Summary

The goal of this cluster randomized clinical trial is to learn if an AI-enabled blended care model (the BRIDGE program) works to treat type 2 diabetes in adults. It will also learn about the cost-effectiveness and implementation feasibility of this model in primary care settings. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does the AI-driven intervention lower HbA1c levels (blood sugar) compared to standard care?

Does this model improve participants' quality of life, self-management behaviors, and digital literacy?

Researchers will compare the "Diet-Medicine Companion" (Shi Yi Ban Lv) mini-program combined with family doctor support to standard community care to see if the blended care model works to manage diabetes.

Participants will:

Use the "Diet-Medicine Companion" mini-program to upload diet photos daily and receive AI feedback for 6 months

Receive periodic guidance and phone reminders from case administrators (family doctors)

Complete questionnaires and blood tests (HbA1c) at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months

DEVICE

AI-driven Dietary Management and Human-in-the-loop Support

The intervention consists of a 6-month AI-enabled blended care program using the "Diet-Medicine Companion" (Shi Yi Ban Lv) WeChat mini-program. Patient Component (AI Support): Participants are required to upload dietary photos and blood glucose records via the mini-program at least once daily. The system, powered by a Large Language Model (LLM), provides immediate, personalized dietary feedback and answers diabetes-related queries via an AI chatbot. Provider Component (Human Support): Case administrators (family doctors) monitor patient data through a provider dashboard. The protocol involves "human-in-the-loop" support, where doctors provide telephone reminders if participants are inactive (no uploads) for more than 7 days. Doctors also intervene to provide medical guidance or health education based on specific system alerts or patient needs.
