Filter by:The investigators are studying the accuracy of Dexcom G6 continuous glucose monitors placed on babies with hyperinsulinism in the Miller Children's Hospital Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The participants will wear the device for 10 days on their lateral thigh. Whenever blood sugars are checked by glucometer, the investigators will also record the continuous glucose monitor sugar. Additionally, if the continuous glucose monitor alarms for a low sugar or an impending low sugar, the investigators will check the blood sugar by glucometer and, if verified to be low, treat the low blood sugar accordingly.
The Phase 3 pivotal study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of RZ358 for the treatment of congenital hyperinsulinism (HI) as add-on to standard-of-care (SOC) therapy compared to SOC alone over 24 weeks and to evaluate the longer-term safety and efficacy of RZ358 during a subsequent open-label extension (OLE) period.
The goal of this clinical study is to test whether postprandial insulin secretion in subjects with prediabetes is mediated by Interleukin-1β and may be influenced by administration of the medicinal product anakinra (Kineret®). The main question it aims to answer is whether there is a difference in insulin secretion following a standardized mixed-meal test under anakinra compared to placebo.
There are numerous plant foods that are a source of bioactive compounds, which can induce an anti-inflammatory effect on various pathways of inflammatory processes in the body as it may be useful in decreasing markers of inflammation expressed by COVID-19 infectious disease and conditions such as obesity and its comorbidities. Given the above, Hibiscus sabdariffa hibiscus possesses advantages as a potential adjuvant in the management of COVID-19, as studies on the phytochemical properties of H. sabdariffa show that it has several health benefits, and could be used as a potent material for the therapeutic treatment of various diseases. Due to its high content of bioactive compounds, these can exert antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticarcinogenic effects, as well as help control blood glucose levels, prevent cardiovascular disease and obesity. In addition, it is a traditional component of the Mexican diet, of common consumption, easy incorporation in the diet, versatility in preparation and national production. Therefore, to evaluate the bioavailability of bioactive compounds present in a beverage developed from the TECNM/ITESO collaboration, as well as the glycemic and insulinemic response produced by its consumption; besides establishing the effect on some inflammation markers that may be activated as a consequence of the SARS-COV-2 virus infection. This will help to increase knowledge about potential treatment/prevention schemes, avoid the development of severe manifestations of the disease, as well as boost the production and market of a national product.
The goal of this study is to test whether monitoring insulin levels and using pioglitazone to treat hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia in patients treated with Alpelisib for metastatic breast cancer is feasible and safe, and to assess the rates of glycemic control, dose reductions and treatment discontinuation and the progression free survival of patients treated with this regimen.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare a two-week course of diazoxide (at two different doses) and placebo in people with overweight/obesity and insulin resistance (IR) with, or at high risk for, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The main questions it aims to answer are how mitigation of compensatory hyperinsulinemia with diazoxide affects parameters of glucose and lipid metabolism (how people with IR and NAFLD respond to lowering high insulin levels so that the investigators can see what happens to how the liver handles fat and sugar). Participants will: - Take 27 doses of diazoxide (at 1 mg per kg of body weight per dose [mpk] or 2 mpk) or of placebo, over 14 days - Take 32 doses of heavy (deuterated) water (50 mL each) over 14 days - Have blood drawn and saliva collected after an overnight fast on four mornings over the two-week study period - Consume their total calculated daily caloric needs as divided into three meals per day - Wear a continuous glucose monitor for the two-week study period Researchers will compare fasting blood tests at intervals during the study period in participants randomized (like the flip of a coin) to diazoxide 1 mpk, diazoxide 2 mpk, or placebo, to see how the drug treatment affects plasma glucose, serum insulin, and serum lipid parameters (triglycerides, free fatty acids, and apolipoprotein B). They will also consume heavy (deuterated) water to assess de novo lipogenesis (building of new fatty acids by the liver).
This is a single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled (crossover) clinical study designed to investigate the specific dose-response impact of insulin infusion rate (IIR) on blood glucose levels during a pancreatic clamp study. The investigators will recruit participants with a history of overweight/obesity and evidence of insulin resistance (i.e., fasting hyperinsulinemia plus prediabetes and/or impaired fasting glucose and/or Homeostasis Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance [HOMA-IR] score >=2.73), and with evidence of, or clinically judged to be at high risk for, uncomplicated non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Participants will undergo two pancreatic clamp procedures in which individualized basal IIR are identified, followed in one by maintenance of basal IIR (maintenance hyperinsulinemia, MH) and in the other by a stepped decline in IIR (reduction toward euinsulinemia, RE). In both clamps the investigators will closely monitor plasma glucose and various metabolic parameters. The primary outcome will be the absolute and relative changes in steady-state plasma glucose levels at each stepped decline in IIR.
The goals of this project are to build an experimental tool to dissect out in vivo pancreatic beta cell mass (BCM) and beta cell function (BCF) and to assess for the first time these two determinants of beta cell functional mass (BCFxM) in obesity and in various stages of type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The investigators are doing this study to learn more about how to prevent type 2 diabetes in teenage girls. The purpose of this study is to find out if taking part in a cognitive-behavioral therapy group, exercise training group, or a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy and exercise training groups, decreases stress, improves mood, increases physical activity and physical fitness, and decreases insulin resistance among teenagers at risk for diabetes.
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is associated with metabolic symptoms such as hyperinsulinemia. Time-restricted eating may reduce serum insulin and improve insulin resistance in patients with PCOS. Currently, there are few studies investigating time-restricted eating in patients with PCOS. The investigators plan to test the feasibility of time-restricted eating in the management of PCOS by means of a real-world clinical intervention. The investigators will determine if an 18:6 eating protocol reduces insulin levels by means of a randomised controlled crossover trial.
