NCT01679210

Brief Summary

The overall goal of this randomized controlled trial is to test the efficacy of a culturally and linguistically modified, individually-tailored lifestyle intervention to reduce risk factors for type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease among postpartum Hispanic women with a history of abnormal glucose tolerance during pregnancy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (14)

  • Postpartum weight change

    Postpartum weight change will be measured as the difference between weight at 6 or 12 mos postpartum and weight at delivery. Weight will be measured on a digital scale.

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

  • Percent of participants meeting postpartum weight goals

    Postpartum weight goals will be defined as weight change to prepregnancy weight if prepregnancy BMI was normal, or a 5% change towards prepregnancy weight if prepregnancy BMI was overweight/obese. Weight will be measured on a digital scale.

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

  • Fasting Glucose (FG)

    Fasting Glucose (FG) will be measured enzymatically on the Roche P Modular system using Roche Diagnostics reagents (Indianapolis, IN)(mg/dL).

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

  • Fasting Insulin (FI)

    Fasting Insulin (FI) will be measured by an electrochemiluminescence immunoassay on the Roche E Modular system in uU/mL.

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

  • Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)

    The Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) determination on the Roche P Modular system will be based on turbidimetric immunoinhibition using packed red cells.

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

  • Leptin

    Leptin will be measured by an ultra-sensitive ELISA assay, an enzymatically amplified "two-step" sandwich-type immunoassay (R\&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) (pg/mL).

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

  • Total Adiponectin

    Total Adiponectin (Multimeric) will be measured using an ELISA method from ALPCO Diagnostics Inc. (Salem, NH).

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

  • Lipoprotein Profile

    Lipoprotein Profile: will be simultaneously performed on the Roche P Modular system. Total Cholesterol will be measured enzymatically (mg/dL). Triglycerides will be measured enzymatically with correction for endogenous glycerol (mg/dL). The concentration of High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol will be determined using a direct enzymatic colorimetric assay (mg/dL). Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol will be determined by a homogenous direct method (mg/dL).

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

  • High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein

    The concentration of High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hsCRP) will be determined using an immunoturbidimetric assay on the Roche P Modular system using reagents and calibrators from DiaSorin (Stillwater, MN) (mg/L).

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

  • TNF

    TNF-receptor II is measured by an ELISA assay from R\&D Systems (pg/mL).

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

  • Albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR)

    Albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR): Albumin will be measured by a colorimetric assay, an automated dye-binding method using the Roche P Modular system and Roche Diagnostics reagents (Indianapolis, IN) (g/dL). Creatinine will be measured by an enzymatic method using the Roche P Modular system and Roche Diagnostics reagents (Indianapolis, IN) (mg/dL).

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

  • Fetuin-A

    Fetuin-A will be measured by an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) (BioVendor - Candler, NC) (ng/mL).

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

  • Physical activity

    Total activity according to intensity will be measured via the Pregnancy Physical Activity Questionnaire (PPAQ) and hip worn accelerometer. (MET-hrs/week).

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

  • Dietary Intake

    Total calories, along with the other nutrients, will be measured via three 24-hr dietary recalls.

    6 weeks postpartum, 6 months postpartum, 12 months postpartum

Lifestyle Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Stage-matched physical activity and diet intervention materials and health education.

Behavioral: Lifestyle Intervention

NO INTERVENTION

HW served as the comparison group and received the same number of in-person sessions, telephone calls, and mailings at the same time points as LI. Content was limited to general information available to the public from the ACOG and the American Academy of Pediatrics and did not mention exercise behavior change.
