Food addiction (FA) is conceptualized as a behavioral pattern that is similar in some ways to addictions to alcohol and other substances. This disorder has not been well studied among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). We aimed to analyze if there is any relationship between FA and clinical or psychological variables among patients with T2DM.
Three hundred patients with T2DM were analyzed cross-sectionally. Participants were evaluated for the presence of FA by completing the Yale Food Addiction Scale 2.0 questionnaire.
29.3% of patients screened positive for FA. Patients with FA had a greater BMI (33.41 ± 7.5 vs. 31.6 ± 5.9 kg/m; p = 0.04). HbA1c was higher among individuals with FA (7.9 ± 4.4 vs. 7.6 ± 1.4%, p = 0.008). The proportion of subjects with diabetic retinopathy, neuropathy and nephropathy was greater among patients with criteria for FA compared with patients without this condition (25% vs. 13.2%, 29.5% vs. 21.8% and 32% vs. 22.3%; p = 0.03, p = 0.05 and p = 0.05, respectively). The percentage of patients with FA with significant depressive symptoms was also greater (36.4% vs. 18.5%; p = 0.002).
The presence of FA among T2DM patients implied a worse glycaemic control. Microvascular complications and depressive symptoms were higher among these patients.
食物成瘾(FA)被概念化为一种行为模式,在某些方面与酒精和其他物质成瘾相似。这种疾病在 2 型糖尿病(T2DM)患者中尚未得到很好的研究。我们旨在分析 T2DM 患者中 FA 与临床或心理变量之间是否存在任何关系。
对 300 名 T2DM 患者进行横断面分析。通过完成耶鲁食物成瘾量表 2.0 问卷评估参与者 FA 的存在。
29.3%的患者筛查出 FA 阳性。有 FA 的患者 BMI 更高(33.41±7.5 与 31.6±5.9 kg/m2;p=0.04)。FA 患者的 HbA1c 更高(7.9±4.4 与 7.6±1.4%,p=0.008)。与没有 FA 条件的患者相比,有 FA 条件的患者糖尿病视网膜病变、神经病变和肾病的比例更高(25%与 13.2%,29.5%与 21.8%和 32%与 22.3%;p=0.03、p=0.05 和 p=0.05)。有 FA 的患者有明显抑郁症状的比例也更高(36.4%与 18.5%;p=0.002)。
T2DM 患者存在 FA 意味着血糖控制更差。这些患者的微血管并发症和抑郁症状更高。
