Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of two different daily doses of tetrahydrocannabivarin impregnated mouth strips in healthy non-diabetic obese adults. The main questions to answer are: - Is the low dose treatment superior to placebo for losing weight, abdominal girth, cholesterol levels and blood glucose levels? - Is the low dose treatment superior to placebo for losing weight, abdominal girth, cholesterol levels and blood glucose levels? - Is one dose better than the other dose? Participants will take either the low dose, high dose or placebo dose daily for ninety days and have physical measurements and blood tests obtained at the beginning and the end of the study.
The primary objective of this implementation study is to assess the feasibility of real time continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) implementation using a CGM plus (+) point-of-care (POC) protocol among patients on IV insulin or those with hyperglycemia (>250mg/dl) in the critical care hospital environments.
Design and methods 12 athletes with T1D and 12 healthy athletes are included in a prospective experimental randomized, cross-over study. Athletes are provided with a Dexcom G6 CGM to measure glucose excursions before, during and after exercise and a Holter ECG-E-patch to measure HRV. Psychological stress levels are assessed from Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2. The athletes are studied on two occasions: Day 1: 5K running competition and Day 2: 5K high intensity training session (running) in the athletes' regular training environment. Endpoints Primary endpoints: Change in plasma glucose from start of exercise to end of exercise during competition compared to training. Secondary endpoints: Hormonal response (cortisol, adrenalin, noradrenaline). Changes in heart rate and HRV before, during and after exercise. CGM-glucose and plasma glucose discrepancies.
In this study, 14 subjects with type 1 diabetes are studied in a randomized crossover study in which the subjects cycle at a fixed intensity at 60% of their maximum oxygen capacity (VO2 max) for 1 hour. Thirty minutes before each cycling test, participants consume a 200 ml beverage, consisting of either: 1) dextrose (20 g), 2) galactose (20 g), 3) lactose (20 g) or 4) water (sweetened). If blood sugar drops below 3.9 mmol/l, glucose infusion is given and blood sugar is kept just above 5 mmol/L. The trial days take place at least 4 days apart.
PRO-MENTAL is a non-interventional, prospective, observational study investigating longitudinal associations between diabetes distress, mental disorders, and glycemic outcomes in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). The study aims to determine mental health subtypes, trajectories, and patterns and to advance a precision medicine approach to improve mental health in people with diabetes through personalized care and interventions. A total of 1500 people with T1D or T2D will participate in the study, running over a 24-month period. Participants will be recruited at different levels of diabetes care including specialized centers and hospitals. The assessment includes a baseline assessment (clinical interview, questionnaire survey, and laboratory assessment) and four subsequent measurement time points - every six months - to a total period of two years. Each measurement time point includes an online questionnaire survey as well as a 14-day ambulatory assessment of daily mental and somatic variables (smartphone-based ecological momentary assessment (EMA) of daily sleep quality, mood, stress, and diabetes-related burdens/distress, as well as continuous glucose measurement (CGM) of daily glucose levels). The study uses precision monitoring to identify evidence-based subgroups of people with diabetes with regard to mental disorders/problems and glycemic outcome. Epidemiological data regarding prevalence and incidence rates of depression, anxiety, and eating disorders will be analyzed, and patient trajectories and patterns will be determined. The study also aims to shed more light on the mediating mechanisms between mental health and glycemic outcomes. The findings of the study will be used as the basis to develop a precision medicine approach with personalized interventions for specific sub-groups of people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
the aim of the study is to obtain CGM data concomitant with OGTT and to determine what CGM metrics obtained in pregnant women with and without a high risk of GDM correlate best with the diagnostic OGTT (obtained via the 2-step and 1-step approaches).
In recent decades, the world prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes (DMT2) has increased dramatically, resulting in a global epidemic. One of the aspects more connected to the etiology of these pathologies is undoubtedly the concept of the glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (CG). It has been shown that, with the same CG, that is of carbohydrates contained in a food, a food with a higher GI tends to raise blood sugar more quickly (and consequently insulin), causing several negative effects on the body. We now have sufficient evidence to show that high GI diets are associated with increased incidence of DMT2, hyperlipoproteinemia, and cardiovascular disease. Although simple carbohydrates, namely sugars, have always been considered the major inducers of hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia, in reality also starches, or complex carbohydrates digestible by humans, may lead to an increase in blood sugar levels which is not as rapid but often equally harmful to health, since the GC is generally higher. The reason why a high GI diet is responsible for this increased risk of developing pathologies is not unambiguous. We can identify at least 4 probable mechanisms. 1. Sudden hyperglycemia tends to cause insulin to rise beyond what is necessary, leading subsequently to the risk of hypoglycemia and thus an excessive feeling of hunger. Increased energy intake and obesity. 2. Excess insulin secretion, aggravated by insulin resistance, represents an effort for the pancreas with the risk, over time, to arrive at a deficit of insulin-dependent diabetes type 2 insulin production 3. Hyperinsulinemia is also associated with reduced lipolysis and increased lipogenesis obesity and hyperlipoproteinemia 4. Fat accumulation, especially in the abdominal region, is associated with chronic inflammation and insulin resistance by type 2 diabetes tissues and metabolic syndrome In addition to these reasons, a high GI diet, typically called Western Diet, is also generally deficient in plant foods, rich in antioxidants and photo compounds with anti-inflammatory action, without which the process of chronic organic inflammation is accelerated, even in the absence of real obesity.
BACKGROUND/AIM: Secondary forms of diabetes are often understudied and underdiagnosed in children and adolescents with cancer. The objectives of this cohort study were to study the incidence and risk factors for hyperglycaemia in leukaemia and lymphoma patients. METHODS: The investigators retrospectively collected 15 years of data from paediatric patients treated for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL), Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL), and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) immediately at cancer diagnosis. They studied risk factors for hyperglycaemia in univariate and multivariate analyses.
This is an observational study of patients with severe acute brain injury, which aims to characterize the development of hyperglycaemia and hyperlactataemia and the influence of these markers on clinical outcome. Additionally, in a subgroup of patients undergoing advanced multimodal neuromonitoring on either clinical or research indication, the relationship between hyperglycaemia and brain glucose levels as well as systemic and microdialysis lactate will be examined.
Patients with diabetes have an increased risk of sudden cardiac death compared to the general population. Severe hypoglycemia is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease (CVD) and events, including cardiac arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death; likewise, increased glycemic variability is associated with macrovascular complications and increased mortality. The physiological mechanisms linking hypoglycemia and glycemic variability to CVD and CV events remain unclear. Myocardial work and mechanical dyssynchrony will be measured by speckle tracking echocardiography during euglycemia, hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia in individuals with type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and without diabetes. Echocardiographic images from three experimental clamp studies - Hypo-Heart 1 (sub-study 1), Hypo-Heart 2 (sub-study 2) and Rapid-Heart - will be included in this study.
