Babey SH, Wolstein J, Diamant AL, Goldstein H. (2016). Prediabetes in California: Nearly Half of California Adults on Path to Diabetes [Policy brief]. UCLA Center for Health Policy Research and California Center for Public Health Advocacy. https://healthpolicy.ucla.edu/publications/Documents/PDF/2016/prediabetes-brief-mar2016.pdf

This article is helpful it is a health policy brief with research conducted on diabetics in different counties within California. 55% of California is either prediabetic or diabetic. The results in the numbers are resourceful in proving how serious of a problem this is. It also looks and Latinos with diabetes and Latinos are a majority in the Imperial Valley. This article gives an exact number of prediabetic people here in the Imperial Valley. This article is going to be important in giving me supportive information needed with factual numbers. It is a strong and credible source it is a research paper conducted by UCLA’s Center for Health Policy Research. It will help support the high numbers found while conducting the study in the Imperial Valley.

Kowitt, S. D., Ayala, G. X., Cherrington, A. L., Horton, L. A., Safford, M. M., Soto, S., ... & Fisher, E. B. (2017). Examining the support peer supporters provide using structural equation modeling: Nondirective and directive support in diabetes management. Annals of Behavioral Medicine, 51(6), 810-821.

This article is helpful because it talks about how less research has explored peer support characteristics. This source is convincing for its purpose because, in support programs for people having diabetes, these research examined whether there were similarities between directive and nondirective support as it has been studied in the ratings of participants support given by peer supporters and also how directive and non-directive support was related to the symptoms of depression, hemoglobin and diabetes distress. Profound thought of consideration is that nondirective support of peer supports related to lower depressive symptoms, while directive support was linked to greater symptoms of depression. This study is helpful in showing that working with diabetics, instead of only directing them, is more useful. It again is a useful tool in helping people with diabetes in our community. It allows us to see diabetics as individuals, we can work and educate them, but we also need to be supportive of them as individuals. This is not only for one person, but it involves community involvement, friends, and family.

Krass, I., Schieback, P., & Dhippayom, T. (2015). Adherence to diabetes medication: a systematic review. Diabetic Medicine, 32(6), 725-737.

This source is important because it examines the extent as well as factors that are related and connected to the strict adherence of medication-related with type 2 diabetes. This source is important because there was the involvement of papers in the current review if they showed adherence prevalence to the medication of type 2 diabetes, and adherence measures that were validated were used with an explained cut-off point to show adherence. The reported factors were classified as potential predictors if the sturdy examining the variable reported compatible findings. A serious source of consideration on this source is that strict adherence to the medication of diabetes remains a global problem. This study has shown the urgent urge to improve an agreement about what involves good diabetes adherence. There is also a need to widen the research to give information on modifying factors that can have a positive response to compliance as well as providing a focus for specific interventions to increase adherence and also increase the control of diabetes. With this, we can show the importance of having to educate the community on the importance of doing their part to help the health issue of diabetes.

Louie, S. Y. (1912). The association between depression and social support among Hispanics with type 2 diabetes in Imperial County, California (Doctoral dissertation, Health, and Human Services).

This article finds a connection between the importance of social support and Latinos with chronic disease This source or article is significant because it examines the relationship between cognitive functioning Latinos who were admitted to an intervention exercise and the symptom of depression. This source is credible for its purpose because it found out that the older adults who screened positive for depression Annotated Bibliographywere 1.58 times highly likely to have cognitive impairment controlling for conditions like comorbid chronic and demographics. As compared to the peers who had little or no symptoms of depression, reduced cognitive functioning scores were seen at each follow-up point where increased symptoms of depression 

Parada Jr, H., Horton, L. A., Cherrington, A., Ibarra, L., & Ayala, G. X. (2012). Correlates of medication non-adherence among Latinos with type 2 diabetes. The Diabetes Educator, 38(4), 552-561.

This article is helpful in the determination of the elements that are related to the medication of diabetes nonadherence in a fragment of exclusively Spanish speaking adults of Mexican origin living along the US-Mexico border, like Imperial Valley. This source is credible for its purposes to answer why? Why we have high numbers here in the Imperial Valley? The men who participated in behaviors of diabetes control more often and people with depression were highly likely to be classified as nonadherent. Among the people perceived to be Spanish dominant, safe rated health and also education was essential and negatively associated to the adherence of medication, parents with high school education and those who were rated more positively were highly likely to be classified as nonadherent as contrasted to the individuals lacking knowledge and those with poor health. Profound thought of consideration is that the outcome reflects a considerably increased medication nonadherence ranges for Latinos having type 2 diabetes and living in the rural areas along the US-Mexico border. Also, the study aimed at supporting needs addressing strategies that gives support to medication adherence like diabetes control and managing depression. It’s an opportunity for education within the community

 Soto, S. C., Louie, S. Y., Cherrington, A. L., Parada, H., Horton, L. A., & Ayala, G. X. (2015). An Ecological Perspective on Diabetes Self-care Support, Self-management Behaviors, and Hemoglobin A1C Among Latinos. The Diabetes Educator, 41(2), 214–223. https://doi.org/10.1177/0145721715569078

This article focused on teaching people with diabetes how to be self-sufficient with the support of friends/family and healthcare. This is an opportunity to show how as a community being involved in supporting diabetics, we can help make a difference. This teaches Latino diabetics how to eat healthy, including fruits and veggies into their diets. It includes having friends and family involved to help promote physical activity. It shows how practitioner intervention in teaching new behaviors of diabetes helps them manage as individuals. I think it helps to show that we need to help the individual diabetic as a community. The practitioner or other healthcare official can offer other ways to bring education to the table. It also includes getting friends and family involved in helping to reach a healthy lifestyle. I chose this article not only because it is backed by research but also one of the researchers Parada H. is from SDSU.
