Increased Risk

ObjectivesSeveral patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have depressive disorders. Whether insulin treatment was associated with increased risk of depression remains controversial. We performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the association of insulin therapy and depression.DesignA meta-analysis.MethodsWe conducted a systematic search of PubMed, PsycINFO, Embase and the Cochrane Library from their inception to April 2016. Epidemiological studies comparing the prevalence of depression between insulin users and non-insulin users were included. A random-effects model was used for meta-analysis. The adjusted and crude data were analysed.ResultsTwenty-eight studies were included. Of these, 12 studies presented with adjusted ORs. Insulin therapy was significantly associated with increased risk of depression (OR=1.41, 95% CI 1.13 to 1.76, p=0.003). Twenty-four studies provided crude data. Insulin therapy was also associated with an odds for developing depression (OR=1.59, 95% CI 1.41 to 1.80, p<0.001). When comparing insulin therapy with oral antidiabetic drugs, significant association was observed for adjusted (OR=1.42, 95% CI 1.08 to 1.86, p=0.008) and crude (OR=1.61, 95% CI 1.35 to 1.93, p<0.001) data.ConclusionsOur meta-analysis confirmed that patients on insulin therapy were significantly associated with the risk of depressive symptoms.

Adequate Treatment

The onset of insulin therapy is an important stage in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Its timely beginning ensures better control of glycemia and reduces the negative consequences of chronic glucose cytotoxicity and lipotoxicity. The achievement and maintenance of the stable compensation of the disease are the indispensable conditions for successful prophylaxis and adequate treatment of chronic complications of diabetes mellitus. The ADA guidelines recommend to initiate insulin therapy at the early stages of the disease provided it is dictated by the clinical situation or combine it with the use of oral hypoglycemic agents if the targeted HbA1c levels fail to be reached despite the intake of one or more tableted preparations.
