The relationship of Type 1 diabetes self-management barriers to child and parent quality of life: a US cross-sectional study

Type 1 diabetes can reduce health‐related quality of life (QOL) for children, adolescents and their parents. Families of children and adolescents with Type 1 diabetes experience self-management challenges that negatively impact diabetes control. A team of authors, including HIP Investigator Dr. Elizabeth Cox, assessed whether self-management challenges are also associated with quality of life (QOL) for children and adolescents with Type 1 diabetes and their parents.
