For example, patients with diabetes frequently experience depression, and its prevalence rate is two times (or more) higher than that of general patients. In order to investigate how depression affects disease control of diabetes, this study conducted literature review to summarize the incidence of diabetes and depression, pathogenesis, and adverse effects of depression on patients with diabetes.
