Filter by:The goal of this project is to co-design a healthcare provider-based produce prescription program (PPR) in partnership with the community served to improve participants' food security status, diet quality, and cardio-metabolic health outcomes, and to reduce healthcare costs, specifically related to medication use and hospital visits. Novel to this study is an implementation of a community co-designed randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a delayed intervention control group focused of equity (i.e., including the target population in the intervention designed for them) in design, implementation, and evaluation. The project will be conducted in 3 phases. Phase 1 will involve formative research and PPR co-design with community partners and potential participants through listening sessions, partner meetings, and community advisory group sessions to finalize the intervention protocol and components, for which investigators will then request IRB approval. Phase 2 will involve the implementation of a delayed intervention RCT PPR. Data analysis and final reporting will be conducted during Phase 3. Specific Aims: In collaboration with community partners and community members, utilize implementation science strategies to identify and address community, systemic, and structural barriers and assets to co-design a tailored produce prescription program (PPR) intervention that emphasizes health equity in a low-income population served by Griffin Hospital (GH) and/or Griffin Faculty Physicians (GFP). Hypothesis: Collaborating with our community partners on the design and implementation of a PPR will lead to a successful design and implementation of the PPR to our population of focus, as evidenced by satisfaction, retention, experiences of dignity/respect, improved self-efficacy related to fruit and vegetable consumption, and diet quality. Demonstrate improvements, in intervention group vs delayed intervention control group, in food security status, diet quality, and cardio-metabolic outcomes in individuals with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes through implementation of a tailored PPR in a low-income population served by GH and/or GFP. Hypothesis: The PPR designed with community input will improve food security status, diet quality, self-reported health related quality of life and cardio-metabolic outcomes (Hemoglobin A1C, weight/body mass index, lipids, blood pressure), among our intervention participants compared with a control over a 6-month period. Evaluate the impact of a tailored PPR on healthcare cost among low-income participants with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. Hypothesis: The successful implementation of the tailored PPR will lead to a reduction in certain healthcare cost specifically related to medication usage (including dose) and reduction in emergency department visit and/or hospitalization among intervention participants compared with a control over a 6-month period.
Diabetes/ prediabetes is a substantial problem in India not only because it itself can be associated with morbidities such as coronary artery disease but also because it is a point of importance for the prevention of other diseases. It is not clear if a high protein calorie diet in the Indian population associated with a heightened tendency for prediabetes, metabolic syndrome, atherosclerosis and dysmetabolic state etc. could, besides lifestyle factors, be related to diet, or interaction between the two. The analysis of whole blood transcriptomes and plasma metabolomics profiles may be a potentially useful tool for the assessment of metabolic health status. The proposed study is the first to perform a detailed gene expression profiling with the use of next-generation sequencing technology to assess the differences in molecular mechanisms in the peripheral blood of subjects with prediabetes.
Pre-diabetes is a state characterized by subclinical impairment in glycemic variables that is intermediate between normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and diabetes. There are two frequently used definitions for pre-diabetes, one from the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and another from the World Health Organization (WHO), and both include impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), impaired fasting glucose (IFG), and a calibrated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) of between 5.7 and 6.4%. More than 30 % of the global population demonstrated one or more forms of prediabetic dysglycaemia. In general, approximately 70 % of individuals with IFG and/or IGT can expect to go on to develop clinical type 2 diabetes at some time in the future, and the risk increases with higher HbA1c levels and with higher BMI. Worse still, the prevalence of pre-diabetes is increasing worldwide, with a growing number of patients progressing to diabetes. Identification and treatment of pre-diabetic individuals is therefore crucial. Recent evidence suggested that preventing progression of pre-diabetes to diabetes is possible, and thus efficacious interventions for pre-diabetic individuals are the cornerstone of diabetes prevention. The current paradigm for diabetes prevention in high-risk individuals focuses on achieving moderate weight loss via dietary change and increasing physical activity. However, lifestyle-based weight-loss strategies may initially be successful, but difficult to achieve or maintain. In many cases, pharmacologic treatments may be needed to regulate blood glucose. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) have verified the efficacy of metformin in preventing insulin resistance syndrome, along with the progression of microvascular diseases and heart attacks. Meanwhile, clinical experience and trial data have yielded almost no significant safety concerns for metformin. Nonetheless, it may cause discomfort for up to 25% of patients who experience diarrhea and nausea subsequent to its administration. For patients with a contraindication or intolerable adverse effects to metformin, Sodium Glucose Cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors with novel mode of action may be another alternative. Large clinical trials have not yet identified a substantial elevation in the frequency of adverse reactions related to SGLT-2 inhibitors when compared to the placebo group. Inhibition of SGLT-2 has some extra advantages for diabetes management over other therapeutic approaches. Firstly, the SGLT-2 is exclusively expressed in renal proximal tubules, and thus selective inhibitors will exert a glucose-lowering effect, independently of insulin secretion. Therefore, SGLT-2 inhibitors can cause weight loss without inducing major hypoglycemic events. Secondly, the cardiovascular benefits of SGLT-2 inhibitors was supported by large clinical trials in the modern context of antiplatelet, statin, and blood pressure management, which may match many of the advantages of metformin. Thirdly, SGLT-2 inhibitors have also been proven to prevent nephropathy for its restriction on albuminuria and inflammatory processes, and to subsequently dampen the deterioration in renal function. Overall, SGLT-2 inhibitors have demonstrated safety in non-diabetic patients, particularly in those afflicted with heart or kidney failure, and have shown to provide additional benefits. At present, the overall effectiveness and safety of SGLT-2 inhibitors in improving metabolism of pre-diabetic patients are still unclear. The purpose of this experiment is to evaluate the effect of SGLT-2 inhibitor on pre-diabetic patients.
