Filter by:Hispanic adults are twice as likely to have type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and 1.5 times more likely to die from the disease than non-Hispanic whites. These disparities are mediated, in part, by less healthful levels of physical activity, dietary quality, medication adherence, and self-monitoring of blood glucose than non-Hispanic whites. Innovative approaches that arise from affected communities are needed to address these health disparities. Community-based participatory research (CBPR) has been successful in targeting health issues among Hispanic and immigrant populations; CBPR is an effective approach for addressing health behaviors in a sociocultural context. In 2004, the research team developed a CBPR partnership between immigrant communities and academic institutions called Rochester Healthy Community Partnership (RHCP) Storytelling or narrative-based interventions are designed to incorporate culture-centric health messaging to promote behavior change among vulnerable populations. Digital storytelling interventions are narrative-based videos elicited through a CBPR approach to surface the authentic voices of individuals overcoming obstacles toward engaging in health promoting behaviors to shape positive health behaviors of viewers through influences on attitudes and beliefs. RHCP partners from Hispanic communities identified T2D as a priority area for intervention, and have co-created each of the formative phases leading up to this proposal. Narrative theory and social cognitive theory formed the conceptual basis for intervention development. The study team conducted surveys and focus groups to derive the approach and personnel for building an authentic intervention that was created in a digital storytelling workshop where stories about diabetes self-management were captured, recorded, and edited to derive the final intervention products in video forma. The respective digital storytelling videos were pilot tested with 25 patients across healthcare institutions in Minnesota and Arizona. The intervention was rated as highly acceptable, culturally relevant, and perceived as efficacious for motivating behavioral change. The overall objective of this project is therefore to assess the efficacy of a digital storytelling intervention derived through a CBPR approach on self-management of T2D among Hispanic adults during a pandemic.
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effects of an insulin self-titration education program on glycemic control, self-efficacy, and self-care behaviors in patients with type 2 diabetes. The quasi-experimental design was adapted. A convenient sample of 120 patients with insulin-treated type 2 diabetes was recruited from a general hospital in Taiwan. Among them, 60 were in the insulin self-titration group, and 60 were in the comparison group. Data on glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C), self-efficacy, and self-care behavior were collected at baseline, three-month, and six-month follow-up. The study instruments included the Insulin Diabetes Management Self-Efficacy Questionnaire and Diabetes Self-Care questionnaire.
Aim: The purpose was to investigate whether modifiable risk factors for type 2 diabetes can be reduced by an intensive healthy lifestyle intervention designed for Arab Muslim women. Methods: Women were assigned randomly to either an Exercise and Nutrition Group (ENG) or a Control Group (CG). The ENG attended a women-only supervised exercise program that presented Arabic music and traditional Lebanese Dabka steps three times/week in the Mosque Gym for 12 weeks. A nutritionist was available one hour/week for nutrition education. The CG followed their typical day.
A total of 74 Adult Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) will be enrolled and randomized into 2 groups. The intervention group will receive oral magnesium (Mg) supplementation. The study objectives are: 1. To estimate level of Mg (total and ionized) in patient with type 2 DM. 2. To determine the effect of Mg supplementation for diabetic patient on serum Mg level, glycemic control and level of inflammation. 3. To assess the correlation between serum Mg level and glycemic control and level of inflammatory mediators (CRP)
Dried dates (Phoenix dactylifera) have the second highest phytoestrogen content of any fruit, only secondary to dried apricots with 329ug of phytoestrogens per 100g. The date palm is one of oldest planted trees on the earth at around 2,000 years old. Dates are nutritionally rich and a good source of fiber and carbohydrates and their potential medicinal and nutritional effects have been suggested in a number of studies. Date sugars have also been shown to be phenol rich, potent antioxidant, and strong inhibitor of α -glycosidase that may also have benefit in diabetes. In addition, dates are rich in micronutrients that may also have benefit for diabetes and insulin resistance . Dates have a glycemic index of 50 and studies have shown that the consumption of differing varieties of dates do not significantly affect the acute glycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of date phytoestrogens on HbA1C and fasting blood glucose in patients with type 2 diabetes in comparison to the same glycemic load of raisins that have low phytoestrogen content.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of instant multigrain supplementation on the glycemic status, cardiometabolic implications, oxidative stress and nutritional status in Type II DM patients.
Prospective study including Mexican patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and class 1 obesity, undergoing laparoscopic gastric bypass. The objective was to determine short, mid-and long-term outcomes (weight loss, metabolic, morbidity and diabetes remission). A subanalysis was included, based on preoperative usage of one (Group A) or more antidiabetics ± insulin (Group B).
To explore the severity of diabetic patients with coronary heart disease and the change of serum orphanin FQ content in different diabetic courses
The current paradigm of Type 2 Diabetes treatment relies heavily on expensive pharmacotherapy even though lifestyle factors are at the root of the condition. This study is designed to assess the feasibility of a low carbohydrate diet coupled with a time restricted feeding intervention to improve participant sensitivity, reducing their need for insulin. 20 participants will be invited to enroll from the 20 S Park St Clinic in Madison, WI and remain on study for up to 6 months.
The purpose of this study is to determine which of Psyllium and Wheat Dextrin is more effective in lowering fasting blood sugar and hemoglobin A1c, and to evaluate the effects they have on laboratory values.
