Abstract
AIMS: To determine whether diabetes distress or depression screening better predict increased hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and to assess interactions with age, sex, race, obesity, and insurance status. BACKGROUND: Diabetes distress is a negative emotional reaction to diabetes, diabetes complications, self-management demands, unresponsive providers, and/or poor interpersonal relationships. Guidelines recommend annual depression screening, however diabetes distress may be mistaken for depression. METHOD: Depression (PHQ-9) and diabetes distress (PAID-T) scores from self-administered tests were studied in 313 patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) between the ages of 13-17. Spearman correlations and robust rank order multivariable regression analysis were used to assess relationships to age, duration, HbA1c. Kruskal-Wallis test was used to assess differences between sexes, races, and insurance status. Receiver operator curves (ROC) were constructed to see whether PAID-T or PHQ-9 scores more closely predicted HbA1c greater than 9%. RESULTS: HbA1c was more strongly correlated with PAID-T (rs = 0.37, p < 0.01), than PHQ-9 (rs = 0.27, p < 0.01) scores. Area under ROC curve for poor HbA1c was 0.75 for PAID and 0.64 for PHQ-9. PAID-T and PHQ-9 scores were increased in females and subjects with public insurance and both were significantly related to HbA1c even when accounting for age, sex, race obesity, and insurance status. PHQ-9 and PAID-T scores correlated with BMI-Z scores in Blacks, but not Whites. CONCLUSIONS: Both depression and diabetes distress are associated with increased HbA1c in adolescents with T1D, though distress is more so. Diabetes distress and depression should be routinely assessed in T1D adolescents, particularly those with public insurance.
