Filter by:To evaluate the effect of colesevelam on LDL levels and A1c in high-risk , dysglycemic South Asians (with diabetes, and/or with CAD and concomitant metabolic syndrome) whose LDL remains above target despite optimal statin use.
The primary hypothesis is to investigate whether a low calorie diet for 7 weeks followed by continuous lifestyle advice is an effective option to achieve an improvement in glucose control as measured by HbA1c after 52 and 104 weeks as compared to baseline values in obese type 2 diabetes patients on either tablet or insulin treatment. The secondary hypothesis is to investigate whether the weight reduction therapy also has significant impact on various anthropometric, clinical and metabolic parameters associated with obesity.
The ELISABET STUDY is across sectional Survey on a representative sample of two urban area conduct on a representative sample. The main objective of the project is to compare the prevalence of the obstructive ventilatory disorders (OVD) in the Urban Community of Dunkirk touched by the industrial pollution in relation to the one recovered in the Urban Community of Lille (CUDL) less industrialized.

The purpose this study investigate the effect of food on the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics and safety of CKD-519
The effects of consuming a sodium-bicarbonated mineral water rich in bicarbonate, sodium, chloride, lithium and silicon are studied in humans. The aim of this assay was to determine whether the consumption of this water as part of the usual diet, reduces cardiometabolic risk factors in adult men and women.
The prevention and control of lifestyle-related non-communicable chronic diseases, including diabetes, obesity and cardiovascular disorders, that share common risk factors, has now become a major focus of the World Health Organization. Lifestyle modification, like improvement of diet, physical activity and tobacco cessation, is the corner stone of diabetes and cardio-metabolic chronic diseases (CMCD) prevention and management. Under the leadership of decision-makers of our regional health Agency in order to improve accessibility and quality of care, our team has collaborated to the development and implementation of an integrated care framework for the prevention and management of cardio-metabolic chronic diseases in primary care. This new care framework is currently being implemented in the context of community health centers (fall 2014) and family medicine groups (spring 2015), with the support of a Quebec Ministry of Health grant. The current research proposal aims to evaluate the implementation of this new care framework and explore its impact in the primary care context. This project is very important as it will generate knowledge on new models of care integrating preventive and management interventions in primary care settings, in continuum with specialized health care services and their implementation in an entire region.
Basic treatment of type 2 diabetes should focus on diet, physical activity and lifestyle. Nevertheless, in early and late stage of T2DM, lifestyle intervention is mostly substituted by pharmacological intervention, although lifestyle modification and dietary treatment would be favourable. The researchers therefore investigate dietary strategies such as low-carb and very-low calory diets regarding their potential to improve metabolism and body weight in (mostly) long-term T2DM patients.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of a healthy-habits intervention tailored to the cultural, economical and social context of the target population in cardiometabolic parameters, for a population with no access to specialized health services. The intervention was designed considering environmental and economic context like availability of food and physical activity spaces; cultural factors like social and culinary traditions; individual food preferences. It encompass a selected set of behavioral and nutritional strategies aiming to achieve control of metabolic disorders involved and to reduce the risk for diabetes. The investigators' study is a nine-month clinical intervention with randomized allocation, and parallel assignment. For the first six months, the participants in the control group will receive the treatment from the primary care service by the Health Minister as implemented by the local health center, and for the intervention group participants will receive a treatment to improve the quality of the diet and promote the practice of physical activity. Both groups will be reevaluated at third, sixth and ninth-months follow-up. The physician and the nutritionist of the study will be give the recommendations for diet and advice on exercise, mainly by suggesting moderate-intensity activity, such as brisk walks for at least 150 minutes/week.
Epidemiological data and studies in animal models suggest, that polyunsatured fatty acids (PUFA) rather than mono-unsatured fatty acids (MUFA) are associated with lower hepatic lipid content (HCL) and may facilitate a decrease of HCL in case of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The investigators therefore conduct an interventional trial in subjects with normal glucose metabolism, but increased HCL, fulfilling criteria for NAFLD. The study will compare two dietary interventions in parallel design, one containing mainly PUFA (canola oil), one containing only MUFA (olive oil). The intervention of 8 weeks is accomodated by dietary counseling. Metabolic outcome variables will be assessed with MR spectroscopy (liver fat) and euglycemic hepatic clamp (glucose metabolism/insulin sensitivity).
