Active clinical trials for "Insulin Resistance"

The purpose of the trial is to assess the effects of combining regular, generous intakes of high quality protein (with substantial amounts provided from whole eggs and egg whites) with calorie restriction on insulin resistance and weight loss (along with function, body composition, racial disparities, and a number of secondary outcomes) in black and white older adults with prediabetes who are participating in a 4-month intervention. The investigators will compare these effects to the same outcomes with a control group consuming a traditional control regimen of calorie restriction over the same duration.

The purpose of the BEAM study is to compare the effects of a low-carbohydrate diet and a lowfat diet for adults with mild memory loss and adults with pre-diabetes. The data collected will help determine changes in cognitive function, brain structure and function, and levels of certain proteins and hormones in body fluids.

This study will characterize insulin sensitivity in response to treatment with ALKS 3831, olanzapine, and placebo.

Amla has demonstrated promising effects in the treatment of obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension, insulin secretion, among others. The above mentioned findings show that Amla has an excellent potential for the prevention and treatment of metabolic syndrome.

To study whether a diet high in fiber from Konjac-mannan (KJM) has an effect on metabolic control in individuals with insulin resistance syndrome.

It is known that postprandial hyperglycemia increases the cardiometabolic risk in both diabetic and non-diabetic patients. Moreover, there is insufficient data on the effectiveness of exercise on preventing Type II diabetes mellitus in individuals with insulin resistance and prediabetes. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of resistance exercise in limiting postprandial hyperglycemia and the necessity of prescribing medication particularly in patients with beta-thalassemia and insulin resistance.

The Metabolic Syndrome is a high prevalence disease worldwide. About a quarter of the adult population suffers the disease. Banaba has shown evidence that has on metabolic syndrome, insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion. The investigators hypothesis was that the the administration of resveratrol modifies the metabolic syndrome, insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion.

This is a single blind randomised controlled clinical trial in uncontrolled type 2 Diabetes mellitus patients on oral glucose lowering agents, and naive to incretinomimetic. Participants will be randomised in two Arms : arm 1 receiving Liraglutide at 1,2 mg/day and arm 2 Vildagliptine at 100mg/day over 14 days. The two arms will be compared for 14-day changes in insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity.

The purpose of this prospective randomized controlled study is to evaluate the impact of a six-month digitally administered behavioral change program on body weight, glycemic control and other metabolic parameters in obese adults with insulin resistance, prediabetes or type 2 diabetes as compared to conventional high-intensity lifestyle intervention program administered at a specialized department of a university hospital.

Chronic hepatitis C infection has been linked to insulin resistance, which is the essential component of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Resistin; an adipokine, has been demonstrated to stimulate the secretion of several inflammatory factors known to play a role in the induction of insulin resistance. we investigated the changes in insulin resistance after hepatitis C clearance in the era of direct antivirals.
