[PMID: 38494571 PMCID: PMC11043312 DOI: 10.1007/s13300-024-01560-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 03/19/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Prediabetes is a state of subclinical glycemic impairment, bridging normal glucose tolerance and diabetes. Globally, over 30% of individuals exhibit prediabetic conditions, with a significant proportion progressing to diabetes. Prediabetes augments risks of various diseases including cardiovascular and kidney disease. While interventions like lifestyle changes have shown promise in diabetes prevention, their long-term sustainability is challenging. Alternative pharmacological treatments, such as acarbose and metformin, have demonstrated efficacy in certain populations. Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors, a novel class of glucose-lowering agents, have shown potential benefits for heart and kidney health in patients with diabetes. This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of dapagliflozin in individuals with prediabetes, elucidating its potential role in diabetes prevention strategies. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This prospective trial is being conducted at Peking University Third Hospital. A total of 240 participants with prediabetes will be enrolled and randomly divided into two groups: one receiving dapagliflozin (10 mg/day) with lifestyle education, and the other with lifestyle education alone over a 12-week duration (with male/female = 1:1 in each group). Anthropometric, clinical and laboratory tests, including body mass index, waist circumference, fasting blood glucose, oral glucose tolerance test, insulin, lipid profile, liver and kidney function, sperm quality, will be conducted at the onset and conclusion of the trial. For adherence monitoring, participants will receive phone follow-ups at week 4 and week 8. The primary outcome is the change in 2-h plasma glucose during an oral glucose tolerance test over the study duration. Secondary outcomes encompass changes in various health metrics, including body mass index, lipid profiles, and liver function. PLANNED OUTCOMES The proposed study is set to refine diabetes prevention strategies on the basis of its potential benefits observed in patients with diabetes. CONCLUSIONS This will be the first randomized controlled trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors compared with lifestyle education for individuals with prediabetes. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT05914857 (registered 24 July 2023).

A pre-conception clinical trial to reduce intergenerational obesity and diabetes risks: The NDPP-NextGen trial protocol. Contemp Clin Trials 2023; 133:107305. [PMID: 37516162 PMCID: PMC11044980 DOI: 10.1016/j.cct.2023.107305] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2023] [Revised: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 07/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intrauterine exposure to maternal overweight/obesity or diabetes transmits risks to offspring, perpetuating a disease cycle across generations. Prenatal interventions to reduce maternal weight or dysglycemia have limited impact, while postpartum interventions can alter the intrauterine environment only if child-bearing continues. Efficacious preconception interventions are needed, especially for underserved populations, and with the potential to be scaled up sustainably. Research is also needed to assess intervention effects at conception, throughout pregnancy, and among offspring. METHODS This two-arm, parallel randomized clinical trial will include 360 biological females with overweight/obesity and moderate-to-high likelihood of pregnancy within 24 months. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to a yearlong pre-conception lifestyle intervention based on the National Diabetes Prevention Program (NDPP-NextGen) or usual care. Data collection will occur at enrollment (before conception), post-conception (<8 weeks gestation), late pregnancy (28-32 weeks gestation), and delivery (before discharge) for participants who become pregnant within 24 months of enrollment. Main outcomes are post-conception body mass index (<8 weeks gestation; primary outcome), post-conception fasting glucose (<8 weeks gestation; secondary outcome), and neonatal adiposity (<2 days post-birth). Additional clinical, behavioral, perinatal and offspring data will be collected, and biospecimens (blood, urine, stool, cord blood) will be banked for future ancillary studies. CONCLUSION This clinical trial will evaluate an intervention model (NDPP-NextGen) with potential to improve maternal health among the >50% of US females with overweight/obesity or diabetes risks in pregnancy. If successful, it can be scaled among >1800 organizations delivering NDPP in the United States to benefit the health of future generations.

Abstract
The impact of global diabetes prevention efforts has been modest despite the promise of landmark diabetes prevention trials nearly twenty years ago. While national and regional initiatives show potential, challenges remain to adapt large-scale strategies in the real-world that fits individuals and their communities. Additionally, the sedentary lifestyle changes during the COVID-19 pandemic and guidelines that now call for earlier screening (e.g., US Preventative Task Force) will increase the pool of eligible adults worldwide. Thus, a more adaptable, person-centered approach that expands the current toolkit is urgently needed to innovate and revitalize our approach to diabetes prevention. This review identifies key priorities to optimize the population-level delivery of diabetes prevention based on a consensus-based evaluation of the current evidence among experts in global translational programs; key priorities identified include (1) participant eligibility, (2) intervention intensity, (3) delivery components, (4) behavioral economics, (5) technology, and (6) the role of pharmacotherapy. We offer a conceptual framework for a broader, person-centered approach to better address an individual's risk, readiness, barriers, and digital competency.

Matern Child Health J 2023:10.1007/s10995-023-03624-5.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Intrauterine exposure to maternal obesity and hyperglycemia greatly increases offspring health risks. Scalable lifestyle interventions to lower weight and glycemia prior to conception are needed, but have been understudied, especially in diverse and low-income women with disproportionately high risks of negative maternal-child outcomes. The objective of this report is to provide initial evidence of the National Diabetes Prevention Program's (NDPP) effects on maternal-child outcomes in diverse, low-income women and their offspring. METHODS The yearlong NDPP was delivered in a safety net healthcare system to 1,569 participants from 2013 to 2019. Using medical records, we evaluated outcomes for women < 40 years who became pregnant and delivered after attending the NDPP for ≥ 1 month (n = 32), as compared to a usual care group of women < 40 years (n = 26) who were initially eligible for the NDPP but were excluded due to pregnancy at enrollment. RESULTS Most women in either group were Latinx, had Medicaid or were uninsured, and had obesity at baseline. The mean difference in BMI change from baseline to conception was - 1.8 ± 0.6 kg/m2 (p = 0.002) for NDPP versus usual care. Fewer NDPP participants had obesity at conception (56.7% vs. 88.0%, p = 0.011) and hyperglycemia in early pregnancy (4.0% vs. 25.0%; p = 0.020) than usual care. No other differences were statistically significant, yet nearly all outcomes favored the NDPP. Covariate-adjusted results were consistent, except the difference in frequency of obesity at conception was no longer significant (p = 0.132). DISCUSSION Results provide preliminary evidence that the NDPP may support a reduction in peri-conceptional obesity/diabetes risks among diverse and low-income women.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Weight history and its association with the weight loss achieved in a publicly funded clinical obesity management program were examined in 9348 patients. METHODS Weight history (frequency and magnitude of weight losses) was collected through questionnaires at enrollment, and weight change was assessed with retrospective electronic medical chart review. RESULTS The majority of patients reported developing overweight prior to the age of 40 years and having lost at least 4.5 kg (10 lb) of weight at least once in their lifetime. Those who had an earlier onset of overweight had a higher frequency of past weight loss and had more cumulative weight loss over their lifetime. In women, but not men, earlier age of overweight onset and lifetime weight loss were associated with modestly greater weight loss at the clinic. CONCLUSIONS Women with greater weight-loss history also have modestly greater weight loss at the obesity management clinic. Thus, successful long-term obesity management, particularly for women, may include a series of repeated attempts at weight loss that should not be viewed as failures but could be viewed instead as practice.
