Filter by:Certain types and timings of exercise are known to cause hyperglycemia (high blood glucose) in people with type 1 diabetes. Hyperglycemia increases the risk of most long-term complications for individuals with this complication. However, using insulin corrections to treat post-exercise hyperglycemia can increase the risk of late-onset hypoglycemia (low-blood glucose). Anaerobic activities performed in a fasted state are known to cause increases in blood glucose and post-exercise hyperglycemia in most individuals with type 1 diabetes. This study proposes to examine the effect of a ten-minute aerobic cool down after resistance exercise on the blood glucose response to fasted exercise of individuals with type 1 diabetes. It is hypothesized that adding a short aerobic cool down at the end of a fasted resistance exercise session will attenuate post-exercise increases in blood glucose observed in previous studies, leading to less post-exercise hyperglycemia.
The study purpose is to determine the effect of eating three (3) different pasta flour formulations made from 100% black beans (Zenith) in a meal matrix (spaghetti sauce) on postprandial glycemic response in healthy adults.
The two gut-derived hormones, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is secreted from intestinal cells in relation to a meal and increase insulin secretion from the pancreas. The hormones also exert effects outside the pancreas, but especially for GIP, these are poorly investigated. Because of this, only GLP-1 based drugs (GLP-1 receptor agonists) are on the market for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. Nonetheless, a new drug is in clinical development: a combined GIP-GLP-1-receptor agonist (tirzepatide), which has shown better results than GLP-1 alone. The mechanism behind these impressive effects are unknown and in this study, the investigators will look into the exptrapancreatic effects of GIP and GLP-1, separate and combined and thus elucidate the mechanisms of action of this new drug class.
Diet and nutrition are key to maintain human health. Westlake N-of-1 Trials for Macronutrient Intake (WE-MACNUTR) trial investigates individualized postprandial glycemic responses to different proportions of dietary fat and carbohydrates intake using an n-of-1 experimental study design. The experimental diets are isocaloric high fat, low carbohydrate (HF-LC) or low fat, high carbohydrate (LF-HC). With standardized intervention and strictly controlled eating behaviors, the WE-MACNUTR study identifies specific HC-responders and HF-responders in terms of postprandial glucose response. This is a follow-up study offered to participants who have completed the WE-MACNUTR study in 2019. Volunteers will be asked to participate in four 5-d periods while wearing glucose monitors (Abbott Freestyle Libre) with the following experimental sequence: 1) a washout diet, 2) HF-LC or LC-HF diet, 3) a washout diet, 4) HF-LC or LC-HF diet. The experimental diet will be randomly assigned. Participants will be asked to provide a fasted blood sample and to collect fecal, urine and saliva samples at each visits.
Background: Hyperglycemia is a risk factor to disease development, namely, diabetes mellitus. The blood glucose level management, particularly on post-prandial period has an important role in the prevention of different diseases. Ginger is a specie that has been demonstrated a benefit effect on glycaemia on diabetes. Aim: The aim of this study was 1) to investigate the effects of ginger infusion in the glycaemic response in nondiabetic adults; 2) to evaluate total phenolic content the antioxidant activity of Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) aqueous extracts. Methodology: 24 nondiabetic subjects were randomly allocated into two groups: intervention group (GI; n=15) and control group (GC; n=15). An oral glucose solution (OGTT) and an OGTT following ginger extract solution were administrated in control and intervention groups, respectively. Blood glucose levels were measurement at fasting and after 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after interventions in both groups. Total phenolic content and flavonoids compounds determination of the aqueous ginger extract was determined according to Prabha method. Antioxidant activity was also measured through ABTS method and free radicals inhibition capacity. Repeated Measures ANOVA of mixed type and independent samples t-test were used in statistical analysis.
A pilot study titled "A Virtual Cardiometabolic Health Program for African Immigrants (The Afro-DPP Program) will be conducted to address the cardiometabolic of community-dwelling African immigrants who have multiple cardiometabolic risk factors including hypertension, Type 2 Diabetes, high cholesterol, and overweight/obesity. The proposed study will recruit a total of 60 participants and will use a non-equivalent control group design to test the effectiveness of the intervention at two African churches in the Baltimore, Washington, D.C. area. The two churches will be randomly assigned to the intervention or delayed intervention group. At the end of a 6-month follow-up period, the control church will receive the intervention (delayed control group). All participants will receive a Bluetooth-enabled digital scale (Omron Model: BCM-500) that measures body composition including Body Weight, Body Fat percentage, Visceral Fat, Skeletal Muscle percentage, Resting Metabolism and Body Mass Index. A Bluetooth-enabled blood pressure monitor (Omron Model: BP7250) will also be distributed to all participants. All participants will download the Omron Connect app which will allow the participants to sync participants' blood pressure readings and body composition readings into the app. The research team will access these readings to monitor study outcomes and participants progress during the follow-up period.
Baobab fruits have been traditionally used in Africa due to its therapeutic proprieties attributed to it high polyphenol content. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of baobab fruit on postprandial glycaemia on healthy adults and to measure its bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity. The study was conducted on 31 healthy subjects. The participants were randomly allocated in control group (oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT); n = 16) and in intervention group (OGTT followed by administration of 250 ml baobab aqueous extract (BAE); n = 15). Total phenols, proanthocyanidins, hydrolysable tannins and antioxidant activity (FRAP, DPPH, ABTS and inhibition of O2•- and NO• methods) were quantified. Repeated Measures ANOVA of mixed type and Independent samples t-test were used.
This study will investigate whether or not it is feasible to closely monitor and manage glucose levels in people with pancreatic cancer. It will also investigate what impact glucose management may have on pancreatic cancer. This is a pilot study that will use continuous glucose monitors (CGM) to monitor glucose levels in approximately 50 participants with pancreatic cancer. Participants will receive standard chemotherapy with a combination of up to four drugs to treat their pancreatic cancer: oxaliplatin, irinotecan, 5-fluorouracil, and leucovorin (FOLFIRINOX). To treat high glucose levels, participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: Group 1 will receive anti-hyperglycemic treatment as guided by an endocrinologist with the aim of maintaining glucose levels between 4 and 10 mmol/L; Group 2 will receive anti-hyperglycemic treatment if their glucose levels are above 15 mmol/L, which is standard care. Participants in both Groups 1 and 2 will receive standard anti-hyperglycemic treatments: metformin, insulin, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, sodium glucose co-transporter (SGLT2) inhibitors, and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors. After 4 cycles of FOLFIRINOX, the CGM will be removed but any anti-hyperglycemic treatments will continue as needed. If participants discontinue treatment with FOLFIRINOX, they will continue to be followed for survival and subsequent anti-cancer therapy and will continue follow-up for glucose-related concerns at the discretion of their endocrinologist and/or medical oncologist.
