ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
This study aimed to explore predictors associated with intermediate (six months) and post-intervention (24 months) increases in daily steps among people with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes participating in a two-year pedometer intervention.METHODS:
A secondary analysis was conducted based on data from people with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes from two intervention arms of the randomised controlled trial Sophia Step Study. Daily steps were measured with an ActiGraph GT1M accelerometer. Participants were divided into two groups based on their response to the intervention Group 1) ≥ 500 increase in daily steps or Group 2) a decrease or < 500 increase in daily steps. Data from baseline and from six- and 24-month follow-ups were used for analysis. The response groups were used as outcomes in a multiple logistic regression together with baseline predictors including self-efficacy, social support, health-related variables, intervention group, demographics and steps at baseline. Predictors were included in the regression if they had a p-value < 0.2 from bivariate analyses.RESULTS:
In total, 83 participants were included. The mean ± SD age was 65.2 ± 6.8 years and 33% were female. At six months, a lower number of steps at baseline was a significant predictor for increasing ≥ 500 steps per day (OR = 0.82, 95% CI 0.69-0.98). At 24 months, women had 79% lower odds of increasing ≥ 500 steps per day (OR = 0.21, 95% CI 0.05-0.88), compared to men. For every year of increase in age, the odds of increasing ≥ 500 steps per day decreased by 13% (OR = 0.87, 95% CI 0.78-0.97). Also, for every step increase in baseline self-efficacy, measured with the Self-Efficacy for Exercise Scale, the odds of increasing ≥ 500 steps per day increased by 14% (OR = 1.14, 95% CI 1.02-1.27).CONCLUSIONS:
In the Sophia Step Study pedometer intervention, participants with a lower number of steps at baseline, male gender, lower age or higher baseline self-efficacy were more likely to respond to the intervention with a step increase above 500 steps per day. More knowledge is needed about factors that influence response to pedometer interventions. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02374788.Palabras clave
