Filter by:The Worksite Nutrition Study is 22-week translational study aimed at determining how well a worksite-based nutrition program, as compared to a control group, is able to 1) produce clinically significant weight-loss, 2) improve cardiovascular factors, 3) decrease work absenteeism, 4) improve overall quality of life, 5) improve diabetes control in participants with diabetes, and 6) promote dietary adherence and acceptability. The nutrition program for the intervention group consists of once-weekly group meetings where participants will receive group support and nutrition education on a low-fat, vegan diet.
This study intends to evaluate how safe and well tolerated the LY2405319 compound is when given to people for 7 days (in Part 1) and 28 days (in Part 2). This study intends to also determine if there is a positive effect on lowering the level of glucose in people with type 2 diabetes.
In this study, we tested the hypothesis that elevated HGF is associated with insulin resistance and cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction in type 2 diabetic patients not receiving insulin treatment.
Diabetes with poor sugar control can lead to blindness, heart attacks, and amputations. Latinos are more at risk for diabetes. A fotonovela is a type of comic book commonly read by Latinos that might be a way to teach them about the risk of high sugars. The researchers will give patients either a fotonovela about diabetes or one with nothing to do with diabetes. Then they will compare how well sugars were controlled afterward in each group. This way they can see if these fotonovelas were useful.
Diabetes is associated with dyslipidaemia leading to generalized atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and nephropathy. Osteoprotegerin (OPG), a glycoprotein involved in bone homeostasis, has been implicated in the pathogenesis leading up vessel calcification. Furthermore, CVD in diabetics is associated with increased levels of OPG. Aim: To investigate whether low dose simvastatin treatment (10-20 mg/day) reduces circulating levels of OPG as well as adhesion molecules (VCAM-1; vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, ICAM; intercellular cell adhesion molecule).
The aim of this research will be to perform a small randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a new diabetes educational intervention that teaches self-management skills that compensate for poor numeracy skills among a sample of primary care patients with type 2 diabetes and low literacy and/or numeracy.
This study is designed to look at the effect sitagliptin has on tacrolimus and sirolimus drug levels in kidney transplant patients. It is also designed to look at the side effects experienced in the transplant population.
The goal of the proposed study, Health Benefits of Aerobic and Resistance Training in individuals with type 2 diabetes (HART-D), is to compare the effect of resistance training alone (RT), resistance in combination with aerobic training (AT+RT), and aerobic training alone (AT) to standard care (SC) on hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C), in initially sedentary women and men with type 2 diabetes (T2D).
HEALTHY was a primary prevention trial conducted in 42 middle schools at 7 locations across the US to impact risk factors for type 2 diabetes in adolescents. Students were recruited at start of 6th grade (fall 2006) and followed to end of 8th grade (spring 2009). Half of the schools were randomized to receive an intervention that integrated four components: the school nutrition environment, physical education class activities, behavior change initiatives, and educational and promotional communications activities.
The purpose of this study that when studies using our method of dosing adjustments driven by continuous glucose monitoring and because of the less variable glycemic effect of insulin detemir, insulin detemir treated subjects will spend a significantly greater time in the glucose target range than insulin glargine.
