Summary

This trial looks at how a 12-week lifestyle program affects diabetes-related risk factors in black adolescent girls who are at risk for type 2 diabetes.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for Black adolescent girls aged 12-18 with obesity, at risk for type 2 diabetes, and their caregivers. Girls must not be on metabolism-affecting meds or have conditions impacting metabolism or cognitive function. They also shouldn't be pregnant/postpartum recently, in a weight program recently, have communication issues due to developmental conditions, have type 2 diabetes already, or had bariatric surgery.
What is being tested?
The study tests a telehealth lifestyle program tailored for Black adolescent girls at risk of developing type 2 diabetes. It involves the participants and their caregivers over a period of 12 weeks to observe changes in diabetes-related risk factors.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this is a lifestyle intervention rather than medication-based treatment, typical drug side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience stress or discomfort from new diet/exercise routines.
