Filter by:Enterovirus infections may either increase or decrease the risk of type 1 diabetes depending on the age of infection and the type of enterovirus in question. This study evaluated whether early serial exposures to three replication-competent enterovirus strains (live poliovirus vaccine, OPV) can influence the immunity to other enteroviruses and the possible initiation of autoantibodies e.g. islet autoimmunity in young genetically predisposed children.
Pasta is an important example of a food which can lower the glycemic index (GI) of the diet, a property that has been exploited extensively in studies of low GI dietary patterns. Although low-GI dietary patterns have been shown to improve body weight, glycemic control and blood lipids, it is unclear whether pasta as part of low-GI dietary patterns will improve measures of global adiposity including body weight. The lack of high quality knowledge syntheses to support evidence-based dietary guidance of the cardiometabolic benefits of pasta represents an urgent call for stronger evidence. To improve evidence-based guidance for pasta recommendations, the investigators propose to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of controlled studies in humans to assess the effect of eating pasta as part of a low GI diet compared to other diets on measures of adiposity (body fatness) in humans. The systematic review process allows the combining of the results from many studies in order to arrive at a pooled estimate, similar to a weighted average, of the true effect. The investigators will be able to explore whether eating pasta as part of a low GI diet has different effects between men and women, in different age groups and in people with high or normal sugar. The findings of this proposed knowledge synthesis will help improve the health of Canadians through informing recommendations for the general public, as well as those at risk of heart disease and diabetes.
Dried fruits show promising potential for the management of blood glucose. Previous trials have reported beneficial effects of raisins on post-prandial glucose and insulin responses in healthy individuals when compared with white bread. However, to date there is limited data evaluating the potential beneficial effects of other dried fruits (i.e. sultanas, dates and apricots). It is also unclear whether dried fruits can be used to lower the postprandial glycemic responses to high-GI carbohydrate foods by either displacing available carbohydrate (displacement effect) or providing 'catalytic' doses of fructose ('catalytic' fructose effect). To address these questions, the investigators propose to assess the GI of 4 common types of dried fruit (raisins, sultanas, dates, apricots) (GI effect) and their ability to decrease the postprandial glycemic response to white bread by either partially displacing available carbohydrate (displacement effect) or by providing a 'catalytic' dose of fructose ('catalytic' fructose effect).
The investigators' general goal is to identify approaches to risk stratification and health promotion through lifestyle modification that are acceptable, effective and efficient for prevention of T2D in South Asian communities from diverse settings.
The goal of this study is to assess the effects of consumption of a lean pork-containing, high-protein breakfast versus a refined carbohydrate-rich breakfast on satiety and cardiometabolic parameters in overweight or obese adults with pre-diabetes.
The objective of this study is to compare the effects of adding three plant-based proteins (rice, oats and pea proteins) to a breakfast beverage on the glycemic response, appetite and subsequent food intake of healthy adults.
This study was a pilot 3-month clinical trial that investigated the feasibility, effectiveness, and acceptability of using the Track Health function of the Veterans Health Administration's patient health record for effecting a more positive physical activity (PA) and dietary intake lifestyle in a sample of 38 overweight and obese Veterans with prediabetes. Baseline and three-month post-intervention outcomes were measured in two main domains: objective (e.g., weight) and subjective (e.g., self-efficacy).
The overall aim of this feasibility trial is to assess the effectiveness of a wearable technology and an e-diabetes prevention programme delivered via a smartphone application, including motivational messaging, in reducing weight and increasing physical activity in people at risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
This research will help us to learn if the medicine called metformin reduces the risk of death, heart attacks, and/or strokes in patients who have pre-diabetes and heart or blood vessel problems.
Diabetes is a major non communicable chronic diseases in the world. It occupies the fourth or fifth leading cause of death in most high-income countries and there is strong evidence that has epidemic proportions in many developing countries, including Mexico. Like diabetes, prediabetes is associated with obesity and insulin resistance, thus promoting a lifestyle with healthy eating and physical activity can reduce weight and in turn the risk of diabetes. Several studies have shown that it is possible to prevent or delay the development of type 2 diabetes through a lifestyle intervention based on diet and physical activity. The National Diabetes Prevention Program is a study based on the Diabetes Prevention Program conducted in real-world conditions. It is known that the acculturation of some ethnic groups has led to the increase in certain chronic degenerative diseases due to increased associated risk factors. The rural Yaqui tribe has a high prevalence of overweight, obesity, high triglycerides and type 2 diabetes. In addition to the rural Yaqui tribe there is another settlement of this tribe in the city of Hermosillo Sonora. Information on the health of this ethnic group is limited, however, it is known that being seated in an urban setting with an obesogenic lifestyle, which has been shown to have serious health effects in other populations, suggesting a high prevalence chronic non-communicable diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes and hypertension at this ethnic group. The present study is a translational research clinical trial to evaluate the effectiveness of the National Diabetes Prevention Program to improve obesity parameters (weight, BMI, waist circumference) and increase physical activity in adults who are at risk of diabetes in the Yaqui tribe established in Hermosillo, Sonora.
