MinD (current or past) n = 17 |
MDD (current or past) n = 24 |
p Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Age in years, mean ± SD | 61.5 ± 12.1 | 55.4 ± 11.4 | 57.1 ± 10.2 | 0.08 |
| Sex (%) | 0.04 | |||
| Female | 50.0 | 64.7 | 79.2 | |
| Race/ethnicity (%) | 0.67* | |||
| White | 35.5 | 23.5 | 33.3 | |
| Black | 56.4 | 76.5 | 58.3 | |
| Other | 8.1 | 0 | 8.3 | |
| SSRI antidepressant medication use (%) | 9.7 | 11.8 | 16.7 | 0.63* |
| Diabetes duration (years), median (first, third quartile) | 13.5 (5, 20) | 10 (6.5, 14) | 8 (4, 13) | 0.047† |
| Diabetes treatment (%) | ||||
| Oral agents only | 27.4 | 23.5 | 33.3 | 0.77 |
| Noninsulin injectables | 4.8 | 0 | 0 | 0.74* |
| Insulin | 64.5 | 64.7 | 54.2 | 0.65 |
| HbA1c (%), median (First, third quartile) | 8.1 (6.9, 9.5) | 8.4 (7.2, 9.6) | 7.7 (6.5, 8.7) | 0.34 |
| HbA1c (mmol/mol) | 65 (52, 80) | 68 (55, 81) | 61 (48, 72) | |
HbA1c =hemoglobin A1c; MDD =major depressive disorder; SCID =Selected Structured Clinical Interview for DSM; SD =standard deviation; SSRI = selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor.
Note: χ2 tests were used to compare categorical variables (unless noted otherwise); linear models were used to compare least square means; and the Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare medians.
*
Fisher exact test was used for group comparisons with small cell sizes.
