Filter by:Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease in developed countries affecting approximately 30 % of the general adult population. It represents an important pathogenic factor in the development of type 2-diabetes and is associated with a high risk of cardiovascular disease. Previous studies of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have demonstrated an increased risk for NAFLD and the presence of both CKD and NAFLD is likely to increase the risk for cardiovascular disease. The present protocol describes a study of the prevalence and etiology of NAFLD among patients scheduled for kidney transplantation and the possible effect of kidney transplantation on NAFLD. The project is a prospective cohort study. The effect of kidney transplantation in patients with prediabetes or normal glucose tolerance compared to healthy controls will be examined regarding development and progression of fat accumulation in the liver. Fat accumulation in the liver will be determined by magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy and the prevalence of NAFLD in the two groups will be investigated. A continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for four days, Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) scanning, fibro scanning of the liver, bile acid analysis, metabolomic and lipidomic analysis will also be performed. An oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and an intra venous glucose infusion (IIGI) will be performed.
This study will test the weight loss efficacy of a mobile diabetes prevention program intervention. Half of the sample of prediabetic adults will receive the virtual DPP and half will receive usual medical care.
This is a single-blind, randomized trial. Based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, 253 eligible volunteers, who were 25-60 years old, with overweight/obese and prediabetes are assigned to one of three dietary patterns: healthy Jiangnan, restricted-calorie; Mediterranean, restricted-calorie; or typical Shanghai, restricted-calorie. The Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences(CAS) cooperated with Ruijin Hospital to conduct the study which is funded by the CAS. The study' protocol has been approved by the Ethics Committee of Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences. The main purpose of this study is to clarify: the efficacy of traditional Jiangnan dietary pattern, Mediterranean dietary pattern and the current Shanghai dietary pattern in improving overweight/obesity, glucose homeostasis, other cardiovascular metabolic risk factors and their main regulatory factors in Chinese.
The aim of the present study is to investigate effects of 12 weeks time-restricted eating on behaviour and metabolism in individuals with overweight or obesity at high risk of type 2 diabetes.
Melatonin is a hormone that regulates the circadian cycle in addition to having an antioxidant effect. Patients with prediabetes state, has a deregulation of glucose metabolism and an overproduction of reactive oxygen species caused by levels of hyperglycemia that generate DNA modification in pancreatic beta cells, which leads to apoptosis and a deficient production of insulin. The administration of metformin and melatonin could be a possibility to treat and reverse the prediabetic state decreasing the glycemic levels and reactive oxygen species production.
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether intermittent use of continuous glucose monitor will facilitate weight loss in individuals who are overweight/obese with prediabetes.
Diabetes is a major health concern in obese older Veterans, especially in those who are African American. The negative impact of diabetes on muscle and physical function contributes to metabolic as well as physical decline and is under-studied. This randomized controlled trial compares a higher-protein, weight loss regimen previously shown to improve physical function to an Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) protein intervention in obese older male Veterans with pre-diabetes and functional limitations. Equal numbers of white and black male Veterans will be studied, filling gaps in the investigators' knowledge of differential responses by race as well as obesity interventions for men in general. The primary outcome is functional performance by Short Physical Performance Battery and secondary measures include muscle quality, insulin sensitivity, lean body mass, physical activity, recent falls and fear of falling, instrumental activities of daily living, and quality of life measured at 0, 3 and 6 months. The goal of this research is to accelerate functional recovery and enhance independence in obese male Veterans, which is strongly aligned with the RR&D mission to "maximize the physical and social autonomy of Veterans".
The primary objective of STAR01 is to evaluate the performance and safety of the medical device (class IIb) SiPore15™ after a 12-week long treatment in the target population of obese and overweight subjects with prediabetes or newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes. The expected performance and safety of the device is based on the safety and efficacy results seen in an earlier First-in-Man (FIM) study. The safety and tolerability of SiPore15™ is based on the well-established and extensive use of food grade silicon dioxide and favorable data from the FIM study. Data on side-effects will be collected for verification of device safety. The study duration is 24 weeks in total, 12 weeks from baseline on investigational medicinal device (IMD) treatment, with additional 12 weeks off treatment. The study population is planned for forty (40) subjects to be enrolled, male and females, age >18 years and fulfilling all inclusion criteria but none of the exclusion criteria.
The aim of the study is to compare the endocrine function of pancreas between pre and post metabolic surgery in patients with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes. The study will examine the endocrine function of pancreas using 18F-FDOPA PET/CT imaging and various biochemical laboratory tests
The objective of this study is to compare two metabolically distinct diets, WFKD vs Med-Plus, in order to examine the potential benefits, and unintended consequences, of going beyond a focus on maximally avoiding added sugars and refined grains, to also avoiding legumes, fruits, and whole grains.
