摘要
We studied 98 native Greek patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Their degree of glycemic control, evaluated with glycated hemoglobin Aic levels, was correlated with perceived family support, assessed with the Family Support Scale. The different social context of Greece-and its corresponding perception of family support-influence glycemic control in a way that is at variance from data of some studies of Anglo-Saxon families. In conclusion, family support should be taken into consideration in the management of native Greek patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus.
