“…Current recommendations of the American Diabetes Association and European Association for Study of Diabetes call for “patient-centered care” [ 18 ]. As a continuity of this personalized attitude, we can observe in Polish reality an effort to include sociological aspects of diabetes in daily diabetological practice [ 9 , 19 ].…”

Objectives. The aim of the study was to examine factors which determine stress coping styles in type 2 diabetic (T2D) patients, with regard to selected demographic variables, clinical diabetes-related variables and selected psychical variables (anxiety level and assessment of depressive disorders). Methods. 50 T2D patients, aged 59.9 ± 10.2 years were assessed by Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations (CISS), Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). In the statistical analysis simple and multivariable logistic regression models were used. Results. Variables significantly increasing the selection risk of stress coping style different from preferred task-oriented strategy in a simple logistic regression model are: hypoglycemia within three months prior to the research: odds ratio (OR) = 6.86 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.25–37.61), taking antidepressants or neuroleptics: OR =15.42 (95% CI 2.42–98.33), severe depression in Beck's scale: OR = 84.00 (95% CI 6.51–1083.65), high state-anxiety level: OR = 9.60 (95% CI 1.08–85.16), and high trait-anxiety level: OR = 18.40 (95%CI 2.96–114.31), but in a multivariable model, diagnosed depression is the strongest factor: OR = 32.38 (95% CI 4.94–212.13). Conclusions. In T2D patients, the strategy to cope with stress appears to be mostly influenced by psychical predisposition.

“…[15] Completely different results were obtained by Jachimowicz et al [16], conducted among residents of a Nursing Home, where the level of self-efficacy in old age remained at a high level. The authors of other studies suggest that the factors that may affect the level of self-efficacy may include the level of education, compliance with therapeutic recommendations [17] and health behaviors [18], as well as marital status and related social support [19], which are so important in diseases chronic. In the case of type 2 diabetes, special attention is paid to specific pro-health behaviors: adherence to a diet, regular glycemic monitoring, regular physical activity, maintaining a proper body weight, maintaining perinormoglycemia, m and adherence to medical recommendations [20].…”

In the literature on prevention, health promotion and psychology, much attention is paid to the determinants of health, with particular emphasis on lifestyle and practiced health behaviors [1]. The individual choice of the type of behavior adopted depends on the patient's level of general knowledge, in particular knowledge of health care, as well as experience, motivation, recognized values and set goals. An important element of considerations on this subject is to recognize the beliefs and motives of patients' actions in the area of life that significantly affects health [2]. An important factor modifying activity in the process of maintaining biopsycho-social health or preventing complications of an existing chronic disease is the locus of health control and the sense of self-efficacy, as well as a sense of optimism in life. The paper analyzes selected psychological resources, health locus of control, self-efficacy and a sense of optimism in patients with type 2 diabetes, which are related to the process of coping with a chronic disease. A chronic disease confronts the patient with many tasks and challenges that change over time. They depend, among others on: type of disease, method of treatment, cognitive characteristics of the sick person, emotional and behavioral reaction as well as socio-cultural conditions in which the person functions.

“…The risk of the occurrence and progression of chronic complications principally depend on the effective metabolic control of diabetes mellitus; therefore, people with well-controlled disease are much less likely to be endangered by chronic complications. In addition, extraglycaemic risk factors of sclerosis, such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and obesity, also influence the progression of vascular changes [ 7 , 8 , 9 ].…”

Diabetic kidney disease belongs to the major complications of diabetes mellitus. Here, hyperglycaemia is a key metabolic factor that causes endothelial dysfunction and vascular changes within the renal glomerulus. The aim of the present study was to assess the function of the vascular endothelium in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (type 1 diabetes) by measuring selected endothelial lesion markers in blood serum. The selected markers of endothelial lesions (sVCAM-1, sICAM-1, sE-SELECTIN, PAI-1, ADMA and RAGE) were assayed by the immunoenzymatic ELISA method. The study involved 66 patients (age: 5–18 years) with type 1 diabetes and 21 healthy controls (age: 5–16 years). In the type 1 diabetes patients, significantly higher concentrations of all of the assayed markers were observed compared to the healthy controls (p < 0.001). All of the evaluated markers positively correlated with the disease duration, the age, and BMI of the patients, while only PAI-1 and sE-SELECTIN were characteristic of linear correlations with the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). It can be concluded that endothelial inflammatory disease occurs in the early stages of type 1 diabetes mellitus in children. The correlations between PAI-1, sE-SELECTIN, and eGFR suggest an advantage of these markers over other markers of endothelial dysfunction as prognostic factors for kidney dysfunction in children with type 1 diabetes.
