NCT ID NCT05524909
First seen May 05, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at whether telling overweight or obese East Asian adults their genetic risk for type 2 diabetes, combined with using a Fitbit activity tracker, could help them become more physically active. About 355 people aged 40-60 took part. Some received only the genetic risk information, while others also got step goals and activity reminders from the Fitbit. The goal was to see if this approach could encourage more exercise and help prevent diabetes.
