Social Support for Thai Adults with Type 2 Diabetes: A Case–Control Study
Social support of Thai T2DM patients is higher than control group. It can either be originated from a newly acquired peer groups network or from the positive social support by family. Future research should focus on behavioral intervention including family and peers to help them understand their role in life-style modification and management of such a prevalent chronic disease.
