description Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a disease that impacts a huge portion of the world's population. The number of T2D cases is expected to keep rising during the next decade. Committing to the treatment to manage this condition makes participants feel a burden of emotions making them require emotional support from caregivers or close ones. Support from family or caregivers can help improve glycaemia control, medication adherence, and T2D self-management. However, little is known about what aspects of social support effectively improve patients' T2D self-management outcomes. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to identify the effective components of social support that can help participants improve their T2D self-management. Methods: The protocol of this review was developed based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The PRISMA recommendations were applied to develop a search strategy in collaboration with a team of academics to identify relevant T2D social support interventions via healthcare and psychology databases, Medline, Web of Science, ProQuest, CINHAL. Discussion: This review will provide an overview of what intervention social support components have a significant impact on T2D glycaemia control. These findings will inform future T2D interventions on what social support components could be used to encourage better diabetes self-management and glycemic control.
