The purpose of this study was firstly observe effects over 12 months on Type 2 diabetes (T2D) obesity. Secondarily, we analyzed individual influence changes Methods: This is part a secondary analysis recently published article. research involved 84 participants with T2D, divided into two groups: control group (40 participants) received only medical care, while intervention (44 both care nutritional assessment. Consultations were held quarterly months, follow-up after 3 months. Data Analysis: For analysis, non-normal variables compared using Mann–Whitney test, normal unpaired t-tests. all cases, α = 0.05 p < considered significant. Results: revealed high percentage patients groups who had (70% 72.7% intervention) Regarding infected showed smaller reductions glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) (p 0.0120) systolic blood pressure (SBP) 0.0460). other markers, groups, no significant differences found > 0.05). Conclusion: possibly influenced SBP HbA1c levels people T2D However, caution should be exercised generalizing these results due limitations study. Additionally, does not establish causal relationship, more clinical trials different populations needed fully analyze topic.
