NCT ID NCT06897618

First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tested whether a five-week culturally tailored diabetes education program could help Hispanic men aged 18-64 with type 2 diabetes improve their self-management behaviors like healthy eating, physical activity, and medication use. The program was designed specifically for this group, who often lack access to formal diabetes education. The study was terminated early with only 40 participants, so results are limited.
