The objective of our study was to assess awareness-raising of medication adherence (MA), physical activity (PA), fasting blood glucose (FBG), and glycated hemoglobin A (HbA1c) values by providing information on diabetes via short message (SMS) technology.
The study investigates T2DM patients who have not had surgery or cardiac event in the last 3 months, between the ages of 40 and 64 years, with T2DM diagnosis between the last 1 and 10 years and oral antidiabetic therapy for at least 1 The study design is a single-blinded randomized, controlled study, and was conducted in the Diabetes Polyclinic of the Istanbul University Medical Faculty Hospital.
Patients randomly assigned to the intervention group, in addition to traditional treatment received three to four informative SMS messages per week during the 6-month period, while the control group was followed in accordance with the traditional treatment schedule.

| Physical Activity level | The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) was used to evaluate the physical activity level of the participants at the beginning of the study. This measure assesses the types of intensity of physical activity and sitting time that people do as part of their daily lives are considered to estimate total physical activity in MET-min/week and time spent sitting. The higher scores mean a better outcome. | Beginning |
| Change from Baseline Physical Activity at 3 months | The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) was used to evaluate the physical activity level of the participants at at 3 months after the beginning of the study. This measure assesses the types of intensity of physical activity and sitting time that people do as part of their daily lives are considered to estimate total physical activity in MET-min/week and time spent sitting. The higher scores mean a better outcome. | 3 months from beginning |
| Change from Baseline Physical Activity at 6 months | The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) was used to evaluate the change in physical activity level of the participants at at 6 months after the beginning of the study.
