The Effects of Glucagon on Hepatic Metabolism in People With Type 2 Diabetes After Caloric Restriction
Caloric restriction (and RYGB) improves insulin action and lowers fasting glucose, glucagon and EGP, without changes in postprandial EGP and glucagon concentrations. Caloric restriction also improves hepatic steatosis and lowers fasting AA. These changes may represent restoration of glucagon's hepatic actions. This experiment will determine whether caloric restriction improves glucagon's …
Effect of Glucagon on Fasting Insulin Secretion and Glucose Metabolism in Subjects Without Type 2 Diabetes
Fasting hyperglycemia contributes disproportionately to nonenzymatic glycosylation and the microvascular complications of type 2 diabetes. However, little is known about the regulation of glucose concentrations in the fasting state relative to what is known about the postprandial state. The proposed experiment is part of a series of experiments designed to …
Growth Hormone Resistance of Beta-cells in People With a Family History of Type 2 Diabetes
The purpose of the research study is to better understand how beta-cells (cells in the pancreas that make insulin and help regulate blood sugar) respond to growth hormone in people with a family history of type 2 diabetes at the University of Missouri. Our aim is to advance understanding of …
Nested Pilot Study Comparing Two Treatments to Reduce Type 2 Diabetes Risk in At-Risk Delawareans
This nested pilot Randomized Clinical Trial will determine whether the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) enhanced with evidence-based sleep health and time restricted eating interventions ("DPP++") is more effective than the DPP alone for improving metabolic and cardiovascular metrics in 40 overweight/obese adults with prediabetes.
Effects of Ondansetron on Gastrointestinal Sensorimotor Dysfunctions in Diabetes Mellitus and Dyspepsia
Researchers are trying to understand why people with indigestion and diabetes mellitus have gastrointestinal symptoms and in particular to understand whether symptoms are related to increased sensitivity to nutrients in the small intestine. As part of this investigation, a medication called ondansetron will also be studied to determine its effects …
Pioglitazone Versus Empagliflozin for Chronic Pancreatitis/Recurrent Acute Pancreatitis Associated Diabetes Mellitus
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy of pioglitazone (PIO) versus empagliflozin (EMPA) to improve glycemic control in people with Chronic Pancreatitis (CP) or Recurrent Acute Pancreatitis (RAP) associated with Diabetes Mellitus (DM). To evaluate mixed meal response in PIO versus EMPA group to better understand physiology of …
Therapeutic Synergy of Probiotic Augmented Conventional Antidiabetic Pharmacotherapy in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
To compare the effects of metformin, insulin, and their combination with multistrain probiotics on glycemic control and insulin resistance in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), assessed by FPG, HbA1c, fasting insulin, and HOMA-IR. To compare the effects of metformin, insulin, and their combination with multistrain probiotics on inflammatory biomarkers …
This Study is to Evaluate Whether Receiving Education and Glucose Monitoring With the CGM Device Will Improve Patient-reported Outcomes by Improving Patient's Satisfaction and Quality of Life (QOL) With Glucose Monitoring Device
The purpose of the study is to improve patient-reported outcomes by improving patient's satisfaction and quality of life (QOL) with glucose monitoring device through pre and post satisfaction survey of patient with diabetes.
Measurement of Ocular Blood Flow and Retinal Oxygen Extraction in Diabetic Patients
The prevalence of diabetes is increasing, with type 2 diabetes mellitus comprising over 90% of cases. Diabetes mellitus complications, including diabetic retinopathy (DR), impose significant health burdens. GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonists show promise in improving cardiovascular and kidney outcomes, but their effects on retinal microvasculature …
Study on Pancreatic Islets in Patients Undergoing (Partial) Pancreatectomy (PRECISE)
The study investigates the mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of diabetes by examining structural and functional properties of islets of Langerhans in pancreas specimen from patients undergoing (partial) pancreatectomy.
