Prof. Abeer Al-Assaf Participated at the Diabetes and Well-Being Conference 8 - 9, November 2024
Prof Abeer Alassaf presented our group's work on the: Effect on Glycemic Control of an Early Intensive Dietary Structured Education Program for Newly Diagnosed Children with Type 1 Diabetes in Jordan and she showed that our dietary structured education program was associated with better glycemic control than conventional diabetes education, at 6 and 12 months after diagnosis. It had a positive effect, mainly in PwD patients who are older than 5 years and had higher maternal educational level.
This emphasizes the important of education in the management of people with T1D.
