Filter by:The goal of this study is to learn about how a naturally occurring hormone called kisspeptin affects blood sugar and insulin levels.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of chronic PDE5 inhibitor therapy on glucose metabolism in persons with prediabetes.
Preliminary research suggests that LIM-0705 improves insulin sensitivity with neutral effects on weight in obese and diabetic rodent models. Results from a Phase 1b clinical study, conducted in healthy volunteers, indicate that LIM-0705 and a major metabolite may be potential insulin sensitizers by OGTT.
The increase in diabetic population of the world is among the top ten causes of death; with diabetes always high on the list of causes of death. Diabetes is always relative to other major causes of death, (e.g. in cerebral vascular disease, cardiovascular disease and renal disease). The eating habits and patterns of the diabetic patient are the main causes for poor glycemic control. In epidemiological studies, high fiber and low sugar dietary intake can significantly reduce the incidence of diabetes. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of high fiber sugar-free biscuits in regulating blood glucose in pre-diabetic subjects. The study will be conducted in three periods: Period-I: The recruitment of 60 pre-diabetic subjects: Subjects of blood glucose levels "Impaired fasting glucose; IFG": fasting blood glucose ≧ 100 mg / dL, < 126 mg / dL or "Impaired glucose tolerance; IGT": 2 hours postprandial blood glucose ≧ 140mg/dL, < 200 mg/dL or clinically judged to be mild or moderate diabetes mellitus (HbA1c < 9%). In addition to perform pre-test, all subjects also need to complete nutrition counseling and nutrition education . All 60 subjects are randomly selected into two groups, Group-1,30 subjects, (Placebo group, normal fiber and normal sugar biscuit group), Group-2, 30 subjects, (Experimental group, high fiber and sugar free biscuit group) The period-II: Duration: 8 weeks Group-1,30 subjects, (Placebo group, normal fiber and normal sugar biscuit group) , All 30 subjects consume 3 servings of Low-fiber, normal sugar biscuits daily. Group-2, 30 subjects, (Experimental group, high fiber and sugar free biscuit group) All 30 subjects consume 3 serving of high-fiber, and sugar free biscuits (containing 16 grams of fiber) daily. Post-period: Blood samples of all 60 subjects will be collected to compare with period-I and period-II at the first day of 9th week. Report of expectation: The purpose of this study is to help the pre-diabetic subjects to reduce the risk of becoming diabetic through the consuming of high fiber and sugar free biscuits and nutrition education.
The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and efficacy of sitagliptin 100 mg every day (q.d.) in improving hyperglycemia and endothelial dysfunction in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance.
The objective of this trial is to investigate the effect of early treatment of glucose toxicity with acarbose, a drug to control postprandial hyperglycemia, on the occurence of cardiovascular events and the inhibition of atherosclerosis.
Subjects with impaired glucose tolerance will be randomized to either rosiglitazone or placebo for a 18 month period. The study will look at baseline, 12 month and 18 month data for exercise tolerance, coronary artery calcification and diabetes indicators.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether therapeutic intervention on impaired glucose tolerance in patients with coronary heart disease can decrease the incidence of new onset DM.
Many adipokines are thought that related with metabolic disturbance such as glucose intolerance, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance. It is reported that regular physical training could prevent the progression of diabetes from prediabetes and improve the insulin resistance. After physical training, many adipokine levels were changed due to improving insulin resistance. In this study, we will examine the various adipokine levels such as adiponectin, RBP-4, and adrenomedullin after exercise training through exercise prescription in IFG and IGT patients.
To understand if acarbose, an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor usually for treating diabetes, will further lower post meal glucose and inflammatory state when taking together with moderate amount of alcohol during meal tolerance test in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance or mild diabetes.
