Filter by:Emerging evidence suggests that following a 'carbohydrate-last meal pattern', wherein foods rich in protein, fat, fiber, and/or polyphenols are consumed before sources of simple carbohydrate (CHO) in a meal, results in reduced postprandial glycaemic responses than the reverse food order or a co-ingestion pattern. This effect has been observed across the spectrum of glucose tolerance, from patients with diabetes to individuals with normal glucose tolerance (Kuwata et al., 2016; Nishino et al., 2018; Lu et al., 2019; Sun et al., 2020). Furthermore, reduced glucose excursions have been linked to decreased subsequent hunger and energy intake (Lu et al., 2019; Wyatt et al., 2021). However, to date, no studies on food intake sequence have targeted athletes, despite their increased CHO demands (Thomas et al., 2016) which could expose them to repeated episodes of hyperglycaemia and high glycaemic variability, known to increase the risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes and all-cause mortality (Loader et al., 2015; Cavero-Redondo et al., 2017; Faerch et al., 2018). Additionally, athletes often face pressure to meet body composition standards and may benefit from strategies that enhance satiety and craving control. Finally, there is reason to believe that better glycaemic control could lead to improved performance, given that enhancements in endurance activities have been observed with a low-glycemic-index diet compared to a high-glycemic-index diet (Heung-Sang Wong et al., 2017). Therefore, this randomised crossover trial is part of a wider project which seeks to explore the impact of food intake sequence on metabolic health and performance in athletes. Specifically, this trial aims to investigate the acute, postprandial metabolic and appetite responses to consuming an identical meal in two intake sequences (CHO-last versus CHO-first) in athletes, while in the resting state.
The objectives of this study are to examine how sex hormones (use of hormonal birth control, menstrual cycle phase) impact glycemic control among women with type 1 diabetes (T1D), and to test adjustments to insulin dosing and food intake to ameliorate cycle-related glycemic variability. A secondary aim is to examine how the menstrual cycle and use of hormonal birth control impact patient-reported outcomes and glycemic responses to physical activity.
The overall objective of this research is to determine the digestive faith and health impact of protein and fiber rich foods in different food matrices in type 2 diabetes risk population. This is achieved by controlled postprandial intervention where plasma amino acids, lipids, glucose metabolism, bile acids and microbial metabolites are evaluated as well as fecal microbiota and metabolites.
The goal of this study is to investigate the relationship between vitamin D status and a diabetes risk factor, postprandial glycaemic response in White, South Asian and Black African Caribbean populations in East London. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Are there differences in postprandial glycaemic response to a sugar water drink or orange juice between White, South Asian and Black African Caribbean people in East London? - Is there a relationship plasma 25(OH)D and the postprandial glycaemic response to a sugar water drink or orange juice consumption? - What are the knowledge and perceptions of vitamin D intake between White, South Asian and Black African Caribbean people in East London? - Is there a difference in dietary vitamin D intake between the three ethnic groups? Participants will make two visits to the lab, approximately 2.5 hours each. The order of the two drinks will be randomized via Excel Random function. For each visit, the blood sugar levels will be measured at fasting (0) and every 30 minutes up to 2 hours postprandially (5 times total) using a finger prick. At baseline only (visit 1), participants will fill out a knowledge and perception survey, provide a 4-day estimated food diary, provide a 7 ml blood sample via phlebotomy, and have their height, weight and body fat percentage measured.
This is a single-center, observational, descriptive, longitudinal, and prospective study This study aims to determine the cumulative incidence during admission and the incidence rate of potential hypoglycemic events (defined as subcutaneous glucose <80 mg/dL detected by CGM) in patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of HLA Moncloa Hospital over four years of follow-up. The study also aims to document the occurrences of hypoglycemic events, describe the characteristics of patients receiving CGM sensors, and outline the actions taken as a result of detecting potential hypoglycemic events
Clinical guidelines from professional organizations have recommended the use of multidose insulin regimens as the preferred therapy for glycaemic control in patients admitted to hospital in a non-intensive-careunit setting. The use of a basal-bolus regimen with a once daily basal insulin and rapid-acting insulin analogs before meals has been shown to improve glycaemic control and to reduce the rate of hospital complications in general medical and surgical patients with type 2 diabetes.The basal-bolus regimen however is labour intensive, requiring several insulin injections, and is associated with a high risk of hypoglycaemia. Hypoglycaemia has been reported in 12% to 32% of patients in general medicine and surgery with type 2 diabetes treated with basal-bolus insulin regimens.Because of these limitations, alternative treatment regimens are needed that could improve glycaemic control and clinical outcomes, while facilitating care and minimising the risk of hypoglycaemia in patients with diabetes.
