Effect of Type 2 Diabetes Genetic Risk Information on Health Behaviors and Outcomes
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
In brief
The primary objective of the study is to assess the clinical utility of a genetic test for Type 2 diabetes risk in combination with standardized risk assessment compared with standardized risk assessment alone, and to measure whether changes in perceived risk following genetic testing for Type 2 diabetes risk are correlated with behavior change and increased concern about risk for Type 2 diabetes.
