Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To examine rates of depression and (un)met psychological needs in youth with type 1 diabetes. METHODS: An open-access web-survey was conducted, collecting data on demographics, self-reported HbA1c, depressive symptoms [Child Depression Inventory (CDI)], wished and received psychological care in youth with type 1 diabetes (9-19 years). RESULTS: The survey was completed by 233 youth; 17.2% reported elevated depressive symptoms on the CDI, girls more than boys (p = 0.003). Half of the youth did not talk about their feelings with their pediatrician or nurse. Of those youth with elevated depressive symptoms, 28% received psychological care, 25% wished to see a psychologist and 47% did not think it was necessary to receive psychological support. DISCUSSION: This web-survey confirms the high prevalence of elevated depressive symptoms in youth with type 1 diabetes and the urgency to address their psychological needs. Screening for depressive symptoms in the context of periodic outpatient consultation could improve early detection and treatment of emotional problems.

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.
