Objective:To assess whether an average of 10 years of lifestyle intervention designed to reduce weight and increase physical activity lowers the prevalence of cognitive impairment among adults at increased risk due to type 2 diabetes and obesity or overweight.Methods:Central adjudication of mild cognitive impairment and probable dementia was based on standardized cognitive test battery scores administered to 3,802 individuals who had been randomly assigned, with equal probability, to either the lifestyle intervention or the diabetes support and education control. When scores fell below a prespecified threshold, functional information was obtained through proxy interview.Results:Compared with control, the intensive lifestyle intervention induced and maintained marked differences in weight loss and self-reported physical activity throughout follow-up. At an average (range) of 11.4 (9.5–13.5) years after enrollment, when participants' mean age was 69.6 (54.9–87.2) years, the prevalence of mild cognitive impairment and probable dementia was 6.4% and 1.8%, respectively, in the intervention group, compared with 6.6% and 1.8%, respectively, in the control group (p = 0.93). The lack of an intervention effect on the prevalence of cognitive impairment was consistent among individuals grouped by cardiovascular disease history, diabetes duration, sex, and APOE ε4 allele status (all p ≥ 0.50). However, there was evidence (p = 0.03) that the intervention effect ranged from benefit to harm across participants ordered from lowest to highest baseline BMI.Conclusions:Ten years of behavioral weight loss intervention did not result in an overall difference in the prevalence of cognitive impairment among overweight or obese adults with type 2 diabetes.Clinicaltrials.gov identifier:NCT00017953 (Action for Health in Diabetes).Level of evidence:This study provides Class II evidence that for overweight adults with type 2 diabetes, a lifestyle intervention designed to reduce weight and increase physical activity does not lower the risk of cognitive impairment.

Background: Breakfast skipping is linked to obesity and related cardiometabolic outcomes in observational studies, but the association between breakfast eating and weight loss is not well-established. We examined if weight loss outcomes in Look AHEAD were related to breakfast consumption frequency (BCF). Methods: We included a subset of participants (n=3862) from the public access dataset of Look AHEAD, an RCT that compared intensive lifestyle intervention (ILI) to diabetes support and education (DSE) control in adults with overweight/obesity and type 2 diabetes. A self-reported questionnaire collected BCF over a 7-day week annually. This value (0-7) was averaged across 4 years of the intervention to calculate an average BCF. We used robust multivariable linear regression analysis to estimate the association between % weight change and 4-year average BCF controlling for baseline sociodemographics, BMI, and diabetes-related variables. In separate models, we adjusted for self-reported caloric intake (n=880) and self-reported physical activity level (n=735) among those with data. Results: 4-year average BCF was similar in DSE (n=1914) and ILI (n=1948) arms, with a median of 7 days (IQR 6-7) for both arms (p=0.11). Each 1 day increase in average BCF was associated with an additional 0.43% weight loss in the ILI arm (p=0.002) but not in the DSE arm (β-coefficient 0.04% weight loss; p=0.73; p-interaction for arm x BCF=0.01). This association in the ILI arm remained significant after adjustment for daily caloric intake (p=0.04) but not after adjustment for physical activity (p=0.16). Conclusions: Breakfast consumption was associated with greater weight loss in subjects who received ILI, which was attenuated after adjustment for caloric intake and physical activity. To optimize weight loss interventions, the relationship between breakfast consumption and other weight loss behaviors should be further explored.

Partial or complete remission from type 2 diabetes was recently observed after bariatric surgeries. Limited data is available about the possibility of inducing diabetes remission through intensive weight reduction. We retrospectively evaluated diabetes remissions after one year of the Weight Achievement and Intensive Treatment (Why WAIT) program, a 12-week intensive program for diabetes weight management in real-world clinical practice. Among 120 obese patients with type 2 diabetes who completed the program, 88 patients returned for follow-up at one year. Nineteen patients (21.6%) had major improvement in their glycemic control, defined as achieving an A1C <6.5% after one year. Four patients (4.5%) achieved either partial or complete diabetes remission defined as A1C <6.5% and <5.7%, respectively, on no antihyperglycemic medications for one year; 2 achieved partial remission (2.3%) and 2 achieved complete remission (2.3%). At the time of intervention, patients who achieved diabetes remission had shorter diabetes duration (<5 years) and lower A1C (<8%) and were treated with fewer than 2 oral medications. They achieved a weight reduction of >7% after 12 weeks. These results indicate that a subset of obese patients with type 2 diabetes is appropriate for intensive lifestyle intervention with the aim of inducing diabetes remission.
