Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
In conclusion, our research shows that T2DM has a moderate influence on patients' HRQoL in Pakistan. The most important factors influencing this are the type of treatment, the duration of T2DM, and any complications that develop. Although some group differences were statistically significant, the effect sizes were small, indicating minimal clinical impact. Therefore, individualized and comprehensive care remains essential to improve patients' overall QoL meaningfully.
