Pedometer intervention and weight loss in overweight and obese adults with Type 2 diabetes: a meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

Although pedometer intervention is effective in increasing physical activity among adults with Type 2 diabetes, its impact on weight loss remains unclear. This meta-analysis was aimed to assess whether pedometer intervention promotes weight loss.

Methods

Three different databases were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published in English up to April 2015. Studies were included if they investigated the effects of pedometer intervention on weight loss, as measured by BMI or weight. Effect sizes were aggregated using a random-effects model. Subgroup and meta-regression analyses were used to identify potential moderators. Eleven RCTs with 1258 participants were included. All enrolled participants were overweight or obese.

Results

Pedometer intervention led to significantly decreased BMI [weighted mean difference (WMD) -0.15 kg/m(2) , 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.29 to -0.02 kg/m(2) ] and reduced weight (WMD -0.65 kg, 95% CI -1.12 to -0.17 kg). Dietary counselling seemed to be a key predictor of the observed changes. However, none of the following variables had a significant influence: step goal setting, baseline age, BMI, weight, sex distribution, disease duration, intervention duration, and baseline values or change scores for total or moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. After completion of the pedometer intervention, non-significant declines in BMI and weight were observed during the follow-up periods.

Conclusions

Pedometer intervention promotes modest weight loss, but its association with physical activity requires further clarification. Future studies are also required to document dietary and sedentary behaviour changes to facilitate the use of pedometers for weight loss in overweight and obese adults with Type 2 diabetes.

Project description:This study compared the efficacy of two multi-component m-health interventions with a wait-list control group on body weight (primary outcome), and secondary outcomes of cardiovascular risk factors, lifestyle behaviours, and mental health. Three-arm randomised controlled trial (Enhanced: physical activity, diet, sleep, Traditional: physical activity, diet, Control) with assessments conducted at baseline, 6 and 12 months. Participants (n = 116) were overweight or obese adults aged 19-65 (M = 44.5 [SD = 10.5]). The 6-month intervention was delivered via a smartphone app providing educational materials, goal-setting, self-monitoring and feedback, and also included one face-to-face dietary consultation, a Fitbit and scales. The trial was prospectively registered and conducted between May 2017 and September 2018. Group differences on primary and secondary outcomes were examined between the Pooled Intervention groups (Pooled Intervention = Enhanced and Traditional) and Control groups, and then between Enhanced and Traditional groups. Nineteen participants (16.4%) formally withdrew from the trial. Compared with the Control group, average body weight of the Pooled Intervention group did not differ at 6 (between-group difference = -0.92, (95% CI -3.33, 1.48)) or 12 months (0.00, (95% CI -2.62, 2.62)). Compared with the Control group, the Pooled Intervention group significantly increased resistance training (OR = 7.83, (95% CI 1.08, 56.63)) and reduced energy intake at 6 months (-1037.03, (-2028.84, -45.22)), and improved insomnia symptoms at 12 months (-2.59, (-4.79, -0.39)). Compared with the Traditional group, the Enhanced group had increased waist circumferences (2.69, (0.20, 5.18)) and sedentary time at 6 months (105.66, (30.83, 180.48)), and improved bed time variability at 12 months (-1.08, (-1.86, -0.29)). No other significant differences were observed between groups. Relative to Controls, the Pooled Intervention groups did not differ on body weight but improved resistance training, and reduced energy intake and insomnia symptom severity. No additional weight loss was apparent when targeting improvements in physical activity, diet and sleep in combination compared with physical activity and diet.

Project description:BackgroundLong-term effects of behavioural weight loss interventions on diabetes complications are unknown. In a secondary analysis of the Look AHEAD (Action for Health in Diabetes) multicentre randomised clinical trial, we assessed whether an intensive lifestyle intervention (ILI) affects the development of nephropathy in people with type 2 diabetes.MethodsOverweight or obese people aged 45-76 years with type 2 diabetes were randomly assigned (1:1) to ILI or to a diabetes support and education (DSE) group by a central web-based data management system, stratified by clinical centre and blocked with random block sizes. The ILI was designed to achieve and maintain weight loss through reduced caloric consumption and increased physical activity. The interventions were terminated early because of absence of effect on the primary outcome of cardiovascular disease events in the main Look AHEAD trial. Albuminuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate were prespecified as two of many other outcomes and were assessed from baseline until the interventions ended. They were combined post hoc to define the main outcome for this report, very-high-risk chronic kidney disease (CKD), based on the 2013 Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) classification. Outcomes assessors and laboratory staff were masked to treatment, but participants and interventionists were not masked. Time-to-event data were analysed by intention to treat by the Kaplan-Meier method and proportional hazards models. The Look AHEAD trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT00017953.FindingsOf the 5145 participants randomly assigned in the Look AHEAD trial (2570 to ILI and 2575 to DSE), analyses for very-high-risk CKD were done in 2423 (94%) of patients in the ILI group and 2408 (94%) of those in the DSE group. After a median of 8·0 years (IQR 7·9-9·9) of follow-up, the incidence of very-high-risk CKD was lower in the ILI group than in the DSE group, with incidence rates of 0·91 cases per 100 person-years in the DSE group and 0·63 per 100 person-years in the ILI group (difference 0·27 cases per 100 person-years, hazard ratio 0·69, 95% CI 0·55-0·87; p=0·0016). This effect was partly attributable to reductions in bodyweight, HbA1c, and systolic blood pressure. There were no safety concerns regarding kidney-related adverse events.InterpretationWeight loss should be considered as an adjunct to medical treatments to prevent or delay progression of CKD in overweight or obese people with type 2 diabetes.FundingNational Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.
