The overall aim of this study is to investigate the long-term impact of a customized diet aimed at reducing liver fat specifically and a healthy Nordic diet on ectopic fat (liver, pancreatic and visceral) and cardiometabolic risk in individuals with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes (T2D).
Compared to other races, Indians have higher insulin resistance, poorer pancreatic function and a greater risk of developing diabetes, highlighting the importance of early strategies for improving insulin sensitivity and improving pancreatic function in Indians to prevent diabetes and lower the risk of heart disease. A low carbohydrate diet can deplete fat from undesirable places, such as fat around organs in the abdominal cavity. In this study, we will determine if restriction of dietary carbohydrates will deplete fat in the pancreas and liver, and improve insulin sensitivity and early insulin secretion in Indians. These changes may prevent diabetes from developing. Hepatic and pancreatic fat will be measured using magnetic resonance imaging. Insulin sensitivity and secretion will be measured during an oral glucose tolerance test. In addition, this study will investigate if the higher insulin resistance in Indians is due to genes that cause the inability to store fat in the legs. The results on the type of diet that is more effective for reducing pancreatic and hepatic fat is important for informing dietary guidelines on the use of low carbohydrate diets for diabetes prevention, particularly in Indians who have a higher risk of developing diabetes.
This randomized crossover trial will investigate the metabolic responses following the consumption of a bagel+juice meal under 3 conditions: control, fiber (positive control), and postmeal walk in15 healthy adults. It is hypothesized that the postmeal walk will reduce glycemia, insulinemia, and oxidative stress similar to fiber.
This research aims to find an effective dietary intervention among the Pakistani population. According to WHO, diabetes is on the rise in developing countries; the current prevalence among the Pakistani population is 11.2% which is expected to increase in the coming years which is in line with the similar documented trend in neighboring south Asian countries.3,11 Since, ethnic south Asians carry a greater risk for developing T2D at a younger age and along with the complications associated with diabetes due to its chronicity, this poses a significant threat and an increased disease burden on the health care system.11 This will be the first trial conducted on determining the efficacy of caloric restriction in a subset of Pakistani population. There is limited inconsistent data on the efficacy of time-restricted feeding, however, this will help elucidate if it does lead to positive effects on the bio-health markers. One of the major hurdles in caloric restriction is patient compliance, therefore, one of the intervention group will be used to determine if TRF with caloric restriction helps improve the patient's compliance and produces significant results. If such an intervention is effective in inducing weight loss it can also be applied for other overweight patients. Eventually, it will help in countering the rising obesity in the region. The ultimate purpose of the knowledge obtained is to find a patient friendly, novel and therapeutic dietary intervention which will help in limiting the rise in T2D patients. It'll help in introducing an effective lifestyle intervention to promote health, which will reduce the dependence on pharmacological therapies, as well as, in the long-term reduce burden on the health care system. The information obtained can provide framework for new guidelines in helping the patients to lose weight, which can be utilized by the government to increase general awareness which will help prevent diseases linked to obesity. In light of the randomized controlled trial, the primary health physicians can educate and increase awareness regarding the different dietary interventions the patients can utilize which will help increase the number of options for the patients. Social media platforms can be utilized due to their extended outreach for the transmission of accurate information to the general population.
This pilot randomized controlled trial seeks: (1) to determine the preliminary efficacy of our modernized collaborative care intervention for depression in improving the diabetes risk markers of hemoglobin A1c and insulin resistance and (2) to explore whether somatic depressive symptoms - i.e., hyperphagia (increased appetite/weight) and/or hypersomnia (increased sleep) - moderate the effect of the eIMPACT-DM intervention on diabetes risk markers.
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of Metabolic Rheostat™ and Butyrate Ultra on blood glucose levels after a liquid meal challenge in patients with prediabetes. In addition, the study also aims to look at the effect of Metabolic Rheostat™ and Butyrate Ultra on weight, HgbA1c, fasting glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, inflammation markers, and hormones.
The Dance for Diabetes program was designed as a community service project for the North Carolina Albert Schweitzer Fellowship. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of the project and its impact on participants. This study will assess whether a group dance workshop along with diabetes education can help people with diabetes and prediabetes.
This clinical study aims to assess the efficacy of TOTUM-63, a mix of 5 plant extracts, consumed at the daily regimen of three times per day on glucose and lipid homeostasis in dysglycemic subjects. The hypothesis is that TOTUM-63, consumed 3 times per day, is superior to placebo for decrease of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) concentration after 24 weeks of consumption.
Background: The rising levels of physical inactivity in the Eastern Mediterranean region (43.2%) and in the United Arab Emirates (38%) compared with the global levels of physical inactivity (31.2%) is alarming (6,15). Therefore, action is required to reduce physical inactivity using evidence-based strategies. This study aims to provide scientific evidence that if the workplace environment promotes behavior change, physical activity levels could increase and, therefore, improve health. Objective: Primary objective: to determine whether the workplace exercise intervention will improve the cardio-metabolic risk components for the employees. Secondary objective: to determine whether the workplace exercise intervention will improve physical activity levels even after 4 weeks of completing the intervention. Methods: A total of 150 participants will be recruited from a semi-government telecommunication company after meeting the eligibility criteria; 75 will be assigned to the intervention group and 75 to the delayed intervention group. Intervention: The Intervention group will receive 2 hours of exercise per week during working hours for 12 weeks. One hour can be used per day. The intervention group will be assigned to attend personal trainer sessions in the workplace gym during the intervention. After the intervention is completed the delayed intervention group will also receive 2 hours of exercise time per week from working hours for 4 weeks. Expected results: There is a statistically significant difference in the primary and secondary health outcome between the intervention group and delayed intervention group. Expected conclusion: Increasing exercise time in the workplace is associated with favorable cardio-metabolic risk profile.
