Study Arms (2)

Combined lifestyle intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Lifestyle counselling (nutrition and physical activity) by dietician and physiotherapist during 10-month intervention period

Behavioral: Combined lifestyle intervention

Usual care group

OTHER

Subjects receive brochures on healthy lifestyle at baseline, and during the 10-month intervention period only usual care as provided by their own general practitioner.

Other: Usual care group

Interventions

10-month intervention period with: * weekly group-based sports lessons supervised by a physiotherapist * individual dietary advice by a dietician * case management by practice nurse * maintenance programme to guide subjects to maintain lifestyle behaviour change

Also known as: SLIMMER intervention
Combined lifestyle intervention

Written information on healthy lifestyle was provided at baseline, no individual advice or programme was provided. No additional appointments were scheduled, apart from the visits for follow-up measurements

Usual care group

Eligibility Criteria

Age40 Years - 70 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Age 40-70 years
  • Impaired fasting glucose (IFG; i.e. venous plasma glucose concentration ≥6.1 and
  • ≤6.9 mmol/l) during the past 5 years, according to the GP registration database OR diabetes risk score ≥7 as calculated from the Diabetes Risk Test
  • Willing and able to participate in the intervention for at least 1.5 years
  • Dutch speaking

You may not qualify if:

  • Known diabetes mellitus
  • Any chronic illness that makes 1.5-years survival improbable, interferes with glucose tolerance, or makes participation in a lifestyle intervention impossible
  • Patients with any severe cardiovascular disease (this also includes history of cardiac dysrhythmia), unless GP gives agreement
  • Medication known to interfere with glucose tolerance
  • Any mental or physical disability that will hinder participation in the lifestyle intervention
  • Severe psychiatric disease
  • Patients who showed bad compliance in the past
  • Participation in another regular vigorous exercise and/or diet programme, i.e.:
  • Intensive exercise programme: any exercise programme offered by a physiotherapist and/or patients sporting at least 3 times a week at their own initiative.
  • Intensive diet programme: patients who visited a dietician at least 3 times during the last year.
