Lifestyle factors, self-management and patient empowerment in diabetes care
Open accessAbstract
Although management of diabetes mellitus is improving, inadequately managed cases still exist. Prevention of diabetes mellitus requires an integrated and holistic approach based on the origin of the disease. In Europe only half of diagnosed patients with diabetes mellitus have good glycaemic control. Inadequate glycaemic control is significantly increasing the use of healthcare resources, the medical costs and mortality rates. A review was conducted in order to summarise and discuss central themes for prevention. A search of the databases PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane and Google Scholar between January 2010–May 2019 was undertaken. The following keywords: ‘diabetes mellitus’, ‘cardiovascular diseases’, ‘empowerment’, ‘self-management education’ and ‘lifestyle factors’ were used in different combinations to identify eligible articles. Important variables for the prevention of diabetes mellitus and its complications are self-management of diabetes mellitus and the management of risk factors. Education and support for self-management are fundamental when caring for people with a chronic disease like diabetes mellitus. In order to achieve effective self-management including lifestyle modification it is also crucial to motivate people. In this review, the role of the three main pillars in diabetes care are identified and discussed; patient empowerment, self-management education and lifestyle modification in the management of people with diabetes mellitus.

Diabetes is directly influenced by various lifestyle factors, and lifestyle modifications are the cornerstones of nonpharmacological management of T2DM.
“Given that diabetes is directly influenced by various lifestyle factors, lifestyle modifications, including dietary changes, weight management, increased physical activity, smoking cessation, and psychological support, are the cornerstones of nonpharmacological management of the condition [4,6-10].”

The Lifestyle modification section (page unavailable) identifies obesity, poor diet, smoking and physical inactivity as modifiable diabetes risk factors, and lists weight control, dietary changes, smoking cessation and exercise as lifestyle modifications. The Discussion treats lifestyle modification as central to diabetes management. The paper discusses emotional and peer support under Modes of delivery, but does not identify psychological support as a lifestyle modification, so the full list is not supported. (LLM, conf=0.84)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredDiabetes management requires substantial diabetes-related knowledge and health literacy.
“In addition, it requires substantial diabetes-related knowledge and health literacy, enabling patients to make well-informed decisions about their lifestyle choices [8,14].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
