First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 17 times

Summary

This study looked at a program called COPE that helps Navajo people with diabetes and other chronic conditions. The program uses community health workers to support patients and connect them with doctors. Researchers compared people in the program to those not in it to see if it improved blood sugar, blood pressure, and other health measures. The goal was to learn if the program works, not to test a new drug or treatment.
