Intensified intervention reduces retinopathy onset in type 2 diabetes

The J-DOIT3 trial analyzed the effects of intensified multifactorial intervention on glycemic management in type 2 diabetes, finding that intensive therapy reduced the risk of retinopathy onset.

Interventions
Telephone-based lifestyle education for gestational diabetes prevention
Outcomes
Diabetic retinopathy incidenceLoss of vision likely due to retinopathyRetinopathy progression

Intensive lifestyle programme cuts type 2 diabetes risk by 57% in European prediabetes trial

This study combined data from three European trials of lifestyle programmes for people with prediabetes. The lifestyle programme cut diabetes risk by 57% overall, and those who lost 5% or more of their body weight in the first year had a 65% lower risk. Keeping the weight off for longer led to even greater protection.

Interventions
Lifestyle intervention for prediabetes
Outcomes
Body weightType 2 diabetes incidence

Interval walking improves blood sugar control in diabetes.

This study investigated the effects of interval walking on postprandial glycemic control in individuals with type 2 diabetes, finding significant improvements with one of the walking interventions.

Interventions
Interval walking
Outcomes
Postprandial blood glucose

Glimepiride increases hypoglycemia risk in type 2 diabetes treatment

This study evaluated the addition of glargine, glimepiride, liraglutide, or sitagliptin to metformin in type 2 diabetes. It found varying rates of hypoglycemia among the different treatments.
