Filter by:The study design is a prospective observational study in adolescents who are at risk for developing Type 2 Diabetes (T2D), to evaluate the effectiveness of sparkling water to reduce dietary intake of added sugars and thereby improve glycemia. Study data on consumption and the flavor profile of sparkling water will serve as a measure of acceptability. The study intervention will be to provide carbonated flavored sparkling water for 12 weeks to adolescents (and their families) who have a usual intake of 2 or more servings of sugar sweetened beverages (SSB) per day and are at a high risk for developing type 2 diabetes. Study measures will be obtained before and after the exposure to carbonated flavored sparkling water and each participant will serve as his/her own control. To encourage the participants to substitute the carbonated flavored sparkling water, study personnel will send them weekly iMessages through the Technology Assisted Dietary Assessment (TADA) app. In addition, investigators will monitor the participants' diet, using the TADA app, every two weeks, for 4 days. Study measurements will be obtained at baseline, before the intervention, during and at the end of the 12 week intervention. Objective: Determine the effect of reducing added sugars intake by substituting carbonated sparkling water on T2D risk in adolescents. Hypothesis: Adolescents who decrease consumption of SSB by substituting sparkling water will experience decreased blood glucose concentrations and increased insulin sensitivity during an oral glucose tolerance test and decreased glucose excursions during continued glucose monitoring, compared to those who do not decrease consumption of SSB.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate changes in HbA1c levels, diet, weight and waist circumference in Small Steps for Big Changes (SSBC) diabetes prevention program participants two year after program completion compared to before they took part in the program. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Are changes in caloric, carbohydrate, and fibre intake associated with HbA1c levels after SSBC program completion in the short (3- and 6- months), medium (9- and 12- months) and long-term (21- and 24- months)? 2. Are changes in caloric, carbohydrate, and fibre intake associated with anthropometrics (weight and waist circumference) after program completion in the short (3- and 6- months), medium (9- and 12- months) and long-term (21- and 24- months)? 3. Are eating motives associated with dietary intake in individuals with prediabetes? 4. Does participation in SSBC result in changes to eating motives over time? It is hypothesized that: 1. Dietary changes will be associated with HbA1c levels at 3-, 6-,12- and 24- months post-intervention. 2. Dietary changes will be associated with weight and waist circumference at 3-, 6-, and 12-months post-intervention. 3. Participants' eating motives are associated with their dietary intake. 4. Eating motives will change after partaking in SSBC and at 3-, 6-, 12- months post intervention. A total number of 250 individuals with prediabetes will be recruited to take part in a 6-week diet and exercise changes program (SSBC). The program will be administered and facilitated by the community facility trainers at YMCA locations. Participants will be asked to visit Diabetes Prevention Research Group (DPRG) Lab in the University of British Columbia Okanagan Campus for Hba1c (primary outcome), anthropometric measurements and dietary assessment.
Although African traditional fermented foods have been linked to health benefits, research pertaining to the use of uniform products in the control of blood glucose is lacking. This study is aimed at assessing the effectiveness of African traditional fermented foods at reducing blood sugar amongst adult pre-diabetic patients. This study shall comprise a multi-centre parallel (3-arm) randomized controlled trial of a fermented milk product, a fermented cereal-based product, and standard medical care. 252 pre-diabetic adults shall be recruited from 12 treatment facilities located at 4 Counties (3 clinics from each County) across Kenya. The primary outcome is change in glycated haemoglobin. Secondary outcomes shall include, change in weight (BMI), waist circumference, levels of fasting plasma glucose, C reactive protein and lipid profile. Safety as well as the acceptability and experience of fermented foods as a treatment modality for pre-diabetes will additionally be assessed amongst study participants. At each study site, data comprising clinical measurements and responses from self-report questionnaires shall be collected over a follow-up period of 12 weeks. Two focus group discussions shall additionally be held in week 13. Comparison of the mean changes between the three groups shall be carried out using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). Pairwise comparisons shall additionally be undertaken using linear mixed regression models.
The term sexual (SD) dysfunction covers conditions that prevent people from having a satisfactory sex life. SD is a frequent and sometimes debilitating complication of mental illness and a known adverse reaction to psycho-pharmacological treatment. SD is also associated with diabetes, a common somatic comorbidity in psychiatric patients. SD is associated with both reduced quality-of-life and reduced treatment adherence, yet SD is far too rarely addressed between the patient and the healthcare professional in clinical consultations. The purpose of the study is to investigate whether targeted education of patients with schizophrenia and diabetes/prediabetes and/or their healthcare professionals in causes and management of SD: - Increases the number of systematic examinations of sexual side effects, - Causes changes in the psycho-pharmacological treatment, and - Reduces the severity or perception of sexual side effects. The study is a multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) with four arms, in which the educational intervention is provided to patients, healthcare professionals, or both groups. The effect of the educational intervention is compared to a non-educated control group. The study is expected to include 192 patients recruited from 16 assertive community treatment centers evenly distributed in four Danish regions. The study is part of an interdisciplinary project named SECRET. The educational intervention was developed in an ethnographic pre-study incorporating stakeholder engagement. Parallel to the present RCT, an ethnographic field study will be carried out to broaden the perspective on the effects of the intervention.
