‘It's very hard, it's very very difficult ….’ Exploring the lived experiences of managing diabetes among young people living with type 1 diabetes in underserved communities in Ghana
Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is undergoing an epidemiological transition which is driving increases in the risk and prevalence of diabetes and other non-communicable diseases (NCDs). In Ghana, while the prevalence of diabetes is generally increasing, type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is increasing at a higher rate (9.5%) among young people compared to type 2 diabetes (4.9%) mellitus (T2DM). T1DM differs from T2DM in that it is not readily preventable, …
A qualitative study of type 1 diabetes complications, mental health, and structural pathways of complications occurrence among young people (14–24 years) and caregivers in southern Ghana
Young people (aged 14-24 years) living with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D), especially, those in low-resource settings risks having T1D complications, and poor mental health. Yet, little is known about T1D complications, mental health, and their lived experiences among young people and their caregivers in Ghana . This article sought to understand a) the dynamics of T1D complications, mental health, and lived experiences, and b) drawing on this evidence, d…
Improving Metabolic Syndrome in Ghanaian Adults with Type 2 Diabetes through a Home-Based Physical Activity Program
There is a high prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) among people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Physical activity has the potential to improve health outcomes for individuals with type 2 diabetes. Our study aim was to determine the effect of a 12-week culturally appropriate home-based physical activity program on metabolic syndrome markers and quality of life in Ghanaian adults with T2DM. A secondary objective was to examine the feasib…
