Behavioral programs for type 1 diabetes mellitus: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
The purpose of this review and meta-analysis was to determine the effects of behavioral programs for patients with type 1 diabetes on behavioral, clinical, and health outcomes and to investigate factors that might moderate effect. It concluded that behavioral programs for type 1 diabetes offer some benefit for glycemic control, at least at short-term follow-up, but improvement for other outcomes has not been shown.

Behavioral programs for type 2 diabetes mellitus: a systematic review and network meta-analysis.
The purpose of this review was to identify factors moderating the effectiveness of behavioral programs for adults with type 2 diabetes. It concluded that diabetes self-management education offering 10 or fewer hours of contact with delivery personnel provided little benefit. Behavioral programs seem to benefit persons with suboptimal or poor glycemic control more than those with good control.

Knowledge, attitudes, and preferences of healthy young adults regarding advance care planning: a focus group study of university students in Pittsburgh, USA.
This study used six focus groups consisting of 56 young adults (ages 18-30) to serve as a first step in exploring the knowledge of this population regarding advance care planning (ACP), their readiness to learn and act, and their views and needs toward this proactive health behavior. The findings suggest that 1) relatively few young adults fully understand ACP concepts, and 2) all young adults in the sample desired to learn more about ACP.
