“…Several reviews have been conducted on diabetes prevention research, focusing on the international research [11,12] or the comparative benefit of dietary change, physical activity, and/or weight loss [13,14]. One review focused on community-based programs conducted in the USA prior to the DPP, with few manuscripts reporting on outcomes; rather, the process of intervention adaptation or lessons learned was reported [15].…”

International clinical trials have demonstrated compelling evidence on the prevention or delay of type 2 diabetes (T2D) by lifestyle change programs. Numerous studies have translated the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) protocol to "real-world" settings. The purpose of this paper is to review the translational research of the DPP protocol in adults at-risk for T2D. This study is a systematic review based on the guidelines from the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews. There were 16 studies that translated the DPP protocol in four distinct settings: (a) hospital outpatient, (b) primary care, (c) community, and (d) work and church. Settings varied considerably in terms of reach, efficacy, adoption, implementation, and maintenance. There were strengths and limitations to each setting. Better understanding of program adaptation and mediators and moderators to program efficacy are indicated. Future research also needs to continue to explore mechanisms to improve access and long-term outcomes.

Objective: To investigate how socio-economic position, demographic factors, degree of integration and dietary indicators are related to BMI/waist:hip ratio (WHR) and to weight dissatisfaction and slimming among South Asians in Oslo, Norway. Design: Cross-sectional study consisting of a health check including anthropometric measures and two self-administered questionnaires. Setting: Oslo, Norway. Subjects: Pakistanis and Sri Lankans (n 629), aged 30-60 years, residing in Oslo. Results: BMI was positively associated with female gender (P 5 0?004) and Pakistani origin (P , 0?001), and inversely associated with years of education (P 5 0?011) and eating more hot meals (P 5 0?016). WHR was positively associated with male gender (P , 0?001), age (P , 0?001) and a dietary pattern with high-fat foods (P 5 0?005), and inversely associated with degree of integration (measured by a composite index, independent of duration of residence; P 5 0?017). One-third of those with normal weight and most of those obese were dissatisfied with their weight. Among these, about 40 % had attempted to slim during the past year. Dissatisfaction with weight was positively associated with education in women (P 5 0?006) and with integration in men (P 5 0?026), and inversely associated with physical activity (P 5 0?044) in men. Women who had made slimming attempts had breakfast and other meals less frequently than others (P , 0?05). Conclusions: Weight dissatisfaction exists among South Asian immigrants. More research is needed regarding bodily dissatisfaction and the relationship between perception of weight and weight-change attempts among immigrants in Norway, in order to prevent and treat both obesity and eating disorders.

“…Epidemiological studies have suggested that the prevalence of T2D may vary markedly across Europe and other regions, and ethnic groups (Wild et al, 2004), and the rate ranges from 2 to 10% in the industrialized countries with a tendency to increase (Adeghate et al, 2006;Hussain et al, 2007;Ringborg et al, 2008). T2D is thought to be caused by environmental and inherited factors in about equal proportions (Doria et al, 2008).…”
