The current work aimed to identify the socio-demographic characteristics and body weight perceptions of participants who benefitted the most, achieving at least a 5% reduction in body weight, waist circumference and glycaemic indices (fasting plasma glucose, insulin, glycosylated haemoglobin levels), over two-year period. Following a two-stage screening procedure, 2294 high-risk parents were randomly allocated to standard care or more intensive intervention. The participants who benefitted most were living in Southern (OR 2.39–3.67, p < 0.001) and Eastern Europe (OR 1.55–2.47, p < 0.05), received more intensive intervention (OR 1.53–1.90, p = 0.002) and were younger (<40 years old) adults (OR 1.48–1.51, p < 0.05). Furthermore, individuals with tertiary education (OR 2.06, p < 0.001), who were unemployed (OR 1.62–1.68, p < 0.05) and perceived their body weight to be higher than normal (OR 1.58–3.00, p < 0.05) were more likely to benefit from the program. Lastly, males were more likely to show improvements in their glycaemic profiles compared to females (OR 1.40, p = 0.024). These findings point out the regions in Europe and the sociodemographic profile of individuals that benefitted the most in the current study, highlighting the need to prioritise regions in greater need for such interventions and also tailor future interventions to the characteristics and perceptions of the target populations. 000096135 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/643708/EU/Developing and implementing a community-based intervention to create a more supportive social and physical environment for lifestyle changes to prevent diabetes in vulnerable families across Europe/Feel4Diabetes$$9This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No H2020 643708-Feel4Diabetes 000096135 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 000096135 590__ $$a5.717$$b2020 000096135 591__ $$aNUTRITION & DIETETICS$$b17 / 88 = 0.193$$c2020$$dQ1$$eT1 000096135 592__ $$a1.417$$b2020 000096135 593__ $$aNutrition and Dietetics$$c2020$$dQ1 000096135 593__ $$aFood Science$$c2020$$dQ1 000096135 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000096135 700__ $$aKaratzi, K. 000096135 700__ $$aApergi, K. 000096135 700__ $$aLiatis, S. 000096135 700__ $$aKivelä, J. 000096135 700__ $$aWikström, K. 000096135 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0001-8914-0752$$aAyala-Marín, A.M. 000096135 700__ $$aMateo-Gallego, R. 000096135 700__ $$aTsochev, K. 000096135 700__ $$aChakarova, N. 000096135 700__ $$aAntal, E. 000096135 700__ $$aRurik, I. 000096135 700__ $$aIotova, V. 000096135 700__ $$aCardon, G. 000096135 700__ $$aLindstrom, J. 000096135 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0003-0454-653X$$aMoreno, L.A.$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000096135 700__ $$aMakrilakis, K. 000096135 700__ $$aManios, Y. 000096135 7102_ $$11006$$2255$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
