Abstract

? DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate, when compared to usual care, the efficacy of 3 different technology-supported approaches to engaging 300 individuals with diabetes and concurrent chronic kidney disease in weight loss, physical activity, dietary sodium restriction, and dietary restriction of inorganic phosphates. Participants will be randomized to 1 of 4 groups, Usual Care (UC), Social Cognitive Theory-based Group Counseling (SCT), Mobile self-monitoring with tailored feedback and advice (MONITORING), or a combination of SCT plus MONITORING conditions (COMBINED). We will evaluate the intervention arms primarily in terms of weight reduction, urinary sodium excretion, and serum phosphorus. We will explore the impact on physical activity, blood pressure, fasting lipids, medication requirements, and pulse wave velocity. Measurements will occur at baseline, 6, and 12 months. Interaction effects will be examined using a 2-way ANOVA. Statistical modeling of baseline, 6 mos and 12 mos outcomes will be based on logistic generalized linear mixed models (for binary outcomes) linear mixed models (for continuous outcomes), and random effects multinomial models (for outcomes with more than 2 levels, such as changes in medication management). The mediating effect of self-efficacy on the primary outcomes will be evaluated using structural equation models.
