| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to develop and refine a gender-differentiated support program to promote self-monitoring, focusing on the shift in body sensation associated with secondary sexual characteristics and the recapturing of body sensation in patients who have reached adolescence and young adulthood after developing type 1 diabetes during childhood.
The study collected and analyzed data as self-management experiences of males with type 1 diabetes in adolescence in order to compare the results with the results of interviews with women worked on in 2016-2018, along with a literature review of support programs for adolescent and young adult patients in Japan and abroad, in terms of gender differences. Pre-interviews were also conducted with certified diabetes nurses and nurses in pediatric wards and outpatient clinics to collect and analyze data on support for adolescent and young adult patients.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
二次性徴の開始となる思春期から青年期の身体的変化の大きい時期に、それまでの自己管理の経験とは異なる異常血糖時の症状や身体感覚のずれを調整し、身体感覚の捉え直しを行うことで新たな自己管理能力が獲得できるものと推測される。自己管理能力を獲得することで、病気をもつ自己というアイデンティティやジェンダーアイデンティティの確立にも有用と考える。そこで身体的・心理的変化の大きい、この時期に成人期を見据えた効果的な支援プログラムの開発が急務であると考える。
