quality of life. A growing body of evidence has shown that psychological burden is closely related to maladaptive diabetes self-management behaviors and negative metabolic outcomes, reinforcing the need for integrated approaches that address both the medical and psychosocial dimensions of diabetes The Research Topic presents 3 contributions. First, a systematic review and meta-analysis evaluating the impact of eHealth interventions on adolescents with diabetes, with a particular emphasis on psychosocial outcomes. This work demonstrated that eHealth interventions yielded moderate and significant improvements in overall quality of life and satisfaction with life -a subscale of quality of life -among adolescents with T1D. Effects on glycemic management were smaller and nonsignificant. Notably, interventions were found to be well accepted, with no significant differences in dropout rates between intervention and control groups. These findings underscore the importance of explicitly targeting affective well-being, including diabetes distress, and quality of life, by viewing these outcomes as equal to the monitoring of glycemic management.
