Effects of lifestyle education program for type 2 diabetes patients in clinics: study design of a cluster randomized trial

Abstract: BackgroundThe number of patients with type 2 diabetes is drastically increasing worldwide. It is a serious health problem in Japan as well. Lifestyle interventions can reduce progression from impaired glucose tolerance to type 2 diabetes, and glycemic control has been shown to improve postprandial plasma glucose levels. Moreover, several studies have suggested that continuous interventions (combined diet and exercise) can improve the plasma glucose level and reduce dosage of hypoglycemic agents.Although many i… Show more

“…A total of 12,018 persons with T2DM were included, of whom 5,893 were in the intervention group (IG) and 6,125 in the control group (CG), with an average age of 59.88 years (59.76 and 60, respectively). The mean baseline HbA 1 c was 7.83%, this value being the primary outcome in all cases (Adachi et al, ; Adolfsson, Walker‐Engström, Smide, & Wikblad, ; Clancy, Huang, Okonofua, Yeager, & Magruder, ; Davies et al, ; Deakin, Cade, Williams, & Greenwood, ; DePue et al, ; D'Eramo Melkus et al, ; Gregg, Callaghan, Hayes, & Glenn‐Lawson, ; Grillo et al, ; Hörnsten, Lundman, Stenlund, & Sandström, ; Houweling et al, ; Jutterström, Hörnsten, Sandström, Stenlund, & Isaksson, ; Khunti et al, ; Mash et al, ; Salinero‐Fort et al, ; Sönnichsen et al, ; Sturt et al, ; Thom et al, ; Wattana, Srisuphan, Pothiban, & Upchurch, ; Welch et al, ) except the Look AHEAD Study (Redmon et al, ), in which it was the weight loss achieved. The follow‐up periods ranged from 3–36 months, the most common being 12–14 months (13 studies).…”

“…Moreover, due to the inherent nature of these studies, there was no blinding of participants or programme providers. In over 75% of the studies, there was either a high risk of other biases being present or doubts in this respect, the most common such occurrences being the presence of recruitment bias in trials that were randomised by clusters (Adachi et al, ; Mash et al, ; Sönnichsen et al, ; Wattana et al, ) or the existence of contamination between participants in IG and CG (Sturt et al, ; Wattana et al, ). However, less than 25% of the studies presented a high risk of attrition or reporting bias (Figures and ).…”
