There have been endless reports on the mechanism, prevention, and cure of comorbidity because of its high incidence and poor prognosis and the increased burden on the family and society. There may be a specific comorbid basis and causal relationship between depression and metabolic diseases. Depression in patients with metabolic disorders can be effectively alleviated through psychotherapy and medication. Timely and effective treatment of depression can significantly improve patients’ quality of life with metabolic disorders, reduce their psychological burden, and promote the effective treatment of metabolic diseases.
