Lu Han, Tim Doran, Richard Ian Gregory Holt, Catherine Hewitt, Rowena Jacobs, Stephanie Louise Prady, Sarah Louise Alderson, David Shiers, Han- Wang, Sue Bellass, Simon Gilbody, Charlotte Emma Wray Kitchen, Jennie Lister, Johanna Taylor, Najma Siddiqi

Summary: This study aimed to determine the impact of severe mental illnesses (SMIs) on healthcare processes and outcomes for people with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Results showed that SMI was associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease-specific mortality, suggesting potential underdiagnosis of CVD and delays in treatment among people with SMIs.

Living with diabetes alongside a severe mental illness: A qualitative exploration with people with severe mental illness, family members and healthcare staff

Sue Bellass, Jennie Lister, Charlotte Emma Wray Kitchen, Lyndsey Kramer, Sarah Louise Alderson, Tim Doran, Simon Gilbody, Lu Han, Catherine Hewitt, Richard Ian Gregory Holt, Rowena Jacobs, Stephanie Louise Prady, David Shiers, Najma Siddiqi, Johanna Taylor

Summary: The study aimed to understand the challenges of managing both severe mental illness and diabetes from the perspectives of people living with the co-morbidity, their family members, and healthcare staff. The results identified five themes, highlighting the impact of severe mental illness on diabetes management and the importance of support for daily challenges affecting diabetes management. Interventions that help differentiate between symptoms of diabetes and severe mental illness are also needed.

Healthcare resource use and costs for people with type 2 diabetes mellitus with and without severe mental illness in England: longitudinal matched-cohort study using the Clinical Practice Research Datalink

Han- Wang, Lu Han, Rowena Jacobs, Tim Doran, Richard I. G. Holt, Stephanie L. Prady, Simon Gilbody, David Shiers, Sarah Alderson, Catherine Hewitt, Jo Taylor, Charlotte E. W. Kitchen, Sue Bellass, Najma Siddiqi

Summary: People with coexisting type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and severe mental illness (SMI) have higher average annual costs, primarily driven by mental and non-mental health-related hospital admissions. Key predictors of higher total costs include older age, comorbid hypertension, use of antidepressants, use of first-generation antipsychotics, and increased duration of living with both conditions.

Summary: This study aimed to record the expectations and experiences of individuals with severe mental illness receiving daily Liraglutide injections for obesity treatment. Interviews with patients and healthcare professionals revealed that most participants had no challenges with the injections and overall, Liraglutide was considered an acceptable therapy for obesity in this population.

User-driven open-source artificial pancreas systems and patient-reported outcomes: A missed opportunity?

Michael Vallis, Richard I. G. Holt

Summary: This paper explores the attributes of engagement and urgency to act demonstrated by open-source artificial pancreas system users in controlling diabetes. It suggests that increased user involvement can capitalize on these self-management traits. The paper also outlines the challenges of researching outcomes in the context of unlicensed therapies.

Summary: This study explores the lived experience of individuals with severe mental illness and long-term physical conditions. It finds that people with co-existing mental illness and physical conditions often face significant barriers to self-management of their health due to competing demands and limited support. Providing social support and person-centred care is crucial for managing health in this population.

Summary: People with diabetes have a higher risk of depression, intentional self-injury, and suicide. This study investigates the experiences and awareness of healthcare professionals (HCPs) regarding these issues, as well as their resource needs. A survey was conducted with 129 HCPs who care for individuals with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. The results show that a majority of HCPs feel uncomfortable asking about self-injury or suicidal ideation and lack appropriate training. They express a need for more training on how to address these issues and better access to resources for patients with diabetes.

The psychosocial burdens of living with diabetes

Summary: This study aimed to examine the prevalence of self-reported psychosocial burdens and unmet needs among individuals with diabetes during routine diabetes visits. The results showed that a majority of participants reported anxiety, depression, fear of low blood sugars, low mood, and diabetes-related distress. However, a smaller percentage of patients reported that their diabetes team had discussed mental health. Most participants expressed the desire for their healthcare team to proactively inquire about their mental well-being and listen empathetically without judgement, and to develop skills in understanding psychosocial issues in diabetes.
