What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tested whether an online diabetes self-management program could help newly diagnosed adults with type 2 diabetes learn about their condition and improve health measures. 123 participants were split into online education, face-to-face education, or a no-education control group. After three months, both education groups had better diabetes knowledge and lower body mass index (BMI) than the control group, but there was no significant change in blood sugar levels (HbA1c). The online group actually showed better immediate knowledge gains than the in-person group.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Online diabetes self-management education program
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could offer a flexible, accessible way to help newly diagnosed adults manage type 2 diabetes through online education.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study without a randomized design, so results may not apply broadly. The online education did not improve blood sugar levels (HbA1c) in the short term.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Adults aged 18 years or older. * Diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus within the previous 1 month. * Ability to access and use information and communication technology devices (smartphone, computer, or tablet). * Proficiency in the language used for the educational intervention. * Ability and willingness to provide written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Pregnancy. * Current treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus with antidiabetic medication (oral agents, injectable medications, or insulin). * Previous participation in a diabetes self-management education program. * Presence of concomitant diseases or treatments that could affect blood glucose levels (e.g., cancer or corticosteroid treatment). * Visual impairment, cognitive impairment, literacy difficulties, or manual dexterity limitations that could interfere with participation. * Development of any exclusion criterion during the study period. * Deterioration in health status or occurrence of events that, in the opinion of the investigators, warranted discontinuation from the study.
