  1. This Table represents multivariable logistic regression analyses with depression status as dependent variable, and either marital status, medication adherence or glycaemic control as an independent variable in separate models (Model 1). Further adjustments to the models were performed by introducing variables sequentially as indicated below:
  2. Model 1: Unadjusted
  3. Model 2: Model 1 + age & gender
  4. Model 3: Model 2 + social factors (education, employment, alcohol & smoking status)
  5. Model 4: Model 3 + clinical factors (duration of diabetes, diabetes medication & hypertension)
  6. Model 5: Model 4 + Glycaemic control
