Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Nicotinamide in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 and Liver Fibrosis (NICOFIB)
The objective of this clinical trial, a pilot study, is to assess the impact of nicotinamide (NAM) on individuals with hepatic fibrosis. The main question it aims to answer is: To determine if the treatment with NAM is able to arrest, or even reduce, the hepatic fibrosis. In addition, we …
Inspire HER: Inspiring the Heart and Emotions for Radical Health
Poor heart health puts Black women at risk for a shorter life with more illness than people of any other non-indigenous racial group. We will refine and conduct a randomized, wait-list controlled trial of Inspire HER (a heart health lifestyle intervention for Black women that provides health education, physical activity, …
In-Person Lifestyle Program for Black Adolescent Girls at Risk for Type 2 Diabetes
The aim of this study is to look at changes in diabetes-related risk factors in Black adolescent girls who are at risk for type 2 diabetes and their primary female caregiver after both participating in a 12-week in-person lifestyle program.
Effect of Cryolipolysis on Insulin Resistance
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a complex chronic illness associated with a state of high blood glucose level, or hyperglycemia, occurring from deficiencies in insulin secretion, action, or both. Diabetes mellitus is the name given to a wide spectrum group of disorders characterized by raised plasma glucose.Type 1 diabetes is characterized …
Improving the Collaborative Health of Minority COVID-19 Survivor and Carepartner Dyads
This study tests the efficacy of a dyadic intervention to mitigate the adverse health consequences of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS- CoV-2 )(COVID-19) in African American (AA) adults with pre-existing chronic health conditions and their informal carepartners (IC). Socioeconomically disadvantaged, older, and Black/African American from rural regions are …
Drug Interaction Potential of Pro-Inflammatory Conditions
Pro-inflammatory cytokines, which are elevated in pro-inflammatory disease states (e.g., type II diabetes mellitus \[T2DM\], irritable bowel diseases \[IBD\], and end stage renal disease \[ESRD\]) have been shown to inhibit hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes, including members of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) family, and drug transporters; resultantly, pro-inflammatory diseases have been demonstrated …
Black Impact: The Mechanisms Underlying Psychosocial Stress Reduction in a Cardiovascular Health Intervention
Lower attainment of cardiovascular health (CVH), indicated by the American Heart Association's Life's Simple 7 (LS7; physical activity, diet, cholesterol, blood pressure, body mass index, smoking, glycemia) and Life's Essential 8 (LE8; LS7+sleep) metrics, is a major contributor to Black men having the shortest life-expectancy of any non-indigenous race/sex group. …

Longitudinal Multi-Omic Profiles to Reveal Mechanisms of Obesity-Mediated Insulin Resistance
This 12-week controlled diet and weight intervention study seeks to define the molecular pathways that link excess body weight to the development of insulin resistance (IR). Blood, adipose and stool are sampled at three timepoints; baseline, peak weight (4 weeks) and post weight loss to monitor changes in cellular processes. …
