Filter by:Prediabetes is part of the natural history of type 2 diabetes mellitus, which is one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality in Mexico. It is known that overweight and obesity are the main risk factors for producing insulin resistance and this in turn leads to prediabetes-diabetes mellitus 2, acting alone or together, excess adipose tissue, mainly visceral, and Prediabetes increase cardiovascular risk before hyperglycemia occurs in the diagnostic criteria for diabetes. Effective strategies have been developed focused on changing lifestyle habits (changes in dietary patterns and increased physical activity) to promote weight loss in populations with and without glucose alterations present, but with limitations in the scope for the size of the affected population. There is a small number of studies developed for this purpose, focused on a multidisciplinary intervention in low- and middle-income countries. The prediabetes care program (PreCPro) is a care initiative developed by the primary care public health services of the Government of Mexico City (CDMX) to promote weight reduction and reduction of hyperglycemia through a intervention composed of an interdisciplinary care team, centered on the patient with a focus on promoting change in people's behavior to adopt healthy eating and physical activity habits. The target population of the prediabetes care program (PreCPro) is made up of patients with prediabetes, without advanced diseases, who receive regular care in public primary care services in Mexico City.
Small Steps for Big Changes (SSBC) is a diet and exercise counselling program that significantly reduces the risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). In partnership with YMCAs in Canada spanning 8 provinces, the aim of this study is to scale-up program delivery and evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of SSBC. To evaluate implementation, the number of staff trained/patients enrolled, attendance, sessions delivered as planned, delivery costs, and number of sites continuing to deliver the program will be examined. To evaluate program effectiveness, changes in patient health (e.g., T2D status, blood glucose, weight, exercise, diet) will be measured over 2 years following program completion.
This clinical study aims to explore the effects of 3 dietary supplements on metabolic parameters, liver fat content, and body composition in individuals with prediabetes. Prediabetes refers to a condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough for a diabetes diagnosis. The study will last for three months, during which participants will either take a dietary supplement or a placebo. Five groups will be studied, including placebo groups. Blood tests will assess glucose and lipid metabolism parameters, adipokines, and liver and kidney function. Liver stiffness and fat content will also be measured using elastography. Additionally, body composition will be assessed, and participants' psychological state, quality of life, eating habits and sports habits will be evaluated using questionnaires.
Tree nuts - such as almonds - contribute to beneficial effects of the Mediterranean diet on risk for cardiovascular events, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, inflammation and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Almonds provide few carbohydrates, but lots of unsaturated fat and dietary fiber. But to which extent and by which mechanisms may almonds improve all aspects of the Metabolic Syndrome? Previous clinical trials showed weaker effects than rodent studies, most possibly due to low statistical power and metabolically insusceptible patients. The 3-year AGAMEMNON project aims to investigate, if 16 weeks of supplementation with almonds (vs. no treatment) in 150 patients with prediabetes and NAFLD leads to significant improvements in glycemia and liver fat, lipid metabolism, body composition and inflammation. The isocaloric design will outrule effects of weight loss and will allow the analysis of metabolic pathways between fat depots, inflammation, insulin resistance and gut function. Lipidomics are assessed as novel predictor of disease progression and metabolic response.
SWIFT-CORE-101 is a single site survey study designed to assess potential participants' eligibility to screen for industry-sponsored clinical trials. A physician will oversee the informed consent process, after which participants will be surveyed on demographics, medical history, comorbidities, and current symptoms. Site staff may collect vital signs, urine drug screens, blood draws, and urine pregnancy tests. A doctor will review medical history with the participant to determine study suitability via clinical interview. The doctor may reach out to the patient's current treating physicians and pharmacies to determine eligibility for clinical trials.
The overall aim is to identify the dietary pattern for prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes. The specific aim of this pilot project is to compare effects of two diets with different diurnal distribution of carbohydrates and protein on the glucose metabolism in subjects with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes and its effects on inflammatory status.
People living with prediabetes are advised to lose weight to prevent development of type 2 diabetes by participating in intensive lifestyle interventions (ILI's), such as PreventT2. The PreventT2 program focuses on a low-calorie diet for weight loss. However, many people find it difficult to stick to a low-calorie diet over the long-term. The identification of novel, effective and individualized dietary strategies to produce long-term weight loss is critically important in diabetes prevention. An ILI based on PreventT2 which considers individual preferences, allowing participants to choose among a variety of diets, may result in greater adherence to the diet than a standard PreventT2 intervention. ILIs also need to be available to individuals in a wide range of communities, including Americans living in rural communities, who experience higher rates of obesity and chronic disease, yet have less access to medical care, including programs for diabetes prevention. The investigators plan to develop and carry out a 16-week pilot and feasibility study of a group-based ILI program based on PreventT2 plus choice of dietary strategy (Prevention and Choice for Type2 , PACT2) delivered via videoconference to adults with prediabetes living in rural communities. Successful completion of this project will result in the refinement of an ILI that incorporates personal preferences and is tailored to individuals at high risk for type 2 diabetes living in rural areas where access to such interventions is limited.
This study is designed to test the feasibility and acceptability of a new method for supporting physical activity among women ages 40-65 who have risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Each participant receives a trained physical activity coach and a physical activity partner; the partner is another woman in the program. Partners communicate with each other between weekly coaching sessions to provide support for physical activity behavior change.
With the aging of population and the change of lifestyle, the prevalence of prediabetes is increasing year by year. Nutritional factors are one of the important environmental factors in the occurrence and development of abnormal glucose metabolism. The medical nutritional treatment of diabetes is recommended as the cornerstone of diabetes treatment by various guidelines. With the development of nutrigenomics, it has been found that genes related to the absorption, metabolism, distribution and excretion of various nutrients are related to diabetes. This study intends to conduct precision nutrition intervention for prediabetic patients based on nutritional genes, and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of these nutritional interventions.
Guava (Psidium guajava) belongs to the Myrtle family. It is a tropical and subtropical fruit native to the Americas. Ripe guava fruit is sweet and delicious. It is rich in vitamins A, C and trace elements such as phosphorus, calcium and magnesium. In traditional medicine, guava fruit can be eaten raw, and the roots can treat stomach problems, abdominal pain, dysentery, and diabetes; the leaves can treat diabetes, abdominal pain, rheumatism, antipyretic, stomachache, anthelmintic, cholera, vomiting, diarrhea, enteritis and other symptoms. Guava leaf extract contains polyphenols. Studies have shown that guava leaf has antioxidant, blood sugar regulating and anti-cancer effects. Not only guava leaves, research has found that guava fruits are rich in vitamins, fiber and antioxidants, which have anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects. Preliminary research has found that the extract of red guava young fruit has more active ingredients - saponins and total polyphenol content, and its antioxidant capacity is also higher than that of mature guava. In vitro studies have found that guava fruit extract can increase the expression of GLUT4 gene and promote the entry of blood sugar into cells. At the same time, guava fruit extract can inhibit the formation of final glycated proteins (AGEs). The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of guava fruit extract on blood sugar regulation in humans and to evaluate its potential to be developed as a blood sugar regulation supplement.
