The effects of diabetes on mental health in South Korean adults.

CONCLUSION: PHQ-9 for screening depressive disorder based on diabetes diagnosis status had low scoring distribution. However, because diabetes diagnosis status significantly affected PHQ-9 for depression screening, it is necessary to pay attention to health care related to diabetes. Further research should be conducted on the association with diverse causes of the low scoring distribution in PHQ-9 in relation to diabetes. PMID: 31156191 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
