Does funded research reflect the priorities of people living with type 1 diabetes? A secondary analysis of research questions.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

This study explored the divergence and convergence between funded research about type 1 diabetes and the research agenda of people living with the condition and their carers.

Design, method, setting

A secondary analysis was undertaken of existing data from two UK organisations who regularly work with patients and carers to identify research priorities. The research ideas of people with diabetes were identified in two ways: in 15 research question generation workshops involving approximately 100 patients and carers, and in a James Lind Alliance Type 1 Diabetes Priority Setting Partnership with approximately 580 patients, carers and clinicians (clinician question submissions were excluded from analysis). A total of 859 individual research questions were collected fr
