Clinical trial for Overweight and Obesity | Type2 Diabetes | Prediabetes , Effects of Gelesis200 on Appetite Parameters Food Intake and Glycemic Control in Overweight or Obese Prediabetic Subjects: A Sub-Study of LIGHT-UP

Although type II diabetes is associated with both microvascular and macrovascular complications, duration of diabetes and severity of glycemia are strongly associated only with the former. Since prediabetic individuals are hyperinsulinemia, and since hyperinsulinemia may be a cardiovascular risk fac …

Almost 37% of persons living in the US aged | 18 years have pre-diabetes, Persons with pre-diabetes are at high risk of developing type-2 diabetes (advanced hyperglycemia) and also have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease than those with normal blood glucose levels. Furthermore, results from cross-sectional studies indicate that microvascular complications arising from hyperglycemia may begin at the pre-diabetic stage. There is evidence that progression of pre-diabetes may be halted or even reversed with lifestyle and pharmaceutical interventions. However, less than 10% of US adults with pre-diabetes are aware of their condition, which indicates that current pre-diabetes screening methods are inadequate. US physicians need a comprehensive pre-diabetes screening tool. To this end, non-invasive screening score sets were created to screen for IFG, IGT and elevated HbA1c. Because preliminary analyses indicated that the screening accuracy of the pre-diabetes screening score sets would be enhanced by not

Prediabetes is a common state in which blood glucose levels are elevated, but are not elevated high enough to be considered Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). The worldwide prevalence of prediabetes is high and rapidly increasing. People with prediabetes are at increased risk for developing a variety of chronic diseases. Most notably, prediabetes nearly always precedes diagnosis of T2D, a poorly-controlled disease adversely affecting 14% of adults in the United States. T2D is responsible for increased risk of heart disease, stroke, blindness and other vision problems, kidney disease, amputations and death. Prediabetes often progresses to T2D relatively quickly, as pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction perpetuates. There are currently limited pharmacological options available for safely reducing the burden of prediabetes. Furthermore, these pharmacological options often carry potentially deleterious side effects. Low-risk alternatives are needed where lifestyle modifications, such as increased physical activity ...

|p|Cardiovascular risk of prediabetes is still subject to controversies. We analyzed the associations between insulin resistance, adipokines and incipient atherosclerosis estimated by intima-media thickness (IMT) in a cross-sectional study on 122 prediabetic subjects without clinical signs of atherosclerotic disease. Homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR, calculated as fasting insulin × fasting plasma glucose / 22.5), adiponectin, leptin, leptin-to-adiponectin ratio, carotid and femoral IMT were evaluated. We also assessed other parameters related to insulin resistance and adipokines (HbA1c, anthropometric and lipid parameters), as they may also influence atherosclerosis. Carotid IMT was correlated to adiponectin and leptin-to-adiponectin ratio (all p < 0.05), but not with HOMA-IR or leptin, while femoral IMT showed no relationship with these factors. After adjusting for leptin, leptin-to-adiponectin ratio, triglycerides, HDL-cholesterol, cholesterol-to-HDL ratio, triglycerides

Increasing evidence suggests there is a relationship between cognitive impairment and metabolic dysfunction. Diabetes is a chronic disease, and metabolic factors affecting brain metabolisms, such as serum glucose, insulin, and glucagon, are altered according to disease progression. In our previous study, we applied hyperpolarized [1-13C] pyruvate magnetic resonance spectroscopy in prediabetic mice after feeding them a 60% high-fat diet (HFD) for 6 months. Ultimately, we detected significantly increased [1-13C]lactate conversion in the whole brain and an almost five-fold increased [1-13C]lactate/pyruvate ratio in the hippocampal region. In the present study, we induced diabetes in mice by injecting streptozotocin and feeding them an HFD for 6 months. Unlike in prediabetic mice, [1-13C]lactate conversion in the diabetic mice did not differ from that in the control group, but [1-13C]lactate/total 13C ratio showed an almost 1.4-fold increase in the hippocampal region. We measured the amount of the lactate

Aims/hypothesis: Individuals with type 2 diabetes have aberrant intestinal microbiota. However, recent studies suggest that metformin alters the composition and functional potential of gut microbiota, thereby interfering with the diabetes-related microbial signatures. We tested whether specific gut microbiota profiles are associated with prediabetes (defined as fasting plasma glucose of 6.1-7.0 mmol/l or HbA1c of 42-48 mmol/mol [6.0-6.5%]) and a range of clinical biomarkers of poor metabolic health. Methods: In the present case-control study, we analysed the gut microbiota of 134 Danish adults with prediabetes, overweight, insulin resistance, dyslipidaemia and low-grade inflammation and 134 age- and sex-matched individuals with normal glucose regulation. Results: We found that five bacterial genera and 36 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were differentially abundant between individuals with prediabetes and those with normal glucose regulation. At the genus level, the abundance of Clostridium ...

