Favorable effect sizes of household interventions on knowledge for 5 studies (N = 217) were demonstrated 0.94 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.67, 1.82]. An useful impact of interventions on GHb for eight research studies (N = 505) was likewise observed using meta-analysis [− 0.6 (95% CI − 1.2, − 0.1)]. Evidence suggests that household interventions in family or home members of individuals with diabetes might work in enhancing diabetes-related knowledge and glycemic control.
