Filter by:Significant weight reduction, achieved by low-calorie diet (LCD), will mobilise ectopic fat (visceral and particularly liver fat), improving insulin sensitivity and other metabolic syndrome components, with secondary beneficial effects on cardiac structure and function. This CALIBRATE study (metabolic, multi-organ and effects of low-calorie diet in younger obese patients with pre-diabetes) will compare the effects of a safe and effective 12-month weight management intervention, initially using a low-calorie, liquid replacement diet for 12 weeks, anticipating at least 10% reduction in body weight. The investigators will examine how much the weight loss improves the metabolic abnormalities that precede type 2 diabetes (T2D), and in reversing the pre-clinical/subtle clinical abnormalities of the liver and heart that precede liver and cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study will compare the effects of a safe and effective 12-month weight management intervention, initially using a low-calorie, liquid replacement diet for 12 weeks, followed by a weight maintenance phase. The investigators will examine how much the weight loss improves the metabolic and neuropathic abnormalities that precede and accompany type 2 diabetes (T2D), and in reversing the pre-clinical/subtle clinical abnormalities of the liver and heart that precede liver and cardiovascular disease. In an additional optional sub-study, the investigators will additionally assess how the weight loss impacts upon appetite regulation within the brain with functional MRI (fMRI).
This study aims to understand the effects of automated physician directed messaging on patient engagement in the digital diabetes prevention program (dDPP). The messages are tailored to patient engagement levels based on established engagement thresholds, which are based on the patient's use of the dDPP application. The system is designed to minimize work for providers by sending automated targeted messages to patients to potentially increase engagement, prevent onset of diabetes and improve clinical outcomes. The patients in the study are automatically nudged using a combination of text messaging and MyChart messaging.
This clinical study aims to prove that the efficacy of non digestible carbohydrates supplementation (daily dose of 20 grams consumed twice a day for 12 weeks) on the regulation of glucose homeostasis is superior than placebo in prediabetic subjects.
The patient outcome in cardiac surgery is substantially linked to the occurrence of hyperglycemia. Qatar ranks 5th in the rate of diabetes globally; Moreover diabetics comprise more than 40% of patients admitted to the cardiac surgery intensive care unit (CTICU) in Qatar heart hospital. This prevalence is higher than the rest of the world. These numbers are projected to increase with accompanied morbidity-mortality hazardous by 2030 if the adequate intervention will not be directed towards better control of blood sugar within ICU and the hospital stay. The overall objective of this project is to explore the immunological profile in patients with poor glycemic control within their intensive care unit stay in Qatar. 'time in range' (TIR) was used for defining glycemic control within the ICU, where patients with time in range more than 80%, (in presence or absence of debates), had better outcomes than those with time in range less than 80% TIR. Notably, regarding wound infection, lengths of ventilation and ICU stay; they were not candidates to recurrent hypoglycemic episodes also. The high HbA1C preoperatively is probably a valid forecaster of indigent glycemic control. Previous studies demonstrated conversion of non-diabetics to diabetics when they face stress of critical illness. No previous studies explored this possible conversion cardiac surgery. Our primary objectives will be to determine whether non-diabetic patients with poor glycemic control in cardiac surgery would develop subsequent diabetes later on. Investigators will follow up non-diabetics patients after 3 months to satisfy this aim. Investigators will include all patients who will undergo cardiac surgery over two years from the time of approval without evidence of diabetes as documented by glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C). Patients will be followed up to one year with laboratory investigations to document whether they will develop diabetes or not. Data will be stored and statistically analyzed. Investigators expect to have details about the possible conversion in this high-risk population.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of oral abscisic acid (ABA) on glucose metabolism in subjects with defined prediabetes.
This study will test whether a culturally-tailored nutrition and exercise intervention designed for African-American women will lead to sustained improvements in exercise and healthy eating through improvements in self-management mediators: mindfulness, stress management, positive reappraisal, self-regulation, and self-efficacy.
Examining a number of health outcomes in those with diabetes and prediabetes before and after a group-based mindfulness intervention.
Previous Icelandic studies regarding prevalence of diabetes have mostly used data from the capital area. Information on the proportion of people at risk at developing T2DM or having undiagnosed T2DM among people living in rural Northern Iceland is unknown. Clinical guidelines recommend that patients with prediabetes (diabetes warning signs) should be referred to a counselling program. The study will evaluate effectiveness of nurse-coordinated Guided Self-Determination (GSD) follow up program toward health promotion, for people at risk of T2DM.
To determine the post-prandial metabolic response and biomarker response, following the consumption of newly developed low glycaemic index (GI) snack bars. The snack bars are formulated with different combinations and ratios of ingredients and food structures. The low sugar products maintaining glucose homeostasis and preventing metabolic problems may have commercial potential as a novel functional ingredient in a variety of fields, including nutrition, medicine, and agriculture.
This study will determine the glycaemic and insulinaemic response and sensory profile of the drinks with various ratios sucrose:isomaltulose. The information will be useful for manufacturers of beverages to produce blood glucose friendlier drinks. The information will also be useful for dieticians and clinicians in recommending foods and drinks for people with diabetes. The information will also be useful to the public for making better food choices. The data will also provide insights on how the different ratios of sweeteners may affect glycaemic and insulinaemic indices (GI and II).
