Filter by:Hypothesis : The maximum body weight in lifetime is associated with the onset of development of type 2 diabetes.
Hypothesis: A high cardiovascular risk is present in subjects with pre-diabetes in Hong Kong Chinese. The investigators plan to assess Chinese subjects in Hong Kong who have pre-diabetes (impaired fasting glucose, IFG; or impaired glucose tolerance, IGT) based on oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) on their cardiovascular risk status such as obesity, hypertension and lipid profile.
Moderate alcohol may be beneficial for diabetics
This study was intended to evaluate the effect of vitamin D supplementation on insulin sensitivity and pancreatic islet beta-cell function. Our hypothesis was that vitamin D supplementation to normal levels in patients with impaired fasting glucose will result in improved insulin sensitivity and improved beta cell function.
The Healthy Living Partnership to Prevent Diabetes (HELP PD) is a 300-participant randomized trial designed to test the effectiveness of a lay-health counselor led community-based diabetes prevention program in reducing blood glucose in people at risk for developing diabetes mellitus.
The purpose of this study is to better understand the link between obesity and diabetes or pre-diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to examine different ways of delivering the Group Lifestyle Balance (GLB) intervention (1). The GLB is a 12-week lifestyle change program based on the highly successful lifestyle program that was used in the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP)(2). A DVD of the Group Lifestyle Program has been developed. Conditions called metabolic syndrome and pre-diabetes increase the risk of diabetes and heart disease. Recent research has shown that type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome may be prevented or delayed by making lifestyle changes. Two local primary care practices will be randomly assigned to either the GLB-DVD intervention or usual care. Two additional practices will provide the GLB using trained preventionists for delivery. Approximately 15 patients will be recruited in each practice. It is not known if the GLB intervention works better than what is usually done at the present time for people with metabolic syndrome or pre-diabetes. It is hoped that this research study will provide information to help answer that question.
This is a randomized trial of an educational intervention to reduce the risk of diabetes among urban American Indian women
The purpose of this study is to determine if the naturopathic Anti-Inflammatory Diet results in reduced inflammation and a better response by the immune system when compared to a standard diabetic diet based on the current American Diabetes Association guidelines.
The secondary objective is to evaluate the agreement between these criteria and the prevalence of concordant and discordant according to different criteria.