Prediabetes is a condition in which your blood sugar level is chronically high, but not so high that it is classified as actual diabetes. But the disease still poses health risks, including the much greater likelihood of developing full-blown type 2 diabetes.. In this case, you need to check your blood sugar level every day and insulin injections if necessary. You have an increased risk of diseases affecting the heart, kidneys and pancreas, as well as strokes. The total lifespan of a diabetic is usually about 10 years shorter than the average.. If you have been diagnosed with prediabetes, it is important to change your lifestyle immediately. By doing this, you can avoid diabetes and completely reverse prediabetes. If youre overweight (one of the main risk factors for prediabetes), losing just 10 to 15 pounds can significantly improve insulin sensitivity and blood sugar control.. To combat prediabetes, your best strategy is to eat as if you already have diabetes. It wont be easy, but its ...

Authors of a report published March 22 in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report say that just over 11% of US adults with prediabetes were told during 2009-2010 that they have the condition. The report also indicates awareness of prediabetes was low (,14%) across all population subgroups and different levels of health care access or use and other factors.. The report is based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), an ongoing, stratified, multistage probability sample of the noninstitutionalized US civilian population. This analysis was conducted using data from 3 sampling cycles of NHANES, with examination response rates of approximately 77% for 2005-2006, 75% for 2007-2008, and 77% for 2009-2010. During 2005-2010, the percentage of persons aged ≥20 years with prediabetes who were aware of their prediabetes remained low but was slightly higher during 2009-2010 (11.1%) than during 2005-2006 (7.7) During 2005-2010, prevalence of prediabetes awareness was lower among ...

Elevated levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) have been related to CVD risk mainly in nondiabetic populations6; data in diabetic populations are scarce. Much less is known about the relationship of adhesion molecules to insulin resistance, diabetes, and CVD, respectively. This commentary, therefore, focuses on CRP as a marker of chronic, subclinical inflammation related to CVD.. CRP levels are elevated in nondiabetic individuals with increased insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome,7 in patients with type 2 diabetes,8 and less consistently so in patients with type 1 diabetes.9 Components of the insulin-resistance syndrome, including obesity, rather than hyperglycemia contribute significantly to elevated CRP levels.7,8 A proinflammatory state prevails also in prediabetic individuals 5 years before the actual onset of (type 2) diabetes.10 In prediabetic individuals, increased insulin resistance rather than impaired insulin secretion defines the proatherogenic state, as exemplified by elevated ...

The prevalence of pre-diabetes - higher than normal blood glucose levels - has tripled within the space of 8 years in England, reveals research published in the online journal BMJ Open.. More than a third of adults in England now have pre-diabetes, the findings suggest, with those who are disadvantaged and of black and minority ethnicity disproportionately affected. If nothing is done to halt this trend, the country faces a steep rise in the prevalence of diabetes, as up to one in 10 of those with pre-diabetes will progress to diabetes every year, warn the authors.. They base their findings on an analysis of data collected for the representative Health Survey for England for the years 2003, 2006, 2009 and 2011 and those participants who had provided a blood sample. In all, the data covered more than 20, 000 people.. Pre-diabetes was classified as a glycated haemoglobin - a measure of blood glucose control - of between 5.7% and 6.4%. Diabetes is usually classified as a glycated haemoglobin of ...

Study Hypothesis:. Daily consumption of almonds over 16 weeks will produce a decrease in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels in adults with pre-diabetes.. Lay Summary:. Persons developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) will typically first have a condition called pre-diabetes. Lifestyle is a major factor that determines whether pre-diabetes becomes full T2DM. Lifestyle includes dietary habits and physical activity. Many people develop T2DM because of poor dietary habits and a sedentary lifestyle. Moreover, eating a high-fat, high-sugar diet can damage the blood vessels and increase the risk of strokes and heart attacks. A persons diet may produce substances in the blood that can interfere with the production of insulin in the pancreas. Sometimes, these changes in the insulin producing cells are serious and can eventually interfere with how the cells in the body use blood sugar, which causes T2DM. Techniques are available to measure circulating substances in the blood of persons with pre-diabetes ...

