Abstract Background: Patient-centered care in diabetes self-management might be a significant factor in improving self-care outcomes yet the supporting evidence is inadequate. This review is aimed to assess the effectiveness of patient-centered self-management care interventions on self-care outcomes such as glycemic control (HbA1c) and self-care behaviors in adults with type-2 diabetes compared with usual care. Methods: CINAHL, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar and the HEC Pakistan digital library were searched for English language studies that assessed patient-centered self-management educational and/or behavioral interventions in adults aged 18 years or above with type 2 diabetes from 1991 to 2020. Interventional studies comprising randomized controlled trials (RCT) and quasi experimental studies (QES) with at least three months follow up and reporting on self-care outcomes with glycemic control (HbA1c) as primary outcome and self-care behaviors including diet control, physical activity, medication adherence and foot care as secondary outcomes were included. Results: Of the 168 identified records, 25 were found eligible comprising 21 RCTs and 4 QESs with total 4,443 participants. The meta-analysis involved 23 studies that provided enough information for a pooled estimate of HbA1c. Compared with the control group, patient-centered self-management interventions significantly lowered HbA1c −0.53 (95% CI −0.73, −0.32). Stratified analysis for HbA1c with respect to various aspects of intervention showed larger effects in interventions employing both educational and behavioral components −0.59 (95% CI −0.86, −0.32), spanned over shorter (<03 months) duration −0.56 (95% CI −0.86, −0.27), administered by nurses −0.80 (95% CI −1.44, −0.16) and delivered in community setting −0.65 (95% CI −1.00, −0.29). Moreover, patient-centered self-management interventions were found effective in improving diet control, physical activity and foot care. Conclusion: This systematic review provided the evidence supporting the effectiveness of patient-centered self-management care interventions in improving glycemic control and self-care behaviors in adults with type 2 diabetes and identified key features of intervention contributing towards success.

BACKGROUND: Diabetes is a type of chronic disease with exceptional medical care for a patient's lifetime, which ultimately requires lifestyle and behavioural adjustments to prevent complications to death. Patients with good self-care behaviour will cause diabetes to be controlled to avoid complications to death and make patients have a better quality of life. AIM: This study aims (1) to determine the model of self-care behaviour in Type 2 diabetes patients in Binjai City (2) to analyse the effect of self-care behaviour on quality of life, metabolic control and lipid control of Type 2 diabetes patients in Binjai City. METHODS: This type of research is survey-based and explanatory using a cross-sectional approach. The study population was Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients who remained patients in 8 primary health centres in Binjai City. The consecutive sampling yielded a sample size of 115 people. Data analysis method uses descriptive statistics and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using SPSS and Amos 16.0. RESULTS: The results showed that all factors that build T2DM patient self-care behaviour were able to be predictors that shape the patient's self-care behaviour. The self-care behaviour model consists of knowledge, attitudes, communication, financing, family support, motivation, and self-efficacy. Motivation is the most significant predictor of its contribution to the self-care behaviour of Type 2 diabetes patients. Self-care behaviour was also known to be significantly related to the quality of life, metabolic control and lipid control of T2DM patients (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Self-care behaviour in T2DM patients can have a substantial and significant impact on quality of life, metabolic control and lipid control possessed by Type 2 Diabetes patients.

Abstract Purpose To assess quality of life, glycemic control, and safety/tolerability associated with liraglutide versus insulin initiation in patients with type 2 diabetes in Germany. Methods Liraglutide/insulin-naïve adults with type 2 diabetes and inadequate glycemic control despite using oral antidiabetic medication were assigned to liraglutide (≤1.8 mg daily; n=878) or any insulin (n=382) according to the treating physician’s decision and followed for 52 weeks. The primary objective was to evaluate Audit of Diabetes-Dependent Quality of Life (ADDQoL) scores. Results At baseline, the liraglutide group was younger and had shorter type 2 diabetes duration, lower glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), higher body mass index, and a lower prevalence of certain diabetes-related complications than the insulin group (all p<0.05). ADDQoL average weighted impact scores improved numerically in both groups from baseline to 52 weeks (mean difference [95% confidence interval], liraglutide vs. insulin: 0.159 [−0.023;0.340]; not significant). Changes in general wellbeing and five ADDQoL domains significantly favored liraglutide (remaining 14 domains, not significant). HbA1c reductions were greater with insulin than liraglutide (−2.0% vs. −1.2%; p<0.01); however, mean HbA1c after 52 weeks was 7.2% in both groups. Compared with insulin, liraglutide significantly decreased body mass index (−1.54 kg/m2 vs. +0.27 kg/m2; p<0.001), systolic blood pressure (−5.03 mmHg vs. −1.03 mmHg; p<0.01) and non-severe hypoglycemia (0.85% vs. 4.55% at 52 weeks; p<0.01). Adverse drug reactions were reported for<3% of patients in both groups. Conclusions Liraglutide improved certain ADDQoL components and reduced body mass index, systolic blood pressure, and non-severe hypoglycemia versus insulin. Both treatments improved glycemic control.
