Lifestyle Changes Observed among Adults Participating in a Family- and Community-Based Intervention for Diabetes Prevention in Europe: The 1st Year Results of the Feel4Diabetes-Study.

ABSTRACT: The Feel4Diabetes intervention was a school and community-based intervention aiming to promote healthy lifestyle and tackle obesity and obesity-related metabolic risk factors for the prevention of type 2 diabetes (T2D) among families at risk of developing this disease. The current study aims to present the results on lifestyle behaviors obtained from parents during the first year of the Feel4Diabetes intervention. This multicomponent intervention had a cluster randomized design and was implemented in Belgium, Bulgaria, Finland, Greece, Hungary and Spain over two years (2016-2018). Standardized protocols and procedures were used by the participating centers in all countries to collect data on parents' lifestyle behaviors (diet, physical activity, sedentary behavior). The Feel4Diabetes intervention was registered at clinicaltrials.gov (registration number: NCT02393872). In total, 2110 high-risk parents participated in the baseline and 12-month follow-up examination measurements. Participants allocated to the intervention group reduced their daily consumption of sugary drinks (p = 0.037) and sweets (p = 0.031) and their daily screen time (p = 0.032), compared with the control group. In addition, participants in the intervention group in Greece and Spain increased their consumption of breakfast (p = 0.034) and fruits (p = 0.029), while in Belgium and Finland they increased their water intake (p = 0.024). These findings indicate that the first year of the Feel4Diabetes intervention resulted in the improvement of certain lifestyle behaviors in parents from high-risk families.

Project description:BackgroundThe Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) behavioral lifestyle intervention was effective among a diverse sample of adults with prediabetes. Demonstrated effectiveness in translated versions of the DPP lifestyle intervention (such as Group Lifestyle Balance, DPP-GLB) led to widescale usage with national program oversight and reimbursement. However, little is known about the success of these DPP-translation programs across subgroups of sociodemographic factors. This current effort investigated potential disparities in DPP-translation program primary goal achievement (physical activity and weight) by key sociodemographic factors.MethodsData were combined from two 12-month community-based DPP-GLB trials among overweight/obese individuals with prediabetes and/or metabolic syndrome. We evaluated change in weight (kilograms and percent) and activity (MET-hrs/week) and goal achievement (yes/no; ≥5% weight loss and 150 min per week activity) after 6 and 12 months of intervention within and across subgroups of race/ethnicity (non-Hispanic white, non-Hispanic black), employment status, education, income, and gender.ResultsAmong 240 participants (85%) with complete data, most sociodemographic subgroups demonstrated significant weight loss. However, non-Hispanic white lost more weight at both 6 and 12 months compared to non-Hispanic black participants [median weight loss (IQR), 6 months: 5.7% (2.7-9.0) vs. 1.5% (1.2-7.5) p = .01 and 12 months: 4.8% (1.1-9.6) vs. 1.1% (- 2.0-3.7) p = .01, respectively]. In addition, a larger percentage of non-Hispanic white demonstrated a 5% weight loss at 6 and 12 months. Employment was significantly related to 12-month weight loss, with retired participants being the most successful. Men, participants with graduate degrees, and those with higher income were most likely to meet the activity goal at baseline and 12 months. Differences in physical activity goal achievement across gender, education, and income groups were significant at baseline, attenuated after 6 months, then re-emerged at 12 months.ConclusionsThe DPP-GLB was effective in promoting weight loss and helped to alleviate disparities in physical activity levels after 6 months. Despite overall program success, differences in weight loss achievement by race/ethnicity were found and disparities in activity re-emerged after 12 months of intervention. These results support the need for intervention modification providing more tailored approaches to marginalized groups to maximize the achievement and maintenance of DPP-GLB behavioral goals.Trial registrationNCT01050205 , NCT02467881 .

Project description:BackgroundThis study investigated the effect of the Feel4Diabetes-intervention, a 2-year multilevel intervention, on energy balance-related behaviors among European families at risk for developing type 2 diabetes. Intervention effects on self-reported physical activity, sedentary behavior and eating behaviors were investigated across and within the participating countries: Belgium, Finland, Greece, Spain, Hungary and Bulgaria.MethodsFamilies were recruited through schools, located in low socio-economic status areas. In total, 4484 families at risk for developing type 2 diabetes were selected using the FINDRISC-questionnaire. Parents' and children's energy balance-related behaviors data were collected by questionnaires at three time points (baseline, mid- and post intervention). Families assigned to the intervention group were invited to participate in a 2-year school-, community-, and family-based intervention to promote a healthier lifestyle, including counseling sessions (first intervention year) and text messages (second intervention year). Families assigned to the control group received standard care, including medical check-up results and recommendations and tips regarding a healthy lifestyle. To assess the intervention-effects, Mixed Models were conducted using the R-Package "lmer "with R v3.2.ResultsSignificant intervention effects were found on a certain number of families' lifestyle behaviors. Significant favorable intervention effects were detected on parents' water consumption and consumption of fruit and vegetables, and on children's consumption of sweets and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. Analyses by country revealed significant favorable intervention effects on water consumption and on moderate-to-vigorous physical activity in Belgian parents and on fruit and vegetable consumption among Belgian children, on sweets consumption among Spanish parents and children, and on moderate-to-vigorous physical activity among Finnish children. Unfavorable intervention effects were found on the consumption of soft drinks and sugar-containing juices among Hungarian children and parents, while when examining the intervention effects for the overall population and per country, 10 from the 112 investigated outcome variables were improved in the intervention group compared to the control group (9%).ConclusionsThe Feel4Diabetes-intervention managed to improve a certain number of targeted lifestyle behaviors while the intervention was not effective on a large number of targeted lifestyle behaviors. The findings of the current study are encouraging, but further research is needed on how we can further improve effectiveness of lifestyle interventions to prevent type 2 diabetes in families at risk.Trial registrationThe Feel4Diabetes-study is registered with the clinical trials registry http://clinicaltrials.gov , ID: 643708.
