Safe management of people with Type 1 diabetes and EAting Disorders studY (STEADY) is a complex intervention for people with type 1 diabetes and mild-to-moderate disordered eating (T1DE) integrating cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) with diabetes education. Aim was to test feasibility of STEADY in a randomised controlled trial.
Feasibility parallel-group, randomised (blocks of four) controlled open-label trial (RCT) of STEADY against usual care (Control) at King's College London, UK. Participants were referred by clinicians or self-referred via social media advertisements. Forty adults with T1DE (Hba1c < 15%, body mass index 15-35 kg/m, age ≥ 18 years) were randomised. STEADY was delivered in 12 sessions by a CBT-trained Diabetes Specialist Nurse through video-conferencing and mobile app. Main outcome at 6 months post-randomisation was feasibility. Baseline mental health data (Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-5, SCID-5RV), and secondary biomedical outcomes (HbA1c; glucose time in range; TIR) and person-reported outcome measures (PROM: Diabetes Eating Problems Survey-Revised, DEPS-R; Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire Short, EDE-QS; Type 1 Diabetes Distress Scale, T1DDS; Generalised Anxiety Disorder Assessment, GAD-7; Patient Health Questionnaire, PHQ-9; Impact of Diabetes Profile, DIDP) were collected. Analyses were conducted as intention-to-treat. ClinicalTrials.govNCT05140564.
Of the 98 screened, 40 participants with T1DE were randomised (recruitment rate: 40.81%; 95% CI: 31.60%, 50.72%): 38 women, 1 man, 1 trans man (37 White, 1 White/Asian, 1 Black; 39 ± 11 years old, diabetes duration 22 ± 15 years, HbA1c 9.1 ± 2.6%). The drop-out rate was 3/20 = 15% (4.39%, 36.55%) in STEADY and 2/20 = 10% (1.57%, 31.32%) in Control. STEADY reported lower GAD-7 (5.75 ± 2.89 vs 10.18 ± 5.31, p = 0.0060) and higher DIDP (3.13 ± 0.63 vs 2.46 ± 0.87, p = 0.020) at follow-up compared with Control, indicating lower anxiety and higher diabetes-specific quality-of-life. Compared to baseline, STEADY improved in DEPS-R, EDE-QS, GAD-7, PHQ-9 and T1DDS.
The STEADY-feasibility RCT demonstrated proof-of-concept for feasibility and mental health improvements in T1DE without deteriorating glycaemic control. A full scale RCT of STEADY will test effectiveness and implementation.

1型糖尿病与饮食失调患者安全管理研究(STEADY)是一项针对1型糖尿病和轻度至中度饮食失调(T1DE)患者的综合干预措施,将认知行为疗法(CBT)与糖尿病教育相结合。目的是在一项随机对照试验中检验STEADY的可行性。
在英国伦敦国王学院进行了一项STEADY与常规护理(对照)对比的可行性平行组随机(每组4例)对照开放标签试验(RCT)。参与者由临床医生转诊或通过社交媒体广告自荐。40名T1DE成人患者(糖化血红蛋白<15%,体重指数15 - 35kg/m²,年龄≥18岁)被随机分组。由经过CBT培训的糖尿病专科护士通过视频会议和移动应用程序进行12次STEADY干预。随机分组后6个月的主要结局是可行性。收集了基线心理健康数据(DSM - 5结构化临床访谈,SCID - 5RV)、次要生物医学结局(糖化血红蛋白;血糖达标时间;血糖达标率)和患者报告结局指标(PROM:糖尿病饮食问题调查修订版,DEPS - R;饮食失调检查表简版,EDE - QS;1型糖尿病困扰量表,T1DDS;广泛性焦虑症评估量表,GAD - 7;患者健康问卷,PHQ - 9;糖尿病影响量表,DIDP)。分析采用意向性分析。ClinicalTrials.gov注册号:NCT05140564。
在98名筛查对象中,40名T1DE参与者被随机分组(招募率:40.81%;95%置信区间:31.60%,50.72%):38名女性,1名男性,1名跨性别男性(37名白人,1名白人/亚洲人,1名黑人;年龄39±11岁,糖尿病病程22±15年,糖化血红蛋白9.1±2.6%)。STEADY组的脱落率为3/20 = 15%(4.39%,36.55%),对照组为2/20 = 10%(1.57%,31.32%)。与对照组相比,随访时STEADY组的GAD - 7得分更低(5.75±2.89 vs 10.18±5.31,p = 0.0060),DIDP得分更高(3.13±0.63 vs 2.46±0.87,p = 0.020),表明焦虑程度更低,糖尿病特异性生活质量更高。与基线相比,STEADY组在DEPS - R、EDE - QS、GAD - 7、PHQ - 9和T1DDS方面有所改善。
STEADY可行性RCT证明了在不恶化血糖控制的情况下,T1DE患者实施STEADY干预具有可行性且能改善心理健康。STEADY的全面RCT将检验其有效性和实施情况。
