ABSTRACT
Objective: To identify, from a gender focused perspective, differences in the self-management of diabetes
mellitus type 2.
Methodology: An integrative review was conducted on several databases. 24 articles
fulfilled the inclusion criteria – 13 quantitative and 11 qualitative. The articles were mainly published
in the USA and Canada.
Results: On the one hand, women were found to comply better with proper
diets and medication prescriptions, but showed having less social support and more psychological
problems, a situation which they tended to address through religion, pray, faith, and spirituality. On
the other hand, men were found to comply better with proper physical activity programs, but showed
having less knowledge and more alcohol and tobacco consumption, but more social support though.
Conclusions: Differences between men and women were found in relation to their self-managing of
diabetes mellitus type 2. This situation prompts the nursing personnel to orient their interventions
with a gender focused perspective. For instance, women need to improve their exercising and also
receive more social, psychological and spiritual supports, while men need to improve their diet and
medication related habits.
