Abstract
Glycemic control is considered the primary therapeutic goal for management of diabetes. This study confirmed the mediating role of self-efficacy and self-management behaviors on the association between social support and glycemic control. Social support should be recognized as a key element in new interventions to improve glycemic control in routine practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
