Filter by:This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded crossover design. Fifteen healthy subjects will be randomized to receive either ketone bodies (KE4) or placebo delivered by KetoneAid. After a period of 5-days treatment, effect variables will be measured (experiment day 1). After a washout period of 14 days, the subjects are crossed over to a similar treatment period with the other treatment. The study is terminated by measuring effect variables after the second treatment period (experiment day 2).
Heart failure (HF) is among the most common causes of death in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Ketones, 3-hydroxybutyrate (3-OHB), have shown to have beneficial hemodynamics effect in patients with hearth failure with reduced ejection fraction. However, this have never been investigated in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). In this study we would like to investigate the effect of 14 days modulation of circulating ketone body levels on cardiac function and exercise capacity in patients with HFpEF and T2D.

Ketones, 3-hydroxybutyrate (3-OHB), have shown to have beneficial hemodynamics effect in patients with hearth failure with reduced ejection fraction. The mechanisms behind these marked hemodynamic effects are currently unknown, but could involve prostaglandin-release. 3-OHB is the endogenous ligand for the G protein-coupled receptor hydroxy-carboxylic acid 2 (HCA2) receptor. This receptor has proven downstream effects on cAMP and systemic effects via release of prostaglandins. In this present study we will investigate the cardiovascular effects of HCA2-receptor stimulation in heart failure patients.
In the present study, patients with idiopathic pulmonary hypertension (IPAH) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertenion will be investigated in a randomized cross-over design with ketone infusions and placebo. Invasive and non-invasive hemodynamics will be evaluated
The use of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) has been associated with increased serum ketone levels. However, most previous studies included subjects who were either insulin or even drug naïve with relatively short duration of diabetes. It is well known that insulin deficiency increases the risk of developing ketoacidosis with SGLT2 inhibitors. Moreover, since the glucose-lowering effect of SGLT2 inhibitors is at its maximum at 3 to 6 months after use, the extent of increase in serum ketone levels and its clinical relevance with chronic use of SGLT2 inhibitors, especially among insulin-treated patients that often have longer duration of diabetes and potentially more insulin deficient than those who are insulin naive, have not been clearly defined. Therefore, the investigators perform this randomised study to evaluate the effect of SGLT2 inhibitors on serum ketone levels among Chinese patients with T2DM inadequately controlled with insulin therapy.
Compare plasma metabolites following different conditions paired with a dietary MCT beverage over an 8-hour metabolic day protocol in young and older participants.
Diabetes negatively affects cognition and increases the risk of developing overt dementia. Decreased cerebral glucose metabolism may be contributing to this effect, thus providing a glucose substitute using ketone bodies might improve neuronal function. In this study the investigators propose to provide quantitative results on cognitive performance during acute hyperketonemia in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Ketones may have beneficial effects on myocardial metabolism and hemodynamics. In the present study, healthy test subjects and patients with heart failure with reduced ejections fraction will be investigated in a randomized cross-over design with ketone infusions and placebo. Myocardial efficiency and hemodynamics will be evaluated.
