Introduction: Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) therapyhas proven effective in type 2 diabetes but there is little data on its effect in patients with psychiatric comorbidity, who usually present worse metabolic and clinical control. The aim of this study was to evaluate if there are differences in the effect of this therapy in relation to the presence of these pathologies.

Methods: 225 patients included in a therapy protocol with SGLT2i, 54.9% men, mean age 63.7 ± 10.0, time of evolution of diabetes 11.1 ± 9.0 years, were evaluated analyzing the changes in clinical and biochemical parameters at baseline and after one year of therapy with SGLT2i. The analysis was performed in the global and separating in two groups according to the presence of psychiatric comorbidity. Quantitative variables are expressed by mean (standard deviations). Qualitative variables are expressed by frequencies and percentages. Paired samples T-test are used in the statistical analysis. We consider significant P < 0.05.

Results: 24.4% of patients presented psychiatric comorbidities, and the most frequent diagnoses were anxiety (34.5%), depression (32.7%) and anxiety-depressive syndrome (16.4%). Baseline data and after follow-up expressed as means (s.d.) and means difference (s.d.) (95% CI): weight (kg) 91.2 ± 19.7 vs 87.9 ± 19.1; 3.4 ± 5.1 (2.6 to 4.2) (P < 0.001), body mass index (kg/m2) 34.5 ± 6.2 vs 33.3 ± 6.1; 1.2 ± 2.1 (0.9 to 1.6) (P < 0.001), glycated hemoglobin (%) 8.2 ± 1.2 vs 7.4 ± 1.1; 0.7 ± 1.2 (0.5 to 0.9) (P < 0.001), glucose (mg/dl) 169.6 ± 69.3 vs 143.5 ± 46.3; 26.2 ± 73.5 (14.7 to 37.6) (P < 0.001), systolic blood pressure (mmHg) 149.9 ± 17.8 vs 144.0 ± 18.8; 5.9 ± 20.2 (2.5 to 9.3) (P = 0.001), diastolic blood pressure (mmHg) 84.0 ± 11.3 vs 82.0 ± 10.7; 2.0 ± 10.2 (0.3 to 3.7) (P = 0.024), high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol (mg/dl) 45.3 ± 11.9 vs 48.8 ± 13.7; 3.5 ± 11.4 (5.3 to 1.6) (P < 0.001), triglycerides (mg/dl) 189.0 ± 102.5 vs 160.7 ± 77.8; 28.4 ± 94.0 (13.6 to 43.1) (P < 0.001), glomerular filtration rate (ml/min/1.73 m2) 82.6 ± 34.0 vs 88.2 ± 24.5; 5.6 ± 26.8 (9.9 to 1.3) (P = 0.01). There were no significant changes in total cholesterol, low-density-lipoprotein cholesterol and albuminuria. In the separate analysis we found no significant differences regarding the benefit in patients who had psychiatric comorbidity.

Conclusions: Psychiatric comorbidity in diabetic patients is associated with worse results of some pharmacological treatments, probably due to a loweradherence to changes in lifestyle. In our study, SGLT2i therapyoffers the same advantages in terms of metabolic and clinical control in this group of patients
