Community Intervention for Heart Disease Risk in Young American Indians

This study is looking at ways to improve heart health in young American Indians (ages 18-39) in southwestern Oklahoma. American Indians are at a higher risk for heart disease, often linked to high levels of fat (lipids) and sugar (glucose) in their blood. This study will explore two approaches: "Guided Management" and "Self-Management." Researchers want to see if these interventions can help lower lipid and glucose levels, which are important for preventing heart disease later in life. The study plans to enroll 360 participants and is currently in an unclear status regarding recruitment.

Study design
This interventional study plans to enroll 360 participants. It will compare two approaches: Guided Management and Self-Management.
What's involved
Participants will be asked to modify their current nutritional intake and participate in proposed physical activity. Blood samples will be taken from young community members.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Lipid and glucose levels will be measured at 9 and 18 months.
