Participation in a National Lifestyle Change Program is associated with improved diabetes Control outcomes.
Journal of Diabetes and its Complications 2017 September
AIMS: Clinical trials show lifestyle change programs are beneficial, yet large-scale, successful translation of these programs is scarce. We investigated the association between participation in the largest U.S. lifestyle change program, MOVE!, and diabetes control outcomes.
METHODS: This longitudinal, retrospective cohort study used Veterans Health Administration databases of patients with diabetes who participated in MOVE! between 2005 and 2012, or met eligibility criteria (BMI ≥25kg/m2 ) but did not participate. Main outcomes were diabetic eye disease, renal disease, and medication intensification.
RESULTS: There were 400,170 eligible patients with diabetes, including 87,366 (22%) MOVE!
PARTICIPANTS: Included patients were 96% male, 77% white, with mean age 58years and BMI 34kg/m2 . Controlling for baseline measurements and age, race, sex, BMI, and antidiabetes medications, MOVE! participants had lower body weight (-0.6kg), random plasma glucose (-2.8mg/dL), and HbA1c (-0.1%) at 12months compared to nonparticipants (each p<0.001). In multivariable Cox models, MOVE! participants had lower incidence of eye disease (hazard ratio 0.80, 95% CI 0.75-0.84) and renal disease (HR 0.89, 95% CI 0.86-0.92) and reduced medication intensification (HR 0.82, 95% CI 0.80-0.84).
CONCLUSIONS: If able to overcome participation challenges, lifestyle change programs in U.S. health systems may improve health among the growing patient population with diabetes.
