In terms of drug adherence, according to the Morisky scale, ۲.۴% had good adherence, ۶۴.۲% had moderate adherence and ۳۵.۲% had poor adherence to drugs. The correlation between fasting blood sugar and the number of annual visits to the clinic was negative and significant; But there was no statistically significant relationship between diabetes control and age, duration of disease, number of children in the family, number of controls per week and BMI.Conclusion: Increased anxiety, depression and stress in patients with type ۱ diabetes lead to poor disease control and increased fatherhood, family support and more visits to the clinic increase disease control.
