Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As Guest Editor and co-Guest Editor of a Diabetology Special Issue, titled “Healthy Habits of Diabetes: Prevention, Intervention and Management Strategies”, we invite you to submit an original research article, systematic review, or narrative review on this topic. Diabetology (ISSN 2673-4540) is an international, open access journal. In this Special Issue of Diabetology, we invite researchers to submit their work on the development, testing, and implementation of prevention, intervention, and management strategies of diabetes. The deadline for paper submission is January 10, 2026, and the instructions on how to proceed with writing will be available on a dedicated web page. We welcome submissions on research areas that include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Modifiable Risk Factors for Diabetes Prevention: Studies of modifiable risk factors for diabetes prevention: lifestyle, behavioral, environmental, and biological risk factors that can be modified to prevent diabetes to inform the development of interventions;
- Prevention, Intervention, and Management Strategies: Qualitative, quantitative, or mixed-methods studies to examine novel strategies for diabetes prevention, interventions, and management strategies for diabetes;
- Implementation Science and Real-World Applications: Implementation studies that translate evidence-based diabetes interventions into community, healthcare, workplace, or other settings that assess feasibility, fidelity, sustainability, and scalability.
