Abstract
Background: Diabetes is a chronic and prevalent disease. In recent years, its prevalence has increased because of lifestyle changes, immobility and subsequent obesity. The increase in diabetes prevalence has provoked multiple and scattered interventions by specialists and health care providers in order to control and regulate blood sugar and its related factors. The purpose of this study was to collect and integrate the results of these interventions in two fields of psychological and sport interventions and to investigate the impact of them on control of Glycosylated haemoglonin (HbA1c) in patients with diabetes by meta-analysis method.
Methods: For this purpose 38 acceptable studies (19 sport interventions and 19 psychological interventions), in terms of methodology, were selected and meta-analysis performed on them. This study is based on 38 effect sizes and research instrument is checklist of meta-analysis.
Results: The study findings showed that the effect size of psychological interventions on control of Glycosylated haemoglonbin is 0.67 (p<0.00001) and the effect size of sport interventions is 0.79 (p<0.00001).
Conclusion: according to Cohen’s chart, the effect size of both psychological and sport intervention on control of Glycosylated haemoglonin in patients with diabetes is medium. However, the effectiveness of sport interventions have been obtained more than the psychological intervention

Abstract
Background: In recent years, the prevalence of diabetes has increased significantly. Parents of children with diabetes suffer from many physical and psychological problems; Therefore, various interventions have been designed to improve their quality of life and well-being. These interventions have benefited from a wide range of approaches and methodologies. The present study was conducted with the aim of identifying and reviewing various psychological interventions for parents of children under 6 years old with diabetes and examining their strengths and weaknesses.
Methods: The search for interventional protocols was done through various databases such as Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Direct and Scopus. after checking the data entry criteria, 11 articles were selected and studied.
Results: The interventions used different approaches such as cognitive-behavioral, social learning, family therapy, and positive parenting. The intervention methods were mostly remote and had different consequences for the parent and the child, which has been highlighted. Also, the sample size in these studies was between 30 and 200 parents, and the satisfaction level of the main interventions was reported to be high.
Conclusion: In general, limited interventions have been conducted. Given that interventions focusing on the psychological state of parents can lead to increased social support and improved mental health in parents and children with diabetes, it is hoped that this article will pave the way for examining different approaches.
