Motivation for Treatment Correlating Most Strongly with an Increase in Satisfaction with Type 2 Diabetes Treatment.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

We previously reported several factors that cross-sectionally correlate with treatment satisfaction in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes visiting diabetes clinics. The aim of this study is to identify factors associated with longitudinal changes in treatment satisfaction in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Methods

The study included 649 patients with type 2 diabetes treated with oral glucose-lowering agents who completed the first questionnaire in 2016. The collected data included scores from the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire (DTSQ) and other parameters regarding diabetes treatment. We analyzed 1-year longitudinal changes in DTSQ scores and investigated factors associated with these changes.

Results

Univariate linear regression analyses
