Alternative care models are needed to address the needs of this population.
Methods: Team Clinic is a person-centered virtual peer group (VPG) care model that was assessed in a 15-month, pragmatic randomized controlled trial.
Background: No trial to date has tested the effects of late time-restricted eating (lTRE) on glycemic control or body composition in adolescents with type 2 diabetes (T2D).
Objective: The objective of the current study was to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of lTRE compared to a prolonged eating window in adolescents with T2D.
Design: A 12-week, randomized, controlled, feasibility study of lTRE compared to control in adolescents with obesity and new onset T2D was conducted.
