INTRODUCTION
Persons of South Asian descent have a higher prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The management of T2DM in the South Asian community has required the support of adult children, potentially impacting the quality of life, diabetes-related knowledge, and risk perception among these caregivers.
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
To investigate diabetes-related knowledge, quality of life, risk perception, and actual risk of developing diabetes among South Asian young adults whose parents are living with T2DM. A cross-sectional study was conducted (n=150). An online survey was administered. Data were analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics.
RESULTS
There was a statistically significant difference in diabetes-related knowledge between males and females (p<0.001). Males (in comparison to females) had a lower risk perception of developing diabetes (p=0.06). Further, risk perception and diabetes-related knowledge were positively associated with caregiver's physical health (p0.002).
CONCLUSION
Findings highlight the importance of providing gender-specific and culturally tailored diabetes educational interventions.
简介
南亚裔人群的 2 型糖尿病（T2DM）患病率较高。南亚社区 T2DM 的管理需要成年子女的支持，这可能会影响这些照顾者的生活质量、糖尿病相关知识和风险感知。
研究设计和方法
调查父母患有 T2DM 的南亚年轻成年人的糖尿病相关知识、生活质量、风险感知以及实际患糖尿病的风险。进行了一项横断面研究（n=150）。通过在线调查进行了管理。使用描述性和推断性统计数据进行了数据分析。
结果
男性和女性之间的糖尿病相关知识存在统计学显著差异（p<0.001）。男性（与女性相比）对患糖尿病的风险感知较低（p=0.06）。此外，风险感知和糖尿病相关知识与照顾者的身体健康呈正相关（p0.002）。
结论
研究结果强调了提供针对性别和文化的糖尿病教育干预的重要性。
