Filter by:The focus of this study is to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and impact of a customized, combined positive psychology and motivational interviewing (PP-MI) health behavior intervention versus a motivational interviewing (MI) health education intervention in a group of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).
Background: The association of trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), a microbiota dependent metabolite from dietary choline and carnitine, with type 2 diabetes was inconsistent. Objective: The investigators planned to investigate the association between plasma TMAO and newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes as well as whether the association could be modified by the TMAO-generating enzyme flavin monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) polymorphisms. Design: This is an age- and sex-matched case-control study of 2694 participants: 1346 newly diagnosed cases of type 2 diabetes and 1348 controls. The patients of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes were consecutively recruited from those attending for the first time the outpatient clinics of Department of Endocrinology, Tongji Medical College Hospital, Wuhan, China, from 2012 January to December 2014. Concomitantly, the investigators recruited healthy individuals who were frequency-matched by age (±5 years) and sex to patients from an unselected population undergoing a routine health check-up in the same hospital. The inclusion criteria for controls and newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes were: age ≥ 30 years, body mass index (BMI) < 40 kg/m2, no history of a diagnosis of diabetes and no history of receiving pharmacological treatment for hyperlipidaemia or hypertension. Patients with clinically significant neurological, endocrinological or other systemic diseases, as well as acute illness or chronic inflammatory or infective diseases, were excluded from the study. All the participants enrolled were of Chinese Han ethnicity. All the participants gave informed written consent to the study and did not take any medication known to affect glucose tolerance or insulin secretion before participation. The study was approved by the ethics committee of the Tongji Medical College. Concentrations of plasma TMAO were measured, and FMO3 E158K polymorphism (rs2266782) were genotyped.
Faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) represents a clinically feasible way to restore the gut microbial ecology, and has proven to be a breakthrough for the treatment of recurrent Clostridium difficile infection. Early results in human have shown that FMT from lean donor when transplanted into subjects with metabolic syndrome resulted in a significant improvement in insulin sensitivity and an increased in intestinal microbial diversity, including a distinct increase in butyrate-producing bacterial strains. The therapy is generally well tolerated and appeared safe. No clinical studies have assessed the efficacy of FMT in obese subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The Microbiome Insulin Sensitivity Study "MISS" is a pilot study designed to study microbiome composition across puberty and how it relates to insulin sensitivity and secretion in obese girls, who are at increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes in puberty. The investigators will evaluate the gut microbiome composition in fecal samples of 57 obese girls in three groups: prepubertal (Tanner 1), early pubertal (Tanner 2-3), and late pubertal (Tanner 4-5). Insulin sensitivity will also be measured via an intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) in 18 prepubertal and late pubertal participants.
This study investigates cold-induced brown fat activation in winter swimmers and not-winter swimmers by skin temperature measures assessed with infra red thermography imaging and skin temperatures. Winter swimmers and not-winter swimmers will participate in an acute cooling intervention and thermoneutral intervention for comparison of energy expenditure and skin temperatures at the supraclavicular area.
Examination of the molecular phenotype and composition of endocrine cells in the gastrointestinal tract correlated to analyses of blood for hormones/analytes before and after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery in morbidly obese individuals both with and without type 2 diabetes
The overall objective of this study is to construct an adaptive intervention that integrates family members and patients as partners in care while promoting diabetes self-management for Mexican Americans with Type 2 diabetes. The project incorporates four evidence-based, culturally tailored treatments using a Sequential, Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial to help determine what sequence of intervention strategies work most efficiently and for whom.
The purpose of this study is to investigate a persons dietary intake and its effect on the gut microbiome and the association of those two variables on weight and glucoregulation. Specifically, the investigators will compare the gut microbiota, fasting glucose and insulin, c-peptide and hemoglobin A1-c in three groups of subjects: obese patients (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2) with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), obese patients without T2DM, and normal weight lean controls without T2DM. Each patient will also complete a detailed dietary recall (ASA-24) to investigate the association with diet, microbiome and weight/glucoregulation.
Further studies are needed to establish the optimal diet for treating T2D. The investigators wishes to investigate whether a low carbohydrate diet, high in monounsaturated fats (LCD) will affect cardiovascular function, metabolism and the liver. 135 participants with T2D, will be following either a LCD, or a regular diabetes diet (RDD) for 6 months. Measurements and investigations will be performed at baseline and after 6 months.
This was a 24-week single-center, open-label, parallel controlled group comparing gliclazide, liraglutide, and metformin effects on diabetes with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
