Dairy products are integral parts of healthy diets; however, their association with cardiometabolic (CM) health among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) undergoing weight management is debated. We examined the relationship between dairy consumption and CM biomarkers in 45 subjects with T2D and obesity (mean age 56 ± 9 yrs, 40% female) enrolled in a 12-week intensive multidisciplinary weight management (IMWM) program. After the IMWM program (intervention phase), subjects were followed for 12 weeks (maintenance phase). We stratified subjects based on initial average dairy consumption into infrequent (IFR), less-frequent (LFR), and frequent (FR) consumers. Outcomes were assessed at baseline, 12, and 24 weeks. There were no differences between tertiles at baseline except for higher total energy intake among FR compared with IFR. HbA1c changes showed no association with dairy consumption at 12 or 24 weeks. FR Females achieved greater weight loss at 12 weeks compared with IFR peers (−4.5 kg; 95%CI: −5.5, −3.5). There was a trend towards lower HDL-C with increasing dairy consumption during the intervention phase. In subjects with T2D and overweight or obesity, dairy consumption during weight management is not associated with HbA1c changes but with lower HDL-C and with higher magnitude of weight loss among females.

Abstract Background: In people with overweight/obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D), achievement of weight loss can be a challenge. STEP 2 investigated the efficacy and safety of semaglutide 2.4 mg for weight management in adults with overweight/obesity and T2D. Methods: This randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial was conducted at 149 sites across 12 countries (NCT03552757). Adults aged ≥18 years with body mass index (BMI) ≥27 kg/m2, T2D, HbA1c between 7–10% (53–86 mmol/mol), and receiving ≤3 oral glucose-lowering agents were randomized 1:1:1 to once-weekly subcutaneous (s.c.) semaglutide 2.4 mg or 1.0 mg, or placebo, as adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity for 68 weeks. The co-primary endpoints were percentage change in body weight and proportion of participants achieving weight loss ≥5% for semaglutide 2.4 mg vs placebo. Cardiovascular risk factors, glycemia and safety/tolerability were also assessed. Two estimands were defined: treatment policy and trial product; results are presented for the treatment policy estimand, unless stated otherwise. Results: 1,210 participants (mean: age 55 years, body weight 99.8 kg, BMI 35.7 kg/m2, HbA1c 8.1%, diabetes duration 8.0 years; 50.9% female) were randomized. Mean body weight change from baseline to week 68 was −9.6% with semaglutide 2.4 mg vs −3.4% with placebo (estimated treatment difference [ETD]: −6.2%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: −7.3, −5.2; p<0.0001) and −7.0% for semaglutide 1.0 mg (ETD for semaglutide 2.4 mg vs 1.0 mg: −2.7%; 95% CI: −3.7, −1.6; p<0.0001). Similar results were obtained with the trial product estimand: mean body weight change −10.6% for semaglutide 2.4 mg vs −3.1% for placebo (ETD: −7.6%; 95% CI: −8.6, −6.6; p<0.0001) and 7.6% for semaglutide 1.0 mg (ETD vs semaglutide 2.4 mg: −3.1%; 95% CI: −4.1, −2.1; p<0.0001). Participants on semaglutide 2.4 mg were more likely to achieve weight loss ≥5%, ≥10%, ≥15% and ≥20% vs placebo (68.8% vs 28.5%, 45.6% vs 8.2%, 25.8% vs 3.2% and 13.1% vs 1.6%, respectively; p value for odds ratios <0.0001 for all). Mean change in HbA1c from baseline to week 68 was −1.6% for semaglutide 2.4 mg vs −0.4% for placebo (p<0.0001). Greater improvements with semaglutide 2.4 mg vs placebo were also seen in waist circumference, BMI, systolic blood pressure, fasting plasma glucose, C-reactive protein, and lipids (HDL, VLDL, free fatty acids, and triglycerides) (p<0.05 for all). The most frequent adverse events were gastrointestinal disorders (typically transient and mild-to-moderate), occurring in 57.5%, 63.5% and 34.3% of participants receiving semaglutide 1.0 mg, 2.4 mg and placebo, respectively. Conclusion: Semaglutide 2.4 mg, as adjunct to lifestyle intervention, was efficacious and well tolerated for weight management in adults with overweight or obesity and T2D, providing significantly greater weight loss vs placebo and semaglutide 1.0 mg at week 68.

