Objective-To evaluate the effectiveness of a lifestyle intervention in reducing work loss and disability days.Methods-One year randomized controlled trial of health plan members (n=147) with type 2 diabetes and obesity. Members were randomized to modest-cost lifestyle intervention (LI) or usual care (UC). Outcomes were group differences in cumulative days either missed at work or with disability using Mann-Whitney U-tests and Poisson regression models. Conclusion-Lifestyle interventions reduce work loss and disability days associated with diabetes and obesity. Results-LI

“…An earlier narrative review by Jacobson et al [ 3 ••] reported significant improvements in lipids/lipoproteins (total-C, LDL-C, and TG), along with cardiometabolic risk factors (BP, A1c, and BMI) with multiple MNT visits. Another systematic review of eight studies by McCoin et al [ 67 ] in 2008 also reported significant improvement in lipids/lipoproteins and cardiometabolic risk factors along with significant cost savings.…”

Purpose of Review Referral to nutrition care providers in the USA such as registered dietitian nutritionists (RDNs) for medical nutrition therapy (MNT) remains low. We summarize research on the effectiveness of MNT provided by dietitians versus usual care in the management of adults with dyslipidemia. Improvements in lipids/lipoproteins were examined. If reported, blood pressure (BP), fasting blood glucose (FBG) glycated hemoglobin (A1c), body mass index (BMI), and cost outcomes were also examined. Recent Findings The synthesis of three systematic reviews included thirty randomized controlled trials. Multiple MNT visits (3–6) provided by dietitians, compared with usual care, resulted in significant improvements in total cholesterol (mean range: − 4.64 to − 20.84 mg/dl), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (mean range: − 1.55 to − 11.56 mg/dl), triglycerides (mean range: − 15.9 to − 32.55 mg/dl), SBP (mean range: − 4.7 to − 8.76 mm Hg), BMI (mean: − 0.4 kg/m2), and A1c (− 0.38%). Cost savings from MNT were attributed to a decrease in medication costs and improved quality of life years (QALY). Summary Multiple MNT visits provided by dietitians compared with usual care improved lipids/lipoproteins, BP, A1c, weight status, and QALY with significant cost savings in adults with dyslipidemia and justify a universal nutrition policy for equitable access to MNT.
