About this study

Official title: Lifestyle Changes in Patients With Type 2 DM and Hypertension: DASH Diet and Exercise Effects

Data obtained in hypertensive patients without diabetes suggest that increased association of non-pharmacological treatment in patients with diabetes and hypertension may be associated with an improvement in blood pressure control. Despite the beneficial results found, is not yet known the magnitude of the effect of a DASH diet associated with the stimulus of physical activity on BP in patients with type 2 diabetes. The beneficial effects on blood pressure of an additional non-pharmacological intervention to drug therapy may have an even greater impact in patients with treatment-resistant hypertension The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of changes in lifestyle on blood pressure in patients with type 2 diabetes and hypertension resistant to treatment.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of changes in lifestyle on blood pressure in patients with type 2 diabetes and hypertension. Secondary objectives are: Assess whether the prescription of a DASH-type diet and encouragement for physical activity through use of pedometers, can improve blood pressure control in patients with type 2 diabetes and hypertension resistant to treatment.

Forty type 2 diabetic with resistant hypertension outpatients were included in a randomized clinical trial: treatment 1- DASH diet + encouragement for physical activity through use of pedometer; treatment 2- ADA diet + usual exercises. The duration of each treatment are four weeks. The patients included should have performed Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) to exclude white-coat effect, ie when there are abnormal in the measurement of office blood pressure (equal to or above 140/90 mm Hg) and normal blood pressure by ABPM during the awake period (equal to or below 135/85 mm Hg). Twenty-four hour records with concurrent 24h urinary collections (protein intake estimative), clinical and laboratory evaluation were performed at baseline and after 4 weeks. Serum fatty acids were measured in total lipids by gas chromatography.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • DASH diet plus exerciseOther

    Also called LYFESTYLE INTERVENTION

    DASH diet adapted to the usual diet of Brazilian type 2 diabetic patients = prescription of a normocaloric diet including fruits, vegetables, grain products, low fat dairy foods, legumes, without sugar, and with limited fat

    Exercises: the recommended physical activity will consist of using a pedometer during the experimental period.

  • ADA dietOther

    Also called Active comparator: ADA DIET

    Adoption of ADA diet.
