Correlation between diabetes knowledge (measured using the General Diabetes Knowledge Test (GDKT), score range 0-100) and HRQoL (measured using the Audit of Diabetes-dependent Quality of life (ADDQoL), score range 0~100;EQ-5D, score range-0.594 to 1) were studied using Pearson correlation coefficients. The relationship between diabetes knowledge and HRQoL was studied using 3 separate multiple linear regression (MLR) models with HRQoL scores as dependent variable and GDKT score as independent variable. No adjustment was made in the first MLR model,while socioeconomic variable(s) and socioeconomic and medical status variables were adjusted respectively in the other 2 models. Results: Data from 42 subjects with complete responses were analyzed (mean (SD) age:53.0(9.61) years, 45% female, 90% with >6 years of education, 64.3% with other chronic medical conditions, 40.5% with diabetes complications). Mean (SD) GDKT, ADDQoL and EQ-5D scores were 33.1(3.53), 46.9(18.56) and 0.9(0.15) respectively. Correlations between diabetes knowledge and ADDQoL and EQ-5D scores were 0.26 and 0.30 respectively. A comparatively modest predictive power of diabetes knowledge was found to explain the variances in ADDQoL and EQ-5D of around 12% (Model II). Conclusion: Our results showed diabetes knowledge to be modestly correlated with both diabetes-specific and generic HRQoL, indicating that diabetes knowledge may be useful as a predictor of HRQoL when modeled properly. Yet, further studies utilizing larger sample size would be required to confirm the observation.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 10:51:51 AEST ]]> Calling the poems home https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:4194 Wed 11 Apr 2018 10:03:12 AEST ]]> The relationship between knowledge management factors and the adoption of knowledge sharing: a study of Singapore organisations https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:12185 Wed 11 Apr 2018 09:16:02 AEST ]]> Board leadership structure and the financial performance of listed Chinese firms in Singapore https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:15013 Wed 11 Apr 2018 09:15:48 AEST ]]> Service quality and student/customer satisfaction in the private tertiary education sector in Singapore https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34660 Wed 10 Apr 2019 13:35:16 AEST ]]> Public participation and environmental governance in Singapore https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:31418 Wed 04 Sep 2019 09:55:19 AEST ]]> What do infectious diseases physicians do?

In contrast, drinking green tea at least 150 ml per week was associated with lower hypertension risk (OR: 0.63, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.43-0.91, P<0.05). Drinking combination of green tea and British tea was associated with higher reduction in the risk of hypertension (OR: 0.58, 95% CI: 0.39-0.85, P<0.05). This cross-sectional study suggests that consumption of tea, especially green tea and British tea, was associated with lowering the risk of hypertension. On the other hand, consumption of coffee could be a risk factor of hypertension. These findings may provide useful information for health promotion to reduce risk of hypertension and warrant further study to confirm and elucidate such association.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:34:13 AEDT ]]> E-government in Singapore: critical success factors https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28848 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:33:19 AEDT ]]> Toxicity, occupational exposure risks and management framework for nanomaterials used in Singapore https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27556 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:33:15 AEDT ]]> Marketing importance and marketing performance measurement of architecture firms in Singapore: an exploratory study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30210 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:31:04 AEDT ]]> Corporate socially responsible practice by banks in Singapore https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28499 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:29:16 AEDT ]]> An integrative review of experiences of patients with rheumatoid arthritis https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28912 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:26:00 AEDT ]]> Singapore, 'shared values' and law: non East Versus West constitutional hermeneutic https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:3519 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:20:01 AEDT ]]> Myopia, lifestyle, and schooling in students of Chinese ethnicity in Singapore and Sydney https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:4463 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:18:29 AEDT ]]> Disaster risk management and public education in Singapore https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:21927 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:16:26 AEDT ]]> Do caregivers of cancer patients receiving care in home hospice services have better quality of life?
