Abstract
Introduction and Objective: Social determinants of health, including racism and psychosocial stress, are increasingly recognized as drivers of diabetes-related outcomes. The BEAD-T1D study examined relationships in parent-youth dyads across three key domains: racism exposure, diabetes technology perceptions, and psychosocial health. Methods: Parents and youth aged 12-21 years with T1D completed validated age-appropriate surveys assessing perceived racism and adverse childhood experiences, diabetes technology acceptance and burden, and psychosocial outcomes including depression, diabetes distress, and global health. Pearson correlations were used to measure correlations within and across dyads. Results: Dyads (n=80: 50% Hispanic, 55% publicly insured) demonstrated significant within-dyad correlations on explicit racism (r=0.42, p<0.001), diabetes distress (r=0.24, p=0.034), global health (r=0.35, p=0.001), and depression (r=0.38, p=0.001). The figure presents correlation arrows between parents (♦) and youth (←) across the domains of racism exposure (purple), diabetes technology perceptions (green), and psychosocial health (blue). Conclusion: These findings demonstrate the interconnected nature of the health determinants within minoritized families. Racism exposure correlates with diabetes technology perception and psychosocial health, suggesting that racism is embedded into diabetes experience for minoritized dyads. Disclosure A. Addala: None.

期刊介绍:
Diabetes is a scientific journal that publishes original research exploring the physiological and pathophysiological aspects of diabetes mellitus. We encourage submissions of manuscripts pertaining to laboratory, animal, or human research, covering a wide range of topics. Our primary focus is on investigative reports investigating various aspects such as the development and progression of diabetes, along with its associated complications. We also welcome studies delving into normal and pathological pancreatic islet function and intermediary metabolism, as well as exploring the mechanisms of drug and hormone action from a pharmacological perspective. Additionally, we encourage submissions that delve into the biochemical and molecular aspects of both normal and abnormal biological processes.
However, it is important to note that we do not publish studies relating to diabetes education or the application of accepted therapeutic and diagnostic approaches to patients with diabetes mellitus. Our aim is to provide a platform for research that contributes to advancing our understanding of the underlying mechanisms and processes of diabetes.
