Filter by:The primary purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate whether the consumption of pigmented rice (black rice) in the diet improves cardiovascular health, specifically body weight, lipids, and glucose levels. It also aims to know whether people enjoyed eating pigmented rice and if they would continue eating it.
This is a prospective, descriptive, single site, observational study in subjects receiving alpelisib for treatment of metastatic breast cancer. The purpose of the study is to characterize the impact of alpelisib on glucose control in patients with breast cancer using continuous glucose monitoring to measure glucose levels throughout the day and night. Patients will follow a hyperglycemia prevention and management regimen aimed to diminish hyperglycemia known to occur in most oncology patients starting alpelisib. All patients will wear an Abbott FreeStyle Libre 2 system to obtain continuous glucose monitor (CGM) data (glucose measured every minute for 14 days). CGM will be placed at least 10 days prior to starting alpelisib and continue for at least 3 months while taking alpelisib.
Glucose intolerance is the commonest medical disorder complicating pregnancy. Hyperglycemia increases the risk of delivering a large for gestational age newborn (LGA) and related complications such as operative delivery, birth trauma and the poor adaptation of the newborn . Maternal risks of GDM include also polyhydramnios, preeclampsia, premature delivery, prolonged labor, uterine atony, postpartum hemorrhage, infection and progression of retinopathy which are the leading global causes of maternal morbidity and mortality .Detection of women at higher risk for GDM early in pregnancy is a desirable goal because interventions such as diet, medication, and exercise may be applied earlier in pregnancy and potentially can reduce later development of GDM or its associated morbidities. Most GDM cases are diagnosed after mid-gestation following an abnormal glucose challenge test (GCT). However, about 10% of patients with GDM can be diagnosed in the first trimester.
Background: Dysglycemia in critically ill patients is common, where 40% to 54% of patients were found to be hyperglycemic on intensive care unit admission. Several randomized controlled trials (RCT) were conducted to address the importance of glycemic control during critical illness on patient's outcomes. The American association of diabetes recommends initiation of insulin infusion for critically ill patients aiming to target glucose levels 140-180 mg/dl. However, several limitations prevent the use of insulin infusion in critically ill such as the requirements of frequent blood glucose measurement and nursing staff workload, which in turn led to the use of the subcutaneous rapid acting and basal insulin during critical illness. The evidence on the use of subcutaneous insulin therapy compared to insulin infusion is mainly derived from observational studies that showed conflicting results. Multiple RCTs demonstrated the comparable efficacy of degludec versus glargine in blood glycemic control and better safety profile in terms of nocturnal hypoglycemia and severe hypoglycemia in the outpatient/inpatient diabetic population. Studies addressing the role, safety, and efficacy of degludec in critically ill patients are lacking. Study aim: To assess the effectiveness of using insulin degludec as basal insulin in conjunction with subcutaneous regular insulin sliding scale (ISS) in the glycemic control in critically ill patients.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of coenzyme Q10 supplementation (150 mg/b.i.d, 300 mg/d, 12 weeks) on coenzyme Q10, glucose parameters, BDNF, myokines, and cognitive function in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients who combined with hyperglycemia but without sarcopenia, or with hyperglycemia and pre-sarcopenia.
Citrus bioflavonoids, such as eriocitrin, hesperidin and naringin, have been shown improved hyperglycemia, insulin resistance and systemic inflammation, related to the development of type 2 diabetes. The nutraceutical Eriomin, a lemon flavonoid extract composed mainly by eriocitrin (70%) and other flavonoids (30%), improved the control of moderate hyperglycemia in pre-diabetic and diabetic patients without drug therapy. However, most patients with pre-diabetes are on oral biguanide (metformin) therapy, despite its limited efficacy (30-40%) on glycemic control and its undesirable gastrointestinal effects. Therefore, in the current study, Eriomin will be administered at a dose of 250 mg/d to adults diagnosed with pre-diabetes and being treated with metformin (1,000 mg/d). This clinical trial was designed as a placebo-control, double-blind, two-arm, crossover design. Clinical characteristics, body composition, food consumption, metabolic and inflammatory biomarkers and the microbiota of all patients will be evaluated before, during and at the end of the 12-week period (arm). Biochemical and metabolic parameters associated with prediabetes are expected to improve or return to normal with Eriomin in combination with metformin. At the same time, an increase in beneficial intestinal bacteria is expected, reducing pre-diabetic dysbiosis, and perhaps a noticeable improvement in body composition.
The goal of this study is to learn about the relationship between blood sugar, diet, stress, and metabolic parameters including waist circumference, body mass index (BMI), cholesterol levels and blood pressure in patients at risk for diabetes. The main questions it aims to answer are 1) are there trends in blood sugar responses after meals for patients at risk of developing diabetes? And 2) are there correlations between stress and fluctuations in blood sugar? During the first visit, participant's waist circumference, body composition, cholesterol, and resting blood pressure will be measured, and a continuous glucose monitor sensor will be placed on the participant's non-dominant arm. This sensor will be worn for seven days, and the participant will be asked to complete a daily food log during that time. Each participant will be asked to return to clinic after one week to return the continuous glucose monitor and daily food log.
This study explores the efficacy of domestic adlay in improving blood sugar and lipids metabolism, cardiovascular function, and weight control in people with high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, and hyperglycemia. Through two weeks of cooked adlay-rice and white rice by a randomized cross-over design to evaluate the lipid- and glucose-lowering effects of adlay on patient with hyperlipidemia and/or hyperglycemia.
This research is being done to better understand how insulin effects muscle, blood, and the body in people with Type 1 Diabetes.
Brief Summary: Ketones are a source of energy and signaling molecule that are produced by the body when not consuming any food or consistently eating a low-carbohydrate "keto" diet. Blood ketones can be used as a source of energy by the body, but they may also act as signals that impact how different cells in the body function. Recently, ketone supplements have been developed that can be consumed as a drink. These supplements can raise blood ketones without having to fast or eat a "keto" diet. Previous studies have shown that these supplement drinks can lower blood sugar without having to make any other dietary changes. Drinking these ketone supplements may therefore be an effective strategy to improve blood sugar control and influence how cells function. To find out if it is feasible for people with type 2 diabetes to drink these ketones supplements regularly over 90 days, we will compare between two groups in this study: one group that will be asked to drink ketone supplements, and one group that will be asked to drink a placebo supplement.
