Summary "Mental Health, Diabetes and Endocrinology will examine key clinical areas of overlap between the two specialities, studying the main topics of interest and common challenges. It is written for clinicians and will draw together the most relevant developments from the literature and clinical practice. This book will pay specific attention to the main areas where clinical conundrums and treatment challenges arise across endocrinology, psychiatry and primary care. Common challenges in this area include depression, which can impact on a person's ability to self-care and adhere to treatment, with consequences for their morbidity and mortality; 'diabulimia', or comorbid diabetes and eating disorder, which is associated with high mortality rates; obesity and associated mental disorders; cognitive impairment and mental capacity; antipsychotic medications and their endocrine and metabolic sequelae; and specific setting-related concerns"-- Provided by publisher
