Diabetic Medicine Oct 06, 2021
Quinn LM, Hadjiconstantinou M, Brady EM, et al. - Evening chronotype may be associated with higher levels of diabetes-related distress and depression in people with type 2 diabetes.
Of the 808 people involved, from convenience sampling, 476 people finished the psychosocial questionnaire substudy.
Sixty-seven percent (n = 321) were men, and 86% (n = 408) were white Europeans.
The Morningness–Eveningness Questionnaire revealed that 24% (n = 114) were morning chronotype, 24% (n = 113) were evening chronotype, and 52% (n = 249) were intermediate chronotype.
Diabetes-related distress was significantly greater in evening chronotypes than in the morning and intermediate chronotypes.
Depression was also significantly higher in evening chronotypes than in the morning and intermediate chronotypes.
