Filter by:The aim of this study is to examine the effect of a single bout of moderate exercise, standardized breakfast and buffet meal on appetite-related hormones, type two diabetes and cardiovascular risk factors with a comparison between healthy South Asian and white European men. It is of interest to see if any factor differences occur in appetite-regulating hormones and cardiovascular disease risk factors whilst exercising. If so strategies may be used to alter regulation in diet and exercise to reduce risk cardiovascular disease as this is the number one cause of death globally.
This study will recruit pre-diabetic patients to see if continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) with a low carbohydrate diet can reduce the percentage of time the CGM readings are above the normal range. Through this study it will demonstrate the feasibility of using CGM with a low carbohydrate diet to reduce weight and risk of developing diabetes in patients with pre-diabetes. Patients that appear to be eligible will be recruited from Michigan Medicine in the Family Medicine Clinic at the Livonia Center.
The purpose of this research study is to learn about the effectiveness of HealthSnap assessment, to reduce epicardial fat thickness. Excessive epicardial fat is associated with higher risk of developing diabetes and heart diseases. HealthSnap Assessment is a simple, quick and not invasive tool that will provide the patient with a personalized information nutritional and exercise plan.The use of HealthSnap in the clinical practice has not been evaluated, yet.
Mindsets play an important role in motivating and shaping health behavior and outcomes. For example, when patients have the mindset that a treatment will work, they are more likely to adhere to treatment medications and the treatment itself becomes more effective as a result of this mindset. Providers have an opportunity to shape important patient mindsets as part of clinical care, and these mindsets may influence patients' adherence to medication, screening and vaccination recommendations, and diet, exercise, and treatment recommendations that can help patients manage chronic illness. To help care teams capitalize on the potential of leveraging mindsets in medicine and improve patient health behavior and outcomes, we developed and implemented the Medicine Plus Mindset Training as part of Primary Care 2.0. Built on more than two decades of research, this training program (a) Informs Primary Care teams about the power of patient mindsets in shaping treatment outcomes (b) Provides care teams with a language and framework to identify which patient mindsets may be at play (i.e. patient mindsets about illness, treatment, their body, and the provider/care team) and (c) Equips care teams with skills and techniques to effectively shape patient mindsets to improve health outcomes. By motivating care teams to recognize patient mindsets that may be hindering health behavior change (such as "this illness is a catastrophe") or medication adherence (such as "this medication is going to cause side effects"), care teams become better equipped to help their patients adopt more useful mindsets (such as "this treatment will work," "this illness is manageable," "my body is capable," and "I am in good hands").
Aim: To examine the effect of a brief theory-based health promotion intervention delivered in the community on health behaviour and diabetes-related risk factors among Danish adults at high risk of diabetes. Methods: A randomised trial was conducted among 127 individuals aged 28 to 70 with fasting plasma glucose: 6.1-6.9 mmol/l and/or HbA1c : 6.0-<6.5% (42- < 48 mmol/mol) recruited from general practice in Holstebro, Denmark. Participants were randomised to a control group or to receive the intervention delivered over four 2 h group sessions during five weeks, and two further sessions after one and six months. Questionnaire data and clinical measures were collected at baseline, three months and one year after intervention.
Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is a serious chronic condition and one of the world's fastest growing health problems. The onset of T2DM is gradual, with most individuals progressing through a state of pre-diabetes. Pre-diabetes is a prevalent and potentially reversible condition, which provides an important window of opportunity for the prevention of T2DM and its complications. This project aims to translate the evidence-based diabetes prevention strategies into a community setting to reduce diabetes risks in Hong Kong Chinese people with pre-diabetes .
This study determines if substituting full-fat yogurt (i.e., whole, 3.25% fat) for non-fat yogurt in the diet can reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes and inflammation in association with changes in the composition of the gastrointestinal bacteria prediabetic male and female volunteers. The central hypothesis is that dairy fat impacts whole body glucose handling and insulin sensitivity as well as inflammation both directly, and indirectly via influencing the gut microbiota composition.
Prediabetes is a common condition in overweight individuals affecting approximately 35% of American adults and 30% of Australian adults. Like diabetes, prediabetes is a serious risk factor for cardiovascular disease, eye, kidney and liver disease, and some types of cancer. Appropriate blood glucose control is crucial in preventing pre-diabetes complications and onset of diabetes, yet clinical practice, backed by randomised trials, reports that many patients treated with standard dietary guidelines or with the first-line treatment of diabetes patients, metformin, do not improve blood glucose control sufficiently. The overarching goal of the present project is to improve the efficacy of metformin mono-therapy in pre-diabetes and early type 2 diabetes.
In this study, adults with pre-diabetes will be prospectively enrolled for data collection to design prediction models that integrate electronic health record data and patient-generated activity data. Patients will be randomized to receive either a waist-worn or wrist-worn wearable device for 6 months to capture patient-generated activity data.
The natural history of type 2 diabetes commonly follows a pattern of postprandial dysregulation followed by fasting hyperglycemia leading to overt type 2 diabetes. Approximately 38% of the US adult population is estimated to have pre-diabetes. In a previous study of 16 overweight/obese patients with metformin treated type 2 diabetes, using a typical Western meal, investigators demonstrated that a food order in which protein and vegetables are consumed first, before carbohydrate, results in significant lowering of incremental glucose peaks compared to the reverse order. In the present study, investigators seek to expand on the previous findings to gain further insight into the impact of food order in individuals with pre-diabetes, using a meal with different macronutrient composition, in the setting of three meal patterns. The study is designed to be a simple, practical intervention that may have very significant clinical implications for prevention of diabetes in a large population at increased metabolic risk.
