  • Patients with higher levels of hope and social support experience less negative impact from stigma.
  • Adverse clinical outcomes are linked to diabetes stigma, particularly in young and middle-aged individuals.
  • The study highlights the importance of psychosocial factors in managing diabetes stigma and improving patient outcomes.
