In doing a review of use of theoritical evidence base in diabetes prevention interventions, I seem to find it difficult to come to a conclusion to a set of commonly used theories. To the reading and litt. search done so far, I understand that SCT, TPB, TTM, HBM are some commonly used ones. Kindly let me know if there are other health behavior change theories that are applied to diabetes prevention. Thanks in advance.

Thank you Martin! Those are useful references.
Marianne - Thank you - I was looking more at a theories perspective.
Dear Shruti, theoretical concepts which are often used are also empowement and self-management theory. But unfortunately, there are only very few theory-based concepts, most of them have practical experience / backround. May be this is due to the fact, that most researchers are medical doctors and publish in medical journals and only very vew have also a psychological or behavioral medicine background.
The one we commonly teach healthcare students to use is motivational interviewing.

DIABETES PREVENTION REQUIRES MULTIPLE CONCERTED STRATEGIES!
"Diabetes is one of the largest global health emergencies of the 21st century. On a global scale, there are an estimated 415 million people aged 20-79 with diabetes. These include 193 million who are undiagnosed. A further 318 million adults with impaired glucose tolerance are also at high risk of developing the disease. In 2015 alone, diabetes and its related complications will have caused 5 million deathsand cost 12% of the global healthcare spend.
How can we slow, stop, or reverse the diabetes epidemic?
While some risk factor such as ageing are unavoidable, type 2 diabetes treatment, reversal, and prevention must focus on ‘changeable’ risk factors. Particularly, the adoption of healthy nutrition, increased physical activity, and maintenance of a normal body weight. These healthy lifestyle behaviours could reduce all new cases of type 2 diabetes by as much as 65-80% according to the World Health Organisation..."

Ten years ago, a group of people with type 1 diabetes, sick of waiting for companies to develop the technology they needed, took things into their own hands. The result was a small open-source ecosystem of automated glucose-monitoring and insulin-dosing apps. Positive results from randomized trials have prompted some physicians to call for more support for these do-it-yourself tools. And one device, Tidepool Loop, became the first such effort to be cleared by the US Food and Drug Administration. Ultimately, these innovations could shake up a marketplace in which individual manufacturers have usually developed proprietary, exclusive software...
