Filter by:The study will be conducted in two phases; an in-patient meal study phase (Phase I) and an outpatient home study (Phase II). The two phase study design is chosen to enhance safety by testing the Afrezza Closed-Loop (CL) system in controlled in-clinic setting under study staff supervision before it could be investigated at the outpatient home setting. Phase II will not begin without the establishment of safety in Phase I.
First, it will be evaluated whether supplementation of eriocitrin reduces hyperglycemia and insulin resistance, significantly reducing the risk of diabetes. The effects of eriocitrin on the lipid profile, inflammatory, endothelial, hepatic and renal biomarkers will also be evaluated. It is expected that metabolic parameters that constitute risk factors for diabetes and associated chronic diseases are expected to be improved by supplementation with eriocitrin
The barriers faced by people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) begin in their mid to late 20s and often mirror the experiences of older adults (50+) living in the U.S. While evidence for successful population-specific health promotion programs and training, such as the 12-Week HealthMatters Program has been documented, an urgent need exists for continuous, readily available, on-demand training in these programs. Online training can substantially aid the widespread translation of evidence-based programs into practice and policy. This proposal seeks to test the effectiveness of an enhanced mode of translating the HealthMatters program into practice through the use of an on-demand e-Learning platform (HealthMatters@24/7) for staff in community based organizations (CBOs) in one state; thereby advancing the science of translational research. HO1. More CBOs in the asynchronous training program will have developed Strategic Action Plans for Health and Wellness, established Wellness Committees, and have equal or more resources and improved culture for health promotion at 1 year compared to CBOs participating in the current live HealthMatters TtT Workshop webinar. HO2. Staff in the asynchronous training group will have improved levels of learner/instructor satisfaction (job productivity, job performance, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, convenience) toward the training immediately after completing the enhanced mode of training, HM@24/7 compared to staff trained using the current live HealthMatters TtT Workshop webinar.
The study is going to include 20 adolescents, 5-10 years after onset of T1D, aged 12-20 years, on insulin pump. The participants are going to have MRI of the head in euglycaemic and hyperglycaemic state. During both MRI, the participants are going to preform Flanker test, Tower of London test and Spatial memory test. The investigators are going to evaluate the response of inflammation markers and oxidative stress marekers in blood during hypreglycaemia.
A randomized, double-blinded, single center, parallel design pediatric study, on 45 subjects with type 1 diabetes (T1D), aged six to 15 (inclusive) years, measuring sensor time in glucose values within range 3.9 - 10 mmol/l (70 - 180 mg/dl) achieved using the FreeStyle Libre Flash Glucose Monitoring System (FGM - intervention, Abbott Diabetes Care, California, USA) versus Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose (SMBG - control). Study duration will be two weeks per subject and two weeks overall, it will take place at youth summer camp for children with T1D. Main inclusion criteria include age of six to 15 (inclusive) years, clinical diagnosis of T1D for at least six months, at least three months of current use of insulin pump therapy, HbA1c between 6.3 and 10 % (both inclusive), no other chronic medical conditions (beside treated hypothyroidism and celiac disease) and no current medications (other than insulin) (detailed list of inclusion and exclusion criteria list can be found at section 6). The objectives of this clinical investigation is: 1. to evaluate the efficacy of glucose control using the FreeStyle Libre FGM in children with T1D during two weeks of summer camp.
This is a single arm investigator-initiated study designed to test the feasibility and potential efficacy of preoperative lanreotide to reduce the risk of postoperative abscess or pancreatic leak and fistula. All consenting patients undergoing planned elective pancreaticoduodenectomy or distal pancreatectomy for malignancy or suspected malignancy will be treated with a single deep subcutaneous dose of lanreotide prior to planned resection on the day of surgery. Following this intervention, care will be based on standard treatment protocols. Sixty-day mortality and morbidity will be collected for all patients.
This is a phase 1 randomized,double-blind,placebo-controlled study with single oral dose of globalagliatin hydrochloride (SY-004) administered to chinese healthy subjects to evaluated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of globalagliatin hydrochloride (SY-004).
Consumption of polyphenol-rich fruits and vegetables may improve the postprandial glucose and insulin responses and hence promote well-being. It has previously been observed that consumption of a bilberry drink decreases the postprandial insulin demand. In the present study, the impact of probiotic fruit beverages with different polyphenol profiles on the postprandial levels of glucose and insulin, were investigated.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sevoflurane-only Volatile induction and maintenance anesthesia (VIMA) and total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) using only propofol in adult patients scheduled for elective lobectomy surgery. We would like to know if there is a difference in blood glucose levels during surgery and whether the cause is due to the difference in secretion of insulin and cortisol. In addition, we aim to contribute to the improvement of the prognosis of the patients by helping the selection of general anesthesia more effective in maintaining homeostasis in the surgical patients by general anesthesia and further controlling the blood glucose level.
Consumption of carbohydrate containing foods or sugary drinks brings about changes to the blood glucose levels. After a meal or drink, blood glucose rises until it reaches a peak concentration usually after 30 minutes. When the body senses the increase in blood glucose, a hormonal process involving insulin takes place to ensure that the glucose is taken up from the blood for storage and where it is needed for energy in the body. This process then brings about a decrease in the concentration of glucose until it reaches approximately the starting concentration. The original concentration of glucose is attained approximately 2 hours after eating or drinking a carbohydrate food or sugary drink respectively in healthy people. Different carbohydrates and sugary drinks have different effects on blood glucose response depending on the amount as well as the type of carbohydrate. Those that give rise to a high glucose response compared to a reference carbohydrate (usually glucose) are said to be high glycaemic index (GI) foods and those with a lower glucose response compared to a reference carbohydrate (usually glucose) are said to be low glycaemic index (GI) foods. Research has shown that diets that give rise to a high glucose response are associated with a number of abnormalities like increased risk of metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome mostly comprises of insulin resistance and glucose intolerance which gives an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. It also gives rise to other conditions like high blood pressure (arterial hypertension), elevated blood insulin levels (hyper-insulinemia), elevated amounts of fat in the liver (fatty hepatosis) and elevated amounts of lipids in the blood (dyslipidemia). After type 2 diabetes become clinically apparent, the risk of cardiovascular disease also rises. Research has also shown that foods/drinks which raise blood glucose levels gradually (low GI) rather than rapidly (high GI) have health benefits which include reducing the risk of metabolic syndrome. Laboratory studies have shown that polyphenols found in fruits, vegetables and plant based foods have a positive effect on carbohydrate metabolism and can lower the blood glucose levels. This research will determine whether the presence of polyphenols in the diet has any lowering effect on the blood glucose levels and hence the glycaemic index of foods. This will be determined by asking volunteers to consume pomegranate polyphenols together with different carbohydrate sources which will define the 6 different interventions. The blood glucose response of bread will be determined initially as a control reference. All meals will be consumed in random order. Analysis will be done by measuring blood glucose response after consumption of the control reference meal and the test meal containing polyphenols and then determining the incremental area under the glucose curve. THE SIX DIFFERENT INTERVENTIONS MAY OR MAY NOT BE COMBINED FOR PURPOSES OF PUBLISHING RESULTS. EACH INTERVENTION WILL AIM TO HAVE AT LEAST 10 PARTICIPANTS.
