Filter by:The objective of this trial is to investigate the effect of early treatment of glucose toxicity with acarbose, a drug to control postprandial hyperglycemia, on the occurence of cardiovascular events and the inhibition of atherosclerosis.
Subjects with impaired glucose tolerance will be randomized to either rosiglitazone or placebo for a 18 month period. The study will look at baseline, 12 month and 18 month data for exercise tolerance, coronary artery calcification and diabetes indicators.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether therapeutic intervention on impaired glucose tolerance in patients with coronary heart disease can decrease the incidence of new onset DM.
Many adipokines are thought that related with metabolic disturbance such as glucose intolerance, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance. It is reported that regular physical training could prevent the progression of diabetes from prediabetes and improve the insulin resistance. After physical training, many adipokine levels were changed due to improving insulin resistance. In this study, we will examine the various adipokine levels such as adiponectin, RBP-4, and adrenomedullin after exercise training through exercise prescription in IFG and IGT patients.
To understand if acarbose, an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor usually for treating diabetes, will further lower post meal glucose and inflammatory state when taking together with moderate amount of alcohol during meal tolerance test in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance or mild diabetes.
Glucose intolerance is frequent and serious complication of corticosteroid therapy. the aim of the study is to examine the hypothesis that co treatment with rosiglitazone can prevent glucose intolerance in patients treated with corticosteroids.
The prevalence of obesity in children is reaching epidemic proportions. Excess adiposity is more than just a cosmetic problem, having substantial metabolic consequences. Insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, impaired glucose tolerance, and frank diabetes are often seen in obese children. In this study the prevalence of impaired glucose (carbohydrate) tolerance in lean children with a family history of diabetes and obese children with acanthosis nigricans with or without a family history of diabetes mellitus will be studied.
