Effectiveness of Collaborative Care for Depression and HbA1c in Patients with Depression and Diabetes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

“…The author contacted the author to obtain the data, when some studies mentioned outcomes of interest without providing estimates. Eight authors [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] were contacted for missing mean and standard deviations. And after 2 weeks, we had contacted those authors again.…”

“…Of these, 96 papers were deemed potentially relevant and assessed for eligibility in their full-texts; 84 articles were excluded. Finally, the study included 12 eligible studies in the meta-analysis [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][24][25][26][27].…”

“…Included studies were conducted in the US (n = 10) [15,17,[19][20][21][22][24][25][26][27], Canada (n = 1) [16], and India (n = 1) [18] (Table 1).…”

Diabetes Distress or Major Depressive Disorder? A Practical Approach to Diagnosing and Treating Psychological Comorbidities of Diabetes

“…Collaborative care amongst primary care physicians, nurses, and other professionals has been shown to improve MDD remission and higher adherence to diabetes and MDD medications [ 10 , 33 ]. A 2016 randomized controlled trial suggested that “patient prioritized planning” that incorporated knowledge of the individual patient’s financial, social, and emotional needs significantly improved A1c and MDD symptoms, compared to more basic MDD counseling [ 34 ]. Interestingly, a 2016 study with 3609 patients used a team-based approach based on the chronic care model and suggested that 24% of people with diabetes and MDD experienced remission of their MDD while only 16% showed improvement in their depressive symptoms over 11 months [ 35 ].…”

Effects of Community-Based Psychological Interventions on Depressive Symptoms and Blood Glucose Control for Older Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes: A Systematic Review and Meta- Analysis

“…With its increasing prevalence and the aging of the population, it is estimated that the number of older individuals diagnosed with T2D will increase more than fourfold from 2005 to 2050 (Kirkman et al, 2012). This indicates that T2D will continue to be a considerable burden on healthcare systems and societies (de Vries et al, 2016).…”