Th purpose of this study is to determine whether ADI-PEG20 (PEGylated arginine deiminase), an arginine catabolizing enzyme preparation, improves insulin sensitivity, mitochondrial respiration, and energy utilization in adolescents with prediabetes.
The study aims to investigate the effects of oral inositols on insulin-resistance and metabolic variables (triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol) in children aged 8-12 years with obesity and insulin-resistance.
Aim: To assess the efficacy of different frequencies of physical exercise on glycaemic control in adults with prediabetes. Methods: parallel, randomised, controlled, clinical trial will be carried out, with a total of 90 participants. Exercise modality that showed the best glycaemic control in first phase of GLYCEX study (NCT05612698) will be used. Participantds will be randomised in 3 groups: 1) frequency of 5 days/week, 2) frequency of 3 days/week and 3) frequency of 2 days/week. Data collection will be performed at baseline and after 15-weeks of follow up. Sociodemographic data, medication, comorbidity, blood biochemical parameters, blood pressure, anthropometric measurements, body composition, physical activity, sedentary lifestyle, diet, smoking, alcohol consumption, quality of life and sleep questionnaires will be collected. Physical activity, sedentary behaviour and sleep will be further determined with an accelerometer, and continuous glycaemia will be determined with a glycaemic monitor, both during seven days, in two time points. The main dependent variable will be the reduction of the mean amplitude of glycaemic excursions. The impact of the interventions on health will also be evaluated through gene expression analysis in peripheral blood cells. Discussion: The results of this study will contribute to better understanding of the response of glucose mechanisms to physical exercise in a population with prediabetes as well as improving physical exercise prescriptions for diabetes prevention. Increasing glycaemic control in people with prediabetes through physical exercise offers an opportunity to prevent diabetes and reduce associated comorbidities and health costs.
This is a prospective, double blinded, randomised cross over feeding trial examine high or low FODMAP diet in combination with metformin on postprandial glucose responses and gastrointestinal tolerability and gut microbiota profiles. The trial will compare high or low FODMAP diet, each of 10 days duration in combination with 5 days metformin, separated by a washout period of at least 2 weeks.
To assess the efficacy of different modalities and frequencies of physical exercise on glycaemic control in adults with prediabetes. Methods: four-arm, parallel, randomised, controlled, clinical trial, with a total of 120 participants. A total of 90 participants will be randomized in three arms: 1) aerobic exercise, 2) aerobic exercise combined with resistance, and 3) high-intensity intervallic exercise. Moreover, a control group (n=30) will be included to evaluate the effect of any type of intervention versus no intervention. Data collection will be performed at baseline and 15-week of follow-up. Socio-demographic data, medication, comorbidity, blood biochemical parameters, blood pressure, anthropometric measurements, body composition, physical activity, sedentary lifestyle, diet, smoking, alcohol consumption, quality of life and sleep questionnaires will be collected. The main dependent variable will be the decrease of fasting plasma glucose. Moreover, a subsample of participants (n=40) will were an accelerometer and a continuous glycaemia monitoring during 7 days, in 2 time points. The impact of the interventions on health will be also evaluated through gene expression analysis in peripheral blood cells, widely used in clinical diagnosis in the same subsample. Discussion: The results of this study will contribute to improving physical exercise prescriptions for diabetes prevention, as well as a better understanding of the response of glucose mechanisms to physical exercise in a population with prediabetes. Increasing glycaemic control in people with prediabetes through physical exercise offers an opportunity to prevent diabetes and reduce associated comorbidities and health costs.
Aim: The aim of this study is to determine whether a prediabetes mobile application (PREDIABE-TR) designed in Turkish to inform and advise individuals at risk of developing diabetes about healthy eating and physical exercise can make a difference in the participants' eating according to the Mediterranean Diet Plan, or in their physical activity and other diabetes-related metabolic parameters. Methods: A total of 120 adults at risk of developing diabetes will be assigned into an experimental and a control group by means of Stratified Permuted Block Randomization. The adults in the experimental group will be using the PREDIABE-TR mobile application for a period of 6 months. Over the same period, the control group will use the Turkish Nutrition Guide and the Diabetes Checklists mobile application distributed by the Turkish Ministry of Health. At the end of the six-month period, a review will be made of the diabetes metabolic data, physical activity levels and the Mediterranean Diet eating behaviors. At the same time, an assessment will be made of the control group's use of the mobile application with the help of the Mobile Application Usability Scale. Statistical data will be analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences program. Discussion: The benefits of interventions to promote a healthy lifestyle are evident in terms of preventing a transition from prediabetes to diabetes and maintaining present status. The current novel coronavirus pandemic has clearly shown the advantages of and necessity for remote interventions. In this study, we will attempt to determine whether or not the use of the PREDIABE-TR mobile application can promote a healthy lifestyle and achieve a reduced risk of diabetes. Impact: This study will serve to provide evidence of the practicality, acceptability and cost effectiveness of various applications (such as mobile apps) that can be an alternative to face-to-face consultation and other medical practices. This alternative can be suggested to policy- and decision-makers. Such applications can also be considered preventive strategies.
The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of the iCan Diabetes Self-Management and Prevention Support Group using a single arm clinical trial. The program is composed of six weekly sessions, and it will be implemented with 60 adults (aged 18 years or older) who have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes and evaluated using mixed methods. A pre-test will be conducted before the program implementation and a post-test will be conducted three months after the pre-test. Focus groups will be conducted shortly after the last session to obtain feedback on the program. Between the last session and the post-test, weekly emails/texts will be sent to keep participants engaged and maximize retention rate.
