About this study

Official title: The Effect of Family-Based Behavioral Medical Nutrition Therapy Education on Nutritional Status and Metabolic Control in Children and Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes

Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) is a heterogeneous condition and is an absolute insulin deficiency resulting from autoimmune-mediated destruction of pancreatic β-cells (1). The incidence of T1DM has been increasing globally since the 1950s, particularly in children, with an average annual increase of 3-4% over the past three decades.Despite the advances in medical treatment and technology, nutritional therapy continues to be the main component of diabetes treatment. Medical nutrition further improves metabolic control outcomes when T1DM care is combined with other treatments.This study was conducted to examine the effect of family-based behavioral medical nutrition therapy training on nutritional status and metabolic control in children and adolescents with Type 1 diabetes.

Read the detailed description

The research was carried out with children and adolescents aged 8-18 years who were followed up with the diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus in Gaziantep Cengiz Gökçek Gynecology and Pediatrics Hospital. The sample of the study was consisted of 75 (male= 36, female= 39) children and adolescents in total, including Intervention 1 group (n=25), Intervention 2 (n=25) group and Control (n=25) group determined by double-blind, stratified, random method. Medical nutrition therapy and carbohydrate counting training were given to mothers and children in the Intervention 1 group, and only to children and adolescents in the Intervention 2 group. The control group did not receive medical nutrition therapy and carbohydrate counting training. At the beginning (0. month) and at the end (6. month) of the study, 3 consecutive day/24-hour food consumption records and anthropometric measurements of the individuals were assessed, BMI z-scores and height z-scores were calculated, Mediterranean Diet Quality Index Scale (KIDMED), Diabetes Eating Problems Survey-Revised (DEPS-R), Physical Activity Questionnaire for Children and Adolescents (PAQ-C and PAQ-A) were administered and Healthy Eating Index 2015 (HEI-2015) scores were calculated. Routinely assessed blood findings of the individuals were checked at the beginning (0. month), 3rd month and 6th month of the study.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Medical nutrition therapy and carbohydrate counting educationOther

    Children and their mothers have received family-based behavioral medical nutrition therapy and carbohydrate counting education for 6 months by trained dietitian

  • Medical nutrition therapy and carbohydrate counting educationOther

    Only children have received family-based behavioral medical nutrition therapy and carbohydrate counting education for 6 months by trained dietitian

  • No interventionOther

    Control group didn't receive any intervention by trained dietitian. Furthermore they continued their routine health controls.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in mean of HbA1c from baseline to 6 months

    All data were analysed by using IBM SPSS Statistics 26 and significance was defined as p< 0.05

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in mean of Healthy Eating Index 2015 (HEI-2015) score from baseline to 6 Months

    All data were analysed by using IBM SPSS Statistics 26 and significance was defined as p< 0.05

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Change in mean of Mediterranean Diet Quality Index Scale (KIDMED) from baseline to 6 Months

    All data were analysed by using IBM SPSS Statistics 26 and significance was defined as p< 0.05

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Medical nutrition therapy and carbohydrate counting education in people with Type1diabetes, run by Hasan Kalyoncu University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 6 inclusion and 5 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 9 Jun 2022. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Change in mean of HbA1c from baseline to 6 months (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 9 Jun 2022.
