“…In this study, the CC adolescents are almost three times as likely as the healthy peers to experience exclusion. Previous research has shown a more limited social integration of adolescents with CC,34 35 who were more likely to have fewer friends and lower levels of friend support. Helgeson et al 35 suggest that the self-care needed to manage illnesses like diabetes might restrict social activities and interfere with the development of close relationships with peers, and in turn, negative social interactions might lead to poorer management of the disease.…”

Besides, there is evidence that good-quality friendships are a protective factor against bullying,36 making this situation of social exclusion a vicious circle.…”

Developmentally-tailored diabetes self-care education and support are integral parts of contemporary multidisciplinary T1D care. The patient with T1D must have the support of the family and the diabetes team to maintain the rigors of diabetes management, but the specific roles of patients and families with regard to daily diabetes tasks change considerably throughout the developmental span of early childhood, middle childhood/school-age years, and adolescence. This review provides a framework of key normative developmental issues for each of these developmental stages. Within this context, ideal family diabetes management is reviewed within each developmental stage and anticipated challenges that can arise during these stages and that can adversely impact diabetes management are presented. This paper also summarizes empiric evidence for specific intervention and care strategies to support optimal diabetes management across these stages in order to maximize opportunities for a successful transfer of diabetes management tasks from parents to maturing youth. Finally, the review provides an emphasis on approaches to promote family teamwork and adolescent diabetes self-care adherence as well as opportunities to use novel technology platforms as a means to support optimal diabetes management.

“…Children with diabetes have been less adherent to treatment when they report not wanting to be different than their healthy peers and subsequently hide their illness. 63 Poor adherence to treatment may also provide unintended benefits to adolescents diagnosed with chronic illness. For example, adolescents may perceive that they are more accepted by their peers by not adhering to treatments, which can cause adverse effects (eg, cognitive or physical) and might also restrict their desire or physical ability to engage with their peers.…”

Psychosocial Barriers and Facilitators to Clinical Trial Enrollment and Adherence for Adolescents With Cancer

have not experienced the same survival gains as children and older adults diagnosed with cancer. Poor clinical trial enrollment and adherence rates among adolescents may account for some of this disparity. Although biological, regulatory, systemic, and practice-related challenges to clinical trial enrollment and adherence have been examined, studies of psychosocial factors, which can serve as barriers or facilitators to enrollment and adherence, are limited. To bring attention to these psychological factors, we reviewed existing literature on psychosocial barriers and facilitators that can affect an adolescent' s decision to enroll and adhere to a clinical trial. We also provide potential strategies to address psychosocial factors affecting clinical trial accrual and adherence. Pediatrics
