Abstract Aim: To develop a diabetes education model based on individual beliefs, knowledge and risk awareness, aimed at migrants with type 2 diabetes, living in Sweden. Background: Type 2 diabetes is rapidly increasing globally, particularly affecting migrants living in developed countries. There is ongoing debate about what kind of teaching method gives the best result, but few studies have evaluated different methods for teaching migrants. Previous studies lack a theoretical base and do not proceed from the individuals’ own beliefs about health and illness, underpinned by their knowledge, guiding their health-related behaviour. Methods: A diabetes education model was developed to increase knowledge about diabetes and to influence self-care among migrants with type 2 diabetes. The model was based on literature review, on results from a previous study investigating knowledge about diabetes, on experience from studies of beliefs about health and illness, and on collaboration between researchers in diabetes care and migration and health and staff working in a multi-professional diabetes team. Findings: This is a culturally appropriate diabetes education model proceeding from individual beliefs about health and illness and knowledge, conducted in focus-group discussions in five sessions, led by a diabetes specialist nurse in collaboration with a multi-professional team, and completed within three months. The focus groups should include 4–5 persons and last for about 90 min, in the presence of an interpreter. A thematic interview guide should be used, with broad open-ended questions and descriptions of critical situations/health problems. Discussions of individual beliefs based on knowledge are encouraged. When needed, healthcare staff present at the session answer questions, add information and ensure that basic principles for diabetes care are covered. The diabetes education model is tailored to both individual and cultural aspects and can improve knowledge about type 2 diabetes, among migrants and thus increase self-care behaviour and improve health.

Objective: The aims of this study were to (1) quantify the development and composition of multimorbidity (MM) during 16 years following the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes and (2) evaluate whether the effectiveness of structured personal diabetes care differed between patients with and without MM. Research design and methods: One thousand three hundred eighty-one patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes were randomized to receive either structured personal diabetes care or routine diabetes care. Patients were followed up for 19 years in Danish nationwide registries for the occurrence of outcomes. We analyzed the prevalence and degree of MM based on 10 well-defined disease groups. The effect of structured personal care in diabetes patients with and without MM was analyzed with Cox regression models. Results: The proportion of patients with MM increased from 31.6% at diabetes diagnosis to 80.4% after 16 years. The proportion of cardiovascular and gastrointestinal diseases in surviving patients decreased, while, for example, musculoskeletal, eye, and neurological diseases increased. The effect of the intervention was not different between type 2 diabetes patients with or without coexisting chronic disease. Conclusions: In general, the proportion of patients with MM increased after diabetes diagnosis, but the composition of chronic disease changed during the 16 years. We found cardiovascular and musculoskeletal disease to be the most prevalent disease groups during all 16 years of follow-up. The post hoc analysis of the intervention showed that its effectiveness was not different among patients who developed MM compared to those who continued to have diabetes alone.
