Depression and Risk for Diabetes: A Meta-Analysis
Abstract
Objective Many studies have reported the relationship between depression and diabetes, but the results have been inconsistent. Our aim was to conduct a systematic review through meta-analysis to assess the association of depression with the risk for developing diabetes. Methods We retrieved the studies concerning depression and the risk for diabetes. Meta-analysis was applied to calculate the combined effect values and their 95% confidence intervals. The risk for publication bias was assessed by the Egger regression asymmetry test. Results As many as 33 articles were included in the meta-analysis, for a total of 2 411 641 participants. The pooled relative risk for diabetes was 1.41 (95% CI, 1.25-1.59) for depression, and the combined relative risk for type 2 diabetes mellitus was 1.32 (95% CI, 1.18-1.47). Conclusions Depressed people have a 41% increased risk for developing diabetes mellitus and a 32% increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes. The mechanisms underlying this relationship are still unclear and need further research.

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.
