To evaluate the interrelationships among self-management dimensions, self-efficacy, and quality of life in patients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus.
Conducted a cross-sectional study of 363 diabetes patients across three public hospitals in Cao Lanh City, Vietnam.
Measured outcomes using the 35-item Diabetes Self-Management Instrument (DSMI), the 6-item Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic Disease Scale (SECD6), and the EQ-5D-5L.
Applied network analysis to model interactions between self-efficacy, quality of life, and five self-management domains.
Network analysis identified self-monitoring as holding the highest centrality within the self-management network.
Quality of life correlated directly and positively with medication adherence, self-integration, and self-efficacy, but correlated negatively with interactions with health professionals.
Self-efficacy correlated positively with self-regulation and self-monitoring, whereas it displayed an inverse correlation with medication adherence.
