Health Literacy and Health Outcomes in Diabetes: A Systematic Review
Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
There is little sufficient or consistent evidence suggesting that it is independently associated with processes or outcomes of diabetes-related care, and it may be premature to routinely screen for low health literacy as a means for improving diabetes- related health-related outcomes.Abstract:
BACKGROUND
Low health literacy is considered a potential barrier to improving health outcomes in people with diabetes and other chronic conditions, although the evidence has not been previously systematically reviewed.read more

TL;DR: Science literacy is desirable not only for individuals, but also for the health and well-being of communities and society as discussed by the authors. But science literacy has traditionally been seen as the responsibility of individuals, and, as a result, individual science literacy is limited or enhanced by the circumstances of that nesting.
