Filter by:To the investigator's knowledge, there are no data available in the current literature regarding the acute effects of postprandial hyperglycemia and insulin timing on myocardial perfusion in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Observational studies using CEU in type 2 diabetes demonstrate that postprandial hyperglycemia determines myocardial perfusion defects. The investigator hypothesizes that the combination of postprandial hyperglycemia and insulin increases pulse wave velocity (i.e., aortic stiffness) and myocardial vasoconstriction, thereby reducing myocardial perfusion in T1D when compared to healthy controls. Furthermore, the investigator hypothesizes in T1D that dosing insulin before meal intake will ameliorate these cardiovascular defects.
The purpose of this prospective study is to determine if trial use of a Dexcom G6 CGM system for a 10 day wear period in pediatric Type 2 diabetes patients improves short term time in range glucose control and 3-6 month glycemic control.
The purpose of this prospective study is to determine if trial use of a Dexcom G6 CGM system for a 10 day wear period in high risk, poorly controlled pediatric Type 1 diabetes patients increases uptake of personal CGM use, and improves short-term time in range glucose control.
Patients with Takotsubo cardiomiopathy (TTC) have over-inflammation and over-sympathetic tone. However, these conditions could cause higher rate of heart failure (HF) events and deaths at 2 years of follow-up. Conversely, hyperglycemia vs. normoglycemia could result in over expression of inflammatory markers and catecholamines thta could result in higher rate of HF and deaths at 2 years of follow-up in TTC patients.
Patients with and without diabetes who have postoperative hyperglycemia have worse outcomes than patients with in-target blood sugars. Previous quality improvement work suggests numerous barriers and clinical inertia may contribute to quality gaps in glycemic management for surgical patients. Using a framework for perioperative glycemic management, we sought to measure quality gaps in perioperative glycemic care. This cross-sectional study used administrative data to measure the proportion of surgical patients with and without known diabetes who underwent preoperative hemoglobin A1c measurement, postoperative point-of-care testing for glucose (POCT), had hyperglycemia, and received basal bolus insulin regimens for treatment. We performed an exploratory analysis comparing length of stay (LOS) in patients with and without diabetes who had and did not have postoperative hyperglycemia.
The objective of this project is to determine the prevalence of hypertension, hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia in the pediatric population with sickle cell disease who are obese in Mississippi compared to those pediatric patients with sickle cell disease who are not overweight/obese. The pediatric hematology department at the University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC) has a relatively large population of patients with sickle cell disease who are overweight and obese. This is a paradoxical trend since high-energy expenditure of the body to produce new red blood cells usually results in underweight to normal weight patients. From our previous chart review, the investigators found our pediatric patients with sickle cell disease to have similar rates of overweight and obesity to that of state and national levels. The metrics our team will measure include: blood pressure, blood cholesterol levels and blood glucose levels. The investigators expect to find higher rates of hypertension, high cholesterol and high glucose levels in the overweight and obese patients with SCD compared to that of underweight and normal weight. Our ultimate goal for follow up projects will be to determine the baseline risk of hypertension, hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia in this population so we can then determine effective, sustainable interventions for weight and the co-morbidities that come with increasing weight status. Our goal would also be to educate the patient and families on these interventions and provide them with resources, which could lead to an overall improvement in health and patients quality of life.
The main purpose of this study is how to manage hyperglycemic patients in emergency departments, to determine the conditions that require blood glucose regulation and to examine the prognosis of the patients in the next 30 days, depending on the regulation method.
The Early Detection Initiative for Pancreatic Cancer is a multi-center randomized controlled trial to determine if algorithm-based screening in patients with new onset hyperglycemia and diabetes can result in earlier detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
In type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, patients receive insulin doses if they consume specific amounts of carbohydrates. Currently, insulin is not being administered for consumption of protein although studies in adults show that consuming about 75 grams of protein causes elevation in post prandial glucose levels and might need insulin coverage. We are proposing that this amount is different for kids and it might vary based on weight, age, pubertal stage, HbA1C or other factors. This has not been studied in children before, and it will provide information about the amount of protein in the diet that can cause elevation in post prandial glucose.
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.
