Depression and anxiety are co-morbid condition in diabetes as disease-related psychological reactions on this chronic metabolic illness. This study was aimed to determine the occurrence of depression and anxiety in seafarer's type 2 diabetic patients. A random sample of 52 diabetic seafarers treated with diet and oral glucose lowering agents, and 56 healthy seafarers were screened for depression with The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and for anxiety with State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI 1, STAI 2). Depression (BDI > 18.5) and anxiety (STAI < 28.5) was significantly higher in the group of diabetic seafarers than in control group (more than 30%). Significant correlation was noted between depression and duration of diabetes mellitus, degree of obesity and poor glycaemic control (HbA1C > 8%) and longer duration of shipping routes (over 6 months). The proportion of depression and anxiety was found higher in seafarer's type 2 diabetic patients than in the healthy seafarers.
抑郁和焦虑是糖尿病患者共病的情况，是对这种慢性代谢性疾病的疾病相关心理反应。本研究旨在确定海员2型糖尿病患者中抑郁和焦虑的发生率。对52名接受饮食和口服降糖药治疗的糖尿病海员以及56名健康海员进行随机抽样，用贝克抑郁量表（BDI）筛查抑郁情况，用状态-特质焦虑量表（STAI 1、STAI 2）筛查焦虑情况。糖尿病海员组的抑郁（BDI>18.5）和焦虑（STAI<28.5）发生率显著高于对照组（超过30%）。抑郁与糖尿病病程、肥胖程度、血糖控制不佳（糖化血红蛋白>8%）以及较长的航线时长（超过6个月）之间存在显著相关性。发现海员2型糖尿病患者中抑郁和焦虑的比例高于健康海员。
