• Several randomized trials have shown interventions (lifestyle, medications) can decrease rate of onset of diabetes

• Lifestyle: Da Qing, Finnish Diabetes Prevention Study, Diabetes Prevention Program

• Medications: Diabetes Prevention Program (metformin), The Stop-NIDDM (acarbose), DREAM (rosiglitazone), ACT-NOW (pioglitazone)

• 110,660 adults from 33 Da Qing, China, health care clinics screened in 1986 for IGT, type 2 diabetes mellitus

• 577 adults with IGT (WHO criteria) randomized to control (n=138) or one of three lifestyle interventions (n=438)• Diet only• Exercise only• Diet + exercise

• Follow-up at 2-year intervals over 6 years to identify those who developed diabetes

Pan XR, et al. Diabetes Care. 1997;20:537-544.

• Cumulative incidence of diabetes at6 years was significantly decreased in the active intervention groups (P<0.05)

• When analyzed by clinic, each active intervention group differed significantly from the control (P<0.05)

Diet + exercise 46.0% (95% CI, 37.3-54.7)

• When stratified as lean or overweight(BMI < or ≥25 kg/m2), relative decrease in rate of development of diabetes in lifestyle intervention groups was similar

• After adjusting for differences in baseline BMI and fasting glucose, all interventions were associated with diabetes risk reduction

• Active intervention with diet and/or exercise led to a significant decrease in incidence of diabetes over a 6-year period (1986-1992) among those with IGT

• Diabetes incidence (per 100 person years) per year• Control: 14.1 (95% CI 11.2-17.0)• Lifestyle intervention: 7.9 (95% CI, 6.8-9.1)

• Reduction in incidence of type 2 diabetes was directly associated with changes in lifestyles of high-risk subjects (ie, those with IGT)• Modifiable risk factors such as obesity, physical

inactivity, suggested as main nongenetic determinants of diabetes

• These results demonstrate that 22 subjects with IGT must be treated with lifestyle intervention for 1 year (or 5 subjects for 5 years) to prevent 1 case of diabetes

one or more additional risk factors– In those without risk factors, begin testing at age

45 years (B)

• If tests are normal– Repeat testing at least at 3-year intervals (E)

• Use A1C, FPG, or 2-h 75-g OGTT (B)

• In those with increased risk for future diabetes– Identify and, if appropriate, treat other CVD risk

•Physical inactivity

•First-degree relative with diabetes

•High-risk race/ethnicity (e.g., African American, Latino, Native American, Asian American, Pacific Islander)

•Women who delivered a baby weighing >9 lb or were diagnosed with GDM

•Hypertension (≥140/90 mmHg or on therapy for hypertension)

• Women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)

• A1C ≥5.7%, IGT, or IFG on previous testing

• Other clinical conditions associated with insulin resistance (e.g., severe obesity, acanthosis nigricans)

• History of CVD

*At-risk BMI may be lower in some ethnic groups.

1. Testing should be considered in all adults who are overweight (BMI ≥25 kg/m2*) and have additional risk factors:

ADA. Testing in Asymptomatic Patients. Diabetes Care. 2012;35(suppl 1):S14. Table 4.

2. In the absence of criteria (risk factors on previous slide), testing for diabetes should begin at age 45 years

3. If results are normal, testing should be repeated at least at 3-year intervals, with consideration of more frequent testing depending on initial results and risk status

Conclusions: Call to ActionConclusions: Call to Action

• We must identify patients at highest risk (prediabetes)

• Modest lifestyle changes are most effective

• Sustain interventions

• Increase opportunities for community programs to support prevention

• Delaying or preventing type 2 diabetes is cost-effective and will help turn the tide on the diabetes epidemic
