Filter by:This study will investigate how maternal emotional state following a controlled stress exposure in pregnancy influences blood glucose and insulin levels after eating a standardized meal, and whether the effects of emotional state on blood glucose and insulin is different after eating a healthy meal (low GI) compared to a less healthy meal (high GI).
This is a pilot acute dietary intervention study with a randomized cross-over design aiming to investigate whether acute supplementation of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) rich in oleocanthal could attenuate postprandial hyperglycemia and activation of platelets in T2DM patients. For this reason, non-insulin dependent diabetic patients (10-15) will be randomly assigned to consume in five different days white bread (50 g CHO) with butter, butter with ibuprofen, refined olive oil and olive oil with oleocanthal (250 mg/Kg 500 mg/Kg). Blood samples will be collected pre- and post-intervention up to 4 hours in order to determine platelet aggregation, postprnadial glycemia, lipemia, inflammation and oxidative stress. Taking into account the strong anti-inflammatory and anti-platelet properties of oleocanthal, this study will assess whether oleocanthal-rich olive oils could exert similar effects under real in vivo conditions in T2DM patients. It will also assess whether these effects are achieved through improvement of postprandial glycemia and lipemia.
This study investigates whether bread with added galactomannan, a soluble fiber, can reduce the postprandial glucose response in healthy overweight adults.
One of the main challenges in maintaining tight glucose control in a closed-loop system occurs at meal times. Amylin is a gluco-regulatory beta-cell hormone that is co-secreted with insulin in response to nutrient stimuli, and is deficient in patients with type 1 diabetes. Amylin, in the postprandial period, contributes to regulating glucose levels by delaying gastric emptying, suppressing nutrient-stimulated glucagon secretion, and increasing satiety. Pramlintide is a synthetic analog of the hormone amylin. A closed-loop system that delivers both insulin and pramlintide, based on glucose sensor readings, has the potential to better normalize glucose levels, especially during the post-prandial period. The aim of this project is to assess whether co-administration of pramlintide with rapid insulin in an artificial pancreas system will improve glycemic control in adults with Type 1 Diabetes.
Postprandial hyperglycemia is a hallmark feature of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2D), and persistent elevated glycemic level has shown to be strongly associated with oxidative stress, and a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). In Malaysia, the glycemic control is poor and patients with T2D commonly experiencing persistent postprandial hyperglycemia (12.7 mmol/L). A low glycemic index (GI) meal has been reported to reduce postprandial glycemia and insulin concentration in patients with T2D. Metabolomics technique can be used to identify comprehensive metabolites in response to different diet. Till date, local scientific data documented on the role and interaction between diet and metabolites for the Malaysian patients with T2D is unknown. This study is to determine the postprandial metabolomic effect of low and high GI meals in patients with T2D using the NMR-based metabolomics approach. Then, patients with T2D will be assigned for 14 days of chronic feeding trial intervention. This study will help to establish local baseline data and understand the impact of meal-patterns on metabolic and metabolite at postprandial responses.
Determine the effect of feet and calf heating on glucose tolerance relative to thermoneutral control. Heat will be administered using hot water (40 degrees celsius).
Malnutrition or its risk is common among older people. To maintain adequate nutrition, increased meal frequency is important. In addition to main meals, regular consumption of nutrient- and energy-dense snacks is recommended. The study examines the post-meal responses to dairy- and berry-based snacks tailored for older people. The plasma concentrations of glucose, insulin and free fatty acids are measured during three hours after snack consumption. In addition, subjective satiety responses and heart rate variability are recorded.
The study examines the effect of black currant on glucose and insulin concentrations after a meal. In addition, the cytokine and free fatty acids levels are of interest.
This study aims to determine the most effective strategy of reducing sedentary behavior to improve health. Specifically, we aim to answer the following questions: (a) To determine if there is a significant difference in acute post-prandial glucose response between continuous sitting and two intermittent standing regimes (high frequency, low duration breaks (HFLD) and low frequency, high duration breaks (LFHD)). We hypothesize that intermittent standing (combined HFLD breaks and LFHD breaks regimes) will result in lower overall acute post-prandial glucose compared to continuous sitting. (b) To determine if there is a significant difference in acute post-prandial glucose response between two strategies to reduce sitting with standing (HFLD standing breaks vs. LFHD standing breaks). We hypothesize that the HFLD breaks condition will elicit lower acute post-prandial glucose level compared to the LFHD breaks condition. All eligible participants will be consented and subjected to all three study conditions: (i) Uninterrupted sitting, (ii) HFLD breaks, and (iii) LFHD breaks. The order at which participants were subjected to these conditions will be randomly determined and each condition were performed a week apart. Standardized meals (breakfast and lunch) will be provided during each lab visit and participants will be then be asked to perform their usual work activity using a sit-stand workstation in the lab. Depending on their assigned condition, the participants will be prompted to stand or sit for a given period of time. A continuous glucose monitor will be used to measure glucose response to the intervention while an activPAL device will be used to make sure that participants are compliant with the study protocol.
This is a dietary intervention study in students and staff of Westlake University, which is designed to provide evidence in support of N-of-1 methods as an approach to advance personalized nutrition. The primary aim is using a series of N-of-1 trials to determine the impacts of a high fat, low carbohydrate diet (HF-LC) on glucose metabolism and gut microbiota in subjects versus a low fat, high carbohydrate diet (LF-HC) at both the individual and group level.
