“…Our findings suggest that perceived risk is not associated with actual risk including BMI, physical activity, diet, and history of gestational diabetes. This echoes the findings of studies of women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus including American women and Dutch people [11,31,34] [35]. Perhaps our participants’ lack of knowledge on the risks associated with T2DM and time to focus on their own health explains this finding.…”

“…In another study, negative screening tests did not falsely reassure individuals at high risk for developing diabetes, whose intentions for behavioral change were essentially the same for negative results recipients and the control group [ 20 ]. A complementary study showed that four years after follow-up, screening negative for diabetes did not lead to long-term changes in lifestyle [ 21 ]. Though there are limitations as to the extent of parallels that can be drawn between these studies and genomic screening, these studies are examples of settings that may provide insights into the communication of a negative genomic screening results that may aid future research.…”

“…A previous study by Paddison et al has shown that a negative screening result does not lower participants’ intentions to reduce dietary fat and sugar intake and to increase physical activity after first appointment or at 3–6 months or 12–15 months [23]. Willems et al found that neither a negative screening test for diabetes nor non-invitation to a screening test made any difference to overt changes towards a healthier lifestyle at 4 years follow-up [24]. Our study found that screening for diabetes brought long-term positive lifestyle change in both -in the pre-diabetes and normoglycaemia groups equally.…”
