The Role of the Diabetes Anxiety Depression Scale among Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract

Background and Aim: Studies have demonstrated a connection between diabetes and 
depression. Diabetes and anxiety or depression each contribute to higher rates of illness and 
death on their own. The objective of the study was to examine the prevalence of anxious 
depression among diabetic patients and to explore the relationship between glycaemic control, 
the duration of diabetes, and this mental health condition.
