Trial Outcomes & Findings for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension for Diabetes (NCT NCT04286555)
NCT ID: NCT04286555
Last Updated: 2026-05-13
Results Overview
After the participant has rested quietly in the seated position for at least 5 minutes, blood pressure will be measured in triplicate, using an Omron device, with each reading separated by 30 seconds, and the average of the three readings (in mmHg) will also be recorded. Blood pressure will be measured on five separate occasions during the last 2 weeks of the feeding period, and the mean systolic blood pressure from these five blood pressures (15 total readings) will be used as the primary outcome.

Participant Flow
The DASH4D trial recruited participants from June 2021 to December 2023, primarily through mass mailings of brochures, letters to prior participants, newspaper ads, and word of mouth. Prior to enrollment, participants completed a prescreening telephone interview, 3 in-person screening visits, and a run-in period to determine eligibility for the trial prior to randomization. The study was conducted at a single-site community-based research center.
105 participants were randomized to 1 of 24 possible sequences of the 4 study diets in random order (i.e., within-subjects crossover). However, 2 participants never started any study diets and 1 started the first diet but withdrew before any outcome assessments and were excluded from the analytic population (n=102). All participants were invited to the concurrent CGM Ancillary Study, but 3 did not consent, 8 changed their mind before outcome assessment, and 2 had contraindications (CGM n=89).

DASH4D Trial Analytic Population
Participants were randomized to one of 24 possible sequences of the four study diets, in random order, in this within-subjects crossover trial. The four diets were:
1. DASH4D diet with lower sodium (DL diet)
2. DASH4D diet with higher sodium (DH diet)
3. Comparison diet with lower sodium (CL diet)
4. Comparison diet with higher sodium (CH diet)
The DASH4D diet is a DASH-style dietary pattern, modified for people with diabetes. DASH stands for "Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension". The DASH diet is a healthy dieter that emphasizes fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy products; includes whole grains, poultry, fish, and nuts; and is reduced in red meat, sweets, and sugar-containing beverages. The DASH diet lowers blood pressure. The DASH4D dietary pattern is a version of the DASH diet that is lower in carbohydrates.
The comparison diet is a dietary pattern that is typical of what many Americans with diabetes eat. It is based on macronutrient distributions generally at the average of typical US intake, and micronutrient targets generally near the 25th percentile of usual US intake (with the exception of sodium).
Lower sodium level: 1500 mg/day (at the 2000 kilocalorie level).
Higher sodium level: 3700 mg/day (at the 2000 kilocalorie level).

Participants will stand with their arm rested on an adjacent Mayo table at 70-80 degrees from their torso, and participants will then undergo another set of triplicate blood pressure measurements, separated by 30 seconds each. The average of these three readings will be used as the standing blood pressure. Presence of orthostatic hypotension will be defined as ≥ 20 mmHg drop in systolic blood pressure or a ≥ 10 mmHg drop in diastolic blood pressure upon standing.

Timeframe: At the end of 5-week feeding periodPopulation: The analysis population for the CGM ancillary study outcomes was the 89 participants from the main trial's analytic population who completed at least one CGM outcome assessment wear period.
CGM Ancillary Study Secondary Outcome: Continuous glucose monitoring sensors will be worn up to 14 days during each 5-week feeding period in participants included in the DASH4D-CGM ancillary study. The standard deviation of glucose measurements (in mg/dL) will be used as a secondary outcome of the corresponding feeding period.

DASH4D Diet With Lower Sodium
n=89 Participants
DASH-style dietary pattern, modified for people with diabetes, with sodium level of 1500 mg/day
DASH4D diet: DASH stands for "Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension". The DASH diet is a healthy dieter that lowers blood pressure. The DASH diet emphasizes fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy products; includes whole grains, poultry, fish, and nuts; and is reduced in red meat, sweets, and sugar-containing beverages. The DASH4D dietary pattern is a version of the DASH diet that is lower in carbohydrate.
