Do you or a loved one deal with type 2 diabetes? Your input is needed on a protocol considering how prematurity affects the development of type 2 diabetes.

Skills / interests: Consumer (public, patient, carer) input

Would you be interested in helping us with this article focused on the relationship between factors like birth weight and prematurity and the development of type 2 diabetes? 

 

I am looking for a consumer who would be willing to provide feedback for a Cochrane protocol, “The effect of birth weight and prematurity on the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus: a dose-response meta-analysis of observational studies. Cochrane considers a consumer to be a person with experience of the condition (in this case, type 2 diabetes), either as a patient or as a carer/family member of a patient. 

 

A protocol is a plan for a systematic review. Consumer input at protocol stage is integral to ensure that the completed systematic review will be helpful to patients and carers with healthcare decision making. For consumer peer review, you will be asked to complete a short form with your feedback. Our aim is for this to be a manageable task, that does not overburden consumer reviewers.   

 

Thank you in advance for considering!
