Filter by:The objective of this randomized cross-over design was to investigate the fetal well-being and maternal glycemic response to an acute bout of aerobic high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) with pregnant individuals.
This study aims to assess the impact of speed of consumption of two starch-based foods varying in fibre content on blood glucose levels in normal healthy subjects. Furthermore, the mediating roles of salivary amylase and particle size on blood glucose levels will be studied. The study has a randomized cross-over design. Subjects consume two test-lunches (chick peas and brown rice) in duplicate on 8 different test days, at either long or short chewing duration. Glucose responses will be monitored via a continuous glucose monitoring device and expectorated boluses will be collected during each test day for assessments of amylase activity and food particle size.
Systematic continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is commonly provided as a treatment option to patients with diabetes in ambulatory care settings yet is rarely provided during hospitalization. CGM of inpatients has the potential to be the care delivery innovation that is feasible, cost effective and can improve glucose control, especially by reducing hypoglycemic events. Studies of CGM use in the ICU setting have been found to be helpful for reducing hypoglycemia in some studies while less so in others, however, these studies were performed with earlier generation glucose monitoring devices(5). ICU studies have confirmed accuracy of CGM measurements compared with capillary glucose even in settings with use of vasopressors and large-volume resuscitation. A limited number of studies have evaluated glycemic outcomes in the inpatient non-ICU setting. Studies of non-ICU patients (6-10) are limited by very small sample size, short study duration, and use of older CGM devices. There is, therefore, a critical need to systematically investigate the use of CGM in the inpatient care of patients with diabetes mellitus who are receiving care in a hospital setting that is typical of inpatient care.
Prior to caesarean section, patients should fast from solid food for 6 hours and from clear fluids for 2 hours. Carbohydrate drinks can also be consumed up to 2 hours before surgery. These drinks have been shown to improve patient well-being after surgery and may potentially improve the neonatal blood glucose level after delivery and reduce the risk of a low blood glucose level. This study aims to assess the influence of pre-operative carbohydrate drinks on blood glucose levels of the baby at delivery.
Non-caloric sweeteners are common food supplements consumed by millions worldwide as means of combating weight gain and diabetes, by retaining sweet taste without increasing caloric intake. While they are considered safe, there is increasing debate regarding their potential role in contributing to metabolic derangements in some humans. The investigators recently demonstrated that non-caloric sweeteners consumption could induce glucose intolerance in mice and, in preliminary experiments, in distinct human subsets, by functionally altering the gut microbiome, and that the gut microbiome plays an important role in mediating differential glucose responses to identical foods. The proportion of the human population that is susceptible to glucose intolerance induced by non-caloric sweeteners, the common factors that are shared between these individuals and whether and how the microbiome promotes the metabolic derangements remain to be addressed.
The objective of this study is to test two different operating modes of the latest version of the Dose Safety artificial pancreas system (APS), the Dose Safety Controller (DSC version 2.3), in a population of subjects with type 1 diabetes (TID) in a hospital CRC setting. The first mode is the Fully Automated Closed Loop (FACL) mode, in which all insulin delivery is directed by the controller and the second mode is the Hybrid Closed Loop (HCL) mode, in which insulin delivery is a hybrid between controller directed delivery and user directed insulin delivery. There will be two study arms: HCL and FACL. No comparisons will be made between the two arms.
This study provides participants with two diets that vary in their glycaemic index values (low vs. high), whilst also measuring cognitive performance and mood.
This study provided 24 healthy subjects with two diets that varied in their glycaemic index values. One condition was a low GI diet, whilst the other was a high GI diet. Glucose concentrations and mood were measured throughout each test day.
This randomized, double-blind, comparator controlled trial evaluated the blood glucose and insulin responses in healthy adults, after consuming a high fiber or low fiber muffin top.
