Sustainable-psycho-nutritional Intervention Program and Its Effects on Health Outcomes and the Environment...

Gut MicrobiotaHyperglycemia10 more

Mexico is going through a major environmental and nutritional crisis, which is related to unsustainable dietary behaviors. Sustainable diets could solve both problems together. However, in Mexico and the world, an intervention program oriented to promoting sustainable diets has not been designed. This study protocol aims to design a 3-stages, 15 weeks, sustainable-psycho-nutritional digital intervention program whose objective is to promote the adherence of the Mexican population to a sustainable diet and to evaluate its effects on dietary water and carbon footprints, metabolic biomarkers, and gut microbiota of this population. The behavior change wheel model and the guide for digital interventions design will be followed. In stage 1, the program will be designed using the sustainable diets model, and the behavior change wheel model. A sustainable food guide, sustainable recipes, and food plans as well as a mobile application will be developed. In stage 2, the intervention will be carried out for 7 weeks, and a follow-up period of 7 weeks, in a sample of Mexican young adults (18 to 35 years) randomly divided into an experimental group (n=50) and a control group (n=50). The nutritional care process model will be used. Anthropometric, biochemical, clinical, dietary, environmental, socioeconomic level and cultural aspects, nutritional-sustainable knowledge, behavioral aspects, and physical activity will be considered. Thirteen behavioral objectives will be included using successive approaches in online workshops twice a week. The population will be monitored using the mobile application that will include behavioral change techniques. In stage 3, the effects of the intervention will be assessed on the dietary water and carbon footprint, lipid profile, serum glucose, and gut microbiota composition of the evaluated population. It is expected to find improvements in health outcomes and a decrease in dietary water and carbon footprints. With this study, the first theoretical-methodological approach to the sustainable-psycho-nutrition approach will be generated.

Monitoring and Managing Glucose Levels in People With Pancreatic Cancer

Pancreatic CancerPDAC - Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma1 more

This study will investigate whether or not it is feasible to closely monitor and manage glucose levels in people with pancreatic cancer. It will also investigate what impact glucose management may have on pancreatic cancer. This is a pilot study that will use continuous glucose monitors (CGM) to monitor glucose levels in approximately 50 participants with pancreatic cancer. Participants will receive standard chemotherapy with a combination of up to four drugs to treat their pancreatic cancer: oxaliplatin, irinotecan, 5-fluorouracil, and leucovorin (FOLFIRINOX). To treat high glucose levels, participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: Group 1 will receive anti-hyperglycemic treatment as guided by an endocrinologist with the aim of maintaining glucose levels between 4 and 10 mmol/L; Group 2 will receive anti-hyperglycemic treatment if their glucose levels are above 15 mmol/L, which is standard care. Participants in both Groups 1 and 2 will receive standard anti-hyperglycemic treatments: metformin, insulin, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, sodium glucose co-transporter (SGLT2) inhibitors, and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors. After 4 cycles of FOLFIRINOX, the CGM will be removed but any anti-hyperglycemic treatments will continue as needed. If participants discontinue treatment with FOLFIRINOX, they will continue to be followed for survival and subsequent anti-cancer therapy and will continue follow-up for glucose-related concerns at the discretion of their endocrinologist and/or medical oncologist.

Semaglutide Treatment for Hyperglycaemia After Renal Transplantation

HyperglycemiaRenal Transplant Complication Primary Non-Function1 more

Background: Post-transplant hyperglycaemia occurs frequently in renal transplant recipients within the first two weeks after transplantation. Standard-of-care is primarily based on insulin treatment with the adherent risk of hypoglycaemia and weight gain. Semaglutide produces an effective lowering of plasma glucose in diabetes patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and leads to a reduction in weight and the incidence of hypoglycaemia. The efficacy of semaglutide is untested in renal transplant recipients, and safety concerns remain, primarily on renal graft function. Objectives: The primary objective is to establish whether tablet semaglutide (Rybelsus) compared with placebo, both as add-on to standard-of-care, is non-inferior in regulating plasma glucose in patients with hyperglycaemia after renal transplantation. Secondary objectives aim to evaluate the effect of tablet semaglutide on renal graft function, weight, use of insulin, cardiovascular parameters and safety parameters (plasma semaglutide concentration, gastrointestinal side effects, dose of immunosuppressants). Design: An investigator-initiated, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, parallel-group, randomised trial. Population: Patients (n = 104) with post-transplant hyperglycaemia and an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) > 15 ml/min/1.73 m2. Methods: Participants diagnosed with post-transplant hyperglycaemia, 10 to 15 days post-transplant, will be randomised 1:1 to either 14 weeks of tablet semaglutide once daily or placebo both as add-on to standard glucose-lowering therapy. Participants will maintain weekly contact with the clinic during the first five weeks and at two to four weeks intervals during the remaining study period. During the trial, each patient will be monitored according to blood laboratory values with safety assessed at every visit by a nephrologist. Pre-prandial plasma glucose will be measured in the morning and evening to adjust glucose-lowering therapy after consultation with an endocrinologist. Double blinded continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) will be performed for 10-14 days from baseline and at weeks 5, 9, and 13. Primary endpoint: - Mean sensor glucose (mmol/L) evaluated by CGM Key secondary endpoints: Incidence of hypoglycaemia Body weight (kg) Creatinine (μmol/L) Daily insulin dose (IE per day) Plasma concentration of semaglutide (nmol/L) Blood concentrations of cyclosporine and tacrolimus (μg/L)

