NCT ID: NCT02237079 Completed - Obesity Clinical Trials

Bazedoxifene/Conjugated Estrogens (BZA/CE) Improvement of Metabolism (BIM)

BIM
Start date: December 2014
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this pilot clinical study is to perform a randomized placebo-controlled study to assess the beneficial effect of a 3 month-treatment with Bazedoxifene/Conjugated Estrogens (BZA/CE) vs. placebo on glucose homeostasis and body composition in 20 post-menopausal women. The recruitment will be performed at Tulane Health Sciences Center.

NCT ID: NCT02031497 Completed - Glucose Homeostasis Clinical Trials

Comparison of the Effects of a 12-Week Consumption of Two Carbonated Beverages on Insulin Sensitivity

SEDULC
Start date: October 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether consumption of carbonated drinks containing sweeteners affect insulin sensitivity.

NCT ID: NCT01143493 Completed - Lipid Metabolism Clinical Trials

The Role of Glucocorticoid Receptor SNPs in Receptor Function and Metabolic Disease

Start date: September 30, 2010
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Background: - Glucocorticoids are primary stress response hormones released from the adrenal gland when an individual is under stress. Chronic or ongoing elevation of these hormones due to prolonged stress or medical treatments can have numerous harmful effects. Researchers are interested in learning more about how these hormones affect cell growth, development, and death. To study glucocorticoid hormones, researchers plan to use the medication dexamethasone, which affects the parts of cells that respond to glucocorticoid hormones. Objectives: - To study glucocorticoid stress hormones in healthy individuals before and after receiving dexamethasone. Eligibility: - Healthy individuals at least 18 years of age. - Participants must not be using certain medications that may affect the dexamethasone test, including hormonal contraception, steroid-based drugs, and some antidepressants. Design: - This study will require an initial screening visit and a second study visit. The visits are estimated to require about 1 to 2 hours of participation over a period of up to 14 days. - Participants will be screened at visit 1 with a full physical examination and medical history, and an initial blood sample for testing. - For visit 2, participants will be asked to abstain from all food and drinks except for water for 12 hours before the appointment, and will take one tablet of dexamethasone 9 hours before the appointment. - Participants will have a second blood sample taken during visit 2, and will receive a snack after the blood is drawn.

NCT ID: NCT00822003 Completed - Glucose Homeostasis Clinical Trials

Effects of Oral GLP-1 on Glucose Homeostasis and Appetite Profile in Healthy Male Subjects

Start date: February 2008
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The investigators aimed to investigate the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic effects of a single dose (2 mg) of oral GLP-1 administered prior to an oral glucose tolerance test (oGTT) in 16 healthy males
