Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of mulberry leaf extract on blood glucose in subjects with impaired fasting glucose.
Honey has been used as a sweetener for centuries. Recent data indicate that honey consumption may have beneficial effects upon glucose intolerance, a health issue currently affecting 57 million Americans of every age and ethnicity. In order to evaluate the glycemic effect of honey, the investigators will carry out a human trial assessing biomarkers of blood glucose responses, insulin sensitivity, oxidative stress, and inflammatory markers. Our primary objective is to determine the glycemic effects of honey in comparison to sucrose and high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). The investigators hypothesize that honey will promote improved glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity compared to both sucrose and high fructose corn syrup in normal glycemic and glucose intolerant adults.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of the DE-PLAN Euskadi program for the primary prevention of type-II diabetes in high-risk population seen in primary care centers (Osakidetza-Basque Health Service) in which such intervention is implemented, compared to usual care control centers.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether treating pre-diabetic & pre-hypertensive individuals using multiple drugs intervention (anti-hypertensive drugs (i.e., ACEI) plus anti-glycemic drug (i.e., metformin) plus anti-hyperlipidemic drug (statin)) would lower Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) events.
Development of New-Onset Diabetes after Transplantation (NODAT) is common and serious complication after kidney transplantation. Patients who develop NODAT are at increased risk for loss of the transplanted organ and for diseases of the cardiovascular system. It is believed that in many patients the development of overt NODAT is preceded by a phase of impaired glucose tolerance that is called pre-diabetes. This study aims at improving glucose metabolism in patients after kidney transplantation who are in a pre-diabetic metabolic state. Patients who exhibit impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) after kidney transplantation are randomized to either receive vildagliptin (Galvus), pioglitazone(Actos) or placebo for three months. The investigators hypothesize that treatment with vildagliptin or pioglitazone leads to improved glycemic control compared to placebo.
The goal of the present research is to compare the effects of treatment with metformin and sitagliptin, alone or in association, in women with previous gestational diabetes to evaluate the impact of the two drugs on beta-cell function. The study results may contribute to give a rational approach for future investigations.
The purpose of this study is to determine the short-term effects of the antimalarial medication, hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), compared with placebo using frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance testing (FSIGTT) methodology to study changes in insulin secretion and glucose tolerance in subjects at risk for developing Type 2 diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether water-soluble cinnamon extract plus aggressive lifestyle intervention is effective in lowering blood glucose in pre-diabetic patients when compared to aggressive lifestyle therapy plus placebo.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of pre-diabetes and diabetes among those Air Force personnel who have not passed the Air Force physical fitness test (AFPT) and to evaluate the usefulness of the AFPT as a prescreening tool for these disease processes.
The Insulin Sensitivity using Aerobic Interval Conditioning (ISAIC) trial will compare traditional aerobic training (AER) to interval training (INT) in sedentary, overweight/obese men at risk for pre-diabetes. The investigators will randomly assign 42 individuals to 3 months of monitored exercise using a randomly assisgned design where participants will exercise under either AER or INT training conditions. The AER training condition will be consistent with "standard-of-care" recommendations. Exercise training will entail one 3-month blocks of either AER or INT. Training will consist of 1) a 1-month ramp up period, 2) 1-month of traditional aerobic training and 3) 1-month of either continued AER or INT.
