REDCHiP intervention reduces diabetes distress in parents

The REDCHiP study aimed to reduce emotional distress in parents of children with hypoglycemia through a behavioral intervention. Results showed slight improvements in parental fear and distress, but none were statistically significant.

Resistance training improves 2-hour glucose tolerance in older adults with prediabetes, depending on phenotype

This study tested whether prediabetes type affects how well resistance training improves blood sugar handling. 159 older adults with prediabetes did supervised strength training twice weekly for 12 weeks. 2-hour glucose tolerance improved in those with impaired glucose tolerance, but not in those with isolated impaired fasting glucose.

Resistance training may help reverse prediabetes and improve strength

This trial tested whether adults with prediabetes could start and maintain resistance training. After a supervised 3-month training phase, about one-third of participants were no longer prediabetic, and this was mostly maintained through 15 months. Extra social-cognitive support did not outperform lower-contact standard care.
