“…As novel therapies are developed with potential for better outcomes, including the possibility of achieving near normoglycemia [21], it is important to understand how people with T2D view the benefits and risks associated with new treatment options. The results of the current study and prior studies suggest that participants have extremely varied experiences and perspectives in terms of their diagnostic and treatment histories and their perceptions of the impact of T2D on their lives [26][27][28][29]. However, to date, there has been very little research on the perceptions and expectations of people with diabetes about their future with the condition.…”

Initial percentage of agreement was 62% on independently coded transcripts, with coding pairs reaching 100% consensus on all final codes through discussion, for a similar approach see St George et al, 2017 [34].…”

“…8 Furthermore, investigations on adolescents and parents' perceptions prior to, and at the point when a diagnosis of T2D is made were rare, as studies have mainly focused on the perceptions about self-management after diagnosis. [9][10][11][12] Based on previous studies, the perceived likelihood of receiving a T2D diagnosis among the general population of adolescents and their parents appears to be low, even when adolescents have existing risk factors like obesity. 13 The perceived risk of T2D not only affects the process of receiving a diagnosis, but also plays an important role in adolescents' participation in health promoting behaviors that contribute to T2D prevention and management.…”
