Effects of Antipsychotics on Brain Insulin Action in Females
Females treated with antipsychotics have higher rates of comorbid metabolic syndrome than males. Despite this, females have historically been excluded from many mechanistic studies due to confounding effects of menstrual cycles. Recent evidence suggests that brain insulin resistance may be an underlying mechanism through which antipsychotics may exert their metabolic …
Human Models of Selective Insulin Resistance: Alpelisib, Part I
The goal of this clinical trial is to understand how the blood sugar-lowering hormone insulin works in healthy adults versus those who are at risk for type 2 diabetes. The study will use a drug called alpelisib, which interferes with insulin's actions in the body, to answer the study's main …
Single vs Multi-Dose Insulin for Glycemic Control (SUGAR)
The goal of this clinical trial is to see if diabetes in pregnancy can be treated with once daily dosing of insulin instead of once daily dosing plus insulin with meals. The main question this study aims to answer is: Can a once daily dose of long-acting insulin control blood …
MANATEE-T1D: Metformin ANd AutomaTEd Insulin Delivery System Effects on Renal Vascular Resistance, Insulin Sensitivity, and Cardiometabolic Function in Youth With Type 1 Diabetes
Diabetic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in people with type 1 diabetes and are exacerbated with longer duration of diabetes and time outside goal glycemic range. Yet, type 1 diabetes is a complex disease with pathophysiology that extends beyond beta-cell injury and …
Acupuncture or Metformin for Insulin Resistance in Women With PCOS
The hypothesis is that acupuncture is equally effective as metformin (both treatments combined with lifestyle management) in improving whole body glucose homeostasis in insulin resistant women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and that both are superior to lifestyle management alone. The investigators hypothesize that acupuncture and metformin induce ovulation and …
Long-term, Substantial Weight Loss and Insulin Regulation of Lipolysis
It is not known how much improvement in insulin regulated lipolysis (the breakdown of triglycerides) occurs following substantial, sustained weight loss. Researchers will test the effects of inflammation and lipolysis regulation in people before and after bariatric surgery (sleeve gastrectomy) to answer these questions.
Automated Insulin Delivery for Type 1 Diabetes - Beyond Glucose Metrics
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if transitioning to automated insulin delivery (AID) systems, can improve objectively measured sleep quality and quantity and alleviate cardiovascular risk factors in both children and adults diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the …
A Trial of Three- and Seven-days Insulin Infusions Set
More and more children and adolescents are using diabetes devices attached to the skin. The attachment of infusions sets to the skin provoke allergenic or toxic eczema, the continous infusion of insulin provoke subcutaneous changes and prolonged wear time seems to increase the risk of these complication. On the other …
Investigating the Insulin Resistance in Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes
Numerous studies have provided evidence of a correlation between Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and cognitive dysfunction, specifically in the realms of complex attention, information processing, and executive function. These impairments have been observed in middle-aged and elderly individuals with T2DM, with longer diabetes duration, suboptimal glycemic control, and the …
Disentangling the Effect of Brain Insulin Resistance on Brain Health
People with diabetes are at increased risk of developing dementia, including Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia. In addition, persons with diabetes have more pronounced age-related brain atrophy and cognitive difficulties compared to people without diabetes. The mechanisms behind the effects on the brain of diabetes are still unclear. New research …
