Active clinical trials for "Insulin Resistance"

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a 6-months program of Adapted Physical Activity (APA) on lifestyle, physical activity levels, insulin resistance and adipokines, oxidative stress, microcirculatory haemodynamics and serum levels of specific circulating miRNA in post-menopausal, physically inactive breast cancer patients in oncologic follow-up with or without hormone therapy that had completed adjuvant treatment (radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy) . Furthermore, the study will determine the impact of APA on functional capabilities, on self-reported physical activity, quality of life and psychic health.

this study will be carried to investigate the effect of cryolipolysis and high intensity interval training on insulin resistance and body composition in pco women

This study will test the effect of four common oral anti-diabetic agents on hepatic insulin sensitivity in South Asian women with impaired glucose tolerance or impaired fasting glucose. In a 12-week, double-blind, randomized controlled intervention trial, the following drugs will be tested head-to-head: Metformin, Pioglitazone, Empagliflozin and Linagliptin. Additional, exploratory outcomes include whole body insulin sensitivity, insulin secretion and other markers of glucose and lipid metabolism, measured by the euglycemic clamp with stable isotope tracer dilution, indirect calorimetry and CT-measurements of abdominal adipose tissue compartment volumes and hepatic and pancreatic volume and attenuation. The study is part of the DIASA - DIAbetes in South Asians - Research Programme, which aims to find ways to improve both prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes in people of South Asian ethnicity.

The present trial is a pilot study to investigate the effect of auricular acupressure on insulin resistance in women with PCOS.A total of 100 subjects will be enrolled into this study and will be randomized into two groups. Auricular acupressure or sham auricular acupressure will be treated for three months. The primary outcome is the whole body insulin action assessed with HOMA-IR.

Prospective, randomized, double-blind, controlled-trial 30 subjects in each groups Group - I consume pure D-allulose 5 g 3 times a day before meal to right after meal (with any liquid) and Group - II control group with non-calorie sweetener erythritol 5 g 3 times a day before meal to right after meal (with any liquid) Total number: n = 60 Either males or females, non-diabetic, aged > 18 years old with BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 Primary objectives Efficacy 1. Compare the efficacy of pure D-allulose (psicose) plus conventional therapy on 1.1 visceral fat area (VFA), subcutaneous fat area (SFA), total fat area (TFA) change 1.2 body weight, BMI and body fat percentage (with impedance method) change after 24 weeks of D-allulose (psicose) consumption to erythritol consumption and between pre- and post-intervention. Secondary objectives 1. Efficacy of pure D-allulose (psicose) plus conventional therapy versus erythritol plus conventional therapy on 1.1 insulin resistance, fasting plasma glucose, HbA1c 1.2 adiponectin, leptin and tumor necrosis factor-alpha, lipid profiles (total cholesterol, HDL-C, LDL-C, triglyceride, very low-density lipoprotein, LDL, chylomicron), apolipoprotein AI, apolipoprotein AII,apolipoprotein B48, apolipoprotein CIII and apolipoprotein E, free fatty acids 1.4 waist circumference, hip circumference, waist/hip ratio Safety 1. Safety of the study by comparing with conventional therapy, monitoring blood pressure, pulse rate, hematological parameters and urinalysis

The proposed work will investigate the effects of avocados on abdominal obesity and glycemic control among overweight/obese adults.

The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of intermittent fasting on insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle and fat distribution.

The effect of Chromium to improve glucose levels in Alzheimer Disease (AD) is controversial. The hypothesis of the study is to evaluate the effect of supplementing the AD individuals with Chromium combined with exercise and assessing the effect of the supplementation on glucose metabolism.

The purpose of this study is to help researchers learn about how the brain responds to rewards. This study is interested in seeing how these responses differ between people who are more and less responsive to insulin in their body, and people with and without depression.

The main purpose of this study is to study the phenomenon of insulin resistance in patients after carotid revascularization surgery through population-based, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.
