BMC Public Health, 08/20/2012
Williams ED et al. – These analyses indicate the efficacy of the Australian TLC Diabetes program with clinically significant post–intervention improvements in both glycaemic control and mental HRQL. These observed improvements, if supported and maintained by an ongoing program such as this, could significantly reduce diabetes–related complications in the longer term. Given the accessibility and feasibility of this kind of program, it has strong potential for providing effective, ongoing support to many individuals with diabetes in the future.
