Filter by:This prospective, multicenter, cross-sectional, repeated-measures comparative study compared functional and biochemical response profiles to exercise between 2 groups of chronically ill patients (chronic renal failure dialysis patients and patients with metabolic syndrome) and a group of healthy subjects. The hypothesis is that the addition of plasma metabolic intermediates associated with energy disorders linked to insulin resistance, will improve the sensitivity of the assessment of muscle oxidative metabolism abnormalities, as reported in exercise intolerant subjects. In this way, the metabolomics approach during exercise would provide a biological and functional "signature" of insulin resistance of muscular origin, discriminating between insulin-resistant patients, healthy control subjects and dialysis patients, with an exercise metabolic profile approaching that observed in insulin-resistant patients. A better understanding of metabolic abnormalities could guide muscle rehabilitation. Participants will be asked to perform an exercise test, with several blood samples taken at different exercise intensities. Researchers will compare the metabolic profile of three groups: patients with chronic kidney disease, patients with metabolic syndrome and healthy subjects: - V'O2-adjusted lactate at rest and during exercise - The combination of exercise energy metabolism intermediates reflecting insulin resistance among Krebs cycle cofactors/substrates, ß-oxidation cofactors/substrates, amino acids
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common liver disease worldwide, and is associated with obesity and the metabolic syndrome. Physical activity and lifestyle interventions are among the most recommended treatments for individuals with MASLD. In this RCT, we will evaluate the effect of combined exercise training "strength and aerobic training" versus "strength and high intensity training (HIIT)". The main outcome parameter is the severity of liver steatosis. Patients will be recruited at the fatty liver clinic of the UZ Gent.
The aim of the present study was to investigate the correlation between the triglyceride/glucose index (TyG index) and homeostasic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) to predict insulin resistance (IR) in obese adults
The study conducted a health survey among Thai adults in 2022 and found a significant increase in obesity and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), leading to metabolic-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). The prevalence of NAFLD was 19.7%, with higher rates in individuals with metabolic syndrome and diabetes. MASLD is associated with insulin resistance and genetic polymorphisms, particularly the patatin like phospholipase domain containing 3-rs738409 variant. Additionally, physical activity was inversely related to liver disease risk, with higher step counts associated with reduced incidence of NAFLD and liver-related mortality. The study aims to investigate the impact of dietary advice and pedometer use on physical activity levels and health outcomes in MASLD patients over 24 weeks.
The objective of the study is to determine the effect of dairy product matrices on insulin sensitivity in overweight and obese adults with prediabetes. Females and males (30-65 y) will be recruited from the greater Montreal area. Upon screening, those with prediabetes will complete a 2-wk run-in period in which participants will consume 1 serving/d of regular-fat dairy products (milk, yogurt, or cheese). Adherent participants will be randomized by sex into 1 of 3 groups: ≤1 serving/d of dairy (limited dairy) or 2-3 servings/d of reduced-fat or regular-fat dairy for 12 weeks. Participants will be instructed on how to incorporate foods into their diet to prevent changes in their body weight. The hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp will be used before and after the intervention to document potential changes in insulin sensitivity as the primary outcome. In addition, glycemic variables, body composition, and cardiometabolic risk factors will be assessed as secondary outcomes. Adherence to intervention will be assessed at each visit by food diaries and a record of consumed dairy products.
This study investigates the potential of vericiguat, a soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator, to improve cardiometabolic health in obese Black individuals with insulin resistance by directly enhancing cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) activity. Given that this population has been shown to have lower cGMP activity and the association of lower cGMP activity with increased cardiometabolic disease risk, the proposed study hypothesizes that augmenting cGMP activity in obese individuals will improve insulin sensitivity and energy expenditure. This study is a placebo-controlled randomized trial involving 200 Black obese participants with insulin resistance, assessing the effects of vericiguat on insulin sensitivity, resting, and exercise-induced energy expenditure over 12 weeks. Additionally, it will explore changes in brown adipose tissue and gene expression related to energy metabolism in white adipose tissue, aiming to provide insights into how increasing cGMP activity may improve cardiometabolic health in Black obese individuals.
Standardized longitudinal data collection of diabetes management relevant factors in women with T1D (insulin requirements (insulin pump or smart pen data), glucose variability (CGM data), nutritional information, and menstrual cycle information (cycle tracking app, LH tests, and premenstrual symptoms)) to identify categories of cycle trajectories.
To investigate whether co-administration of lactate with a glucose load affects postprandial glucose levels/handling, gastrointestinal hormones, gastric emptying, and appetite sensations in individuals with pre-diabetes when compared to placebo. Hypothesis: Oral lactate administration improves/lowers glucose excursions following an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) by stimulating insulin secretion and delaying glucose absorption.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to test the effect of time-restricted eating (14-hour fast, 10-hour eating window) of a low-energy dense diet (reduced calories per gram of food) in older adults with obesity and insulin resistance. The study aims to determine if modulating the energy density of the diet reduces: 1. Insulin resistance and 2. Body weight. Researchers will compare the groups: 1. Following time-restricted eating and given a diet reduced in energy density or 2. Following time-restricted eating and given a diet typically consumed in this population
The goal of this [Efficacy of a traditional anti-diabetic herbal drug with on glycemic, inflammatory, and oxidative stress parameters] is [investigate the level of HOMA-estimated insulin resistance as the primary outcome before and after 40 days in intervention and placebo groups] in [patients with type 2 diabetes]. The secondary outcomes of this study are the assessment of oxidative stress, inflammation biomarkers, other glycemic indices, hematopoietic status and lipid profile between the two groups before and after the intervention. also The food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) and the physical activity questionnaire (FAQ) are used to evaluate the effect of potential confounding factors. This study has the code of ethics IR.KMU.REC.1402.291 from Kerman University of Medical Sciences and this drug has the number 12/14484 from Iran Food and Drug Administration (IFDA).
