"Misconceptions about smoking in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a contextual review.
The study substantiates information on the various misconceptions advanced on smoking patients who happen to have type 2 diabetes mellitus. The importance of the review is that it explains clearly about smoking behaviors, the various known perceptions about smoking cessation, and the conditions that are linked with the idea of quitting smoking amongst the people with type 2 diabetes. The study's bias is that it does not explain the source of the misconceptions and how to handle them. The study asserts that the quitting process amongst people with type 2 diabetes is challenging due to psychological addiction, weight gain that comes after quitting smoking, and influence from smoking peers.Chen, Lei, Dianna J. Magliano, and Paul Z. Zimmet. "The worldwide epidemiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus—present and future perspectives." Nature Reviews Endocrinology 8.4 (2012): 228-236.The scholarly work evaluates how type 2 diabetes has become a global epidemic. It gives various factors that have contributed to its widespread. The worth of the study is that it provides statistics to show how the epidemic has spread around the world.Chrvala, Carole A., Dawn Sherr, and Ruth D. Lipman. "Diabetes self-management education for adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A systematic review of the effect on glycemic control." Patient education and counseling 99.6 (2016): 926-943.The primary aim of the article is to evaluate the effectiveness of self-management awareness in the management of type 2 diabetes. Besides, the study provides a detailed explanation of the effect of education on self-management methods in the control of blood sugar.Dunkley, Alison J., et al. "Diabetes prevention in the real world: effectiveness of pragmatic lifestyle interventions for the prevention of type 2 diabetes and of the impact of adherence to guideline recommendations." Diabetes Care 37.4 (2014): 922-933.The authors of the article recommend different ways in which type 2 diabetes can be prevented and managed through lifestyle interventions. The study is critical since it shows the significance of adhering to guidelines on lifestyle interventions that are meant to control type 2 diabetes.Følling, Ingrid S., et al. "Exploring lifestyle and risk in preventing type 2 diabetes-a nested qualitative study of older participants in a lifestyle intervention program (VEND-RISK)." BMC public health16.1 (2016): 876.The scope of this article is to investigate the lifestyle of older adults and the risks that are associated with type 2 diabetes. Therefore, the study emphasizes the understanding of the effect of providing the resources required for living an active lifestyle and being placed in a condition where the risk of developing type 2 diabetes is high. The biased in is the study is that it only focuses on the older people who have type 2 diabetes in its intervention program, instead of all both old and younger people with type 2 diabetes.Look AHEAD Research Group. "Cardiovascular effects of intensive lifestyle intervention in type 2 diabetes." N Engl J med2013.369 (2013): 145-154.The research shows the connection between cardiovascular effects of lifestyle changes meant to manage type 2 diabetes. The importance of the study is that it provides an evaluation of the lifestyle intervention adopted by type 2 diabetes patients. The study asserts that the lifestyle interventions have a cardiovascular effect.McDonald, Julie, Rohan Jayasuriya, and Mark Fort Harris. "The influence of power dynamics and trust on multidisciplinary collaboration: a qualitative case study of type 2 diabetes mellitus." BMC health services research 12.1 (2012): 63.The case study explains the influence of power dynamics and trust on the association between the health practitioners who are concerned with the management of diabetes and their effect on the experiences of the patient. The prominence of the research is that it shows the appropriate choices made by the health professional are strongly affected by power dynamics and trust. The study is biased in that it only focuses on the power dynamics and confidence amongst health practitioners, but does not provide solutions that should be taken to address the situation.Muchiri, Jane, Gerda Gericke, and Paul Rheeder. "Subjects’ experiences of a nutrition education programme: a qualitative study of adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus living in a rural resource-limited setting in South Africa." South African Journal of Clinical Nutrition 29.2 (2016): 83-89.The review explores the experiences and perspectives of the adults living with type 2 diabetes. The study limits itself to adult people with type 2 diabetes living in suburb areas. The study is key to the topic of discussion since it shows experiences that a nutrition education programme can bring to people with type 2 diabetes living in the rural areas.Taylor, Roy. "Type 2 Diabetes." Diabetes Care 36.4 (2013): 1047-1055.The academic work explores the use of hypocaloric diet to reverse type 2 diabetes to maintain proper metabolic regulation. The study is significant to the topic of discussion as it provides information on how type 2 diabetes can be studied and manipulated through induced healthy body condition.Works CitedAmerican Diabetes Association.
