“…In addition, our results showed that diabetes self‐management is not associated with age and level of education. However, studies by Alrahbi () and D'Souza et al () found that HbA1c values, age and diabetes education are significantly associated with self‐management behaviours among adults with type 2 diabetes. The discrepancies between our study and other studies might have occurred because the participants in this study were mostly older adults and illiterate, which resulted in the lack of a significant relationship between self‐management and glycaemic control.…”

“…In a previous study by Shao Y et al, improvement of self-efficacy positively contributed to a decline in the HbA1c level through social supportive education. 14 However, adults with type 2 diabetes with poor glycaemic control were more likely to have poor self-efficacy and self-care behaviours, as reported by D'Souza MS et al15 Although a national investigative report about diabetes management in type 2 diabetes patients has not been conducted in China, insufficient understanding of the disease by the patients is evident from the current SMBG practices. Our results indicate that diabetes self-efficacy or the capacity for diabetes management can be improved by structured SMBG.…”
