Long-term outcomes of lifestyle intervention to prevent diabetes in American Indian and Alaska Native communities: The Special Diabetes Program for Indians Diabetes Prevention Program
Diabetes Care Jun 22, 2018
Jiang L, et al. - Researchers explored the long-term outcomes, for up to 10 years, of lifestyle intervention to prevent diabetes in American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) communities. The Special Diabetes Program for Indians Diabetes Prevention Program implemented the Diabetes Prevention Program lifestyle intervention among 46 AI/AN health care programs from January 2006 to July 2016. It was observed that moderate to small weight loss was correlated with substantially reduced long-term risk of diabetes in diverse AI/AN communities. Data reported that high participant attrition rates and nonoptimal postcurriculum weight loss were important challenges found in this translational effort implemented in an underserved population.
