Filter by:Sleep is an important health behavior for children and adolescents due to the impact it has on both mental and physical development. Although sleep is considered a resting period, it is also a period when the brain work to encode and consolidate memories into more stable representations for long term recall . Unfortunately, pediatric sleep disorders affect 25 - 40% of youth and several studies showed that children with chronic illness experience more problems with initiating and maintaining sleep than their non- chronically ill children . Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) affects the quality of sleep in children and adolescents as well as their caregivers. Sleep disturbances in patients with T1DM may negatively impact their ability to manage their diabetes .
The goal of this observational study is to assess if diabetes and obesity are independently related to functional and structural muscle deficits, and how muscular deficits relate to metabolic properties of diabetes and obesity. All studies will include clinical muscle strength and contractile examinations, functional tests, and MR imaging and spectroscopy techniques. The main questions this project aims to answer are: 1. Is chronic hyperglycemia in type 1 and 2 diabetes associated with functional and structural deficits of skeletal muscles unrelated to the presence of neuropathy? 2. Is obesity associated with functional and structural impairments of skeletal muscles unrelated to the presence of type 2 diabetes ? 3. Does weight loss improve muscle metabolic flexibility and economy and modify skeletal muscle function and structure in obese subjects with and without type 2 diabetes? The project will include three studies, intended to answer the hypotheses listed above: Study 1: Evaluation of functional and structural muscular deficits of diabetic myopathy in relation to prolonged hyperglycemia prior to and 6 months following glycemic improvement in patients with type 1 and 2 diabetes Study 2: Functional and structural muscular deficits in severely obese subjects with and without type 2 diabetes prior to assisted weight loss. Study 3: Changes in functional and structural muscle properties following assisted weight loss in severely obese subjects with and without type 2 diabetes - a 1-year follow-up study.
The aim of this study is to investigate if diabetes, obesity and metabolic syndrome affects disease presentation and severity of malaria in adults in a hospital setting in Cameroon.
Black ethnicity is a major risk factor for chronic kidney disease [CKD] in people with HIV infection, suggesting that genetic factors are an important determinant of kidney disease progression in this population. The Gen-Africa study was established in 2018 to allow the study of genetic and clinical risk factors for CKD in people with HIV in the UK. Just over 3000 people across 15 sites were enrolled between May 2018 and January 2020. Demographic and clinical information was collected, and biological samples (buffy coats, plasma and urine) obtained. Cross-sectional analyses have revealed that participants of West-African ancestry are at higher risk of CKD and end-stage kidney disease [ESKD], and that genetic variants in the apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) gene and sickle cell trait (SCT) are predictors of CKD and ESKD. The pathogenesis of APOL1- and SCT-associated CKD is incompletely understood, and additional, longitudinal data will be collected to improve understanding of the contribution of demographic, traditional CKD (diabetes, hypertension, obesity/metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease) and HIV (immuno-virological and hepatitis B/C co-infection status, antiretroviral medications) risk factors as well as additional genetic and epigenetic markers.
A 2-arm randomized Phase II Open Label Study to evaluate the safety and feasibility of intralymphatic administration of Diamyd® (Diamyd) in individuals at risk of Type 1 diabetes carrying the HLA DR3-DQ2 haplotype.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare a healthy KETO diet supplemented with canola oil (KETO-Can) compared to a traditional KETO diet high in saturated fat (KETO-Sat) and low-fat diet (LFD) in adults at high risk of or diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Effects on CVD risk factors (plasma cholesterol, TG, ApoB100, glucose, insulin and HbA1C). - Effects on systemic inflammation and immune function. - Safety and adherence to interventions. Participants will be randomized into 1 of the dietary treatments during which they will follow a Keto or a low-fat diet. Comparisons among groups at 3 and 6 months of intervention will be conducted.
In this study, the effect of nurse-led empowerment training given to patients with Type 2 Diabetes on clinical findings and empowerment behaviors will be investigated.
The overall aim of the study is to observe the change of long-term metabolic control in patients with type 2 diabetes who have access to a digital intervention tool as compared with randomized controls during one year. The tool is based on self-affirmation theory and has large emphasis on self-reflection to enable sustainable lifestyle changes. .
The investigators will carry out a proof-of-concept study in 20 adult healthy male and female volunteers in order to: assess a 3D foot scanner's reliability. Specifically, the investigators will assess its variability during repeated foot scans of the same subject's foot. Three repeated foot scans will be carried out by two different examiners to measure intrarater and interrater reliability (Intraclass Correlation Coefficient
The goal of this project is to provide diabetes self-management education and support (DSMES) and simultaneously address food insecurity for a high-risk, ethnically diverse adult population who participate in a food pantry. This project will utilize a Community-Based Participatory Research model (CBPR). Community representatives will engage in project implementation by participating in designing the messaging for cultural impact and advising in study operations. This intervention targets food pantry clients self-reporting a T2DM diagnosis or who screen positive for T2DM through on-site HbA1c testing. Once enrolled, participants will complete self-paced web-based/mobile DSMES modules, available in English and Spanish, that include the ADCES7 (Association of Diabetes Care and Education Specialists) Self-Care BehaviorsTM. Support through text messaging, monthly group sessions, and peer mentorship will be facilitated by nursing students, registered dietitian nutritionists (RDNs), and diabetes care and education specialists (DCES) for 12 weeks. Participants will receive nutritious food from the pantry consistent with dietary guidelines for diabetes.
