Bidirectional Relationship

Screening for Tuberculosis in people with Diabetes and screening for Diabetes in people with Tuberculosis will allow earlier detection of co-morbidities, leading to better health outcomes. This study carried out in a tertiary care hospital in South India consisted of 500 Diabetic patients and 250 patients of Tuberculosis. In 250 Tuberculosis patients screened for DM, the overall prevalence of DM in TB patients was 24.8%,out of which 17.2 % already had Diabetes and 7.6% was the additional yield during screening. About 500 Diabetes cases screened for tuberculosis, 7.6% had symptoms suggestive of tuberculosis. On further evaluation of these subjects none of them revealed evidence for tuberculosis. There exists a bidirectional relationship between TB and diabetes, and they both impact the presentation of each other. This study highlights the need of routine screening for dysglycemia for all TB patients, especially at the time of diagnosis, similar to HIV screening.

Objective: To assess the frequency of depression in type-II diabetics presenting at tertiary care hospital. Materials & Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted at Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Science, Sheikh Zayed Hospital, Rahim Yar Khan from April 2020 to October 2020 over the period of 6 months. Total 200 type-II diabetics having age 20-65 years either male or female were selected for this study. Depression was assessed in selected by using DSM-IV criteria for Depression. Results: Mean age was 54.37 ± 5.88 years. Out of 200 patients of diabetes, depression was noted in 46 (23%) patients. Most (98,49%) of the patients were between 51-65 years but difference of depression with age group was not statistically significant with p value 0.8958. Total 19 (20.88%) male patients and 27 (24.77%) female patients were found with depression. But depression was insignificantly associated with gender with p value 0.6315. Total 11 (14.29%) patients found with depression having duration of diabetes mellitus ≤3 years and 35 (28.46%) patients found with depression having duration of diabetes mellitus >3 years. Depression was significantly associated with duration of diabetes mellitus with p value 0.032. Conclusion: Our study concluded that prevalence of depression in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients was much higher and have shown positive association with extremes of ages and duration of disease.
