Progress 10/01/10 to 09/30/11
Outputs
OUTPUTS: Appropriate IRB approval has been obtained. Heel ultrasound measures in patients with type 2 diabetes has occurred. Recruitment has been completed, although short of the number needed to support significant findings with adequate power and medium effect size. PARTICIPANTS: One graduate student trained during this project. Collaborators are area hospitals, Illinois Extension education sites, and public health facilities. TARGET AUDIENCES: Target audiences are men and women with type 2 diabetes. PROJECT MODIFICATIONS: Nothing significant to report during this reporting period.
Impacts
Heel ultrasound assessment of bone density resulted in finding that t scores values ranged from -4.00 to 2.23; approximately 44.2% had low t-scores (below -1.0). Bone mineral density (BMD) as measured by heel ultrasound was significantly lower in those with a history of cancer than in those without such history (p=0.037). Age had a significant association with BMD (r= -.57, p<.0001).

Progress 01/01/10 to 12/31/10
Outputs
OUTPUTS: All subjects have been recruited and data collected including heel ultrasounds, surveys, and DNA analyses. PARTICIPANTS: Dr. Chapman-Novakofski (PI), and two graduate students worked on the project with collaborator Dr. Teran-Garcia. TARGET AUDIENCES: The target audience was adults with diabetes. PROJECT MODIFICATIONS: Not relevant to this project.
Impacts
New data are being analyzed so no outcomes or impacts are as of yet reportable.

Progress 01/01/09 to 12/31/09
Outputs
OUTPUTS: The project added a componenet of DNA analysis and was approved by IRB. Recruitment went through 2 phases with half of desired participants recruited. These participants completed the protocol and their data were entered into an SPSS database. PARTICIPANTS: Nothing significant to report during this reporting period. TARGET AUDIENCES: Not relevant to this project. PROJECT MODIFICATIONS: The project was modified to include DNA markers for osteoporosis and diabetes.
Impacts
The results are not analyzed since only a few of the required subject number have been recuited. The remaining subjects will be recruited this Spring.

Progress 01/01/08 to 12/31/08
Outputs
OUTPUTS: Results have been shared with the dietetic internship preceptors. The process has been shared with Illinois Extension, Illinois Department of Public Health facilities, and academic staff at the University. PARTICIPANTS: Two graduate students have worked on this project and Extension Educators have facilitated participant recruitment. Champaign County Public Health Department personnel also facilitated recruitment. Graduate students were trained on heel ultrasound and data analyses. TARGET AUDIENCES: Adults with type 2 diabetes. PROJECT MODIFICATIONS: Nothing significant to report during this reporting period.
Impacts
Data is still being collected and analyzed. Additional groups are interested in participating as subjects. Using Extension diabetes programs to recruit has not been as successful as anticipated because of travel difficulties and cost.
