Filter by:The purpose of the current study is to examine the effects of a dietary supplement containing plant derived phenolics at two different dose levels in otherwise generally healthy adults with risk factors (high BMI at dyslipidemia and/or pre-diabetes) for body fat composition. The primary hypothesis is that supplementation with plant derived phenolics will decrease body fat composition compared to placebo.
The primary objective of this study is to ascertain the effects of chronic consumption of a hydroxytyrosol-rich extract from olive (Hytolive®) in a population at high risk of developing age-related pathologies such as type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. The markers measured will be associated with oxidative stress, inflammation, and homeostasis glucose and lipid profiles. Improvements in these parameters could potentially prevent the onset of pathologies associated with aging.
Purpose of the Study: This study is to learn more about how exercising at different times of the day (morning versus evening) affects metabolism of glucose in the body, sleep, activity outside of exercise, and other factors. Procedures: - 2 screening visits to make sure you are eligible to be in the study. This will include a fasting blood draw and heart tracing (EKG). - If you are eligible, you will complete both exercise conditions in a random order. All participants in the study will complete the following separated by 3-4 weeks: - Baseline condition of NO exercise - Morning exercise for 3 days in a row - Evening exercise for 3 days in a row - You will be provided with an example diet to follow for the days you are completing the baseline and exercise conditions (three days total for each condition). This diet will be a "traditional" diet with a controlled amount of carbohydrates, protein, and fat per day. The investigators will provide you with examples of meals to eat during this time. - You will be asked questions and complete questionnaires about your health history, sleeping and awakening habits, and sleepiness levels. - You will undergo one x-ray scan to measure your level of body fat. - You will be asked to wear an activity monitor and sleep monitor for 6 days in a row three times during this study. - You will be asked to wear a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) for 6 days in a row three times during this study. - You will be asked to measure your saliva melatonin levels three times in the study. This will be done once per hour for 5 hours (a total of 6 saliva samples). - You will be asked to complete a procedure called a "hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp" where you will have an IV placed and insulin and glucose infused with frequent lab and finger stick blood sugars monitored closely. This will be done 3 times during the study.
The main clinical study objective is to confirm the accuracy of the Glyconics-DS spectrometer when used in its intended medical purpose population, i.e., in individuals with unknown diabetes risk. Additionally, this investigation will serve as a pivotal performance evaluation for the associated software for correct delivery of the algorithm-based analysis of the individual diabetes risk. The study will be considered positive if the backend delivery of the chemometrics output is performed correctly as per the cloud-based analysis and its delivery represents the essential medical software to be evaluated in this investigation. The 'true' diabetes risk will be contrasted against values of an internal biomarker indicative of glycaemia, HbA1c, as measured based on standardised, certified methodology.
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the effectiveness of Cooperative Extension implementing two delivery methods (group video vs. self-directed) and participant recruitment strategies of the National Diabetes Prevention Program (NDPP) to adults in rural communities. Exploratory assessments of implementation facilitators and barriers will be completed to determine strategies that may impact intervention effectiveness and that may support or impede the implementation, dissemination, and effectiveness of Cooperative Extension to deliver the NDPP to prediabetic adults in rural areas.
The goal of the Self-monitoring With Internet Technology to Choose Healthy Diets (SWITCH) study is to examine a 12-week remotely delivered program designed to help adults adopt a healthy dietary lifestyle and lose weight in a diverse cohort of adults with overweight/obesity. The intervention uses a self-determination theory framework to provide a deeper understanding of the factors that influence dietary behavior within the context of tracking. This study incorporates autonomy-supportive strategies to encourage participants to feel more in control of their dietary choices and will provide information and resources to boost participant's competence in achieving their dietary goals. The intervention includes weekly learning modules to support healthy eating and weight loss and daily dietary tracking with visual feedback, all accessible within the SWITCH app.
The purpose of this observational trial is to advance digital health monitoring through the analysis of Photoplethysmography (PPG) waveforms collected via RE.DOCTOR Vitals software. The study aims to collect a diverse and extensive dataset of PPG waveforms, alongside traditional physiological measurements, for the purpose of enhancing existing algorithms and machine learning models used in health monitoring. The primary focus is on improving the accuracy and reliability of algorithms in interpreting PPG data to derive meaningful insights into physiological parameters. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How can extensive datasets of PPG waveforms be utilized to enhance existing algorithms and machine learning models? - How do correlations between PPG waveforms and key physiological parameters (such as glucose levels, blood pressure, heart rate, respiration rate) contribute to refining algorithms for more accurate and reliable health predictions? Participants will be asked to: - Continuously monitor their health using smartphone applications. - Allow the collection of PPG waveforms in diverse settings. - Engage in tasks related to monitor health parameters using medically approved devices
In the present study the investigators will examine whether people living with prediabetes benefit from an e-health lifestyle intervention of three months.
The aim of this research is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of green tea in obese pediatrics with prediabetes versus the metformin therapy alone that is given to these patients. The primary outcome is to tackle the insulin resistance in these patients to prevent the deterioration of prediabetes to type 2 diabetes. The assessment of the effect on insulin resistance by using homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR levels) as well as the effect on blood glucose levels and glycated hemoglobin. The other primary outcome is to observe the effect of the intervention on the lipid profile, leptin and adiponectin. The secondary outcome is to determine the effect of green tea on the oxidative and inflammatory markers and to evaluate its safety and efficacy. The study design is prospective parallel randomized open- label controlled interventional clinical trial that will be conducted in El-Demerdash hospital children's endocrinology unit. The patients who fit the inclusion criteria will be educated about the study protocol and will be required to sign a written informed consent. The inclusion criteria are: children whose age is between 10 to 18, whose HOMA-IR >2.5, BMI >= 95th percentile and have no sensitivity towards green tea and willing to sign informed consent. Patients who have causes of endogenous obesity will be excluded and those who have any other comorbid conditions. All patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned by simple randomization into either Group 1 (Control group): Consists of 45 patients who will receive their conventional therapy which is Metformin 500 mg film coated tablets (Glucophage). Group 2 (Interventional group): Consists of 45 patients who will receive Green Tea 300 mg (Green tea 300 mg film coated tablets Mepaco Egypt) thrice daily + Metformin 500 mg film coated tablets (Glucophage). At baseline the following parameters will be collected during patients' interview and from patients' files: Demographic data as age, sex, weight and height (BMI), family history, medical history, medication history. Thyroid functions (TSH/T3): to rule out any other endocrine causes of obesity. Cortisol levels (am and pm): to rule out any other endocrine causes of obesity. The following laboratory' measurements will be tested at baseline and at the end of study (4 months): Complete Blood Picture, fasting blood glucose and postprandial blood glucose, fasting plasma insulin, homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance, homeostatic model assessment for β-cell function, lipid profile, leptin, adiponectin, malondialdehyde, liver functions, kidney functions, c-reactive protein, nuclear factor kappa beta. Patients will be educated about the side effects and/or adverse effects of green tea, where safety and tolerability will be monitored by reporting the incidence of any side effect and /or adverse effect such as liver problems, yellowing of the color of skin or white of the eyes or stomach pain. Participants will be followed up during the study period every 2 weeks through clinic visits and by phone in order to assure compliance as well as monitoring of incidence of any side/adverse effects and informing the patients who to handle it.
