“…The subjective assessement of the patients' quality of life is affected by clinical, as well as social and demographic factors [22], which is also indicated by other researchers from Central Europe [23].…”

“…The issue of the QoL is also addressed by the International Diabetes Federation which considers the quality of life as one of the fundamental goals of diabetes care, along with metabolic control and prevention. This is because it has been proven that laboratory results which are so important for physicians, are important for patients with DM only to the extent that they affect their physical, emotional and social well-being, namely the quality of life [22].…”

“…The results are consistent with those of other authors. In a study by Badura-Brzoza et al (2022), the level of disease acceptance was 29.7 points in patients with type 1 diabetes and 31.6 points in those with type 2 diabetes [31]. Bonikowska et al (2021) demonstrated that the level of AIS was 28.5 points in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes [32].…”

Numerous complications of type 1 diabetes (T1D) may be prevented through suitable glycemic control. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) may be one of the markers for the early detection of the metabolic imbalance characteristic of the disease. However, optimal control of diabetes is not achieved in a large group of patients. It was demonstrated that numerous factors (sociodemographic, psychological, and clinical) contributed to this condition. The aim of the study was to identify factors influencing the control of diabetes measured via glycated hemoglobin concentrations in people with T1D. Independent factors influencing better diabetes control measured via HbA1c in the study group included higher disease acceptance, higher nutritional adherence, lower BMI, and a lower risk of eating disorders. Describing the determinants will allow for the improvement of the system of care provided to people with T1D and for it to comprise important psychological variables related to self-care and acceptance of the disease.

“…Two previous studies demonstrated higher SWLS-scores in the general population (mean 25.6 ± 5.3 in men, 25.7 ± 5.8 in women) ( 19 ) and in healthy young adults (26.18 ± 5.72) ( 20 ). Lower SWLS-scores were demonstrated in patients with active Crohn's disease (mean 20.8 ± 8.6 in men, 20.9 ± 7.8 in women) ( 11 ), patients with psychiatric disorders (mean 20.1 ± 7.8) ( 21 ), type 2 diabetes mellitus (mean 20.0 ± 5.0) ( 22 ), and in Parkinson disease (mean 21.6 ± 7.0 in men, 20.4 ± 6.2 in women) ( 23 ). Our results are comparable with a study by Sarid et al with similar SWLS-scores in patients with Crohn's disease in remission (23.8 ± 6.4 in men, 23.8 ± 6.7 in women) ( 11 ).…”

Background: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) has a major impact on emotional, social, and professional life. This study aimed to evaluate general life satisfaction, a subjective measure of well-being, in IBS patients, and to determine which factors are associated with higher life satisfaction. Methods: IBS patients (n=195, mean age 51.4±16.5 years, 73.8% female) recruited from primary and secondary/tertiary care completed questionnaires regarding gastrointestinal symptoms, quality of life, psychological factors, and life satisfaction (Satisfaction With Life Scale, SWLS, 5 items, range 5-35). A finite mixture model analysis was performed to identify latent classes. Multivariable linear regression was used to identify variables associated with life satisfaction. Results: 71.3% of the patients were satisfied about their life (SWLS-score ≥21). Three latent subgroups could be identified with significantly higher life satisfaction in the subgroup with higher mental quality of life, fewer anxiety and depressive symptoms, lower GI specific anxiety, and lower GI symptom severity, compared to the other two groups. Multivariable linear regression showed that higher physical quality of life (B0.168, p<0.001) and higher mental quality of life (B0.199, p<0.001) were associated with higher life satisfaction. Using multivariable regression, no significant association was found between gastrointestinal symptom severity and life satisfaction. Conclusions: Higher physical and mental quality of life, but not gastrointestinal symptom severity, were independently associated with higher general life satisfaction in IBS. These findings reinforce the clinical need in IBS treatment to focus on the full extent of the disorder and not merely on gastrointestinal symptom improvement. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00775060.
