Abstract

<p>Previous studies have reported that depression and anxiety are associated with several endocrine and metabolic disorders. </p><p>Graves’ disease (GD) is a typical psychosomatic disorder, and depression and anxiety negatively affect remission rates in patients with GD.</p><p>A significant association between depression and glycemic control has been established in patients with diabetes mellitus. Depression influences glycemic control through both physiological and behavioral mechanisms. Recently, it has been reported that diabetes-related distress and self-stigma affect glycemic control. Both have been suggested to be associated with depression.</p><p>Only few studies have examined the relationship between anxiety and diabetes mellitus. Anxiety may be associated with poor self-care activities and exacerbation of glycemic control. However, a moderate level of anxiety may have a positive effect on alleviating the risk of diabetic complications.</p>