To Identify Anytime Hyperglycaemia in Subjects With Normoglycaemia and Prediabetes

Healthy

To test these hypotheses, The Investigators will recruit 100 overweight and obese adolescents with HbA1c ranging across the ADA classification spectrum from normal to prediabetes,(nearly 40:normoglycemi, 30: IFG, 30:1GT) measure free-living glucose by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), and assess the relationships among CGM outcomes, HbA1c, and OGTT results (FPG and 2-h glucose). Individual with overt diabetes will be excluded. This will be a 2 visit study. Subjects will be coming to Fortis CDOC after a minimum 8-hour overnight fast. Informed written consent and validated questionnaire in a language known to them (English/Hindi) will be obtained from all participants. Clinical details will be obtained from the case records of the patients. Note of visible markers of insulin resistance (acanthosis nigricans, buffalo hump, double chin, subcutaneous fat pads, skin) Anthropometry, skinfolds & blood pressure will be recorded. Overweight and, obesity will be defined according to predefined guidelines for Asian Indian. Abdominal obesity is defined as waist circumference of ≥ 90 centimetres (cms) in males and ≥ 80 cms in females. A blinded iPro Continuous Glucose Monitor (Medtronic MiniMed, Inc) will be inserted. After a calibration period of 1 hour, fasting laboratory result will be collected: FPG, HbA1c. HbA1c will be done by HPLC (NGSP approved, turbid inhibition immunoassay). Then subjects will consume 1.75 g/kg glucose, maximum 75 g (glucose beverage) and will have a second venepuncture 2 hours later for plasma glucose measurement. While awaiting the 2-hour venepuncture, participants will be provided instructions on CGM device care and calibration. Participants will be instructed to wear the CGM device for a minimum of 72 hours and to not change any of their current dietary or activity habits for the period of CGM wear. They will be trained to use a glucose monitor and collect capillary blood glucose values at least three times daily, prior to meals. Participants will also be asked to complete a simple log of their activity, as well as record dietary intake, and sleep and wake times. The iPro and log-sheet will be returned in person after a minimum of 72 hours of recording time. Investigators and patients will be kept blinded to CGM recordings throughout the study. Daily glycaemic variability will be assessed by the change in the mean amplitude of glucose excursions (MAGE) index, and through the standard deviation (SD) of the mean 24-hour blood glucose concentration. Day-to-day variability will be assessed through the mean of daily differences (MoDD in mg/dL). Daily glycaemic control will be assessed by the mean (M) daily CGM value, as well as by the times (in minutes/day) spent in optimal glycaemic range (70-140 mg/dL) and above predefined hyperglycaemic thresholds (140 ,180 and 200 mg/dL) together with the corresponding area under the curve (AUC) values. In addition, areas under 24-hour glycaemic traces (AUCs) will be analysed to estimate: overall hyperglycaemia (defined asAUC≥100 mg/dL over the full 24-hour period = AUCtotal);postprandial hyperglycaemia (AUC[0-4 h], i.e. for four-hour periods after each of the main meals and, if considered relevant by the core laboratory, after additional snacks = AUCpp); and basal hyperglycaemia, i.e. overall hyperglycaemia - postprandial hyperglycaemia (AUCb)

Feasibility of Using the "CGM GUARDIAN 2" Interstitial Fluid Glucose Measurement System in Intensive...

HyperglycemiaHypotension2 more

Glycemic imbalances are very common in shock patients admitted to intensive care units. A blood glucose control every 2 hours is routinely performed in patients requiring insulin therapy. In practice, we use a protocol and management software called "CPG" (Personalized Control of Blood Glucose). This involves taking capillary samples from the fingertips. In addition to the pain generated, local haematomas and sensitivity disorders have been described. Night-time sampling also leads to repeated awakenings. The "CGM GUARDIAN 2" system has been validated for the measurement of glucose in interstitial fluid in insulin-dependent diabetic patients. An electrode is placed on the patient's abdomen or arm for up to 6 days. This electrode consists of a needle that is inserted subcutaneously only during the placement. The sugar level is read using a sensor placed on the electrode and an insulin pump (which will not deliver therapy (for our study) and which will be used only as an information reader to know the glucose level and trends). Interstitial fluid is automatically drawn from the electrode every minute and averaged every 5 minutes. This device has not yet been validated in resuscitation patients.
