Aims.
Current study was aimed to identify symptoms and risk factors for depression and anxiety and to estimate quality of life (QoL) in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) and cerebrovascular disease (CVD).
Materials and methods.
We examined 73 patients with T2DM. 1st group included 49 patients with T2DM and CVD, 2nd group - 24 patients with T2DM and no cardiovascular pathology. The groups were not significantly different in terms of age, BMI, level of HbAlc, fasting and postprandial glycemia. All patients received antihyperglycemic and antihypertensive therapy. Anxiety and depression were diagnosed with Beck Depression Inventory and Spielberger State and Trait Anxiety Scale (SSTAS). SF-36 questionnaire was used for estimation of QoL.
Results.
2nd group showed symptoms of anxiety and depressive disorders in 100% and 75% of cases, respectively. 1st group showed significantly more prominent anxiety and depression symptoms. Risk factors for anxiety and depressive disorders in patients with T2DM and CVD were found to be senior age, obesity and atherogenic dyslipidemia.
Conclusion.
Cardiovascular comorbidity in T2DM significantly decreases QoL, especially in aspects of physical functioning and vitality. Timely diagnostics of anxiety and depression in patients with T2DM and CVD requires development of screening and rehabilitation programs.
