Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Several studies have shown that adoption of an active lifestyle by at-risk individuals dramatically reduces the risk of T2D. However, there are currently no established methods for providing support to high-risk individuals from different cultural and social backgrounds to help them adopt beneficial lasting lifestyle changes. Instead of just waiting for Iraqi high-risk individuals to develop T2D, this project will implement and assess lifestyle intervention programs aimed at reducing the risk of developing T2D and tailored to individuals with a different social and cultural background.
The study thus seeks to optimize preventive action in health care and aims to facilitate the adoption of permanent changes in lifestyle in high-risk patients, taking account of cultural and social barriers.
Since T2D is associated with a sedentary lifestyle and develops earlier in men than women and an average 10 years earlier in immigrants from the Middle East than in native Swedes, it is crucial to study pathogenic mechanisms triggering T2D development in relation to sex, lifestyle and ethnic background. The results will provide the basis for deciding how health care providers can actively work to prevent T2D and other lifestyle-associated diseases in this high-risk population that has not been studied before.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Lifestyle intervention
Lifestyle intervention: 500 participants from Iraq with obesity and/or prediabetes (impaired fasting glucose) and we expect to recruit 308 participants. Half of them will be randomized to lifestyle intervention i.e. group counseling and physical activity during a period of 1 year. An equal amount of controls will have treatment as usual. Every third month blood tests and a physical exam will be conducted in the intervention group.
Lifestyle intervention
Increased physical activity and improved food habits
Controls
Controls have treatment as usual. Every third month blood tests and a physical exam will be conducted in the control group.
