Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to examine how gender was related to enrollment and number of sessions attended in the National Diabetes Prevention Program's Lifestyle Change Program (DPP LCP).

Methods: To better understand program uptake, a population of those who would be eligible for the LCP was compared to those who enrolled. Estimates of those eligible were computed using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, whereas enrollment and sessions attended were computed using data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Diabetes Prevention Recognition Program.

Results: Results revealed that although similar numbers of males and females were eligible for the program, only 39 321 males versus 121 007 females had enrolled in the National DPP LCP by the end of 2017 (odds ratio = 3.20; 95% CI, 3.17-3.24). The gender differences persisted even when stratifying by age or race/ethnicity. In contrast, no significant gender differences were found between the average number of sessions attended for males (14.0) and females (13.8).

Discussion: Results of the study can help inform efforts to market and tailor programs to appeal more directly to men and other groups that are underrepresented in the National DPP LCP.

国家糖尿病预防计划生活方式改变计划中性别差异的检验。

目的:本研究的目的是研究性别与参加国家糖尿病预防计划生活方式改变计划(DPP LCP)的人数和会议次数之间的关系。方法:为了更好地了解项目的吸收情况，将符合LCP条件的人群与入组人群进行比较。根据国家健康和营养检查调查的数据计算出符合条件的估计人数，而根据疾病控制和预防中心的糖尿病预防识别计划的数据计算出登记人数和参加的会议。结果:结果显示，尽管符合计划条件的男女人数相近，但截至2017年底，只有39 321名男性和121 007名女性参加了全国民pp LCP(优势比= 3.20;95% ci, 3.17-3.24)。即使按年龄或种族/民族分层，性别差异仍然存在。相比之下，男性(14.0次)和女性(13.8次)的平均参加次数之间没有明显的性别差异。讨论:这项研究的结果可以为营销和定制方案的努力提供信息，以更直接地吸引男性和其他在全国民进党LCP中代表性不足的群体。
