Abstract

BackgroundPatients’ illness beliefs have been associated with glycaemic control in diabetes and survival in other conditions.ObjectiveWe examined whether illness beliefs independently predicted survival in patients with diabetes and foot ulceration.MethodsPatients (n = 169) were recruited between 20...
