Abstract

Introduction: Efforts to lower glycosylated hemoglobin (A1c) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are intended to reduce the risk of diabetic complications, but A1c is not the only factor contributing to this risk. Consequently, we re-analyzed published data from a broad-spectrum lifestyle intervention that lowered A1c to assess its effectiveness in lowering the overall risk of two complications of T2D, namely, coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke.

Methods: Data from 37 adults who participated in a randomized clinical trial of a lifestyle intervention intended to reduce postprandial glucose (PPG) were re-analyzed for their pre- and post-treatment risk of CHD and stroke using the T2D-specific UK Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS) v2.0 risk algorithm.

Results: Compared to participants who received routine care, those using the lifestyle intervention had a significantly greater reduction in 10-year risk for CHD, but not for stroke.

Conclusion: These secondary analyses suggest that broad-spectrum lifestyle interventions that focus on lowering PPG may lower the risk of future CHD, which could guide future research.
