Filter by:The objective of this study is to assess the effects of Hass Avocados on glycemic control. The investigators hypothesize that Hass Avocado consumption will reduce fasting blood sugar compared to an isocaloric amount of other fruit during controlled feeding.
The purpose of this Phase 1 research study is to answer two questions: (1) How frequent should periods of prolonged sedentary time be interrupted? and (2) What is the appropriate duration or length of time of these breaks in sedentary time? To address these questions, this project will conduct a state-of-the-art adaptive dose finding study under controlled laboratory conditions to determine the minimally effective dose (the smallest dose) that yields cardiometabolic benefit for two separate sedentary break elements (frequency and duration). Study findings will ultimately determine how often and for how long people should break up periods of prolonged sedentary time to transiently improve established cardiovascular risk factors; key foundational information critical to the success of future long-term trials and ultimately public health guidelines. Primary Aim: To determine the minimally effective dose combination(s) of frequency and duration needed to provide cardiometabolic benefit during an 8-hour experimentation period. Specifically, the study will determine: 1a. For each fixed duration, the minimum sedentary break frequency (e.g., every 30 min, 60 min, 120 min) that demonstrates a reduction in systolic BP, diastolic BP, or glucose compared with a sedentary control condition. 1b. For each fixed frequency, the minimum sedentary break duration (e.g., activity breaks of 1 min, 5 min, 10 min) that demonstrates a reduction in systolic BP, diastolic BP, or glucose compared with a sedentary control. Secondary Aim: It is also critical to public health strategy to assess the acceptability/feasibility of various sedentary break doses as too high a dose will yield poor uptake. To address this need, the maximally tolerated dose (the highest dose that does not cause undue physical/psychological distress) for frequency and duration of sedentary breaks will also be determined via assessment of 4 constructs: physical exhaustion/fatigue, affect (e.g., mood, emotion), tolerability (e.g., completion of dose protocol), and safety (e.g., hypoglycemia). Maximally tolerated dose will be defined as the highest dose where <20% of participants exhibit an adverse outcome.
This is an open label, interventional, monocentric, prospective early feasibility study, designed to evaluate the safety of implant and short-term integration into the tissue of the YANG sensor. In addition, the set up will enable data collection which will be used to develop the software algorithm to allow real-time, continuous measurement of glucose, ketone and lactate levels in the interstitial fluid in adults with diabetes mellitus, in a future version of the device.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a flash glucose monitor device in achieving optimal glycemic control among adults with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled with non-insulin antihyperglycemic therapy.
This study utilizes infusions of kisspeptin in healthy women to isolate the impact of kisspeptin on beta-cell responsivity assessed by the mixed meal tolerance test.
As a phase 0 clinical trial, we will learn how kombucha influences glucose metabolism in humans.
This project aims to test the impact of melatonin and MTNR1B variation on regulation glucose regulation in a highly controlled in-laboratory setting and ex vivo in pancreatic islets.
The purpose of the study is to examine the effect of chia seed consumption on body composition, blood pressure, blood glucose, satiety, mood, joint pain, and dietary displacement in overweight and obese females (18-45years). It is hypothesized that consuming chia seeds will bring about a positive change in body composition (lower % body fat), satiety, mood, joint pain, and blood pressure, lower blood glucose levels, increased fiber and improved nutrient intake, in overweight/ obese females.
This project aims to test the impact of melatonin and MTNR1B variation on regulation glucose regulation in a highly controlled in-laboratory setting and ex vivo in pancreatic islets.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether acute bouts of sedentary behaviour (with or without breaks and/or structured physical activity) result in measurable changes in metabolic health in children and youth.
