Several free fatty acids receptors (FFARs) have been discovered. These have been implicated in metabolic processes and inflammation. Consequently, these receptors have attracted interest as targets for the treatment of metabolic and inflammatory diseases, including obesity and type 2 diabetes. Two of these FFARs (FFA1, FFA4), which is activated by specific free fatty acids (FFAs), is expressed on enteroendocrine cells, pancreatic beta-cells and adipocytes. They have been linked to 1) increased glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion and hence the incretin-mediated increase in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) and suppression of glucagon secretion, 2) a direct positive effect on GSIS, 3) reduced inflammation and 4) improved insulin sensitivity. These functions and the abundance of fatty acids in food suggest that FFARs can be considered as nutrient sensing regulators of metabolism. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), frequently results in immediate beneficial effects on glucose metabolism and often complete remission of type 2 diabetes. This may in part be explained by increased GLP-1 levels after surgery. It appears that the effect depends on nutrient delivery directly to the lower parts of the small intestine. It is possible that the RYGB effects are partly due to enteroendocrine stimulation of FFA1 and perhaps FFA4 by direct nutrient delivery, i.e. FFA release in the lower intestines. Pinolenic acid from pine nuts has been shown to be a potent dual FFA1/FFA4 agonist. Based on these findings the investigators have planned a number of human intervention studies in order to investigate 1) the optimal oral formulation of pine nut oil 2) whether it is possible to mimic the beneficial effects observed after RYGB, 2) if it is possible to increase GLP-1 secretion by stimulating FFA1/FFA4 on enteroendocrine cells causing improved GSIS and increased satiety and 3) enhancement of GSIS by directly stimulating FFA1 on beta-cells.
Type 2 diabetes is the largest growing concern across the globe, and this is particularly apparent in developing countries, including Nepal. Despite the growing burden and chronic nature of diabetes, prevention and control of this disease is far from adequate setting in Nepal. Moreover, there is lack of evidence on effectiveness and affordability of a population approach on reducing blood glucose level among diabetes persons. The main aim of this study is to determine the effect of Female Community Health Volunteers' (FCHVs)-led family-based health education and screening on blood sugar level in adults at community level in Nepal. This is a community-based cluster randomized controlled trial involving family based health education through FCHVs in Nepal. People ≥25 years of age listed in the Community-Based Management of Hypertension (COBIN) study and who were diabetics are eligible for eligible for participation in the study. FCHVs will conduct family based health education and fasting blood glucose measurements in the treatment arm vs not any interventions in the control arm. Independent assessors will conduct the baseline and end line assessment of the intervention. Intention to treat analysis and per protocol analysis will be used in analysis to detect significant differences between treatment and control group participants at baseline and follow up. For individual outcomes, proportions will be compared using Chi-square test and continuous measures will be compared using t-tests. Random effect mixed regression analysis will be adjusted for age and sex. Since randomisation will be at the cluster level in the study, a random-effect model will be used to account for clustering effect. Effectiveness of the intervention will be tested by analysis of covariance, which will allow us to adjust for baseline differences between groups. It is anticipated that the study can give valuable information regarding effectiveness, acceptability, and feasibility of an innovative way to improve diabetes management. Assessing the FCHVs' ability to address diabetes may contribute to develop a policy that can be scaled-up to a national level.
This study will investigate the feasibility of an intervention to increase physical activity in pregnant women with diabetes by incorporating a brief in-person counseling session and Fitbit activity trackers into routine clinical care
The purpose of this study is to examine the drug-drug interaction when given the study drug, bexagliflozin, with three commonly prescribed medications, probenecid, verapamil or rifampin. The study is to evaluate how safe the study drug is and how well the study drug is tolerated when taken with probenecid, verapamil or rifampin.
Primary Objective: To demonstrate the superiority of sotagliflozin 400 milligrams (mg) versus placebo with respect to hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) reduction in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) who have inadequate glycemic control on basal insulin alone or with oral antidiabetes drugs (OADs). Secondary Objectives: - To assess the effects of sotagliflozin 400 mg versus placebo on fasting plasma glucose (FPG), body weight, systolic blood pressure (SBP), and HbA1c. - To assess the effects of sotagliflozin 200 mg versus placebo on HbA1c, body weight, FPG, and SBP. - To evaluate the safety of sotagliflozin 400 and 200 mg versus placebo.
Incretin therapy is a treatment for type 2 diabetes (T2DM) affected by heart failure (HF). In this study the investigators will recruit T2DM patients affected by HF with depressed ejection fraction and treated by Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). These patients will randomly be treated by incretin v/s conventional hypoglicemic drugs. In this patients investigators will report at follow up CRT-d responders rate, mortality, and hospital admission for HF worsening. Incretin may reduce hospital admissions for HF in T2DM v/s conventional hypoglicemic drugs.
The purpose of the present study is to assess the safety and efficacy of up to 2 injections of REACT given 6 months (+4 weeks) apart (maximum).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the accuracy and efficacy of the Cambridge Medical Technologies, LLC LabPatch Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System compared to a laboratory glucose analyzer (YSI 2300 STAT Plus) and 2 commercial glucometers, OneTouch Verio and Freestyle Lite. The LabPatch system includes: 1. The LabPatch circuit chip which lies in the center of a circular push-button. The circuit is in the form of a small chip (approximately 15.7 mm [0.618"] x 15.7 mm [0.618"]) placed in contact with the skin. The chip has a telescopic micropipette which draws interstitial fluid to be analyzed for glucose levels. The chip is also able to measure skin temperature to ensure appropriate skin contact. 2. A Lab Patch holding device (blue box). 3. A wire that connects the chip to a laptop that continuously captures glucose data.
