Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Provide integrated health information via mobile text messaging method to people with type 2 diabetes mellitus for 12 months
- text messages content: strategies for glycaemic control, prevention of developing diabetes complications
- text messages delivers as text
- text messages will be sent 4 times a week for the initial 3 months of the study, then it will reduce to 3 times a week for the next 6 months and will further reduce to twice and once a week for the remaining 3 months
- text messages was prepared and reviewed by endocrinologist, GP, dietitian, diabetes educator, nurse specialing in diabetes, clinial physiotherapist and research staff.
- strategies used to monitor adherence to the interventio: study specific questinnaire asking participants if they read the text messages

example 1
Dear participants, we understand eating out is an important part of your lives and meets your social needs. However, sometimes it can be challenging to remain eat healthy when dining out.

example 2

example 3
Dear participant, type 2 diabetes is the most common diabetes where there is too much glucose in the blood. When you eat food that contain carbohydrates e.g. bread, rice, fruit, the glucose or sugar can only enter the body’s cell when the ‘doors’ are opened by enough insulin (a hormone produced by your pancreas). Unfortunately, due to your condition, your insulin’s level has been reduced or not working well, so it takes longer for carbohydrate foods become energy to meet your body’s needs, just like your car needs petrol. So the glucose stays in the blood longer which results in high blood glucose levels.

Summary
Brief summary
The purposes of this study is to
1. Determine if integrated health mobile text messages (unidirectional), including medical, diet, exercises, and psychological support follow-up people with Type 2 diabetes for 12 months, can improve their glycaemic control at 6 and 12 months.
2. Determine if participants’ lipid profiles, blood pressure, and weight status (BMI) can also be improved at 6 and 12 months
We hypothesize that there will be improved HbA1c, lipid profiles, blood pressure, and weight status (BMI) in 6 months and a further improvement in 12 months; there will be a high acceptance rate or high satisfaction levels about this research from participants.
