BACKGROUND Diabetes remains a major health problem in the US affecting an estimated 10.5% of the population. Diabetes self-management interventions improve diabetes knowledge, self-management behaviors, and metabolic control. Widespread Internet connectivity facilitates the use of eHealth interventions, which positively impacts knowledge, social support, clinical, and behavioral outcomes. Particularly, diabetes interventions based in virtual environments have the potential to improve diabetes self-efficacy and support while being highly feasible and usable. However, little is known about the pattern of social interactions and support taking place within type 2 diabetes-specific virtual communities. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to examine social support exchanges from a type 2 diabetes self-management education and support intervention that was delivered via a virtual environment (VE). METHODS Data comprised VE-meditated synchronous interactions among participants and between participants and providers from an intervention for type 2 diabetes self-management education and support. Network data derived from such social interactions were used to create networks to analyze patterns of social support exchange with the lens of social network analysis. Additionally, network correlations were used to explore associations between social support networks. RESULTS Findings reveal structural differences between support networks as well as key network characteristics of supportive interactions facilitated by the intervention. Emotional and appraisal support networks are the larger, most centralized, and most active networks, suggesting that virtual communities can be good sources for these types of support. In addition, appraisal and instrumental support networks are more connected, suggesting that members of virtual communities are more likely to engage in larger group interactions where these types of support can be exchanged. Lastly, network correlations suggest participants that exchanged emotional support are likely to exchange appraisal or instrumental support, and participants that exchanged appraisal support are likely to exchange instrumental support. CONCLUSIONS Social interaction patterns from disease-specific virtual environments can be studied using a social network analysis approach to better understand the exchange of social support. Network data can provide valuable insights into the design of novel and effective eHealth interventions given the unique opportunity virtual environments have facilitating realistic environments that are effective and sustainable where social interactions can be leveraged to achieve diverse health goals.

BACKGROUND Background: The development of evidence-based care geared towards Black/African American and Latina women living with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes is contingent upon their active recruitment into clinical interventions. Well-documented impediments to recruitment include a historical mistrust of the research community and socioeconomic factors that limit awareness and access to research studies. While sociocultural and socioeconomic factors deter minorities from participating in clinical research, it is equally important to consider the role of stigma in chronic disease intervention studies. OBJECTIVE Objective: We aim to share our discovery of diabetes-related stigma as an under-recognized impediment to recruitment for the Women in Control 2.0 virtual diabetes self-management education study. METHODS Methods: Our initial recruitment plan utilized traditional strategies to recruit minority women with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes, including letters and phone calls to targeted patients, referrals from clinicians, and posted flyers. After engaging a patient advisory group and consulting with experts in community advocacy, diabetes-related stigma emerged as a prominent barrier to recruitment. The study team reviewed and revised recruitment scripts and outreach material in order to better align with the lived experience and needs of potential enrollees. RESULTS Results: Utilizing a more nuanced, community-centered recruitment approach, we achieved our target recruitment goal, enrolling 309 participants into the study, exceeding our target of 212. CONCLUSIONS Conclusions: There is a need for updated recruitment methods that can increase research participation of patients who experience internalized diabetes stigma. In order to address disparities in minority health, further research is needed to better understand diabetes-related stigma and devise strategies to avert or address it. CLINICALTRIAL NCT02726425

Purpose The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to examine the National Standards for Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) defined diabetes self-care behaviors (healthy eating, being active, taking medication, monitoring, problem solving, reducing risk, and healthy coping) in the context of older community-dwelling American Indians (AIs). Methods Secondary theme analysis of transcribed semistructured qualitative interview data from 28 participants in the Native Elder Care Study aged >60 years identified factors that influence the DSMES self-care behaviors in the context of community-dwelling AIs. Results Four themes that characterized barriers, facilitators, and opportunities for DSMES to support self-care behaviors included community food security, care partners in self-care, community opportunities for diabetes support, and blending of both health worlds. Conclusion Tribal communities have contemporary strengths and cultural traditions that can be activated to enhance diabetes self-management education and support. Diabetes educators can work in tandem with community health representatives to strengthen the social and community support within which individual AIs with type 2 diabetes mellitus live. Community-based participatory research with AI caregivers, dyads, families, youth, and Indian Health Service clinicians may help to improve tribal food policy and school health initiatives, as well as develop intergenerational interventions for modeling effective diabetes self-management.