Hyperglycemia associated with insulin resistance is common in critically ill patients, even in those nondiabetic patients. Hyperglycaemia or relative insulin deficiency (or both) during critical illness may directly or indirectly confer a predisposition to complications, such as severe infections, polyneuropathy, multiple-organ failure, and death. Tight glycaemic control in adult long-stay critically ill patients using intensive insulin therapy reduces absolute mortality. It has been reported that pronounced hyperglycemia may lead to complications in such patients, although data from controlled trials are lacking. However, target glycaemia may be difficult to achieve in clinical practice. Insulin adsorption onto infusion equipment (e.g., infusion tubing) may affect glucose control, possibly leading to hyperglycemia. In the use of low-level intravenous insulin infusion for treating diabetic hyperglycaemia and ketoacidosis adsorption of insulin to containers or plastic infusion apparatus results in significant losses of 60-80% of insulin in dilute physiological saline solution. Problem statement & Study rationale Up to my knowledge, there is no study that demonstrate differences between types of dilution for insulin infusion in ICU patient in Malaysia; thus, this study is aimed to evaluate it. In 2001 it has been reported that intensive insulin therapy (IIT) in surgical intensive care unit (ICU) patients was associated with reduction in mortality and morbidity as well as other associated factors. There is limited study in comparing dilution of insulin in normal saline and other types of diluents. Other than that, it is important to know which diluent the best is to choose for the management of hyperglycaemia in ICU patient.
This randomized controlled crossover trial of 36 pregnant individuals with gestational diabetes (GDM) or gestational glucose intolerance (GGI) will: 1. Determine the effects of physical activity (PA) timing, specifically 30 minutes of moderate intensity walking or stepping in the morning (between 5am-9am, within 30-40 minutes of starting breakfast), versus late afternoon/evening (between 4pm-8pm, within 30-40 minutes of dinner) on glucose across the 24-hour cycle. 2. Explore the potential effects of the timing of PA on sleep and mood state.
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an X-linked disorder that causes muscle wasting, cardiopulmonary failure, and premature death. Heart failure is a leading cause of death in DMD, but substantial knowledge gaps exist regarding predisposing risk factors. In the general population, hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and decreased heart rate variability (HRV; reflecting autonomic dysfunction) are associated with cardiomyopathy (CM). It is unclear whether these factors are associated with DMD-CM. Closing this knowledge gap may lead to novel screening and therapeutic strategies to delay progression of DMD-CM, now the leading cause of death in patients with DMD. Despite risk factors for hyperglycemia, including the use of glucocorticoids (GCs), sarcopenia, obesity, and reduced ambulation, little is known regarding glucose abnormalities in DMD. Some of these same risk factors, along with the distance needed to travel for specialty care, present significant barriers to research participation and clinical care for individuals with DMD. Remote wearable technology may improve research participation in this vulnerable population. Therefore, this study will leverage remote wearable technologies to overcome these barriers and define the relationship between dysglycemia and DMD-CM. The goal of this remote study is to evaluate rates of hyperglycemia in individuals with DMD compared to control participants using continuous glucose monitors, and to determine the relationship between hyperglycemia and heart rate variability. Participants will utilize continuous glucose monitors, cardiac monitors, and activity monitors to evaluate glucose levels, heart rate, activity, and sleep.
The primary objective of the STRIVE study is to compare two implementation strategies for Diabetes Prevention Program delivery: an in-person health coach strategy (standard 24 in-person sessions at WIC clinics) vs. a multifaceted technology-assisted health coach implementation strategy (12 in-person sessions at WIC clinics supplemented by technology support) on implementation and health-related outcomes in postpartum women.
