On April 21, 2023, the selection of participants in the clinical trial of the Diabfrail Latam project concluded.

Thanks to the work of the Latin American partners from Colombia, Peru, Chile and Mexico, we finally have a total of 712 participating subjects.

We think that this figure will be enough to achieve the objectives of the study with sufficient statistical power and that we will be able to draw solid conclusions that will allow us to scale consistently.

In this way, we can say that the results of the project will truly and reliably reflect the benefits that the proposed multimodal intervention (food, exercises, education, etc.) has on the participating older people.

In Colombia, the first participants are already finishing the follow-up. Specifically, on April 26, 2 participants finished and on April 28, the third finished.

Pending the first results of the study, we share the situation of the different countries in terms of number of participating subjects:

Colombia: 356 subjects
Peru: 104
Chile-Requinoa: 202
Mexico (Tijuana) :40
Mexico (San Luis Potosí): 10
Total: 712 subjects
