A cross-sectional study was conducted from February to April 2025 among 144 patients with T2DM attending the endocrinology outpatient clinic of Ulin Regional General Hospital, Banjarmasin, Indonesia. Sociodemographic data were collected using a structured questionnaire. Diabetes distress was measured using the Diabetes Distress Scale (DDS-17). Diabetes knowledge, medication knowledge, and medication adherence were assessed using DKQ-24, DMKQ, and ARMS, respectively. Glycemic control was obtained from laboratory records. Factors associated with diabetes distress were analyzed using the chi-square or Mann-Whitney test and multivariable binary logistic regression. Overall, 72.9% of participants experienced moderate to high diabetes distress, with emotional burden and regimen distress as the dominant domains. Medication non-adherence and uncontrolled blood glucose showed the strongest associations with diabetes distress (p %U https://japer.in/article/diabetes-distress-and-associated-factors-in-type-2-diabetes-at-an-indonesian-hospital-a-cross-secti-tidvs6xlughgym9
