Filter by:The hypothesis for this study is that some individuals may be at much higher risk to develop type 2 diabetes and that the individual diabetes risk will be predicted by the individual level of slow wave sleep activity (SWA).
This study will examine the relationship between the amount of slow wave sleep (deep sleep) and the ability of the body to bring the blood sugar level to a normal range after receiving glucose.
The investigators hypothesize that different types of starch vary in their effects on appetite, blood sugar and food intake. In this study, subjects consumed five soups containing 50 g of whole grain, high amylose corn, regular corn or maltodextrin starches or no added starch at one week intervals. The investigators measured food intake at 120 minutes, appetite and blood sugar.
The objective of this study was to describe relationships among whey protein when consumed before a meal on food intake and pre- and post-meal satiety, blood glucose in healthy young adults.
The purpose of this study is to describe relationships among whey protein and its hydrolysate when consumed before a meal on pre- and post-fixed meal satiety, blood glucose and insulin in healthy young adults.
The purpose of this study is to help Internet users to adopt and maintain a healthy lifestyle, it is imperative to increase self-management competencies to improve healthy eating and regular physical activity. Aim of this research project is to evaluate an evidence- and theory-based computerized expert system in comparison to a standard program. In addition, two different tailoring criteria are compared to each other with regard to the misclassification of study participants. Internet users will be treated psychologically and followed up over 12 weeks. The computerized expert system is expected to help users better than the standard program. Both interventions are hypothesized to improve self-management competencies over time.
The purpose of this study is to determine if subthreshold vibration, when applied to the residual limb of a lower limb amputee through their prosthetic socket, can sufficiently enhance peripheral sensation to result in an improved ability to balance and walk.
Amputee gait produces periodic occlusion of residual limb blood vessels. During the stance phase of gait, body weight cause the prosthesis to compresses the soft tissue of the residual limb and occlude blood flow. This occlusion can be relieved during swing phase, but may depend on type of prosthesis. The purpose of the proposed research is to: (1) discover the range of tissue oxygenation in the intact and residual lower limbs of dysvascular amputees during gait and (2) to learn which of five different prosthetic limb systems provides greater tissue oxygenation.
The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that the HumaPen Memoir with memory function, when used over 24 weeks for prandial insulin injections achieves superior glycemic control, when compared to the conventional HumaPen Luxura without memory function.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of a new blood glucose meter in the hands of children, teens, young adults.
