Background: Real life implementation studies performed in different settings/populations proved that lifestyle interventions in prevention of DM2 can be effective. However, little is known about long term results of these translational studies and determinants of the outcomes.Aim: The purpose of this study was to examine the maintenance of diabetes type 2 risk factor during 3 year follow-up and to examine determinants of long term outcomes.<p class="...

Background: Different management modalities are used to control hyperglycaemia associated with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Research has indicated an association of single or combined insulin therapy with increased cardiovascular events.

Introduction: Extended up to 20 years follow-up of several randomised control trials showed 34–43% diabetes risk reduction. Real life implementation studies performed worldwide in different settings and populations proved that also non-intensive, low budget lifestyle interventions can be effective. However little is known about long-term results of the translational studies.Objective: To study the risk factors changes of the DEPLAN non-intensive lif...
