Psychological support

People with high diabetes distress achieve reductions in glycated hemoglobin and the need for emergency care for acute diabetes complications after starting on intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring, report researchers.

Researchers find psychologic resilience to be predictive of glycated hemoglobin levels in the 3 years after type 1 diabetes diagnosis.

Researchers have found that the early morning psychosocial state of adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes explains a proportion of their daily variance in time in range.

Women are more likely than men to experience repercussions of serious or severe hypoglycemia that impact their wellbeing or diabetes management, a study suggests.

Researchers find women with type 1 diabetes report a high rate of sexual dysfunction, which may be linked to psychosocial issues.

Findings from a modeling study suggest that community-based exercise and cognitive behavioral therapy interventions for depression in people with type 2 diabetes are cost-effective in the long-term.

Negative emotional experience and skill at regulating emotions are associated with diabetes distress in adults with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, researchers report.

Improved diabetes knowledge and reduced distress both contribute to the positive effects of diabetes distress interventions on glycemic outcomes, say researchers.
