EFNEP for Chronic Disease

College Park, Maryland
The goal of this integrated project is to assess whether EFNEP is a cost-effective nutrition education intervention that generates sustained improvement in chronic disease biomarkers. This project will be unique in its use of objective biomarkers, instead of self-reported behaviors, to quantify the economic benefits generated by EFNEP through chronic disease prevention. A paired location untreated control group quasi-experimental design will be employed, with biomarkers (BMI, blood pressure, HbA1c) measured for 500 adults across four representative state EFNEP programs (CO, FL, MD, WA). Biomarkers will be measured pre-EFNEP, 6-months-post-EFNEP and 1-year-post-EFNEP. Analytical techniques will include cost-benefit, bivariate, and multivariate analyses.

This trial will test the hypothesis that a digital curriculum-based nutrition education intervention using the Foodbot Factory serious game (i.e., a game designed for learning) leads to greater student engagement and learning about nutrition, compared to conventional nutrition education (e.g., worksheets), among students in Grades 4 and 5 in Ontario, Canada. This hypothesis is based on existing research suggesting that digital serious games, when well-integrated into the classroom setting, promote greater student engagement, learning and knowledge retention.

These are the exploratory aims of the original trial cohort study "Old School Hip Hop RCT (AAAR5473)," which recruited 783 parents. 1. Continued follow-up of these families to learn more about the durability of the program through similar assessments to those used during the pre-specified 3-month initial study timeframe - aiming to understand participant knowledge and personal experiences with family members or friends affected by Alzheimer's Disease (AD). 2. Further examining the degree of comfort with dementia, as measured by a simplified version of the Dementia Attitudes Scale (DAS) focused on observable behaviors in children by their parents - aiming to understand the extent of stigmatization of dementia in communities served by this program, and if the trial impacted evidence of stigma. 3. Enrolling up to 75 parents who primarily spoke Spanish who were originally contacted in the RCT but were not eligible for completion of the original round of surveys given that all study materials were in English. This approach aims to better understand the impact of the program and Alzheimer disease on these families. Hypothesis 1: For the delayed follow-up with parents, the investigator anticipates that those with high dementia literacy or the largest dementia literacy improvement would sustain knowledge over 15-month period. Hypothesis 2: Children who received the intervention arm of the trial, who also have regular contact with a close friend or family member with dementia, will demonstrate positive dementia attitudes relative to students in the control arm. Hypothesis 3: Semi-structured interviews with Spanish speaking families will help program capacity to better serve the population and improve involvement in AD care and research.

The goal of this interventional study is to learn if having 15 minutes of surgery related nutrition education changes the food choices participants make during the time right before and after a spine surgery in participants who have a surgery with Dr. John Edwards. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does nutrition education at a participant's preoperative appointment help them choose healthier foods and drinks that help their recovery from surgery? * Does choosing to drink some extra nutrients before and after surgery help participants feel better and make it easier to have other foods and liquids after surgery? Researchers will compare participants getting extra education with those in a control group who have normal instructions from the clinic to see if extra education makes a difference in people's food choices. Researchers will also look at how well participants do with the extra nutrition they get before and after surgery, and if choosing to include it changes with the extra education. Participants will: * Complete 2 surveys (PROMIS global and food frequency) at both their preoperative and postoperative appointments * Complete one survey 2 days after their surgery asking about how well they did with liquids and solid foods in the 24 hours after surgery * Choose whether or not they decide to have a drink with extra nutrients before and after surgery, and let the researchers know what they chose.

This randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate the effects of consuming two different doses of pulses (1.5 cups/week or 3 cups/week) in individuals with baseline intake below 1.5 cups/week, compared to a control group receiving standard nutrition education based on the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) My Plate guidelines. The main question the Pulses study aims to answer is: • What is the effect of increasing pulse consumption (in a dose-response manner) on specific cardiometabolic risk factors, including LDL-C, CRP, HBA1C, and blood pressure compared to standard nutrition education? For secondary outcomes, this study aims to answer the following: • Does increased pulse consumption improve the following: overall serum lipid profile (Total cholesterol (TC), HDL-C, Triglycerides (TG), diet quality (measured by the Healthy Eating Index), and participants self-reported satisfaction with life (SWLS) and Satisfaction with Food-related Life (SWFoL). All participants will attend biweekly classes and food demonstrations. The pulses groups will learn to prepare various pulse-based recipes, while the control group will receive guidance on preparing healthy meals following the USDA MyPlate recommendations.

Many studies have consistently shown that females across sports under consume carbohydrate. Registered dietitians working with athletes have also reported female athletes chronically under consume carbohydrate. The primary objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of education versus education plus interpreted individual metabolic (exercise) testing results to change attitudes and beliefs of female athletes regarding carbohydrate intake. The secondary objective is to assess the effectiveness of the education alone on attitudes and beliefs towards consuming carbohydrate in female athletes. The study hypothesis is that education alone will not significantly impact attitudes and beliefs, and that metabolic testing and the interpretation of the individual results will alter attitudes and beliefs toward carbohydrate intake.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Nutrition Education clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Nutrition Education clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Nutrition Education trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Nutrition Education is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Nutrition Education medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Nutrition Education clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Pulses for Heart Health, CHEF-ED Program for Nutrition Education and Culinary Nutrition Education for Cardiometabolic Risk Factors to the Power online platform.
