By knowing the local prevalence and severity of DRD, primary care teams can improve the DRD evaluation in our daily practice. This was a cross-sectional study conducted in 3 General Out-patient Clinics (GOPCs) from 1 December 2021 to 31 May 2022. A random sample of adult Chinese subjects with T2DM, who regularly followed up in the selected clinic in the past 12\u00a0months, were included. DRD was measured by the validated 15-item Chinese version of the Diabetes Distress Scale (CDDS-15). An overall mean score \u2265\u20092.0 was considered clinically significant. The association of DRD with selected clinical and personal factors was investigated. The study recruited 362 subjects (mean age 64.2\u00a0years old, S.D. 9.5) with a variable duration of living with T2DM (median duration 7.0\u00a0years, IQR 10.0). The response rate was 90.6%. The median HbA1c was 6.9% (IQR 0.9). More than half (59.4%) of the subjects reported a clinically significant DRD.<\/p>\n<p>Read more\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41598-024-61538-w\">https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41598-024-61538-w<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u5c0d\u4e0d\u8d77\uff0c\u6b64\u5185\u5bb9\u53ea\u9069\u7528\u65bcEnglish\u3002By Man Ho Wong et al.
