Key result
Prior major depressive disorder (OR 4.19) and higher baseline negative affect (OR 1.09) significantly and independently predicted the development of major depressive disorder over 18 months in patients with type 2 diabetes.

What are the risk factors associated with the development of major depressive disorder (MDD) among patients with type 2 diabetes over time?
Odds Ratio: 4.19 (95% CI 1.79–9.79)
p-value: p=0.001
In patients with type 2 diabetes, baseline negative affect and prior MDD strongly predict future MDD, while negative life events and poor glycemic control also contribute in stratified subgroups.
Naranjo et al. (2011) conducted a cohort in Type 2 diabetes (n=338). Prior major depressive disorder vs. No prior major depressive disorder was evaluated on Diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) at 9 or 18 months (OR 4.19, 95% CI 1.79-9.79, p=0.001). Prior major depressive disorder (OR 4.19) and higher baseline negative affect (OR 1.09) significantly and independently predicted the development of major depressive disorder over 18 months in patients with type 2 diabetes.
