A Feasibility Study to Develop a Diabetes Prevention Program for Young Adults With Prediabetes by Using Digital Platforms and a Handheld Device
Open accessAbstract
Purpose: The purpose of this pilot study was to examine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an age-specific diabetes prevention program in young adults with prediabetes. Methods: A one-group pretest-posttest design was used. The inclusion criteria were age 18 to 29 years and the presence of prediabetes (either impaired fasting glucose of 100-125 mg/dL [5.55-6.94 mmol/L] or A1C of 5.7%-6.4%). Fifteen participants were enrolled in the study. A technology-based lifestyle coaching program focused on diet and physical activity and incorporating a handheld device and digital platforms was developed and tested. Psychosocial factors (health literacy, illness perception, self-efficacy, therapeutic efficacy) based on social cognitive theory, changes in diet and physical activity, and cardiometabolic risk factors were assessed at baseline and week 12 after the intervention. A paired-samples t test was performed to examine changes between baseline and postintervention on each psychosocial and physical variable. Results: Participants’ (n = 13 completers) mean age was 24.4 ± 2.2 years, 23.1% were male, and 53.8% were African American. Overall, the participants were satisfied with the intervention (mean score, 4.15 on a 5-point, Likert-type scale). Between pre- and posttesting, mean body mass index and mean A1C decreased from 41.0 ± 7.3 kg/m 2 and 6.0 ± 0.5% to 40.1 ± 7.0 kg/m 2 and 5.6 ± 0.5%, respectively, whereas mean fasting glucose did not significantly change (from 92.6 ± 11 to 97.6 ± 14.3 mg/dL [5.14 ± 0.61 to 5.42 ± 0.79 mmol/L]). Conclusions: The intervention resulted in reduced A1C and a trend toward decreased body mass index in obese sedentary young adults with prediabetes after 12 weeks. Further study through a randomized clinical trial with a longer intervention period is warranted.

Of 3 DCP studies on consumer experience, Cha et al and Potzel et al reported better experience outcomes for patients in the DHI groups, while Block et al showed no effect.
“Of the 3 (23.1%) studies reporting the effectiveness of DCP on consumer experience, Cha et al [48] and Potzel et al [44] reported better experience outcomes for patients in the DHI groups, while Block et al [5] showed no effect.”

The Results section on participant satisfaction (page unavailable) reports that participants rated the digital-platform intervention 4.15 out of 5 and described positive aspects of their experience. However, the Method > Study design section describes a one-group pretest–posttest study, so it cannot establish better consumer experience in a DHI group relative to another group. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredTM effects on consumer experience were varied: 5 (71.4%) studies reported positive effects, 1 (14.2%) no discernible effect, and 1 (14.2%) mixed effects.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
