Description
Summary:Factors that could affect DM severity were also recorded, such as smoking status, presence of comorbidities, family history of DM, DM duration, therapy, number of doctor's visits, HbAlc levels, and blood sugar levels. The DASS has no direct implications for the allocation of patients to diagnostic categories postulated in classification systems, since it is predominantly aimed to measure DASS symptoms in both clinical and nonclinical samples. [...]the DASS-21 questionnaire is only a screening tool.16 3. [...]the odds ratios (OR) and confidence intervals (95% CIs) were also calculated. Logistic regression analysis (Table 4) indicated that age (OR=2.57, 95% Cl: 1.59-4.13) was a predictor of depression and anxiety statuses. [...]DM patients should be tested with the DASS questionnaire at a young age.
