Health-related quality of life and its associated factors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Abstract

The mean scores for health-related quality of life in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were moderate in this study, and this finding is consistent with health-related quality-of-life scores reported in other studies conducted in the Middle East region. Therefore, health-related quality of life should be the most important consideration in the management of patients. In parallel, some factors, especially gender, should be considered to improve health-related quality of life.
