Research Design And Methods: We conducted a cohort study using nationwide registers from 1996 to 2020 to identify individuals with diabetes, ascertain SMI status (namely, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or major depression) and identify the outcomes: hospitalization for hypoglycemia and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). We used Poisson regression to estimate incidence rates (IRs) and incidence rate ratios (IRRs) of recurrent hypoglycemia and DKA events by SMI, age, and calendar year, accounting for sex, diabetes duration, education, and country of origin.
Aims: Several psychiatric disorders are linked with an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes (T2D), but the mediating mechanisms are unclear. We aimed to investigate health behaviors, obesity, psychotropic medication use, and comorbidity as potential mediating mechanisms explaining these associations.
Methods: We combined data from a large population-based survey with register-based data and followed a sample of 250,013 Danes (≥16 years) for up to 8.
Objective: To examine associations between baseline anxiety and depression and occurrence of ICD shocks and risk of mortality in patients with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD).

Results: We included 37 studies based on 25 different cohorts following 35,003 participants for up to seven years.
