Effect of Weight Loss on Intermuscular Adipose Tissue (IMAT) Signaling
The goal of this intervention study is to learn about how weight loss impacts molecular signaling of intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) in individuals with obesity. The main question it aims to answer is how inflammatory molecules secreted by IMAT promote muscle insulin resistance and inflammation, and how these same molecules …
Effect of Daily Erythritol Versus Sucrose Intake Over 5 Weeks on Glucose Tolerance in Adolescents
Childhood and adolescence are crucial periods for prevention of obesity, as obese children are five times more likely to be obese at adulthood than lean children. To this purpose, sugar consumption should be reduced. The sugar alcohol erythritol is increasingly popular as sugar substitute in the food industry and is …
The Sweet Kids Study (Stevia on Weight and Energy Effect Over Time)
This is an 8 to14-week three-arm randomized controlled in children 8 to 12 years old. The main purpose of the study is to evaluate if stevia (as with other sweeteners and consistent with prior research in children and adults) has benefits for weight control and metabolic function relative to caloric …
Evaluation of Molecular Hydrogen Supplementation to Enhance the Efficacy of Weight Loss Retreat in Overweight and Obese Adolescents
This randomized controlled trial evaluates whether molecular hydrogen supplementation enhances the effectiveness of a 4-week weight loss retreat in overweight and obese adolescents. Outcome measures include: body composition, physical status, blood samples (insulin sensitivity, lipid profiles, markers of oxidative stress and inflammation) and autonomic nervous system function.
A Sensory Strategy to Cut Sugary Beverages in African/American and Latine Adolescents
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether replacing sugary sodas with unsweetened, flavored sparkling waters can reduce added sugar intake and improve health in Black/African American and Latine adolescents with obesity who prefer sweet-tasting beverages. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does replacing sugary sodas …
Pregnancy Outcomes: Effects of Metformin Study (POEM Study)
One approach to prevent the rising burden of diabetes is to address the issue of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). GDM has a growing prevalence up to 5-10% (and even higher in specific subgroups), with a pregnant population becoming older and more obese worldwide. GDM increases the risks of complications during …
Metabolic Adaptations to Weight Loss With and Without Exercise
Study Purpose: The combination of caloric restriction and exercise is the most common first-line treatment for obesity-related disorders, yet we know very little about how these two very different treatments work together. A deeper understanding about mechanisms underlying the health benefits of adding exercise to a weight loss program will …
Assessment of Pancreatic Beta Cell Mass and Function by Positron Emission Tomography Imaging in Human Diabetes Mellitus
The goals of this project are to build an experimental tool to dissect out in vivo pancreatic beta cell mass (BCM) and beta cell function (BCF) and to assess for the first time these two determinants of beta cell functional mass (BCFxM) in obesity and in various stages of type …
Cellular Therapy for Type 1 Diabetes Using Mesenchymal Stem Cells
The goal of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of fresh metabolically active allogeneic umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (UC-MSCs) for the treatment of new-onset type 1 diabetes (T1D) and to understand the mechanisms of protection. If proven effective, such a strategy can be used as a …
Islet Transplantation in Type 1 Diabetic Kidney Allograft
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety of islet transplantation when performed after kidney transplantation, which may provide more normal control of blood sugar without the need for insulin shots. Islets are special clusters of cells within the pancreas that produce insulin. These cells will be …