Prevalence of diabetes and prediabetes, as well as cardiovascular disease is very high among Veterans. The aim of the study is to evaluate the rate of progression of prediabetes and the factors associated with progression to diabetes. This is an observational, retrospective data-base study of progression of prediabetes to diabetes at Veterans Health Administration at Columbia, South Carolina, diagnosed between 2008 and 2019 based on HbA1C (5.7 to 6.4). We calculated the time interval to progress to diabetes from the date of baseline data, and then the percentage of subjects progressed to diabetes is calculated as 1st year, 2nd year and so on. Statistical analysis included descriptive statistics and correlation of parameters with progression to diabetes. Subjects with prediabetes identified include 72,604 with mean age 66 and mean HbA1C of 5.9. Among the study population, only 8% were women. Association of hypertension was 55% and atherosclerotic coronary artery disease was 13%. Among the study

Pre-diabetes: Why your doctors advice to watch it is the worst advice you could follow. (Before proceeding with the topics of pre-diabetes and diabetes, I highly recommend that you read my article on insulin resistance (HERE), as pre-diabetes is preceeded typically by years of insulin resistance.) Saying you are pre-diabetic is kinda like saying…

Primary care nurse-led prediabetes interventions are seldom reported. We examined the implementation and feasibility of a 6-month multilevel primary care nurse-led prediabetes lifestyle intervention compared with current practice in patients with prediabetes, with weight and glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) as outcomes. This study used a convergent mixed methods design involving a 6-month pragmatic non-randomised pilot study with a qualitative process evaluation, and was conducted in two neighbouring provincial cities in New Zealand, with indigenous Māori populations comprising 18.2% and 23.0%, respectively. Participants were non-pregnant adults aged ≤ 70 years with newly diagnosed prediabetes (HbA1c 41-49 mmol/mol), body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2 and not prescribed Metformin. A structured dietary intervention tool delivered by primary care nurses with visits at baseline, 2-3 weeks, 3 months and 6 months was implemented in four intervention practices. Four control practices continued to provide usual

Prediabetes is a silent condition: You likely will not experience any symptoms from it. But allowing prediabetes to develop into diabetes will most definitely lead to symptoms, which is exactly what you want to avoid. If youre concerned that you may be at risk for prediabetes, ask your doctor to order a blood test. Two types of blood tests are used: a fasting blood glucose test (which is taken after you fast overnight) and a blood glucose test taken two hours after you consume 75 grams of glucose. Following are the lab results your doctor will use to determine if your blood glucose is normal, if you have prediabetes, or if you have diabetes.. ...

Results. Age-standardised prevalence of pre-diabetes and diabetes mellitus among Sami men was 3.4 and 5.5%, respectively. Corresponding values for non-Sami men were 3.3 and 4.6%. Age-standardised prevalence of pre-diabetes and diabetes mellitus for Sami women was 2.7 and 4.8%, respectively, while corresponding values for non-Sami women were 2.3 and 4.5%. Relative risk ratios for dysglycaemia among Sami participants compared with non-Sami participants were significantly different in different geographical regions, with the southern region having the highest prevalence of pre-diabetes and diabetes mellitus among Sami participants ...

The prediabetic state is characterized by normal glucose tolerance but decreased insulin secretion following glucose stimulation. In spite of our earlier beliefs, this state is not always devoid of metabolic consequences. Thus, the disappearance rate of intravenously administered glucose (k-value), although within the normal range, is significantly lower than in the control group. In a few prediabetics the regulation of hepatic glucose output resembles that of diabetics. In some, the lipolytic response to physical exercise is increased to the extent found in manifest diabetes. Furthermore, prediabetic mothers may give birth to children with diabetic fetopathy. Many of the newborns of these women show high k-values as do children of diabetic women.. The decreased insulin output of prediabetics and mild diabetics is probably due to a decreased sensitivity for glucose of a specific receptor of the beta cells of the pancreas. This suggestion is supported by the finding that both prediabetics and ...

