The diabetes eating problem survey-revised (DEPS-R) questionnaire is a specific and valuable tool for assessing disturbed eating behavior in type 1 diabetes mellitus. The literature suggests an association between a higher DEPS-R score and worse metabolic control; however, these figures have not been described in patients from Latin America.We evaluated 58 patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus from a Brazilian outpatient clinic using the DEPS-R questionnaire.Overall, 23 participants with a high risk for high eating disorder behaviors exhibited significantly increased hemoglobin A1c levels compared with 35 patients with a DEPS-R score20.Our data support that the presence of a DEPS-R score20 negatively affects the metabolic control of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus in Brazil. |
