AB  - BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic and life-threatening 
      disease. Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is vital for individuals with 
      T2DM. However, little is known about the impact of psychological stability 
      factors on HRQoL among individuals with T2DM in mainland China. METHODS: This 
      multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted in five tertiary grade-A 
      hospitals in Chongqing, China, from January to December 2019. A total of 385 
      individuals with T2DM were included by the convenient sample method. Fear of 
      Progression (FOP) Questionnaire-short Form, Hypoglycemia Fear Survey II, 
      diabetes-management self-efficacy scale, and EuroQol-5 Dimensions were used for 
      data collection. RESULTS: The mean age of the 385 individuals was 57.65 
      (SD = 15.15) years, three-quarters of whom had a high school or above education 
      level. The participants in our study had moderate HRQoL and were more likely to 
      have poor scores in the pain/discomfort dimension. The FOP level was moderate on 
      average, and 23.1% of individuals suffered from psychological dysfunction. The 
      participants had higher levels of fear of hypoglycemia (FOH) and self-efficacy 
      (SE). Multiple steppage-regression analysis predicted that higher levels of FOP 
      and FOH, reduced SE, older age, longer duration since diagnosis, lower 
      educational attainment, higher levels of HbA1c, and living with comorbid 
      conditions were related to lower HRQoL. CONCLUSION: This study showed that the 
      HRQoL among Chinese T2DM patients may be impaired by increased FOP and FOH, 
      decreased SE, and poor glycemic control. In addition, as the patient's age and 
      duration since diagnosis increase, their HRQoL further declines. We recommend 
      improving HRQoL by encouraging individuals to attain more health education and 
      resilience skills to enhance SE and reduce negative emotions among individuals 
      with T2DM.