ObjectiveWe evaluated the relationship between frequency of self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) and body weight, A1C, and cardiovascular risk factors in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity enrolled in a 12-week intensive multidisciplinary weight management (IMWM) program.Research design and methodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of 42 patients who electronically uploaded their SMBG data over 12 weeks of an IMWM program and divided them into tertiles based on their average frequency of SMBG per day. Mean (range) SMBG frequencies were 2.3 (1.1–2.9) times/day, 3.4 (3–3.9) times/day, and 5 (4–7.7) times/day in the lowest, middle, and highest tertiles, respectively. Anthropometric and metabolic parameters were measured at baseline and after 12 weeks of intervention.ResultsParticipants in the highest tertile achieved a median change (IQR) in body weight of −10.4 kg (−7.6 to −14.4 kg) compared with −8.3 kg (−5.2 to −12.2 kg), and −6.9 kg (−4.2 to −8.9 kg) in the middle and lowest tertiles, respectively (p=0.018 for trend). Participants in the highest tertile had a median change (IQR) in A1C of −1.25% (−0.6 to −3.1%) compared with −0.8% (−0.3% to −2%) and −0.5% (−0.2% to −1.2%) in the middle and lowest tertiles, respectively (p=0.048 for trend). The association between change in body weight and SMBG frequency remained significant after adjusting for age, sex, baseline body mass index, diabetes duration, and use of insulin therapy.ConclusionsIncreased frequency of SMBG during IMWM is associated with significantly better weight loss and improvement of A1C in patients with T2D and obesity. These findings may suggest future clinical recommendations aimed at increasing SMBG frequency to achieve the most favorable outcomes.

BACKGROUND The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity is increasing, and the way people interact with health care is evolving. People traditionally access advice and support to improve their lifestyle and learn more about the self-management of T2DM in a face-to-face setting. Although these services have a strong evidence base, they have limitations for reaching specific groups of people. Digital programs could provide a new delivery model to help more people access health education and behavior change support, but long-term data supporting these programs are limited. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this service evaluation was to analyze the weight change of people who participated in OurPath (also known as Second Nature), a UK-based digital lifestyle change program, for either weight management or diabetes-related weight management and structured education at 6 and 12 months. METHODS Participants either paid to access the program privately (self-funded clients) or were referred by their general practitioner to participate in the program free of charge (funded by the National Health Service). Additional follow-up support was provided to help people to maintain lifestyle changes. To retrospectively assess potential weight loss, the analysis included data from participants who submitted weight readings at baseline and 6 and 12 months after starting the program. Changes in weight after 6 and 12 months were primary outcome measures. RESULTS For the 896 participants who submitted baseline and 6- and 12-month data, a significant change in mean weight of −7.12 kg (−7.50%; SD 6.37; <italic>P</italic>&lt;.001) was observed at 6 months. Data from the same participants at 12 months showed a change in mean weight when compared with a baseline of −6.14 kg (−6.48%; SD 6.97; <italic>P</italic>&lt;.001). CONCLUSIONS The data presented here had several limitations, and there were too many uncertainties to make any reliable conclusions. However, these results suggest that digital lifestyle change programs could provide a new way to help people to access nutritional advice and support to achieve weight loss. Further research into digital education and coaching platforms is needed to establish their effectiveness.

