Effect of Insulin Lowering on Lipogenesis
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare a one-week course of diazoxide (2 mg/kg per dose x 14 doses) and placebo in people with obesity and insulin resistance (IR) with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). The main question it aims to answer are how mitigation of compensatory …
Randomized, Double-blind Crossover Trial Comparing Low-GI Functional vs. Standard Wholegrain Carbohydrates on Glycolipid Metabolism and Vascular Stress Markers in Adults With Suboptimal Triglyceridemia
Low-glycemic index (GI) carbohydrates help prevent type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease by reducing postprandial glucose, insulin spikes, inflammation, and triglyceride synthesis. They improve weight, lipid profiles, and vascular health. Our study will compare functional low-GI vs. standard wholegrain carbs in a Mediterranean diet to assess their effect on the …
Study of Oral Uremic Toxin Absorbent/Probiotics to Modulate Systemic Inflammation and Retard the Progression of Chronic Kidney Disease in Patients With Diabetes.
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by insufficient insulin secretion or insulin resistance, leading to hyperglycemia. Chronic inflammation and immune system dysfunction are characteristic of DM and can produce a plethora of cytokines and chemokines, thereby contributing to diabetic complications such as cardiovascular events and diabetic vasculopathy …
Gastric Ultrasound After Clear Fluid Intake in Diabetic and Non-Diabetic Pregnant Women
Pulmonary aspiration of gastric contents during anesthesia is a serious perioperative complication associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Pregnant patients are at increased risk of aspiration due to physiological changes such as delayed gastric emptying and increased intra-abdominal pressure. In addition, diabetes may impair gastric motility because of autonomic neuropathy, …
Effect of Ephedrine, Phenylepinephrine, and Norepinephrine on Myometrial Contractility in Pregnant People With Type II and Gestational Diabetes During Cesarean Section: An In-vitro Study
The goal of this study is to learn about how medication that is used to help treat low blood pressure during a Cesarean delivery (CD) can cause changes to the uterine muscle tissue and its ability to contract, in patients with Type II and gestational diabetes. Spinal anesthesia administered during …
Small Bowel Diversion
In an effort to replicate metabolic surgery's durable results in metabolic disease while minimizing its risks, two innovative methods has been created. Two surgical methods to create a bowel-to-bowel anastomosis, similar to the type used in current metabolic surgeries. It be to create a jejuno-ileal, side-to-side anastomosis and jejunocolic side-to-side …
Natural Cervical Ripening to Prevent Pharmacological Induction of Labor - a Pilot Study.
As of today, around 25% of all vaginal births happen after induction of labor (IOL). The internal guidelines of the University Hospital Zurich currently recommend pregnant women with a non-insulin dependent gestational diabetes an IOL around term. One possibility to prevent an IOL and increase the chance for a spontaneous …
The Trend of Copeptin Levels and Its Clinical Value for Postoperative CDI in Pediatric Patients After NSI in ICU
Central diabetes insipidus (CDI),a disease caused by the decrease of AVP (a hormone involved in the control of water-electrolyte balance ) secretion and characerized by polyuria, is a common complication after neurosurgerical intervention and there is a lack of diagnostic criteria.Since the surgry casuses damage to patients' AVP-secreting neuronal cells, …
FEED-Cystic Fibrosis (FEED-CF)
The goal of this study is to determine the extent to which excess dietary sugars serve as a precipitating factor in glucose intolerance in adults with cystic fibrosis (CF), a population at especially high risk for a unique form of diabetes (CF-related diabetes, CFRD) and with standard-of-care dietary recommendations (high-calorie, …
Metformin for People With CFRD on CFTR Modulator Therapy to Improve Ion Channel Function
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of metformin to improve airway ion channel function in those with CF-related diabetes (CFRD)
