Prevalence of Psychopathology in Bariatric Surgical Candidates with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Systematic Review

Pekin C*, McHale M and Byrne G

Introduction: Bariatric surgical candidates confer an elevated risk of psychopathology. Prior reviews highlight the vulnerability and bidirectionality of psychopathology in people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Despite this, current evidence for the rates of psychopathology in people with T2DM pre and post-bariatric surgery has yet to be systematically reviewed.

Objective: To perform a systematic review of the prevalence of psychopathology in adults with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus pre and post-bariatric surgery. 

Results: Seven studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria, from 45,576 studies on the digital search of databases. 

Conclusions: Scant evidence exists which specifies cohorts of bariatric surgical patients with T2DM and rates of psychopathology. Further research is warranted to understand the risks, measures, and potential interventions for this subgroup.
