Filter by:Low birth weight (LBW), a marker of impaired fetal growth is an independent and strong risk factor for type 2 diabetes (T2D). A western lifestyle characterized by a surplus of calories, and/or a low physical activity level, associated with increased fat storage and altered lipid metabolism plays a central role in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance and T2D. Using state-of-the-art large-scale integrative physiology studies combined with basic studies of adipose and muscle tissue stem cell functions, the investigators aim to determine if LBW individuals exhibit decreased subcutaneous adipose tissue expandability, postprandial hyperlipidaemia and ectopic fat accumulation when exposed to 4 weeks of carbohydrate overfeeding. The investigators will subsequently examine if exercise training can revert and/or minimize the deleterious effects of carbohydrate overfeeding in a possibly birth weight differential manner.
The project proposes to provide the Complete Health Improvement Program (CHIP) initially up to 25 adult (non-pregnant) Ohio University employees (and/ or their adult family members) with with diabetes / prediabetes, obesity / overweight, hypertension / prehypertension, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, or dyslipidemia in an effort to improve self-management and the consequences of biometric factors that can be modified by lifestyle changes. The CHIP program is an educationally based, lifestyle intervention program that aims to reduce healthcare cost, absenteeism, and increase employee productivity. The investigators expect that participants following the programs guidelines will lower their body mass index, cholesterol, reduce blood pressure and blood glucose levels, and therefore help to prevent chronic disease.
A multicenter, double-blind, parallel-group, active-controlled, dose-ranging study to assess the safety and efficacy of the novel cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitor CKD-519 in combination with atorvastatin or rosuvastatin in subjects with dyslipidemia.
Animal studies have found that vitamin K-dependent proteins matrix Gla protein and osteocalcin beneficially influence lipid and glucose metabolism, respectively. However, this concept has not been tested in humans at risk for dyslipidemia and diabetes risk. Vitamin K supplementation presents an opportunity to test the hypothesized link between the vitamin K-dependent proteins and markers of lipid and glucose metabolism. The investigators will conduct an 8-week vitamin K intervention (to manipulate carboxylation of matrix Gla protein and osteocalcin) and determine its effects on markers of dyslipidemia and diabetes risk. Sixty obese children will be randomly allocated to either the control group receiving placebo or the low-dose (45 mcg/d) or high-dose group (90 mcg/d) receiving vitamin K (menaquinone-7).
This trial of pitavastatin will determine efficacy and safety in this high risk population and provide evidence for clinicians to target this treatable risk factor to achieve an impact on early atherosclerosis, and potentially achieve primary prevention of adult cardiovascular disease.
A Multi-center, Randomized, double-blind, active-controlled, phase 3 trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Metformin/Atorvastatin in subjects with Type II Diabetes and dyslipidemia.
This study is a Phase 3, double blind, placebo controlled, randomized, stratified, parallel group, multi-center clinical trial designed to compare the efficacy and safety of bococizumab 150 mg SC Q2wks to placebo for LDL-C lowering in subjects with primary hyperlipidemia or mixed dyslipidemia at high or very high risk for CV events. The study will enroll a total of approximately 750 subjects from 4 - 5 Asian countries/areas (including China mainland); of which approximately 600 subjects will be from sites in China. Subjects will be randomized into a bococizumab treatment arm and a placebo arm in a 1:1 ratio.
A 12-Week, Phase 2 Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Assess the Efficacy Safety and Tolerability of Gemcabene in Subjects with Severe Hypertriglyceridemia (INDIGO-1)
The investigators evaluated dietary modulation of LIPC rs1800588 (-514 C/T) for lipids and glucose using a randomized cross-over design comparing a high-fat Western diet and a low-fat traditional Hispanic diet in Caribbean Hispanics (n=42; 4 weeks/phase).
A non-randomized, two-arm, single-sequence, crossover, open label, multiple oral dosing clinical trial to evaluate the safety and the pharmacokinetic drug-drug interaction of Telmisartan/Amlodipine and Rosuvastatin in healthy male volunteers
