Filter by:Proof of concept, of RYGBP and its capabilities to cure type 2 diabetes (DM 2) and sleep apnea has already been recognized in the reports on weight loss surgery. The investigators project aims to prove that RYGBP also recovers the beta cell function (BCF) Clamp tests, the gold standard for testing IS and BCF, will be performed preoperative and early postoperatively. Aims & methodology: Analysis of the short-term effect of gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy on insulin sensitivity and beta cell function. Preoperative baseline insulin sensitivity and beta cell function will be assessed with euglycemic and hyperglycemic clamp tests. These results will be compared with the results of the same tests carried out 3 weeks postoperative. To determine if the duodenal exclusion is causing this effect. The results of the clamp tests 3 weeks postoperative will be compared
The objective of this randomized controlled trial was to evaluate the effects of two different physical exercise programs aimed at long-term lifestyle changes in physical activity in patients with Type 2 Diabetes, with glucose metabolism evaluated by HbA1c as the primary outcome.
This study was conducted to test the possibility of preventing or delaying the development of type 2 diabetes in individuals with impaired glucose tolerance and elevated fasting plasma glucose concentrations by internet-based diabetes prevention program.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Self Monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG) for clinical decisions related to the management of type 2 diabetes and to determine the benefit of using Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) for clinical diabetes management.
Diabetes and Heart Failure are diseases with high morbidity and increased risk of death. Former investigations has shown that diabetes worsens the prognosis of heart failure. However it is uncertain how short term diabetic dysregulation in type 2 diabetics affect cardiac function. Our hypothesis is that short term dysregulation affects left ventricular function and exercise capacity in insulin treated type 2 diabetics with and without heart failure. To elucidate this hypothesis diabetic patients with and without heart failure will be investigated after overnight state of either high or normal blood glucose levels on two separate occasions. Metabolic and hormonal parameters will be measured. Systolic and diastolic cardiac function will be assessed, exercise capacity and post exercise regional myocardial tissue velocity as well as 6 minutes walk test will be investigated on both occasions. The study will be a randomized cross-over design.
The study was conducted 1. to investigate the superiority of isomaltulose in reduction of postprandial hyperglycemia 2. to describe the kinetics of glucose absorption after a load of isomaltulose 3. to demonstrate the safety of a single load of isomaltulose compared to sucrose in type 2 diabetic patients.
The purpose of the study is to assess the effectiveness of motivational interviewing in promoting maintenance of physical activity in people with Type 2 diabetes (T2D) upon the completion of a structured exercise program. Participants with T2D who are new graduates of a supervised exercise program will be randomly assigned to either standard care (SC) or to standard care and in addition, participate in two individual motivational interview (MI) sessions (SC + MI). The primary outcome will be change in physical activity behavior assessed by the Godin Leisure and Exercise questionnaire. Secondary outcomes will include change in blood glucose control (A1C), BMI, six minute walk-test, QoL, and self-efficacy. Outcomes will be measured in groups at baseline, end of program, 3 months and 6 months post-program.
A low glycemic index diet may improve glycemic control and reduce plaque buildup in arteries of those with type 2 diabetes. Subjects will be randomly assigned to receive dietary advice on either a low glycemic index diet, or a high cereal fibre diet, for three years.
Healthy individuals with type 2 diabetes will receive intensive counseling on food selection to improve glucose control using either high cereal fiber dietary strategies or low glycemic index foods emphasizing dried legumes and their products. The treatments will last 3 months with bloods taken for HbA1c, glucose and blood lipids. If the study shows a benefit for either or both diets, then use of high fiber and/or low glycemic index foods in the diet may provide another potential way to improve glucose control and lower cholesterol levels in non-insulin dependent diabetes.
Chronically elevated free fatty acids impair insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion (ie lipotoxicity) by a combination of oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and inflammation. This study will test whether alpha-lipoic acid, which has potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, prevents or ameliorates lipotoxicity.
