Filter by:To examine how a low glycemic index diet (LGID) changes biochemical parameters, body measurements, and body image perception in obese individuals with insulin resistance. Obesity groups with insulin resistance who received a control diet (CD) and a LGID will be compared with each other in terms of biochemical parameters, body image perception and body measurements. In addition, each group will be compared with the start and end measurements over the same values.
The current study aim was to conduct placebo-controlled randomize clinical trial to assess the short-term efficacy and safety of postbiotics as an adjunction to the standard anti-diabetic therapy on insulin resistance, glycemic control parameters, β-cells functional activity, anthropometric parameters and markers of a chronic systemic inflammatory response in type 2 diabetes patients. The study will include 3 periods. Screening period of up to 1 weeks to assess the eligibility to inclusion/exclusion criteria. Treatment period for 3 month where the participants will receive a twice daily oral dose of postbiotics (cell lysate and DNA fragments of the probiotic strain L. rhamnosus DV - NRRLB-68023) at the assigned dose of 100mg or placebo in capsules. During this period monthly phone contacts will be done for assessment of compliance and safety concerns. Follow-up period of up to 3 month.
Probiotics have beneficial effect on obesity related disorders in animal models. Current understanding for the beneficial effects of probiotics in type 2 diabetes strictly relies on animal and clinical data, which mainly focus on their impact on insulin resistance, anthropometric parameters, glycemic control and markers of chronic systemic inflammation. From the other hand, there is a lack of evidence-based probiotic efficacy on pancreatic β-cell function in terms of type 2 diabetes and related metabolic disorders. In this double-blind single center randomized clinical trial, effect of alive multistrain probiotic vs. placebo on pancreatic β-cell function in type 2 diabetes patient will be assessed.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a single dose of the phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor alpelisib versus placebo in healthy volunteers. The main questions it aims to answer are the impact of acute alpelisib-induced insulin resistance on parameters of glucose and lipid metabolism (how healthy people respond to temporary insulin resistance so that the investigators can see what happens to how the liver handles fat and sugar). Participants will: - Consume their total calculated daily caloric needs in nutritional supplements, divided in three meals, and otherwise fast for 24 hours - Take a dose of alpelisib 300 mg or placebo at bedtime - Wear a continuous glucose monitor for 72 hours - Participate in an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) Researchers will compare blood tests before and during OGTT in participants randomized (like the flip of a coin) to alpelisib versus placebo to see how the drug treatment affects plasma glucose, serum insulin, and serum lipid parameters (triglycerides, free fatty acids, and apolipoprotein B).
Propolis, a natural resinous mixture rich in polyphenols, produced by bees from a variety of plant sources, has shown significant therapeutic effects and may prevent the development of certain chronic diseases. Current evidence supports the beneficial effect of these bioactive phytochemicals on the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and other chronic diseases. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of poplar propolis extract powder (PPEP) on glucose homeostasis and other clinical parameters in insulin-resistant patients (diagnosed by HOMA-IR index > 1.85 for men and > 2.07 for women).
The goal of this randomized, double-blind, parallel group interventional study is to evaluate the effect of ketone bodies on healthy older adults (65-85 y) during 5 days of bed rest. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does supplementation of ketone bodies prevent the typical decline in muscle protein synthesis, muscle size, muscle function, insulin sensitivity, and muscle mitochondrial function that occurs in response to bed rest? Researchers will compare ketone supplements (KET) to an energy matched control beverage (carbohydrates and fats) to see if the ketones can rescue the decline in muscle protein synthesis rates, muscle loss, muscle function, insulin sensitivity, and mitochondrial function due to 5 days of bed rest. This may positively impact the heath of older adults subjected to bed rest.
Purposes: The purpose of one-year project is to compare the effect of different intrasession exercise order of AE and RE during concurrent training on reducing VAT and improving insulin resistance for inactive middle-age community residents with obesity. Methods: Purposive sampling will be used to enroll community residents aged 40-64 years with inactive habit and body fat percentage ≧ 25% for male and ≧ 30% for female in southern Taiwan. Eligible participants will be stratified by sex and age (40-55years and 56-64 years) then block randomly divided into training group of AE preceding RE, RE preceding AE or a control group. The exercise training program will under supervision lasting 16 weeks with 3 times per week. The concurrent training prescription consist of AE 30 minutes and RE 15 minutes per session. A 5-minute interval between two exercise modalities. All participants will be evaluated outcomes for two time points including baseline (T0) and after 16-week intervention (T1). The primary outcomes are VAT and insulin resistance. A two-way ANOVA with repeated measures will be performed to compare changes of outcome variables over the intervention period. Relevance to clinical practice: The results of this project can assist health professionals to know how to properly prescribe concurrent training of AE and RE to achieve the greatest effects on VATreduction and insulin resistance improvement for middle-age residents with obesity.
The subject of doctoral dissertation: Assessment of the effects of a meatless, ketogenic restrictive diet on body composition, strength capacity, oxidative stress and immune response During planning of research and topic of the doctoral dissertation, it was considered how to modify a standard ketogenic diet rich in saturated fatty acids so that the use of this model of nutrition has the most anti-inflammatory effect. Therefore, it was decided to conduct a research to check whether a diet rich in omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids will show such an effect when following a high-fat diet. Hypotheses: 1. The ketogenic diet reduces systemic inflammation. 2.The ketogenic diet reduces oxidative stress. 3. The ketogenic diet reduces body fat. 4. A ketogenic diet does not worsen strength performance.
Patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and metabolic syndrome (MS) require high doses of insulin to achieve a glycemic control, due to insulin resistance (IR). The investigators identified the presence of metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance in patients with T1D in a population of southeast Mexico. The sampled population was recruited from the Diabetes Clinic of the Regional Hospital of High Specialty "Dr. Gustavo A. Rovirosa Pérez"; from August 2021 to February 2022, graduated physicians interviewed patients previously diagnosed with T1D. This study included patients older than 18 years and at least six months after being diagnosed with T1D. The interviewers excluded patients who did not attend regular consultations and those who did not agree to participate or to give a blood sample. A diabetologist evaluated and diagnosed all patients based on the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria. Fasting glucose, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triacylglycerols were determined in blood serum using a Clinical Chemistry System from Random Access Diagnostics. The reasearch team determined glycated hemoglobin concentrations by an enzymatic immunoassay method.
Introduction. Insulin resistance (IR) accompanies practically half of children with obesity. This alteration is the border between what can be reversible or permanent. Among the comorbidities associated with IR are T2D and cardio and cerebrovascular diseases, which are the leading causes of death in Mexico. It has been said that the prevention of obesity rather than its treatment is the way to contain this problem. It has been proposed to supplement obese children with IR with ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) or ω-9 monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) to determine their ability to reverse these alterations. Objetive. To evaluate the effect of supplementing PUFA ω-3, PUFA ω-9 or both, on the change in anthropometric and metabolic parameters in obese children with IR. Methods. Clinical trial, randomized triple-blind, in which obese children with IR participated. Intervention. Three groups were integrated that received one of the following treatments for three months: Group 1: PUFA ω-3 1.8 g/day; Group 2: PUFA ω-3 0.9 g/day + PUFA ω-9 0.9 g/day (avocado oil). Group 3: MUFA ω-9 1.8 g/day. Tracing. For 2 more months he continued his clinical surveillance. Anthropometric and metabolic profile measurements were made at baseline, 3 and 5 months. Throughout the study, all three child groups received nutritional counseling, but no calorie-restricted diets or exercise programs were used.
