To examine the contribution of demographic, social, clinical and psychological factors to emotional distress in patients with painful diabetic neuropathy (DN). In total, 142 patients with confirmed painful DN underwent detailed clinical and self-assessment measures (Neuropathic Pain Scale, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Pain Acceptance Questionnaire and Pain Catastrophizing Scale). The prevalence of emotional distress was 51.4% in this cohort. Age, sex, marital status, employment history, pain intensity, duration of diabetes and the presence of diabetic and non-diabetic complications were significantly correlated to anxiety and depressive symptom scores. Multiple regression analysis confirmed that the presence of catastrophic thinking was an independent contributor to greater symptoms of anxiety and depression. Being young, single and unemployed significantly contributed to greater anxiety symptoms. Pain-related restriction of quality of life was associated with greater depr...

To assess the presence of anxiety disorders and quality of life in patients with insulin-dependent type 2 diabetes. Case-control study of 996 patients with type 2 diabetes and 2,145 individuals without diabetes. The sole inclusion criterion for the case group was insulin-dependent type 2 diabetes. We compared the case and control groups for sociodemographic variables, laboratory and clinical data, and presence of anxiety disorders. Quality of life was evaluated using the WHOQOL-BREF instrument, and the prevalence of anxiety disorder was evaluated by the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI). Patients with diabetes had a higher prevalence of generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The presence of these disorders in combination with type 2 diabetes was associated with worse quality of life in the physical, social, psychological, and environmental domains. This study demonstrates the importance of diagnosing and treating anxiety d...
