“…The present study has shown that the longer duration of the disease is negatively correlated with the metabolic control in the group of patients with diabetes. Similar conclusions were formulated by Badura-Brzoza et al [17]. These relationships may also be explained by the burnout syndrome associated with reluctance to control glycemia appearing several years after the onset of the disease [24].…”

“…In the analyzed studies, there was no correlation between the SWLS scores and the duration of the disease, but a significant correlation was found between SWLS and the age of the respondents: the older the patients, the greater the percentage of declared life satisfaction. As reported by some researchers, the longer duration of the disease was negatively correlated with the assessment of life satisfaction [17,20,21]. In the present study, no significant relationship was found between the duration of diabetes and life satisfaction.…”

Objective: The aim of the research was to determine the relationship between life satisfaction and the level of glycated hemoglobin in people suffering from diabetes. Materials and methods: The Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) by E. Diner (a Polish adaptation by Z. Juczynski) was used and the HbA1c value of patients with diabetes was determined using the Bayer A1cNow + analyzer. The study included 104 people. The research was conducted in 2021. Results: A high level of the Satisfaction with Life Scale was obtained by 68.3% of the respondents, 15.4% of the respondents achieved an average result, 16.3% of the respondents were characterized by a low level of satisfaction with life. The life satisfaction of people with diabetes was influenced by education, age, place of residence, and the level of glycated hemoglobin. The glycated hemoglobin results of 70.2% of the respondents were normal. Every third respondent (29.8%) had a result above 7%. The average level of the indicator in question was 7.0 +/-1.2. The type of treatment and the frequency of tests performed had an impact on the average HbA1c level. The age of the respondents and the frequency of the tests performed had an influence on the correct values of glycated hemoglobin. Conclusions: Life satisfaction increased with the decrease in glycated hemoglobin. Diverse research reports on the discussed issues indicate a further need for in-depth analyses.

“…Diabetes is a chronic disease that requires ongoing medical management to reduce the risk of acute and chronic complications and improve QoL [ 47 , 48 ]. However, patients with diabetes may be deeply affected by poor blood sugar control, long-term diet and drug control symptoms, and a variety of complications of physical damage, so that patients feel physically and mentally exhausted, QoL seriously decreased, easy to cause negative emotions [ 49 – 51 ]. A study has shown that PR is an important predictor of QoL, reducing anxiety and depression and enabling individuals to achieve a higher QoL [ 52 ].…”

Background Although some factors, such as stigma and empowerment, influence the complex relationship between psychological resilience and quality of life, few studies have explored similar psychological mechanisms among patients with diabetes. Therefore, this study explored the mediating role of stigma and the moderating role of empowerment in the psychological mechanisms by which psychological resilience affects quality of life. Methods From June to September 2022, data were collected by multi-stage stratified sampling and random number table method. Firstly, six tertiary hospitals in Wuhu were numbered and then selected using the random number table method, resulting in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College being selected. Secondly, two departments were randomly selected from this hospital: endocrinology and geriatrics. Thirdly, survey points were set up in each department, and T2DM patients were randomly selected for questionnaire surveys. In addition, we used the Connor-Davidson Elasticity Scale (CD-RISC) to measure the psychological resilience of patients, and used the Stigma Scale for Chronic Illness (SSCI) to measure stigma. Empowerment was measured by the Diabetes Empowerment Scale (DES). Quality of Life was assessed by the Diabetes Quality of Life Scale (DQoL). We used SPSS (version 21) and PROCESS (version 4.1) for data analysis. Results (1) Psychological resilience was negatively correlated with stigma and quality of life, and positively correlated with empowerment. Stigma was positively associated with empowerment and quality of life. Empowerment was negatively correlated with quality of life. (2) The mediation analysis showed that psychological resilience had a direct predictive effect on the quality of life, and stigma partially mediated the relationship; Empowerment moderates the first half of "PR → stigma → quality of life"; Empowerment moderates the latter part of "PR → stigma → quality of life." Conclusions Under the mediating effect of stigma, psychological resilience can improve quality of life. Empowerment has a moderating effect on the relationship between psychological resilience and stigma, and it also has a moderating effect on the relationship between stigma and quality of life. These results facilitate the understanding of the relationship mechanisms between psychological resilience and quality of life.

The association between health-related role limitations in the mental and physical subdomains and clinical status (i.e., chronic disease and comorbid depressive symptoms) is mediated by health-promoting behaviors. To enhance health-promoting behaviors in adults with chronic disease, it is necessary to identify item-level associations among targets of health-related monitoring and management. Therefore, the current study used a network approach to examine associations among health-related role limitations, depressive symptoms, existential well-being, socioeconomic position, and health-promoting behavior in adults with chronic disease. A total of 535 adults (mean ± SD age = 62.9 ± 11.9 years; males, n = 231, females, n = 304) who were regularly visiting an outpatient clinic for chronic disease treatment participated in this cross-sectional study. Data on participant demographics, chronic disease diagnoses, socioeconomic status, health-related role limitations (12-item short form survey scores), depressive symptoms (patient health questionnaire-9 scores), existential well-being (scores for four items of the McGill quality of life questionnaire-Revised), and health-promoting behavior (Healthy Habits Questionnaire scores) were acquired. “Undirected regularized partial correlations” and “directional joint probability distributions” among these variables were calculated using a mixed graphical model (MGM) and directed acyclic graph (DAG). In the MGM, the most influential nodes were emotional well-being, feelings of failure, and health-related limitations affecting usual role and physical activities. According to both the MGM and DAG, the relationship between emotional well-being and feelings of failure mediated the relationships of health-related role limitations with concentration difficulty and suicidal ideation. A positive mindset was dependent on the probability distributions of suicidal ideation, controllability of life, and positive self-image. Both the meaning of life and a positive mindset had direct associations with proactive living. Specifically, proactive living was associated with a balanced diet, regular exercise, volunteering in the community, and nurturing intimacy in social interactions. The meaning and controllability of life in individuals with chronic diseases could mediate the relationships of health-promoting behavior with health-related limitations related to usual role activities, physical activities, and depressive symptoms. Thus, interventions targeting health-promoting behaviors should aim to enhance the meaning and controllability of life (as it pertains to limitations in usual role and physical activities), as well as promote proactive screening and timely psychiatric treatment of depressive symptoms including feelings of failure, concentration difficulties, and suicidal ideation.
