The age of them ranged between 17 and 95 years with an arithmetic mean of 53.4 years and a standard deviation of \u00b1 18.2 years. Almost two-thirds (62.2%) were males. The prevalence of depression among diabetic patients was 48.2%, mostly of mild (31.4%) or moderate severity (12.7%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that female diabetic patients were at almost double-fold risk of developing depression compared to males [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) =2.73, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.70\u20134.38],\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.001.
