Role of Sleep Disturbances and Diabetes‐Related Distress on Glycemic Control: A Path Analysis
ABSTRACT Despite advancements in diabetes management technology, many patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) struggle to achieve optimal glycemic control. Sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and insomnia are common in T2D and linked to poor glycemic control. Insomnia, particularly with short sleep duration, may worsen glycemic control by
