Adjusted for age, education, number of doctor visits in past 6 months, duration of T2DM at time of HbA1c test; B = difference in HbA1c for a 1-point increase in CES-D; Hb = hemoglobin; CES-D = Center for Epidemiological Studies - Depression Scale, N = number of observations; n = number of participants; CI = confidence interval.
