Emails: drjoo@gachon.ac.kr 11 2019 1054773819885952 © The Author(s) 2019 2019 SAGE Publications This qualitative systematic review synthesizes recent qualitative studies of culturally tailored interventions to better understand the experiences that individuals who are members of ethnic minorities have when undergoing type 2 diabetes treatment in the United States. Such interventions have been shown to be effective among ethnic minority populations; however, no qualitative synthesis has reported on recent findings from studies of these interventions. This systematic review identified seven relevant qualitative studies from five electronic databases—CINAHL, PsycINFO, PubMed, Ovid, and Web of Science—published from 2009 to 2019, and used a thematic synthesis review methodology. Methodological rigor was assessed for an appraisal of study quality. Five themes were identified as experiences of culturally tailored diabetes interventions: culturally appropriate healthy lifestyle behaviors, knowledge about diabetes care, emotional supports, access to the healthcare system, and family involvement. The findings of this review can be utilized as resources for improving diabetes care for ethnic minorities. culturally tailored diabetes intervention type 2 diabetes ethnic minority experience qualitative studies qualitative synthesis qualitative systematic review national research foundation of korea https://doi.org/10.13039/501100003725 2018R1C1B5029635 edited-state corrected-proof Author Contributions Study design: JYJ Data collection, analysis, and synthesis: JYJ, MFL Manuscript writing: JYJ Critical revisions for important intellectual content: JYJ, MFL Study supervision: JYJ, MFL Declaration of Conflicting Interests The author(s) declared no potential conflicts of interest with respect to the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article.
