Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The lifestyle program intervention program focusing on healthy dietary habit and exercise effectively prevents metabolic syndrome, sarcopenia or frailty. Thus, the purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of intervention program on metabolic syndrome subjects in Taiwan.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Behavioral: self-management skills and healthy technology APP
N/A

Detailed Description

The study is a 2-parallel groups' randomized controlled trial. Participants with metabolic syndrome (three or more risk factors - triglycerides (TG) >150 mg/dL, systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥130 mm Hg, diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥85 mm Hg, or fasting blood glucose≥100 mg/dL; high-density lipoprotein cholesterol<50 mg/dL, or waist circumference ≥80 cm) are enrolled. The four community units are randomized to receive a lifestyle intervention (intervention arm) or an education leaflet (control arm). The parameters are obtained from physical examination and biochemical assessments by well-trained case manager at baseline and 4th months. All participants complete a structured questionnaire, including basic information, SOF, physical performance, physical activity, and food-frequency.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. metabolic syndrome [4 month follow up]

    changes in triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, waist circumference

    weight in kilograms

  3. BMI [4 month follow up]

    weight and height will be combined to report BMI in kg/m^2

  4. Frailty [4 month follow up]

    measurement used study of osteoporotic fracture index (SOF).

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. short physical performance battery [4 month follow up]

    sit-to-stand, standing balance, and gait-speed

  2. upper limb muscle strength [4 month follow up]

    hand-grip strength

  3. static balance ability [4 month follow up]

    single-leg standing with the eyes open

  4. physical agility and dynamic balance ability [4 month follow up]

    Timed-Up and Go and Functional Reach Test

Other Outcome Measures

  1. Physical activity [4 month follow up]

    used International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ)

  2. dietary behaviors [4 month follow up]

    intake rate of whole grains, vegetables, fruits, proteins, dairy products, and nuts.
