Filter by:Whether insulin resistance common among Chronic Heart Failure (CHF) patients in Tayside and identify factors associated with insulin resistance in CHF. We also want to identify mechanism for the impaired exercise capacity and reduced peak VO2 in CHF
The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the effects of treatment with rosiglitazone and metformin on insulin resistance in patients infected with Human Immunodeficiency Virus on stable Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy including a Protease Inhibitor after the period of 48 weeks.
Prolactin is suggested to influence insulin resistance, but scarce data is available on the metabolic profile of patients with prolactinoma. The purpose of the protocol was to evaluate cardiovascular disease risk factors in women with prolactinoma treated with dopamine agonists and to study the influence of disease control and anthropometry on their metabolic profile.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of a physiological bolus of growth hormone on insulin signaling pathways in muscle tissue in healthy lean men.
Will metformin improve exercise capacity in chronic heart failure patients who has insulin resistance (pre-diabetic- means before they become diabetic)?
The purpose of this study is to determine whether uridine supplementation will improve insulin sensitivity and overall carbohydrate metabolism in HIV-positive subjects who are currently undergoing treatment with antiretroviral regimens containing stavudine or zidovudine and who have evidence of impaired mitochondrial function and insulin resistance.
Impact of resistance training in prepubertal children with obesity focusing mostly in changes in body composition and markers of insulin resistance. Hypothesis is that this will show positive changes in this randomized controlled trial.
Lipodystrophies represent a therapeutic challenge with regards to the management of the diabetes, insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridemia and fatty liver which frequently present in conjunction with significant adipose tissue loss. The purpose of the study and it's four subprojects is to examine the safety and efficacy of various novel interventions designed to improve or resolve the fatty liver, hypertriglyceridemia, and insulin resistance or diabetes that is seen in these patients.
The purpose of this research study is to find out if a certain type of hormone therapy, gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH agonist), affects the way the body produces and responds to insulin. The investigators will evaluate the changes in insulin sensitivity during and after GnRH agonist treatment for prostate cancer. The investigators are assessing the possibility that treatment-related insulin resistance may contribute to the risk of diabetes and/or cardiovascular disease in men with prostate cancer.
The purpose of this study is to find out if androgen deprivation therapy affects insulin, cardiac risk factors such as cholesterol level, and body fat and muscle.
