NCT ID NCT07659535
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing whether a digital tool that encourages self-reflection and healthy habits can prevent type 2 diabetes. Over 40,000 adults without diabetes will use the app or receive usual care for three years. Researchers will track how many people develop diabetes in each group to see if the tool makes a difference.
