Identifying and prioritizing the barriers and facilitators to the self-management of type 2 diabetes mellitus: a community-centered approach.
The researchers sought to develop and test an instrument to identify and quantify the barriers and facilitators to self-management of type 2 diabetes. The study concluded that factors impacting self-management can be quantified and categorized as barriers and facilitators. Further refinement to some factors and investigation into alternative prioritization methods is necessary.

Use of complementary health approaches among diverse primary care patients with type 2 diabetes and association with cardiometabolic outcomes: from the SF Bay Collaborative Research Network (SF Bay CRN).
The purpose of this study is to describe use of complementary health approaches (CHAs) among patients with type 2 diabetes, and independent associations between CHA use and Hemoglobin A1c (A1C) and lower-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. The study concluded that CHA use is common among patients with type 2 diabetes and may be associated with poor cardiometabolic control and medication adherence.
