摘要：
Multiple and complex health-illness transitions are required for successful diabetes self-management. Diabetes health-illness transitions influence the daily lives and interactions of Mexican immigrant women with diabetes. This article reports the findings from an intervention study designed to facilitate the health-illness transition in Mexican immigrant women with type 2 diabetes who reside in the Arizona-Sonora region of the US-Mexico border. There was a significant (P < 0.001) increase from preintervention to postintervention in diabetes knowledge and diabetes setf-efficacy and a significant decrease (P <= 0.001) in psychosocial and health-related behavior problems.
