Diabetes Connect: developing a mobile health intervention to link diabetes community health workers with primary care.
The authors tested a model for the integration of a community health worker-delivered mobile health technology intervention to improve diabetes self-management. They found that the integration of mobile health technology into community health worker programs was successfully achieved and readily accepted.

Diabetes self-management interventions for adults with type 2 diabetes living in rural areas: a systematic literature review.
The authors systematically reviewed the evidence for the impact of diabetes self-management education interventions designed for patients living in rural areas on glycemic control and other diabetes outcomes. They were able to identify examples of both telehealth interventions and face-to-face interventions that resulted in improved behavioral, biologic, and diabetes knowledge-related outcomes in adults with T2DM living in rural areas.

A qualitative study of how patients with type 2 diabetes use an electronic stand-alone personal health record.
The authors explored how patients with type 2 diabetes used a personal health record (PHR) to manage their diabetes-related health information for self-care. They found that, despite some potential positive benefits resulting from PHR use, several barriers inhibited sustained and effective use over time. They concluded that provider and patient education about the benefits of PHR use and about the potential for filling in information gaps in the provider-based record is key to engage patients and stimulate PHR adoption and use.
