Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Diabetology (ISSN 2673-4540) is an international, open access journal. In this Special Issue of Diabetology, we invite researchers to submit their works on the development, testing, and implementation of lifestyle behavior interventions into practice for the prevention and management of diabetes. The instructions on how to proceed with writing will be available on a dedicated web page. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Studies of those with or at risk of diabetes to understand their lifestyle behaviors and inform the development of interventions;
- Qualitative, quantitative, or mixed-method studies to evaluate novel lifestyle behavior interventions for diabetes prevention or management;
- Implementation science studies examining the translation of lifestyle behavior interventions for diabetes prevention and/or management into community, healthcare, workplace, or other settings.
We invite you to submit original research articles, systematic reviews, narrative reviews, or short communications on this topic. We look forward to your contributions.
Dr. Freya MacMillan
Guest Editor
