摘要

Background

Collaborative care models (CoCM) improve both depression and cardiometabolic outcomes, but the mechanisms driving these effects remain unclear.

Objective

To determine whether changes in depressive symptoms, positive health behaviors (PHBs), body mass index (BMI), and waist circumference mediate the effect of an adapted CoCM on glycemic control among adults with cardiometabolic risk in India.

Design

Longitudinal structural equation modeling of data from the INtegrating DEPrEssioN and Diabetes TreatmENT (INDEPENDENT) Randomized Control Trial.

Participants

Adults in India with type 2 diabetes or elevated cardiometabolic risk factors and clinically significant depressive symptoms.

Interventions

An adapted CoCM integrating behavioral activation (BA) within diabetes care, delivered by a multidisciplinary team to enhance engagement in self-care activities.

Main Measures

Intervention exposure was the independent variable; mediators were depressive symptoms (Symptom Checklist-20), PHBs (Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities), BMI, and waist circumference; the primary outcome was hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Confirmatory factor analyses ensured measurement validity, with second-order factors capturing depressive symptom domains (anhedonia, somatization, internalizing symptoms, restlessness).

Key Results

The intervention significantly reduced depressive symptoms from 0–6 months (β = –0.22, p < 0.01) and 6–12 months (β = –0.34, p < 0.01) and increased PHBs from 0–6 months (β = 0.15, p < 0.05) and 6–12 months (β = 0.11, p < 0.05). Higher depressive symptoms predicted lower PHBs at 6 months (β = –0.26, p < 0.01) and 12 months (β = –0.25, p < 0.01). PHBs mediated reductions in BMI (β = –0.08 to –0.09, p < 0.01) and waist circumference, which in turn mediated improvements in HbA1c.

Conclusions

An adapted CoCM improved glycemic control and cardiometabolic risk by alleviating depressive symptoms, enhancing PHBs, and reducing BMI and waist circumference. Integrating BA within CoCM may be a key mechanism for optimizing outcomes in integrated cardiometabolic care.
