Filter by:This is a single-center, single-cohort, open, repeated-application study. Baseline assessments will include a Hyperinsulinemic clamp after injection of 0.15 U/kg body weight of insulin lispro in the target LH lesion, as well as a Mixed Meal Tolerance Test (MMTT) with pre-meal insulin injected into the LH lesion. Subjects will discontinue their basal insulin for 2-3 days after the Continuous glucose monitor (CGM) study ends, prior to admission to the research center ("wash-out"). After release from the research center, subjects will wear the Embrace over the target LH lesion for 16 weeks. At the beginning of week 17, the clamp and MMTT will be repeated, after which participants will again wear an unblinded CGM for ~6 days with injections only in the target LH lesion when applying an Embrace patch with a hole. A needle biopsy will be taken from the LH lesion at baseline and again at study completion.
The goal of this three-phase interventional study is to determine the prevalence of Insulin resistance in non-diabetic patients with multiple sclerosis in Egypt The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. what is the prevalence of insult resistance among Egyptian patients with Multiple sclerosis? 2. what are the effects of insulin resistance on multiple sclerosis disease activity and progression 3. what are the effects of treating insulin resistance on multiple sclerosis disease activity and progression participants with MS will be tested for IR to determine its prevalence, in the 2nd phase a group of MS patients with IR will be compared with another control group of MS patients without IR for clinical, laboratory, and radiological markers of disease activity and progression twice at baseline and after 1 year. in the 3rd phase, patients with IR will be divided into 2 groups one who will receive appropriate treatment for IR and the other group without treatment of IR and will be compared by the end of the 2nd year for clinical, laboratory and radiological markers of disease activity and progression
n a retrospective analysis of an exercise training program performed either in the morning or afternoon, we found that the afternoon training group improved their peripheral insulin sensitivity and fasting plasma glucose levels to a greater extent than the morning group. However, underlying mechanisms are unclear. The main objective of this study is to determine whether prolonged exercise training in the afternoon (15:00-17:00 PM) differs from exercise training in the morning (07:00-09:00 AM) in improving insulin sensitivity in individuals with pre-diabetes, and to investigate its underlying mechanisms.
This research study collects health-related information and blood samples to better understand how body composition, lifestyle habits, and diet influence meta-inflammatory monocytes (MiMos) in adolescents. The hypothesis of this study is that adolescents at risk for metabolic disease have enhanced MiMo related activities leading to insulin resistance.
This is an 8 to14-week three-arm randomized controlled in children 8 to 12 years old. The main purpose of the study is to evaluate if stevia (as with other sweeteners and consistent with prior research in children and adults) has benefits for weight control and metabolic function relative to caloric sweeteners, and whether it provides benefits in this regard similar to water.
In this prospective study the investigators aim to identify preoperative predictors of improvement of metabolic health and weight loss after bariatric surgery focusing on inflammation, insulin sensitivity (in a subgroup of patients), glucoregulatory determinants, psychological traits, feeding behavior characteristics and cardiorespiratory fitness
The purpose of the study is to test the impact of a multilevel workplace intervention (hospital-wide sales ban on sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) and individual-level brief counseling) on employee health.
This study will be conducted to investigate the Effect of whole-body vibration on insulin resistance in obese postmenopausal women
Diabetes can lead to heart failure independently, but the underlying causes remain incompletely understood. The main aim of this study is to identify differential regulation of mitochondrial substrate utilization and complex activity in heart failure and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). For this, we will conduct a prospective, observational study to examine myocardial mitochondrial oxidative function and related metabolic parameters, gene expression, histological markers, and inflammation in cardiac tissue from patients with heart failure or patients after heart transplantation. We will further assess cardiac function using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging with and without stress protocols and magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Glycemic control/T2DM will be characterized by oral glucose tolerance tests. The results of this project will help to better understand the cellular mechanisms of the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy and contribute to the development of early diagnostic, as well as therapeutic approaches for the prevention and treatment of diabetic cardiomyopathy.
A cross-sectional study will be conducted, which will include 80 young patients with psoriasis, aged 30-45 years, treated with five different types of antipsoriatic treatment, and 20 healthy patients. All 100 subjects will be subjected to anthropometric measurements, blood will be collected for laboratory tests, and an imaging test will be performed to determine the function of the endothelium and arterial stiffness. The results will then be statistically analyzed.
