Motivation, accountability, and outcomes in a randomized controlled trial of internet weight-loss programs in primary care.

This study explored whether baseline autonomous motivation (AM), controlled motivation (CM), and relative autonomy index (RAI) scores predicted 12-month weight in a three-arm randomized controlled trial of internet weight loss programs in primary care. It also evaluated perceived accountability to a primary care provider for weight loss as a moderator and study engagement (operationalized as weeks logged into the study website) as a mediator of these relationships. Participants with complete data for all model variables ( = 428) were included.

Disordered eating attitudes and behaviours among older adults with type 1 diabetes: An exploratory study.

Aims: We explored the prevalence of disordered eating behaviours (DEBs) and attitudes among older adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and associations with demographic and clinical variables.

Methods: Adults aged ≥65 years with T1D from a university-affiliated hospital system completed an electronic survey (September to November 2023) including the Diabetes Eating Problem Survey-Revised (DEPS-R). Clinical data were extracted from medical records.

The Cross-sectional Relationship Between Use of Automatic Insulin Delivery Systems and Eating Styles Among Older Adults With Type 1 Diabetes: An Exploratory Analysis.

Background: The number of older adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is increasing. Use of automated insulin delivery (AID) may influence nutrition and eating behaviors. We explored how three eating styles (restrained, external, emotional) differ between older adults with T1D who use and do not use AID.

Results of a pilot sequential multiple assignment randomized trial using counseling to augment a digital weight loss program.

Objective: Adaptive interventions may improve the potency and scalability of behavioral weight loss interventions, but the treatments-or treatment combinations-that should be offered are unknown. A two-stage pilot sequential multiple assignment randomized trial was used to test the timing and dose of human support added to a core digital weight loss program.

Methods: In stage 1, 99 adults with overweight/obesity were randomized at baseline to a kick-off with or without additional human support.

24-h energy expenditure in people with type 1 diabetes: impact on equations for clinical estimation of energy expenditure.

Background/objectives: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is associated with an increase in resting metabolic rate (RMR), but the impact of T1D on other components of 24-h energy expenditure (24-h EE) is not known. Also, there is a lack of equations to estimate 24-h EE in patients with T1D. The aims of this analysis were to compare 24-h EE and its components in young adults with T1D and healthy controls across the spectrum of body mass index (BMI) and derive T1D-specific equations from clinical variables.
