Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of an electronic medical record clinical decision support tool on rates of dysglycemia in the hospital, and its clinical and economical outcomes. The study also evaluates the perspectives of providers regarding the tool's usefulness on disease management support, knowledge, and practice performance.
The overall purpose of this study is to identify how empagliflozin (a drug commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes) impacts skeletal muscle metabolic health among adults with prediabetes. Our aims are to: 1) Test the ability of empagliflozin to improve regulation of glucose metabolism (i.e., blood sugar) among overweight and obese individuals at risk for diabetes, and 2) Identify mechanisms to explain how empagliflozin may improve skeletal muscle glucose metabolism. We hypothesize empagliflozin will improve regulation of glucose metabolism due to changes in whole-body and skeletal muscle metabolism (e.g., increased rates of whole-body fat oxidation, evidence of impaired skeletal muscle mitochondrial respiratory function and increased energetic stress, lower accumulation of skeletal muscle lipids and improved skeletal muscle insulin signaling compared with placebo treatment).
The objective of the study is to determine the effect of dairy consumption on insulin sensitivity in overweight and obese adults with prediabetes. Men and women (30-65 y) will be recruited from the greater Montreal area. Upon screening, those with prediabetes will complete a 2-wk run-in period in which participants will consume 1 serving/d of reduced-fat dairy. Adherent participants will be randomized by sex into 1 of 3 groups: ≤1 serving/d of dairy (limited dairy) or 2-3 servings/d of reduced-fat or regular-fat dairy for 12 weeks. Participants will be instructed on how to incorporate foods into their diet in a manner that prevents changes in their body weight. The hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp will be used before and after the intervention to document potential changes in insulin sensitivity as the primary outcome. In addition, glycemic variables, body composition, and cardiometabolic risk factors will be assessed as secondary outcomes. Serum lipidomic and global gene expression responses to the intervention in subcutaneous adipose tissue will be measured as exploratory variables. Adherence to intervention will be assessed at each visit by food diaries, a record of consumed dairy products, and serum proportion of 15:0, 17:0, and t16:1n7 fatty acids as objective biomarkers of dairy fat intake.
The purpose of our study is to understand the impact of different meal timing alterations on blood sugars, metabolism, microbiome and sleep physiology in people with prediabetes and diabetes; and to study the temperature/heart rate response to different meals in different people.
This study will examine whether a physical activity program, specifically increasing walking steps, offered over the internet is able to increase physical activity in adults with prediabetes. The study will take place over 12 weeks. The investigators want to see if people who receive the intervention increase their physical activity more than people who do not receive the intervention. The physical activity program will include using a pedometer to track daily step counts online, set weekly goals, and receive motivational messages delivered weekly using email. The investigators are also going to collect data on waist circumference, body weight and quality of life at baseline, 12 weeks and 16 weeks after the intervention has completed to see if these change over the course of the study. The investigators will be recruiting 200 adults who have attended the Edmonton, Alberta prediabetes education class offered by Alberta Health Services, Nutrition Services and report they have prediabetes. If able to successfully increase physical activity, this study will identify a web and home-based intervention that can be offered to individuals who participate in lifestyle programs delivered in primary care settings (e.g., Edmonton prediabetes program) in both rural and urban locations.
The aim of this study is to determine the effects of blood flow restriction training on glycemic control and functional activity in participants with prediabetes. Moreover, This study determine the effects of blood flow restriction training on quality of life in participants with prediabetes
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether continuous glucose monitors (CGM) are a safe, effective, and acceptable way to evaluate type 2 diabetes risk in youth as compared to the standard 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). This study will involve wearing a CGM, wearing a physical activity tracker, responding to surveys, and completing at-home glucose and mixed food challenge while wearing the CGM. Subjects will also be asked to complete an interview by phone or videoconference after wearing the CGM.
The purpose of this project is to improve the quality of weight management care for patients with pre-diabetes and overweight or obesity. Personalized risk profiles, clinical decision support, and patient-centered decision tools for understanding pre-diabetes risk and the likelihood of preventing diabetes with a modest 5-7% weight loss will be developed. This project will offer patients their choice of effective weight management treatment options, each containing the cornerstone of weight management- intensive lifestyle intervention. Patients and PCPs will be better informed and equipped with information that helps them make weight management treatment decisions that work the best for their lifestyle, and each is expected to produce at least 5-7% weight loss over 6 months.
The purpose of this pilot trial is to compare feasibility and effectiveness of remote delivery (social media or video conferencing) of the National Diabetes Prevention Program (N-DPP) to adults in rural communities. The research team will train a Kansas State Research and Extension staff to deliver the video conferencing arm while a research team member will lead the social media arm.
The incidence of type 2 diabetes worldwide is growing rapidly, being one of the fastest growing global health emergencies of the 21st century according to the International Diabetes Federation. In MicrobiAr the investigators seek to achieve type 2 diabetes remission through a plant-based diet and lifestyle intervention identifying and characterizing key changes on the gut microbiome during clinical transitions. Specifically, the investigators aim to characterize and follow-up metabolic pathways from gut microbiome and how they evolve as long as health indicators do over the 2 years of this study.
