Abstract

Introduction: Depression is associated with poor health behaviors (i.e., smoking, physical inactivity, caloric intake) that increase risk of type 2 diabetes. It is also related to central obesity and potentially to impaired glucose tolerance. However, it should be made very clear that clinical depression is an illness like any other medical illness that cannot be willed away. Hence, the present study was undertaken to study prevalence of depression in male prediabetic patients.
