Filter by:This study will explore the cerebral mechanisms of impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH) in type 1 diabetics following exposure to experimental recurrent hypoglycemia (HG). To induce IAH, patients with T1D identified to have normal awareness of hypoglycemia (NAH) will undergo three 2-hour long hypoglycemic clamps. Neurochemical profiles will be measured by high field MRS before and after induction of IAH. Subject glycemic variability for 2 weeks and activity/sleep for 1 week before each study will be monitored as all factors have been shown to alter responses to HG.
The investigator propose to test the safety and efficacy of a regimen that combines Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Vitamin D in a design that considers timing and duration of administration in relation to their effects and predicted synergies.
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) leads to weight reduction but has also some unwanted side effects. A part of this population will develop postprandial reactive hypoglycemia (PPRH). At this moment no validated diagnostic tool exists for PPRH. The aim of this study is to prove an association between the Sigstad´s Score and the lowest postprandial glucose level in patients after RYGB surgery. This is investigated using a liquid mixed meal tolerance test (LMMTT). As a secondary hypothesis, associations between Edinburgh Hypoglycemia Scale (EHS) and postprandial glucose levels are investigated. Furthermore, changes of insulin and GLP-1 levels during the test are analysed. Patient characteristics including co-morbidities are studied as possible influencing parameters. Moreover, a healthy control group is included to validate the results. Finally, a flowchart/diagnostic method will be proposed for diagnosing patients who had a RYBG surgery with symptoms suggestive of PPRH. Besides the LMMTT, participants at the Ghent University Hospital will undergo additional tests such as a solid mixed meal tolerance test (SMMTT) and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). Associations between Sigstad Score, EHS and the lowest glucose measured during CGM and SMMTT will be investigated and compared to the results of the LMMTT.
This study is designed to evaluate individuals who are currently experiencing symptoms of hypoglycemia, in order to discern correlations between microbiome composition and patterns of postprandial glycemia.
The objective of the trial is to demonstrate superiority of dasiglucagon compared to placebo following a single subcutaneous dose administered to subjects with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) with insulin-induced hypoglycemia. Additionally to compare the glycemic response observed after administration dasiglucagon with that of GlucaGen®.
This clinical study will evaluate whether taking an investigational drug called exendin 9-39 is safe, well-tolerated, and helps to prevent low blood sugar in people who have had bariatric surgery and later develop a rare condition called postbariatric hypoglycemia (PBH).
Sitagliptin, through its effects on sensitizing alpha-cell sensitivity to glucose, can initiate counter-regulatory glucagon responses at higher glycemic thresholds, thus reducing the number of clinically apparent hypoglycemic episodes, and/or ameliorating the severity of hypoglycemic episodes in the case that they should occur. The endpoints have defined such that consequences of this hypothesis can be measured.
To determine the effect of re-activation of brain glucose metabolism induced by dichloroacetate (DCA) on cognitive function and counterregulatory hormone responses in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) with recurrent hypoglycemia.
The purpose of this study is to see if the use of a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) by people who experience low blood sugars (hypoglycemia) after gastric surgery can help reduce the number and severity of low blood sugar episodes.
It has been reported that insulin basal rate reduction initiated at exercise onset can reduce the hypoglycemic risk during exercise. However, another potentially more efficient strategy to prevent exercise-induced hypoglycemia could be to reduce insulin basal rate a certain time prior to exercise. The objective of this study will be to compare the efficacy of two strategies to prevent exercise-induced hypoglycemia during a 60-minute exercise at moderate intensity: 1) reduce insulin basal rate 40 minutes prior to exercise; 2) reduce insulin basal rate 90 minutes prior to exercise.
