Depression can play a direct role in the development of type 2 diabetes. Researchers have found a genetic link between depression and type 2 diabetes, a disease with which more than 500 million people worldwide live.
The discovery has shown details related to the fact that depression is a risk factor for this type of diabetes, along with other factors such as obesity, passive life and genetics.
Dr. Elizabeth Robertson, Director of Diabetes Research UK, said: "This important study gives us new insights into the links between genetics, type 2 diabetes and depression, showing that depression can contribute to the development of type 2 diabetes. 2. Type 2 diabetes is complex, with multiple risk factors, and previous research has shown that this type of diabetes is more common in people with depression."
The study used data from thousands of people in the UK and Finland, including 19,000 people with type 2 diabetes, around 5,000 individuals diagnosed with depression and 153,000 self-diagnosed depression.
Pedagogia Inga Prokopenko në universitetin “Surrey”, e cila drejtoi studimin, tha: “Zbulimi ynë gjen depresionin si një shkaktar të diabetit të tipit 2 dhe mund të ndihmojë në përpjekjet për parandalimin e kësaj sëmundjeje”.