The primary objective is to investigate the effect of apple polyphenol supplementation for 12 weeks on glucose homeostasis in prediabetic individuals. Further, this study has three secondary objectives: 1) to investigate whether daily supplementation at breakfast and dinner with apple polyphenols for 12 weeks affects the rhythm of glucose uptake over the day and reduces fasting glucose levels and postprandial glucose peaks; 2) to determine the effect of daily supplementation with apple polyphenols for 12 weeks on biomarkers of metabolic health; 3) to assess whether daily supplementation with apple polyphenols for 12 weeks alters fecal SCFA concentrations and fecal microbiota composition.
The topic of diet and physical activity are of great importance in the treatment of T2D. In the daily routine of a practice or clinic, a doctor has an average of eight minutes per patient, leaving little time for lifestyle issues (Irving et al. 2017). An individualised procedure requires more time and therefore more resources. Currently, an app can be programmed with evidence-based information so that it provides appropriate personalised behavioural recommendations via machine learning. The user gets direct feedback and can make a behavioural change himself. On the one hand, this approach allows better use of doctor-patient time and, on the other hand, the patient learns through positive reinforcement in such a way that his or her behaviour change is supported and reinforced in the longer term and potentially sustainably. The aim of this intervention pilot study within the scope of the EU-Horizon 2020 project is to investigate lifestyle support through a mobile app and wearables to improve lifestyle (personalised nutrition) and important metabolic outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes. In addition, exploratory genetic and microbiome data will be explored to answer the question of personalisation of the recommendations.
An increase in body fat, even when within the normal BMI range is one of the essential drivers of T2DM in Asian Indians. In this context, the relationship between excess hepatic fat and pancreatic fat appears to be necessary. A low-calorie (high protein and low carb) vegetarian diet with appropriate exercise, in a protocol similar to the DiRECT study, may lead to weight loss, reversal of diabetes, and decrease in ectopic fat.
This work aimed to evaluate the acute effect of a black bean protein hydrolysate (BPH) on glucose levels in adults with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and prediabetes. Twenty peptides were identified in BPH, and a followed in silico predictive digestion showed a release of several short-chain peptides with potential hypoglycemic potential. A double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial was conducted on 28 adults with NGT or prediabetes. After consent, participants were randomized into two groups, placebo or the corresponding 5 g BPH treatment. An oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) (75 g glucose) was used to measure glucose tolerance before treatment. A second OGTT was used to evaluate the acute effect of the BPH, and blood samples were collected at 0, 60, 120, and 150 min, and blood glucose levels were measured.
Time-restricted eating (TRE) is a dietary manipulation that involves restricting food intake to 6-12 h/day with no energy intake the rest of the day. In rodents, TRE improves metabolic function without caloric restriction, potentially by activating nutrient sensing mechanisms and effects on circadian oscillations. However, an understanding of the effect of TRE on cardiometabolic health in people is not clear and few studies have evaluated this issue. Accordingly, the investigators propose to conduct a randomized controlled trial in people with obesity and prediabetes to determine the effect of 9 h TRE for 12 weeks, without a change in body weight, on key metabolic outcomes that are risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD): 1) multi-organ insulin sensitivity; 2) 24 h metabolic homeostasis and diurnal rhythm; and 3) adipose tissue and skeletal muscle biology. The proposed studies will elucidate the cardiometabolic implications of TRE in people with obesity and prediabetes.
- Prediabetes is an intermediate state of hyperglycemia with glycemic parameters above normal but below the diabetes threshold.. - during the average 3 years of follow-up Prediabetes is diagnosed based on laboratory tests: fasting plasma glucose level (100-125 mg/dl) ;HbA1c, (5.7-6.4%) or plasma glucose level after an oral glucose tolerance test ( 140-199 mg/dl). - Reports estimate that more than 470 million people will have prediabetes by 2030. - According to an expert panel of the American Diabetes Association, up to 70% of individuals with prediabetes will eventually develop diabetes. - Observational evidence suggests as association between prediabetes and complications of diabetes such early nephropathy(10%) , small fiber neuropathy(18-25 %), early retinopathy (8-12%) and risk of macrovascular disease (52%) . - Screening for prediabetes is designed to save lives or enhance an individual's quality of life by early detection so that screening will minimize the risk of developing diabetes or its complications .
