Description
Yehualashet and co-authors (2026) publish the protocol for a scoping review of digital health coaching for adults whose type 2 diabetes is uncontrolled. Digital coaching promises personal, data-driven support, but the evidence is scattered and built on many different theories. The review will map that evidence and name the gaps, following established scoping methods and reporting rules.
The team searched five major databases between October and December 2025, using a strategy built with a health sciences librarian. Included studies will be appraised with standard quality tools, and findings reported descriptively. The protocol was developed in September 2025 under a postdoctoral fellowship at Queen's University. The authors expect to submit the finished review in 2026, and to use its map to design a coaching app for people with uncontrolled diabetes.
