Abstract
This letter was written to address two concerns about the results of the paper published by Zeynep et al. (BMC Health Qual Life Outcomes 18:265, 2020). First, the differences between the two groups in the environment with or without occupation may strengthen the primary outcome results. Second, lack of information on the complications and treatments of diabetes makes interpretation of the results difficult.Keywords
