Mental Illness and Substance Use Disorders among Women Veterans with Diabetes
Women's Health Issues, 11/04/09

Banerjea R et al. – Overall, 45% of women had a mental illness (MI), substance use disorders (SUD), or both. SUD rates were high among those with serious MI. The associations between MI/SUD and independent variables were not uniformly significant, except for macrovascular conditions; women veterans were more likely to have combinations of MI/SUD. A high rate of MI/SUD suggests that care for mental and physical illness needs to be integrated into health care planning and delivery of services to veteran women with diabetes.
