- Note: CI = confidence interval, ANCOVA = analysis of covariance with treatment, stratum, and pooled site effects and the corresponding baseline value as covariate used for the change from baseline (difference: endpoint-baseline) with p-values based on actual data.
-
*HbA1c – glycosylated hemoglobin.
-
†FPG – fasting plasma glucose.
-
‡OAD – oral anti-diabetes drug.
-
§OAD score = sum of all OADs prescribed; OAD ½ to maximum dose = 1 OAD.
-
¶These are between-group results where change from workshop to 15 months was compared between intervention and control groups using ANCOVA, treatment effect is adjusted for baseline effect and pooled site effect.
-
**Intensification of diabetes management – Increased dose of OAD or insulin, increased OAD score, or the addition of insulin; Intensification is a one-time post workshop variable, therefore no within group differences.
