Filter by:The aim of the present clinical trial is to assess how raspberry leaf polyphenols impact on postprandial glucose and insulin levels in healthy individuals consuming sucrose. The questions the project will address: - Do raspberry leaf polyphenols lower sucrose-induced increases in plasma glucose in humans? - Do these polyphenols mediate these effects by inhibiting digestion of sucrose or the absorption of glucose. 20 healthy adults will be recruited between the ages of 18-65 years who are non-smokers and not taking certain types of medication (e.g., drugs from a GP for high blood pressure, high blood fats, inflammatory conditions, and depression) or dietary supplements (e.g., cholesterol-lowering spreads, fish oil, probiotics, prebiotics, and natural laxatives), antibiotics in the last three months or if they used any drugs or supplements that could affect their blood glucose or lipid metabolism. No abnormal results for liver function tests, renal function tests, and lipid profile tests. If they have food allergies or consume more than 14 units of alcohol per week (i.e., to help they calculate a alcohol intake, one standard glass of wine (175 ml) or one pint of regular lager is equivalent to just over two units of alcohol), frequently travel for work or are participating in another intervention study, they will not be able to participate. Women who are pregnant or lactating or planning a pregnancy in the next six months will also not be able to take part, not use herbal medicines for at least the previous three months, not be on a weight loss program six months before screening, not involved in clinical trials six months before the screening, and not having severe cardiac, hepatic, or renal function impairment. Not Sufferers of chronic illnesses, not Individuals with food allergies, not people with coeliac disease. They will be asked to attend a four-study visit after an eight-hour overnight fast. Volunteers will be asked to consume 50 g of carbohydrate powder (sucrose and glucose) with or without 10 g of raspberry leaf tea, which will be dissolved in 300 mL of warm water during four visits (every month). Blood samples will be taken at intervals for a period of two hours after the consumption of raspberry leaf or control. Blood glucose and insulin levels will be tested 15 minutes before, at 15,30,60,90, and 120 minutes after carbohydrate intake.
Sixty elderly diabetics (type II) their age ranged from 60-75 years had been divided into two equal groups; group (A) treated by 40-minute passive stretching exercises, while the group (B) treated by 30 minutes electrical stimulation three times per week for 12 weeks. Blood glucose level,Time up and go test (TUG) and Fatigue severity scale were done before and after 12 weeks of the study.Conclusion: Both electrical stimulation and passive stretching are effective to lowering blood glucose level and can be proposed for those people restricted to perform exercise.
A multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group phase IV Study evaluating the effects of tirzepatide on atherosclerotic plaque progression assessed by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in participants with a diagnosis of type II Diabetes (T2DM) and atherosclerosis.
This is a phase I, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, single- and multiple-ascending dose study to evaluate new study intervention, PS1. PS1 is a potential blood glucose control medication, which is developed by Pharmasaga Co. Ltd. planned for treating type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This is a first-in-human study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), food effect and potential efficacy of PS1 in subjects.
The DUNDRUM Forensic Redevelopment Evaluation study (D-FOREST study) is a multi-site comprehensive evaluation of a complete National Forensic Mental Health Service. The study will have a prospective, observational, longitudinal design which will permit the evaluation of benefit over time for individual patients, groups of patients and the evaluation of the benefit in terms of service based outcomes of the redevelopment of a complete National Forensic Mental Health Service e.g. effects on waiting list times, length of stay. The study will systematically evaluate multiple domains of recovery in a complete National Forensic Service, including patients' physical health, mental health, offending behaviours and social and occupational functioning.
Randomized, Open-label, Single-dose, Two-way Crossover Clinical Trial to Investigate the Pharmacokinetics and Safety/Tolerability after Oral Administration of CKD-387 10/1000 mg and D484 10/1000mg in Healthy Adults
There is currently a critical gap in knowledge of how intestinal bacterial communities alter metabolic substrates available to the host thereby influencing central and enteric nervous system (CNS/ENS) neurotransmitter levels involved in regulating carbohydrate consumption in humans. Understanding these relationships is essential for developing strategies to improve blood glucose control and to reduce the risk of transitioning from prediabetes to type-2 diabetes (T2D). The investigators' long-term goal is to determine the biological underpinnings of behaviors that impact food intake and blood glucose control that contribute to the development of T2D. The objective of this proposal, which is an essential next step in attaining the investigators' long-term goals, is to determine how bacterial populations in the digestive system impact circulating tryptophan (TRP) and large neutral amino acid (LNAA) levels that regulate production of monoamine 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin) in the ENS and in gastrointestinal system and the brain. The central hypothesis is that a reduced ratio of TRP producing (TRPp) to TRP consuming (TRPc) bacteria (decreased TRPp:TRPc ratio) in the gut will decrease TRP availability following a carbohydrate meal lowering the plasma TRP:LNAA ratio and resulting in less TRP for ENS/CNS production of 5HT. Further, dietary interventions that promote TRPp bacterial abundance within the gut will increase TRP availability to the host. The investigators will test the central hypothesis and, thereby, accomplish the overall objective for this project by pursuing the following specific aims: 1) Assess impact of divergent microbiota on plasma TRP:LNAA ratio in response to acute carbohydrate consumption, and 2) Assess the impact of dietary supplementation with resistant starch (RS) on gut microbiota and circulating TRP:LNAA ratio. During Aim 1, stool samples will be collected from healthy participants. Participants will be stratified based on gut TRPp:TRPc ratio and the response to an acute meal will be assessed by determining plasma TRP:LNAA ratios. During Aim 2 the capacity for 4-weeks of pre-biotic RS (Potato Starch) supplementation to increase the TRPp:TRPc bacterial ratio in the gut will be determined from stool samples. Additionally, plasma TRP:LNAA ratio following acute carbohydrate consumption before and after supplementation will be determined. The scientific contribution will be to determine the impact of RS on TRPp and TRPc bacteria abundance in the gut, and how bacterial populations impact circulating TRP:LNAA levels, that can impact ENS and CNS 5HT production in humans. This contribution will be significant because it will have direct translational implications for human diseases with altered 5HT signaling.
This project focuses on the physiopathology of left ventricular remodeling associated with type II diabetes in patients with aortic valve stenosis referred for surgical aortic valve replacement. The main objective is to compare the reverse left ventricular remodeling between patients with type II diabetes and case-control patients without diabetes at one(1) year after surgical aortic valve replacement. The secondary objectives are : 1. assess the influence of type II diabetes on left ventricular remodeling in patients presenting with aortic valve stenosis, 2. assess the predictive value of myocardial fibrosis and other LV characteristics present prior to aortic valve surgery on the LV reverse remodeling and their influence on cardiovascular events at one (1) year after surgery, 3. assess the influence of type II diabetes on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality post aortic valve surgery. The investigators main hypothesis is that patients with type II diabetes and aortic valve stenosis requiring aortic valve replacement have poorer LV function and less favorable post surgery clinical outcomes than patients without type II diabetes.
The hypothesis is that richly coloured purple vegetables, rich in polyphenolic compounds including anthocyanins will have higher antioxidant and other biological activities, than more lightly coloured versions of these foods. Diets of human subjects will be modified to allow consumption of 200-300 g of raw carrots or cooked potatoes. Participants will be randomized to consume either orange or purple carrots, or white or purple potatoes. They will consume these diets for 12 weeks and bioavailability of polyphenolics will be examined as well as anthropometry and blood biochemistry for changes in risk factors associated with cardiovascular disease.
