Filter by:This study will investigate whether real-time continuous glucose monitoring can be used as a tool for behavior change in people with pre-diabetes.
Assessment of glucose metabolism and liver fat after 12 week dietary intervention in pre diabetes subjects. Subjects will be randomized to either high fat (olive oil supplemented),high carb/high fiber (beans supplemented) and high carb/low fiber diets. Glucose metabolism will be assessed by labeled oral glucose tolerance test and liver fat by magnetic resonance spectroscopy pre randomization and at 8 and 12 week after starting dietary intervention.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of a worksite lifestyle intervention for diabetes prevention among employees with prediabetes.
Objective of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of administration of herbal supplements (Salacia leaf extract, Salacia root extract and Sesame seed extract) for 6 weeks in the management of prediabetes and mild to moderate hyperlipidemia.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a multi-component remote care model (telephone-based) is effective to achieve the modification of unhealthy eating practices and increase physical activity in adults who have prediabetes and over-weight/obesity. The effectiveness of the remote care model will be determined with respect to the mentioned practices as well as anthropometric parameters (Waist circumference and Weight) and clinical parameters (Fasting Glucose, Triglycerides, Total Cholesterol) which are sensitive to changes in these habits. The counseling intervention is the core of the multi-component tele-care model, which also includes counseling-through text messages, supply of Educational material and self-monitoring equipment (pedometers and measuring tape for patients to check their waist circumference).
A multi-year clinical study to improve tools for measuring the function of insulin-producing beta cells in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
To examine whether a lifestyle program results in weight loss and thereby delays or prevents progression of pre-diabetes to diabetes, we propose a pilot randomized controlled trial of 6 weeks duration with 30 participants held at Stephanie Tubbs Jones Health Center. Participants are randomized to receive all of the following: nutrition education, exercise instruction, stress management instruction, and culinary education or follow usual care. Outcomes include: blood sugars and cholesterol, weight, waist circumference, blood pressure, diet, physical activity, perceived stress, and class attendance. Analysis is by Intention to treat analysis of variance. Results will be used to help design larger randomized trial in the future.
The study will evaluate the effects of resveratrol/leucine and resveratrol/HMB for their ability to control glucose levels in persons without diabetes but with impaired fasting glucose. Secondary assessments will examine the effect of these nutritional supplements versus placebo on inflammation, fasting lipids, HbA1C, and fructosamine, longer term metabolic markers of risk in diabetes.
This research study will examine brain glucose metabolism after an overnight fast to determine the effect of exenatide on brain glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism.
In this proposal,the investigators will examine whether the selectivity of eplerenone for the MR will translate into a better glucose and metabolic profile compare to spironolactone in patients with HF with glucose intolerance or type 2 diabetes. In addition, the investigators will also compare the impact of these two agents on changes of concentrations of established prognostic biomarkers of neurohormonal activation and extracellular matrix turnover.
