Da Qing Offspring Study

April 27, 2025 updated by: Bo Zhang, China-Japan Friendship Hospital
This is an observational study tracking families and offspring of three cohorts from the 1986 Da Qing study: newly diagnosed diabetes, impaired glucose tolerance, and normoglycemia groups. Based on the original participants, the study will further include their spouses, first to third-generation offspring, and spouses of the offspring. General demographic information will be collected, and anthropometric measurements will be refined. A structured questionnaire will be used to gather disease history, family history of diabetes, and related information. Comprehensive diabetes-related laboratory screening and complication assessments will be conducted. A standardized biobank will be established, including blood and urine samples from the Da Qing Offspring Study, to support future research on epigenetics, metabolomics, and other mechanisms.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Lifestyle intervention subjects and offspring group
The subjects who received lifestyle intervention in the original Daqing Diabetes Prevention Study, their spouses, children 1 to 3, and spouses of their offspring were included in the study.

Dietary intervention: 30kcal energy intake per kilogram of body weight per day, increase vegetable intake, control sugar and alcohol intake, encourage overweight and obese people to lose weight, lose 0.5-1kg per month until the weight reaches the target.

Exercise intervention: Appropriate physical activity in spare time, 30-40 minutes per day, 5 times a week.

Control group subjects and offspring
The subjects who did not received lifestyle intervention in the original Daqing Diabetes Prevention Study, their spouses, children 1 to 3, and spouses of their offspring were included in the study.
