About this study

Official title: The Effectiveness of an Intensive Life-Style Intervention Compared to an Collaborative Educational Intervention On Metabolic Control, and Its Impact on Weight, Physical Activity, Quality of Life, Self-Efficacy in Type 2 Diabetes Patients

200 type 2 diabetes patients will be randomly submitted to an intensive life-style or a collaborative educational programmes by means of random numbers list. The intervention will be conducted by certified nutritionists or certified diabetes educators, previously trained in behavioural modification and in self-care techniques. The intervention will last 16 weekly sessions and A1c, LDL cholesterol, blood pressure will be measured as main variables. Furthermore, body weight and abdominal girth, other lipids (HDL cholesterol, triglycerides),and physical activity, quality of life, psychological well-being and self-efficacy will be measured with specific questionnaires for up to 6 months.

Read the detailed description

Two interventions will be compared for metabolic control (A1c, LDL Cholesterol, and blood pressure). Additional measures will include: body weight abdominal girdle, other lipids (HDL cholesterol, triglycerides);and physical activity, quality of life, psychological well-being and self-efficacy will be measured with specific questionnaires.

Inclusion criteria are: Type 2 diabetes (ADA criteria) diagnosed during the last 3 years, without chronic complications, negative urine ketone tests, current in their dues to IMSS, A1c > 7%, and BMI > 25. No age limits.

Exclusion criteria: Psychosis or personality disorders, other illnesses thought to be fatal in 6 months or less (e.g. AIDS, liver Cirrhosis, etc), unable to read and write, and currently taking other drugs that impair blood glucose metabolism, such as glucocorticoids. Patients unable to perform physical activity because of other neurological, orthopedic or rheumatological conditions, patients on drug treatment for depression or obesity. Patients with alcohol or other drug dependencies, and being a relative of a patient already included in the study.

Patients will be randomly assigned to either intervention and will not be told to which intervention he/she was assigned.

The Intensive intervention is structured in 16 sessions to be held every week for groups of up to 15 patients in family medicine clinics in Mexico City. This includes healthy nutrition and physical activity plus behavioural modification techniques; the treatment goals will be instituted by the case manager (lowering body weight by 5% 10%, and increasing physical activity to 150 minutes/week).

The Educational Collaborative group will attend 16 weekly sessions where nutritional and physical activity will also be discussed, along with knowledge about diabetes and its treatment. Behavioural modification techniques are included in the curricula but the treatment goals will be selected by the patients themselves.

Blood samples will be drawn from an antecubital vein before the program starts and every 3 months thereafter. Measurements will include: A1c, glucose, total cholesterol, LDL, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides. Furthermore, body weight and abdominal girdle will be measured by a trained nurse observer who does not know the patient's group allocation. Questionnaires for physical activity, quality of life, psychological well-being and self-efficacy will be answered by patients every 3 months.

The statistical analysis will be conducted as an intention-to-treat analysis, and will include comparison of proportions of patients attaining treatment goals, adjusted by age, sex, BMI, and base-line values with logistic regression; continuous variables will be analyzed with Analysis of Covariance.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Intensive Life-Style and Collaborative Education in people with Type 2 Diabetes, run by Coordinación de Investigación en Salud, Mexico at 1 site in Mexico.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Mexico. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

disease control (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Mar 2013.
