Self-monitoring of blood glucose in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who are not using insulin

Diabetes knowledge predicts HbA1c levels of people with type 2 diabetes mellitus in rural China: a ten-month follow-up study

“…As reported in Table 3 , most participants had poor medication adherence and a low level of DSM due to a lack of diabetes knowledge. It is noted that SMBG was not associated with HbA1c levels (Supplementary Table S4 ) in this study, which was inconsistent with the meta-analysis research 61 . Actually, the relationship between SMBG and HbA1c levels remains unclear.…”

Younger people with Type 2 diabetes have poorer self‐care practices compared with older people: results from the Australian National Diabetes Audit

“…Consistent with previous studies (where medication adherence ranges from 70% to 99%), we found that medication adherence was reasonably good, and associated with lower HbA 1c . Previous data also suggest that psychological factors such as depression or diabetes distress play an important role in medication adherence .…”

At-home blood self-sampling in rheumatology: a qualitative study with patients and health care professionals

“…Our results are in line with findings on self-sampling concepts from other medical domains: In diabetes management, self-collection of blood has been extensively studied [ 33 ]. Additionally, there is also evidence that self-swabs in screening for sexually transmitted infections are useful tools that support the diagnosis of human papilloma virus [ 34 ].…”
