Methods: Following convenient sampling, this cross-sectional, correlational study was conducted among 225 patients with type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome from an outpatient clinic in a suburban area of Beijing, China. Hierarchical multiple regression and mediation analysis were performed to explore the effect of health information literacy on self-management practice and hemoglobin A1c in this sample. The STROBE guidelines for cross-sectional studies were followed. Results: The findings showed incompetent health information literacy, inadequate self-management behavior, and suboptimal glycemic control in a sample of patients with type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Based on social cognitive theory, the results of regression analysis indicated that self-management attitude, health problem-solving, and chronic illness resources were correlated with self-management practice, and health problem-solving and health information evaluation were correlated with hemoglobin A1c. Mediation analysis revealed that self-management attitude, health problem-solving, and chronic disease resources fully mediated the effect of health information literacy on self-management practice. There was an indirect effect of health information literacy on hemoglobin A1c through health problem-solving. Conclusions: The findings demonstrated that health information literacy has significant indirect and direct effects on self-management behavior and glycemic control through self-management attitude, health problem-solving, and chronic disease resources in a sample of patients with type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
