Study of Stress Hyperglycemia as an Indicator of Diabetes Mellitus

Stress HyperglycemiaDiabetes Mellitus Type 2

We hypothesize that stress hyperglycemia is an indicator that a patient will develop type 2 diabetes mellitus in the future. Subjects who are not diabetic are enrolled and blood glucose readings reviewed during their intensive care unit stay. All subjects are consented and have a HbA1C level drawn to determine if they have diabetes mellitus or not. They are then followed up in 1 year and the HbA1C repeated to determine if they have developed diabetes mellitus over the course.

Characteristics of Dendritic Cells Before and After Gastric Banding

Morbid ObesityHyperglycemia1 more

A research study to find out more about a specific white blood cell called a dendritic cell. These cells are found in a layer of fat in the body called the omentum. The omentum is a layer of fat that covers the bowels (intestines) and protects them. The purpose of this study is to allow us to compare dendritic cells in normal weight individuals to the dendritic cells of people who are extremely overweight. These cells will be collected from the omentum, the layer of fat that covers and protects the bowels (intestines), from the mesentery, which is another layer of fat that surrounds the intestines directly, and from the subcutaneous tissue, which is the layer of fat just under the skin.

The Effect of Bread Fortification With Phosphorus and Lysine on Postprandial Glycaemia and Thermogenesis...

Postprandial HyperglycemiaEnergy Expenditure

Wheat and wheat derived products are highly consumed around the world. They constitute the major dietary source of protein and energy for many individuals. Wheat contains moderate quantity of low quality protein lacking in some essential amino acids, primarily lysine, thus wheat based diets can't sustain optimal growth, and accordingly should be supplemented with lysine or complemented by another protein source of better quality to match human needs. However, human studies showed that wheat flour fortification with lysine was able to slightly improve growth, namely by increasing weight gain, but it did not however completely reverse growth impairment provoked by the consumption of wheat-based diets. The investigators developed interest in the role of phosphorus in health and diseased and believe that the modest impact of lysine fortification may due to low phosphorus availability of wheat products. Phosphorus content of cereals is mainly in the form of phytate that is not bioavailable. Supplementing a wheat gluten based diet with a combination of lysine and phosphorus was able to highly amplify the increase in weight gain and energy efficiency of rats as compared to lysine or phosphorus supplementation alone. Phosphorus is an essential mineral known to be directly involved in the production of ATP, which is essential for many metabolic processes including protein synthesis. The investigators believe that a better approach to enhance the quality of a wheat-based diet is through the supplementation with a combination of both lysine and phosphorus. The present study is designed to investigate the effect of white flour fortification with lysine and/or phosphorus on sensory properties, postprandial glycaemia and insulinemia, as well as postprandial thermogenesis. Most specifically, we aim to: Determine the acceptability and assess sensory differences of the fortified breads. Determine the glycemic response after ingestion of the different fortified breads. Evaluate the variation in energy expenditure after the consumption of the fortified breads.

GLYPALCARE STUDY - Multicenter, Randomized Study for Evaluating Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM)...

Palliative CareDiabetes Mellitus9 more

Cancer patients with known or newly diagnosed (i.e. iatrogenic) Diabetes Mellitus (DM) in Palliative/Supportive Care will be enrolled. Patients will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. Patients included in the first group will monitor glucose levels through Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM), using the FreeStyle Libre 2 (FSL2). The second group is represented by the usual standard way for blood glucose (BG) monitoring (lancing device for finger samples). An interim analysis is foreseen when the half of the expected events (hyperglycemic peaks) will be observed. In case the results of interim analysis show superiority of the CGM (FSL2) group patients of the second group will be switched.

Nut Intake at Night: Effect on Postprandial Glycaemia

Postprandial HyperglycemiaInsulin Resistance

There is some evidence to suggest that the timing of a meal intake directly impacts postprandial insulin and glucose responses, with meals consumed later during the day being more metabolically detrimental that the same meals consumed during the day. This information is particularly pertinent to the 16% of people employed in shift-work professions in Australia who have little choice but to eat during the late evening and overnight. The purpose of this study is to compare two effect of different meals or snacks (control vs test meal) on blood glucose and insulin at night time in healthy adults. This study will enable to develop suitable meals to consume at night time that can reduce the higher glucose and insulin responses that are a consequence of eating late into the night.

Evaluation of the Impact of Pancreatectomy on Systemic Immunity

Pancreas CancerPancreatectomy; Hyperglycemia

The study aims at establishing the profile of the immune reaction that occurs in the early surgical suites after pancreatectomy. Blood samples will be collected before surgery, (Day-1), at day0, and after surgery at Day 1, Day 3, Day 7 at 1 year after pancreatectomy. Mass cytometry, genomic and transcriptomic approaches will be used to evaluate the immune systemic modulation after surgery.

Effects of Resistant Starch in a Baked Snack Bar on a Post-prandial Glycemic and Insulinemic Response...

HyperglycemiaDiabetes1 more

About two-thirds of adults in the United States are overweight or obese which can cause adverse health consequences for those individuals. Post-prandial hyperglycemia is one of these possible consequences and is associated with a higher risk for Type 2 Diabetes. Controlling hyperglycemia is important in the prevention of the onset of diabetes and obesity. Resistant starch is a dietary carbohydrate which is not completely digested in the gut and produces energy for the body to use. The investigators are interested in assessing the effects of resistant starch on postprandial blood glucose and insulin concentrations. Aim: To assess the effects of a resistant starch on post-prandial blood glucose and insulin concentrations. Hypothesis: A baked snack bar with a resistant starch will blunt and sustain the post-prandial rise in blood glucose and insulin concentrations compared to a baked snack bar with maltodextrin (an easily digested carbohydrate).

Clinical Evaluation of a Specific Enteral Diet for Diabetics

HyperglycemiaDiabetics1 more

The hypothesis of the proposed trials is that the regular intake of a specific diet designed for enteral nutrition of type 2 diabetic patients results into a better nutritional status. Thus, the aim of the study is to scientifically evaluate the healthy effects of the administration of an enteral complete diet for diabetic patients (T-Diet plus Diabet).