IntroductionHigh body mass index (BMI) is associated with risk of diabetes. Lorcaserin is a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine 2C agonist which exerts robust benefits on long-term weight loss by suppressing appetite among adults with overweight or obesity. The magnitude of efficacy of lorcaserin for preventing and remitting type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among those people remains undefined. Therefore, we plan to conduct this systematic review and meta-analysis to aggregate data from all published studies with regard to the issue to acquire reliable evidence.Methods and analysisWe will search various databases for relevant trials published up to June 2019. Randomised controlled trials investigating the efficacy of lorcaserin for preventing and remitting T2DM among overweight and obese population will be included. A standardised data form will be used to complete data search and extraction in duplicate. All discrepancies will be resolved by consensus. The primary outcome will be incidence of T2DM in patients with pre-diabetes. Secondary outcomes will include achievement of normoglycaemia in people with pre-diabetes, remission of hyperglycaemia in patients with diabetes, the proportion of patients with weight loss of at least 5% or 10% and hypoglycaemia incident. Data synthesis and statistical analysis will be performed for each outcome with Stata V.14.0.Ethics and disseminationEthics approval is not required. Results of our study will be submitted to a peer-review journal.PROSPERO registration numberCRD42019119136.

Introduction: A specialist weight management service provides an effective treatment option for severe obesity; however, there are limited data exploring the baseline predictors of response and effect on HbA1c following engagement with the service.Methods: We used prospective data from the regional weight management services within the Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust Tier 3 Obesity Programme. Data were available for 249 patients referred to the service. T-tests were used for univariate baseline characteristics of those with and without 5% weight loss after engagement with the service. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent predictors of weight loss at 12 months.Results: A total of 309 patients were referred to the Tier 3 adult weight management service, of which 249 (80.6%) participated in the programme and had at least one follow-up. The median age of the study population was 46 years (range 36–55) and consisted of 66% females with a median baseline body mass index of 44 kg/m2 (range 42–45). The prevalence of type 2 diabetes was 31%, hypertension was 35%, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease was 34% and osteoarthritis was 29%. The median baseline weight on enrolment in the programme was 126 kg (range 115–138). During the follow-up period of 1 year, the median weight fell to 120.5 kg at 3 months, 119.6 kg at 6 months, 117.7 kg at 9 months and 117.5 kg at 12 months. The median HbA1c fell from a baseline of 60.25 mmol/mol to 54.4 mmol/mol during the follow-up period. Sixty-four patients had a baseline HbA1c of >53 mmol/mol (7% HbA1c), which fell to <53 mmol/mol in 21% of patients during the follow-up period. In the logistic regression model, higher age (OR 1.05, p=0.0001), type 2 diabetes (OR 2.54, p=0.002) and dyslipidaemia (OR 2.21, p=0.03) were independently associated with more than 5% weight loss at 12 months follow-up.Conclusion: Engagement with Tier 3 adult weight management is associated with significant weight loss and improvement in glycaemic control in a large proportion of patients at one year. Higher age, diabetes and dyslipidaemia at baseline are independent predictors of weight loss on the Tier 3 weight management service.

The lack of long-term maintenance of the weight loss achieved during weight-management programs is the major cause of failure in obesity treatments. The identification of factors related to this outcome has clinical implications. Therefore, we aimed to assess the relationship between sarcopenic obesity (SO) and the weight-loss percentage (WL%). The WL% was measured at the six-month follow-up and after more than 12 months, in 46 adult participants with obesity, during an individualized weight-management program where participants were categorized as having or not having SO at the baseline. At the six-month follow-up, participants with SO did not display a significant difference in terms of WL%, when compared to those without SO (−10.49 ± 5.75% vs. −12.73 ± 4.30%; p = 0.148). However, after a longer term (i.e., >12 months), the WL% appeared to be significantly lower in the former (SO vs. non-SO) (−7.34 ± 6.29% vs. −11.43 ± 4.31%; p = 0.024). In fact, partial correlation analysis revealed a relationship between SO at the baseline and a lower WL% after more than 12 months (ρ = −0.425, p = 0.009), after controlling for age, sex, and body mass index (BMI). Participants with SO appeared to face more difficulties in maintaining the achieved WL over a longer term (>12 months follow-up) by comparison with their counterparts (i.e., non-SO). Should this finding be replicated in larger-sample studies, new strategies should be adopted for these patients in order to improve this clinical outcome, especially during the weight-maintenance phase.
