Filter by:A double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, single-ascending and multiple-ascending dose trial to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of oral controlled-ileal-release nicotinic acid (CIR-NA) compared to immediate-release nicotinic acid and placebo in healthy subjects and subjects with prediabetes.
People living with prediabetes are advised to lose weight to prevent development of type 2 diabetes by participating in intensive lifestyle interventions (ILI's), such as PreventT2. The PreventT2 program focuses on a low-calorie diet for weight loss. However, many people find it difficult to stick to a low-calorie diet over the long-term. The identification of novel, effective and individualized dietary strategies to produce long-term weight loss is critically important in diabetes prevention. An ILI based on PreventT2 which considers individual preferences, allowing participants to choose among a variety of diets, may result in greater adherence to the diet than a standard PreventT2 intervention. ILIs also need to be available to individuals in a wide range of communities, including Americans living in rural communities, who experience higher rates of obesity and chronic disease, yet have less access to medical care, including programs for diabetes prevention. The investigators plan to develop and carry out a 16-week pilot and feasibility study of a group-based ILI program based on PreventT2 plus choice of dietary strategy (Prevention and Choice for Type2 , PACT2) delivered via videoconference to adults with prediabetes living in rural communities. Successful completion of this project will result in the refinement of an ILI that incorporates personal preferences and is tailored to individuals at high risk for type 2 diabetes living in rural areas where access to such interventions is limited.
The primary aim of this study is to evaluate if a single bout of AM vs PM resistance exercise has different effects on insulin sensitivity and sleep. A randomized cross-over trial be used to compare resistance exercise at two different times of the day. Each condition will take place in a laboratory setting. Each condition will consist of exercise, overnight sleep, and oral glucose tolerance tests the following day. The AM exercise will occur ~1.5 hours after habitual wake, and PM exercise will occur ~11 hours after habitual wake. After a 2-6 week washout, participants will complete the other condition. The hypothesis is that PM exercise will be more beneficial than AM exercise in improving insulin sensitivity. This study could identify if there is a better time of day to perform resistance exercise to decrease risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
Approximately 92 million U.S. adults (~38% of population) have prediabetes (PreD). Because people with PreD are at high risk CMD, they are a target population for diabetes prevention programs. The focus is people with PreD because of their high risk for developing CMD and large numbers, providing an opportunity to investigate behavioral and environmental approaches as preventive measures in a well-defined population. Urbanization affords challenges and opportunities to public health that include exposure to obesogenic environments, air pollution, and psychosocial stressors. In healthy adults suggest exposure to nature has health benefits relative to exposure to built environments. Hypothesized mechanisms for health benefits of Greenspace exposure include increased physical activity (PA), attention restoration, stress reduction, and reduced exposure to pollution. Many of the health benefits are associated with reduced psychological and physiological stress leading to better autonomic functioning as assessed by heart rate variability (HRV) and other biomarkers. Multiple studies suggest that PA and exposure to natural environments may act together to improve health. Yet, aside from our preliminary studies, we are not aware of any studies that examined how physical activity may interact with exposure to urban Greenspace ('Green') compared with built urban environments ('Gray'), to reduce stress and improve health. The purpose of this proposed study is to conduct a randomized crossover trial comparing differences in the psychosocial and physiological effects of walking in urban Green and Gray spaces in adults with PreD.
The clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture on weight loss and changes of glucose and lipid metabolism in obese adults with pre-diabetes.
The purpose of this study; To investigate the effects of Clinical Pilates and Tai Chi exercises on glycemic control, body composition, balance function and physical activity level in individuals with prediabetes.
With the aging of population and the change of lifestyle, the prevalence of prediabetes is increasing year by year. Nutritional factors are one of the important environmental factors in the occurrence and development of abnormal glucose metabolism. The medical nutritional treatment of diabetes is recommended as the cornerstone of diabetes treatment by various guidelines. With the development of nutrigenomics, it has been found that genes related to the absorption, metabolism, distribution and excretion of various nutrients are related to diabetes. This study intends to conduct precision nutrition intervention for prediabetic patients based on nutritional genes, and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of these nutritional interventions.
Epidemiological studies have shown an inverse association between coffee consumption and risk of type 2 diabetes. However, the randomized controlled trials in prediabetes are limited to evaluate the effects of coffee. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of coffee on metabolic factors and inflammation in individuals with prediabetes and obesity. A double-blind, randomized controlled trial is designed to explore the effects of coffee consumption on participants with prediabetes and obesity. A total of 100 eligible participants with prediabetes and obesity will be recruited from the Health Management Center of Nanjing First Hospital. These participants are randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either the coffee capsule group or the control group. The coffee capsule group will be instructed to consume 3.6 g of coffee capsules per day (0.3 g per capsule, 6 capsules per serving, twice a day, once in the morning and once in the middle of the day). The control group will be asked to consume 3.6 g of cornstarch capsules (0.3 g per capsule, 6 capsules per serving, twice a day, once in the morning and once in the middle of the day). 75 g oral glucose tolerance test, 2-week blinded continuous glucose measurement and others will be performed before and after the 3-month intervention. During the three months of intervention, the information on dietary intake, physical activity and sleep of participants will be systematically collected. To comprehensively assess the impact of coffee intake on prediabetes and obesity, we will analyze the effects of coffee capsules on various metabolic and inflammatory markers, including glucose metabolism, lipid profiles, blood pressure, adiponectin, high sensitivity C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, body mass index, body composition, the degree of hepatic steatosis and so on. We will further adjust for potential confounding factors such as lifestyle factors to better understand the underlying biological mechanisms driving this association.
The objective of the study is to determine the effect of dairy product matrices on insulin sensitivity in overweight and obese adults with prediabetes. Females and males (30-65 y) will be recruited from the greater Montreal area. Upon screening, those with prediabetes will complete a 2-wk run-in period in which participants will consume 1 serving/d of regular-fat dairy products (milk, yogurt, or cheese). Adherent participants will be randomized by sex into 1 of 3 groups: ≤1 serving/d of dairy (limited dairy) or 2-3 servings/d of reduced-fat or regular-fat dairy for 12 weeks. Participants will be instructed on how to incorporate foods into their diet to prevent changes in their body weight. The hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp will be used before and after the intervention to document potential changes in insulin sensitivity as the primary outcome. In addition, glycemic variables, body composition, and cardiometabolic risk factors will be assessed as secondary outcomes. Adherence to intervention will be assessed at each visit by food diaries and a record of consumed dairy products.
When linking dietary interventions and blood glucose management, much of the existing research - particularly studies exploring the effects of vinegar - has relied on discrete readings from the conventional testing methods: blood samples or glucometers. These methods lack the capacity to provide insights into blood glucose dynamics 24/7. Recognizing this gap, the current study aims to utilize continuous glucose monitoring to examine the impact of daily vinegar ingestion on glucose variability in adults identified as glucose intolerant.
