Filter by:Primary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of sugar reduction (starting from glucose and sucrose, respectively) on postprandial glycemic response to apple juice by comparing the reference food item apple juice (control) with the test product (apple juice with low sugar content) in male humans with impaired fasting glucose (IFG) (5.6-6.9mmol/l resp. 100-125mg/dL) (Kerner and Brückel, 2012 (DDG recommendation)) Secondary objective of this study is to investigate the effect of sugar reduction on postprandial insulinemic response. Exploratory objectives are to investigate further characteristics of postprandial glucose and insulin response and insulin sensitivity, gastrointestinal side effects and safety aspects.
The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of a fibre rich health food drink on the post prandial glucose and triglyceride peak in healthy overweight adults with impaired fasting glucose (IFG). The study is randomised, stratified, double blind, two treatments, two period cross over study.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a non-hematopoietic erythropoietin analogue, ARA 290, exerts beneficial effects on blood glucose levels and insulin secretion in persons with prediabetes (impaired glucose tolerance, IGT, or impaired fasting glucose, IFG), or drug-naive type 2 diabetes. The study will also evaluate effects of ARA 290 on insulin sensitivity and serum levels of inflammatory agents, e.g. cytokines. In addition, safety will be monitored by following parameters related to hematology, kidney and liver function and lipid levels.
We determined the effects of dietary intervention (replacement of refined rice with whole grains and legumes and a high intake of vegetables) on circulating Lp-PLA2 activity and enzyme activity in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in patients with impaired fasting glucose (IFG), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes.
Retrospective cohort of all the patients with elevated blood sugar (but no Diabetes) attending the study sites from 2002 to 2007. We retrieval their records to see how many of them actually developed diabetes. The patient's record will be followed up to 6 years after their first abnormally high blood sugar checked. We will measure their parameters including sex, age, pay code and whether they have hypertension or not to see what factors will increase risk of DM development.
Assessment of glucose metabolism and liver fat after 12 week dietary intervention in pre diabetes subjects. Subjects will be randomized to either high fat (olive oil supplemented),high carb/high fiber (beans supplemented) and high carb/low fiber diets. Glucose metabolism will be assessed by labeled oral glucose tolerance test and liver fat by magnetic resonance spectroscopy pre randomization and at 8 and 12 week after starting dietary intervention.
The Purpose of this study is to compare the effects of 2 types of dietary fiber, psyllium and microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), on glycemic measures in subjects with impaired fasting glucose.
The investigators hypothesize that sitagliptin will significantly reduce impairments in insulin secretion and insulin resistance resulting from short-term oral glucocorticoid therapy.
The study will determine if increasing the highs and lows of blood glucose levels (glycemic variability) impairs insulin secretion in people with impaired glucose tolerance and/or impaired fasting glucose who are at risk for developing type 2 diabetes. Furthermore, the study will determine whether changes in beta-cell function are associated with glycemic variability and whether they are mediated by oxidative stress. To decrease or increase glycemic variability the study will provide subjects with special diets containing either low or high glycemic index foods respectively for 4 weeks. To determine if oxidative stress is a mediator, subjects on the high glycemic index diet will take either placebo or the anti-oxidant N-acetylcysteine. The study will address the hypothesis that increased glycemic variability results in increased oxidative stress and thereby exacerbates beta-cell dysfunction in individuals with impaired glucose tolerance and/or impaired fasting glucose. The findings may have important implications for the development of effective strategies aimed at the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes. In addition, understanding the contribution of dietary glycemic index to beta-cell dysfunction in subjects with pre-diabetes may have a significant public health impact, including changes to dietary counseling and promotion of healthier eating patterns.
This study will supplement African American male (AAM) veterans at risk for diabetes and newly diagnosed T2DM with vitamin D (low or higher dose) and evaluate whether vitamin D helps to improve early markers of diabetes. The study will be done at Veteran Administration Medical Center in Chicago.
