Filter by:The aim of the current study is to identify the optimal exercise intensity of the high-intensity phase during a bout of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) to increase glucose clearance in a prediabetic population. The study is a within-subjects randomised crossover design with participants attending the laboratory on seven occasions over a two week period. The first visit will be to perform medical screening and to obtain informed consent. The second visit will be to collect baseline measures, select meal plans, to collect an activity tracker and to complete a ramped exercise test to establish exercise intensity thresholds. The third visit will be to fit an interstitial glucose sensor and to collect the standardised meals which will be provided to each participant. Visits four, five, and six will be the experimental trials. The seventh visit will be to remove the interstitial glucose sensor and return the activity tracker.
The obesity rate in Malaysia is higher than the average world obesity rate. Central obesity is a component of metabolic syndrome (MetS) which is also made up of dyslipidemia, impaired glucose tolerance, and hypertension. MetS is a continuum in the risk of developing cardiometabolic complication. Time Restricted Feeding (TRF) involves an extended physiological overnight fast. Researchers believe that the timing of meal intake that matches with the circadian rhythms is as important as the calories intake to prevent obesity and its complications. The investigators hypothesize that TRF is effective in weight control and improvement of metabolic severity. Subjects will be randomized into either the control group, which practices QQH dietary plan or intervention group, which practices TRF as an adjunct to QQH dietary plan. Subjects will be followed up at week 12 and week 24 to assess adherence, efficacy and safety of TRF. This study intends to fill a few research gaps as follows: 1. Longer study duration of 6 months. 2. This is the first study amongst the Asian population. 3. Adherence level to TRF in real life setting is measured. This information can potentially predict the intensity level of TRF that are feasible for practice in real life and also its association with the efficacy of TRF. 4. TRF is defined as eating within a≤12-hour period and fasting for at least 12 hours per day. This is the shortest fasting window studied so far.
The purpose of this study is to see if continuous glucose monitoring can identify how often people who have pre-diabetes or medical obesity or well-controlled diabetes experience very high glucose values while receiving chemotherapy for breast cancer or pancreatic.
The study examines the effect of black currant on glucose and insulin concentrations after a meal. In addition, the cytokine and free fatty acids levels are of interest.
This study aims to determine the most effective strategy of reducing sedentary behavior to improve health. Specifically, we aim to answer the following questions: (a) To determine if there is a significant difference in acute post-prandial glucose response between continuous sitting and two intermittent standing regimes (high frequency, low duration breaks (HFLD) and low frequency, high duration breaks (LFHD)). We hypothesize that intermittent standing (combined HFLD breaks and LFHD breaks regimes) will result in lower overall acute post-prandial glucose compared to continuous sitting. (b) To determine if there is a significant difference in acute post-prandial glucose response between two strategies to reduce sitting with standing (HFLD standing breaks vs. LFHD standing breaks). We hypothesize that the HFLD breaks condition will elicit lower acute post-prandial glucose level compared to the LFHD breaks condition. All eligible participants will be consented and subjected to all three study conditions: (i) Uninterrupted sitting, (ii) HFLD breaks, and (iii) LFHD breaks. The order at which participants were subjected to these conditions will be randomly determined and each condition were performed a week apart. Standardized meals (breakfast and lunch) will be provided during each lab visit and participants will be then be asked to perform their usual work activity using a sit-stand workstation in the lab. Depending on their assigned condition, the participants will be prompted to stand or sit for a given period of time. A continuous glucose monitor will be used to measure glucose response to the intervention while an activPAL device will be used to make sure that participants are compliant with the study protocol.
It consists in the intake, during a period of 10 weeks, of a nutraceutical (natural extract of Sclerocarya birrea). It is a clinical trial, during which certain parameters of the glucidic metabolism will be measured analytically. Other secondary variables such as lipid profile, inflammatory markers, blood pressure, endothelial function and body composition will also be determined.
Prediabetes is a major risk factor for diabetes. The Lifestyle Modification Mobile Health Application (APP) could not only help to decrease blood sugar among individuals with prediabetes but it could also prevent a later occurrence of diabetes. While many people use traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to improve the participants body constitution in Chinese culture, it rarely if ever obtained through a mobile device. There are very few apps that provide effective TCM regimen-based lifestyle advice for prediabetes. Therefore, the investigators want to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of receiving TCM regimen-based lifestyle advice from a mobile device designed to improve the applicant's health status.
The goal of this protocol is to evaluate the effect of addhing linagliptin to patients with prediabetes who do not reverse to normoglycemia after 12 months of treatment with metformin alone. The duration of the study will be 6 months, and it is primarily a efficacy study. Main outcomes will be glucose levels during OGTT, insulin secretion and pancreatic beta cell function measured by the disposition index derived from the OGTT.
This study describes a community-based participatory research (CBPR) approach to design a novel faith-enhancement to the diabetes prevention program (DPP) for AA women. A long-standing CBPR partnership designed the faith-enhancement from focus group data. The faith components were specifically linked to weekly DPP learning objectives to strategically emphasize behavioral skills with religious principles. Using a CBPR approach, the Better Me Within trial was able to enroll 12 churches, screen 333 AA women, and randomize 221 after collection of objective eligibility measures. A prospective, randomized, nested by church, design was used to evaluate the faith-enhanced DPP as compared to a standard DPP on weight, diabetes and cardiovascular risk, over a 16-week intervention and 10-month follow up.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness a 13-week community based nutrition education program to assist participants program in improving in physical and emotional well being and to assess if there are differences in outcomes based on a participant's socioeconomic status.
