Psychological status of diabetic people with or without lower limb disability
Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare the quality of life between diabetic people with chronic foot ulceration or lower limb amputation and diabetic controls. Each participant was interviewed using the Psychosocial Adjustment to Illness Scale, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) scale, a specifically designed foot questionnaire and a quality of life ladder. Thirteen diabetic unilateral lower limb amputees (DA) were matched for age and sex with 13 unilateral diabetic patients with chronic foot ulceration (DU). Twenty six age- and sex-matched diabetic people with no history of foot ulceration were the controls (DC). Significantly poorer psychosocial adjustments to illness were found in DU and DA compared to diabetic controls (both P < 0.05). DU were also significantly more depressed than the DC (P < 0.05) using the HAD scale. The quality of life ladder revealed that DU were significantly more dissatisfied with their personal lives than DC (P < 0.05). Finally, the foot questionnaire showed that DU had a significantly more negative attitude towards their feet than DC and DA (P < 0.05). This study showed that the psychological status of mobile amputees was better than that of the diabetic foot ulcer patients but not as good as diabetic controls.

Diabetes complications are linked to depression, anxiety, reduced autonomy, role impairment, and lower overall physical function and quality of life.
“Diabetes complications, including peripheral neuropathy, foot ulcers, limb amputation, diabetic kidney disease, vision impairment, stroke, and heart attack, are associated with depression, anxiety, reduced autonomy, role impairment, and reduced overall physical function and quality of life (119–122).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
