结局指标
主要结局
Glycosylated hemoglobin level
时间窗: 6 months
Serum glycosylated hemoglobin level was measured as a baseline, then 6 months after the intervention, to measure the mean difference between the two readings.
Quality of life
时间窗: 6 months
Pediatric Quality of Life-Diabetes Module was used. The twenty-eight items in this multidimensional tool are categorized into five domains: treatment obstacles (four items), treatment adherence (seven items), concern (three items), and diabetic symptoms (eleven items).
