The cross-sectional associations between sense of coherence and diabetic microvascular complications, glycaemic control, and patients’ conceptions of type 1 diabetes Aila J Ahola1,2,3, Markku Saraheimo1,2, Carol Forsblom1,2, Kustaa Hietala1,2, Per-Henrik Groop1,2*, the FinnDiane Study Group
Abstract Background: Sense of coherence (SOC) has been associated with various self-care behaviours in the general population. As the management of type 1 diabetes heavily relies on self-management, the SOC concept could also prove important in this population. This paper is a report of a study conducted among patients with type 1 diabetes to assess the associations between SOC and glycaemic control, microvascular complications, and patients’ conceptions of their disease. Methods: Altogether 1,264 adult patients (45% men, age range 18-82 years) with type 1 diabetes participated in this cross-sectional study. SOC was evaluated using a 13-item SOC questionnaire. Standardized assays were used to determine HbA1c. Nephropathy status was based on albumin excretion rate and retinal laser-treatment was used as an indication of severe retinopathy. Patients’ subjective conceptions of diabetes were studied using a questionnaire. Results: Higher SOC scores, reflecting stronger SOC, were associated with lower HbA1c values. Strong SOC was independently associated with reaching the HbA1c level
