The control group received general dietary and exercise advice at baseline and had an annual physician\u2019s examination. The subjects in the intervention group received additional individualized dietary counseling from a nutritionist. They were also offered circuit-type resistance training sessions and advised to increase overall physical activity. The intervention was the most intensive during the first year, followed by a maintenance period. The intervention goals were to reduce body weight, reduce dietary and saturated fat, and increase physical activity and dietary fiber.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>RESULTS\u2014The intervention group showed significantly greater improvement in each intervention goal. After 1 and 3 years, weight reductions were 4.5 and 3.5 kg in the intervention group and 1.0 and 0.9 kg in the control group, respectively. Measures of glycemia and lipemia improved more in the intervention group.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>CONCLUSIONS\u2014The intensive lifestyle intervention produced long-term beneficial changes in diet, physical activity, and clinical and biochemical parameters and reduced diabetes risk. This type of intervention is a feasible option to prevent type 2 diabetes and should be implemented in the primary health care system.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2337\/diacare.26.12.3230","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,3,5]],"date-time":"2007-03-05T22:51:27Z","timestamp":1173135087000},"page":"3230-3236","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.2337\/ada-journal-policies","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1055,"title":["The Finnish Diabetes Prevention Study (DPS)"],"prefix":"10.2337","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"Jaana","family":"Lindstro\u0308m","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Diabetes and Genetic Epidemiology Unit, Department of Epidemiology and Health Promotion, National Public Health Institute, Helsinki, Finland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anne","family":"Louheranta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Nutrition, University of Kuopio, Kuopio, Finland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marjo","family":"Mannelin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Sport Medicine, Oulu Deaconess Institute, Oulu, Finland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Merja","family":"Rastas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research and Development Centre, Social Insurance Institution, Turku, Finland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Virpi","family":"Salminen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Nursing and Health Care, Tampere, Finland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Johan","family":"Eriksson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Diabetes and Genetic Epidemiology Unit, Department of Epidemiology and Health Promotion, National Public Health Institute, Helsinki, Finland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Matti","family":"Uusitupa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Nutrition, University of Kuopio, Kuopio, Finland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jaakko","family":"Tuomilehto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Diabetes and Genetic Epidemiology Unit, Department of Epidemiology and Health Promotion, National Public Health Institute, Helsinki, Finland"},{"name":"Department of Public Health, University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"name":"for the Finnish Diabetes Prevention Study Group","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1167","reference":[{"key":"2022031214525718800_R1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Tuomilehto J, Lindstro\u0308m J, Eriksson JG, Valle TT, Ha\u0308ma\u0308la\u0308inen H, Ilanne-Parikka P, Keina\u0308nen-Kiukaanniemi S, Laakso M, Louheranta A, Rastas M, Salminen V, Uusitupa M: Prevention of type 2 diabetes mellitus by changes in lifestyle among subjects with impaired glucose tolerance.
