Filter by:This study will investigate the effect of high-carbohydrate vs. high-fat overfeeding (130% of energy requirements) on whole body insulin sensitivity. Following habitual diet, participants will be randomly allocated to either a high-carbohydrate or a high-fat diet intervention for 14-days. On days 0, 7 and 14 participants will undergo anthropometric and metabolic testing (primarily an oral glucose tolerance test [OGTT]).
Modern living is associated with an epidemic of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Sleep disturbances such as insomnia or frequent awakenings are strong risk factors for T2DM with several studies indicating a central role of melatonin. Additionally, a certain single nucleotide polymorphism in the melatonin receptor gene, MTNR1B rs10830963, with an allele frequency of 30 %, is associated with increased fasting plasma glucose and T2DM. Due to treatment of, among other things, insomnia, the use of melatonin is increasing rapidly in Denmark with a 100-fold increase from 2007-2012 in children and adolescents. No previous studies have thoroughly assessed changes in glucose and fatty acid metabolism after 3 months of melatonin treatment in patients with T2DM.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of interrupting prolong sedentary behavior with interval exercise on postprandial metabolism following a high fat glucose tolerance test.
This study aims to assess the associations of maternal food timing with glucose levels during pregnancy.
This is a prospective, observational study aiming at improving the understanding of the pathophysiology of metabolic disease. As inflammation has been recognized as a key characteristic of metabolic disease but its starting point is still unknown, the investigators' aim is to characterize intestinal macrophages from human gut biopsies taken in diagnostic endoscopies of the gastrointestinal tract or in bariatric surgeries for clinical reasons.
To find out whether consumption of different kinds of plant based functional food ingredients, traditionally used in Asia, can improve post-meal response of indicators of heart and metabolic (cardiometabolic) function.
Increasing evidences suggest that infections are important etiological factors for the development of Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). The overall hypothesis of the study is that the treatment of children, during the first year after diagnosis of T1D with Azithromycin, combined with repeated episodes of intensified insulin treatment to induce maximal beta-cell rest, and dietician support to promote dietary habits that minimize the likelihood of bacterial reflux from the duodenum to the pancreatic duct, will lead to preservation of beta cell function. This trial will examine whether the AIDIT protocol initiated within one week from diagnosis could preserve insulin production in children with Type 1 Diabetes.
The proposed randomized controlled trial will test the effect of a low-carbohydrate diet on hemoglobin A1c among individuals with elevated hemoglobin A1c that are within the range of prediabetes or diabetes. Results may provide evidence about the role of carbohydrate restriction in individuals with or at high risk of type 2 diabetes.
The overall objective is to develop scalable interventions to address the physical health needs of patients affected by early psychosis. The objective of this project is to conduct a feasibility study of a high intensity technology-enabled collaborative care model (CCM) compared to lower intensity self-help modules and email support for early identification and treatment of cardio-metabolic risk factors in youth, ages 16-29, affected by early psychosis.
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of one session of aerobic exercise associated with radiofrequency in lipolytic activity and lipid profile.
