They establish a relationship between diabetes and depression

Diabetes is associated with the risk of depression, and vice versa, so that any of both diseases can lead to the other.

An investigation of the Harvard University School of Public Health, and published in the Archives of Internal Medicine magazine;Based on the evaluation, and follow -up for 10 years, of 2,844 women with a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes and 7,415 women with a diagnosis of depression.

The study showed that women with diabetes are 29% more likely to develop depression.While those insulin dependents presented 53% more risk of depression than those that did not suffer from diabetes.In addition, women with depression were 17% more likely to develop this disease throughout life.

For the authors of the research, "the diagnosis of diabetes would lead to depressive symptoms derived from biochemical changes that cause this metabolic disease, or its treatment, or by stress and tensions associated with living with diabetes."

The study is very good, there is not much material on psychology in type 2 diabetes ...(Something we already supposed) and vice versa .... but if they don't tell us why I almost left the same.

I suppose they would find similar results if they investigated the relationship between cancer and depression, unemployment and depression, old age and depression, loneliness and depression ....
