                <text>Data is still being collected, but a couple individuals successfully completed all 16 weeks of the program as well as the pre and post balance screener. Each individual lost weight over the 16 weeks and saw improvements in their equilibrium score. Even with this information though, it is still too early to tell whether or not results are clinically significant. As data continues to be collected, the hope is to see a direct connection with diabetes prevention education and improved overall balance. &#13;
&#13;
Currently, audiologists are not a part of the CDC's medical team for diabetes management. However, with the obvious impacts that diabetes has on hearing and balance, incorporating an audiologist into treatment and prevention plans for prediabetic and type 2 diabetic patients would address systems of the body that have been previously overlooked. In conjunction with diabetes prevention strategies and education, audiologists could provide essential data for patient progress. </text>

                <text>In order to be eligible to participate in the research study, participants had to be enrolled in the full 16 weeks of the DPP. A participant's overall balance system was assessed through computerized dynamic posturography (CDP). &#13;
&#13;
CDP is a versatile piece of balance equipment that can be used for diagnostic and rehabilitative purposes. In the CDP, there are multiple assessments, but for the research study the sensory organization test (SOT) was used. &#13;
&#13;
The SOT looks at all aspects of balance: vision, somatosensory system, which includes the legs and feet, and also the vestibular system, which is the inner ear. A participant will go through 6 different conditions that assess these three systems: &#13;
- Condition 1: The person stands with eyes open, visual field and floor do not move. &#13;
- Condition 2: The person stands with eyes closed. &#13;
- Condition 3: The person stands with eyes open, the floor does not move, but the visual field moves. &#13;
- Condition 4: The person stands with eyes open, the visual field does not move this time, but the floor moves. &#13;
- Condition 5: The person stands with eyes closed and the floor moves. &#13;
- Condition 6: The person stands with eyes open, the visual field and the floor move. &#13;
&#13;
Depending on the condition, certain systems might be taken away, so that one system is isolated to assess if the participant is using that system appropriately. For example, in condition 5: the participant closes their eyes, so vision is taken away, the floor also moves, so a firm surface is taken away from the participant, so that the participant cannot rely on their somatosensory system, which means this condition leaves the vestibular system to analyze. Is the patient able to maintain their balance? If so, our vestibular system seems to be working appropriately, if not then we may have some problems with this system. &#13;
&#13;
This test generates an overall equilibrium score in comparison to same-aged and same height peers. Therefore, an equilibrium score as calculated at the beginning and end of the 16 weeks. </text>

                <text>The research study focused on looking at prediabetic individuals enrolled in the CDC’s Diabetes Prevention Program, or DPP for short, and each participant's overall balance was assessed at the beginning and end of the course. &#13;
&#13;
The course is split up into two halves: part 1 is 16 weeks and part 2 is 6 months, thus resulting in a one year-long program. Participants meet once a week for the first part and once a month for the second part. In part 1, participants are given goals of 150 minutes of activity each week, and to lose 5-7% of their starting weight by week 16. Topics on exercising, eating healthy, stress management, and goal setting are just a few areas that participants focus on throughout the duration of the program. &#13;
&#13;
Keith and Natalie, the two audiology students overseeing the project, became certified lifestyle coaches in order to facilitate these programs. Also, graduate students from other disciplines like exercise science, nutrition and dietetics, counseling psychology, and social work also became lifestyle coaches. In addition to coaching weekly, we held meetings regularly with all of the coaches to not only help jumpstart the program at Ball State again, but also we worked together to manage the best care that we could provide to our participants in order to help them achieve their goals. &#13;

                  <text>Abstract: The goal of this project is to highlight the role of audiologists as a part of diabetes prevention education. Through a team-based approach, the CDC’s nationally-recognized Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) was offered to interested participants for 16 weeks. The sensory organization test (SOT) was administered to participants at the beginning and end of the program. Any data collected suggesting that participants using the DPP to improve their overall health and health beliefs will also improve their balance would indicate that audiologists can be considered facilitators of this program and work regularly with prediabetic and diabetic patients.&#13;

                <text>Prediabetes, a condition that precedes type 2 diabetes, occurs when someone has high blood sugar levels, but the levels are not high enough to be considered diabetes yet. It is estimated that 88 million individuals in the United States have prediabetes and 90% of those individuals do not even know they have it, according to the CDC. &#13;

&#13;
For those who may not know, there is a strong connection between type 2 diabetes and hearing loss/balance difficulties. What is unknown is whether or not prediabetes can affect these two systems. Could difficulties with hearing and balance be reversed, since diabetes can also be reversed when an individual makes healthy lifestyle choices? These are just a few questions that we had before beginning our research.&#13;
