Assessment of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients' behavioral characteristics associated with integrated treatment and prevention services in community health centers in China.

Patients' behaviors associated with ITP services for T2DM were moderately good (the score rate was 63.98%). Of all the behaviors, complication examination and public health service utilization scored the lowest and, as such, may warrant further research. The clustering of patients' behaviors tends to be polarization, distributed at the upper and lower ends of the behavior spectrum. It is necessary to develop and implement targeted interventions for different groups to improve T2DM patients' behaviors associated with ITP services.
