ABSTRACT
Background: The association between diabetes, hearing loss and
depression is unknown, and needs to be understood clearly and precisely.
Our objective was to estimate the association between depression
and hearing loss in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Methods: Cross-sectional analytical study. Patients of 40 years or older
with type 2 diabetes were studied. Anthropometric measurements and
biochemical parameters were recorded. The Beck Depression Inventory
and a pure tone audiometry were applied. Groups were compared with
chi squared test and logistic regression for confounders.
Results: 150 patients were included (76 % women). Average age
was 56 ± 9.3 years, with 12.4 ± 6.5 years of progression of diabetes,
weight 67.4 ± 11.6 kg; 31 % were obese; 25.5 % hypertensive
(126.3 ± 19.3 / 79.4 ± 19.7 mm Hg) and 80.7 % had poor metabolic
control (HbA1c ≥ 7 %). Of all the patients, 45.3 % presented hearing
loss and 32.4 % depression. Diagnosis of depression in patients with
hearing loss remained significant after adjusting for confounders (odds
ratio [OR] = 2.3; 95 % confidence interval [CI] = 1.051-5.333, p = 0.037).
Women had greater risk of depression, difference that remained significant
(OR = 3.2; 95 % CI = 1.268-8.584, p = 0.014) after adjustment.
Conclusions: Almost half of the patients with diabetes presented hearing
loss and more than three times the risk of depression. Subjects with
depression and diabetes presented more hearing loss (› 20 dB) than
those without diabetes and/or without depression.