Diabetes is a common condition in seniors. More than 25 percent of Americans over 60 years of age have diabetes (10.9 million persons) and almost 400,000 Americans 65 and older are diagnosed with diabetes every year. The vast majority of these cases are type 2, as age is a risk factor for this type of diabetes.. Another condition, prediabetes, is even more common and probably affects an additional 50 percent of Americans over 65. Prediabetes is where ones blood glucose level is above normal, but not high enough to warrant the diagnosis of diabetes. It is important for seniors to be aware of prediabetes because it is very common and greatly increases ones risk to develop type 2 diabetes.. As you get older, preventing or managing diabetes can become a bit more challenging, but its not impossible. Exercising is one of the most important things you can do to take care of your health.. Managing your diabetes. There are several things you need to do to manage your diabetes, at any age. Keep your ...

Adjusted analyses show that prediabetes has a small increased mortality risk (HR=1.04; 95% CI 1.00 to 1.08). Persons who had prediabetes and elevated serum ferritin had an increased HR for death (HR=1.14; 95% CI 1.04 to 1.24) compared with those who had normal ferritin and normal glucose. Among persons with prediabetes who had elevated TS, they had an increased mortality risk (HR=1.88; 95% CI 1.06 to 3.30) compared with those with normal TS levels and normal glucose ...

Eva Decroli. Observational study with cross-sectional design was aimed to reveal differences in the level of survivin and raf-l kinase in prediabetes, uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and controlled T2DM related to HbAlc and serum triglyceride in diabetes group. In this study, we included 30 people as prediabetes group, 30 people as controlled T2DM group, and 30 people as uncontrolled T2DM 8troup, and to gather normal reference of s.urvivin and raf-l kinase level, we examined 10 non diabetic healthypeople. Level of survivin and raf-l kinase was measured using ELISA technique, HbAlc was measured using HpLC and triglyceride was measured using enzymatic technique. in this study, we compared the level of survivin and raf-1 kinase between prediabetes, controlled and uncontrolled T2DM. We also analyzed correlation between survivin and raf-l kinase with HbAlc and triglyceride level in diabetic goup. data were analyzed with gaired-t-test, Mann-Whitney, and Spearman correlation with P,0,05 ...

We developed a model to compare the impacts of different lifestyle interventions among prediabetes individuals and to identify the optimal age groups for such interventions. A stochastic simulation was developed to replicate the prediabetes and diabetes trends (1997-2010) in the U.S. adult population. We then simulated the population-wide impacts of three lifestyle diabetes prevention programs, i.e., the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP), DPP-YMCA, and the Healthy Living Partnerships to Prevent Diabetes (HELP-PD), over a course of 10, 15 and 30 years. Our model replicated the temporal trends of diabetes in the U.S. adult population. Compared to no intervention, the diabetes incidence declined 0.3 per 1,000 by DPP, 0.2 by DPP-YMCA, and 0.4 by HELP-PD over the 15-year period. Our simulations identified HELP-PD as the most cost-effective intervention, which achieved the highest 10-year savings of $38 billion for those aged 25-65, assuming all eligible individuals participate in the intervention and

People with pre-diabetes (i.e., IFG and/or IGT) are at increased risk of developing overt diabetes (1-3). The present study indicates that fasting EGP is inappropriately increased and glucose disappearance is inappropriately decreased in individuals with IFG when considered in light of the higher prevailing glucose and insulin concentrations. It therefore appears that both abnormalities contribute to IFG. On the other hand, EGP is promptly suppressed in individuals with IFG and/or IGT after meal ingestion. The rate of meal appearance also did not differ among groups, indicating that excessive glucose absorption and/or decreased hepatic glucose uptake does not cause postprandial hyperglycemia in individuals with pre-diabetes. In contrast, postprandial glucose disposal was decreased in individuals with IGT or diabetes, with the decrease being most evident in individuals who also had IFG. Both the defects in insulin secretion and the ability of insulin to stimulate glucose uptake contributed to the ...

A potential drug treatment based on blocking the MIF protein is already being explored. In a study presented last year at an ACS national meeting, the researchers reported they were able to prevent diabetes in a group of mice by using a synthetic compound called ISO-1 to block the MIF protein. If human studies prove the effectiveness of ISO-1, the compound or its derivatives could ultimately save lives, reduce health care costs and help prediabetic people, particularly children, avoid a lifetime of insulin injections, Al-Abed says. Prediabetic individuals are those who have blood markers - either antibodies or genetic markers - that are predictive of the disease but are still able to produce insulin ...

I never imagined myself to be a candidate for type 2 diabetes.. As a rather slightly built individual, with a BMI in the normal range, and although carrying a few kilos of middle age spread, I was under the impression that I would need to be overweight or obese and suffering the associated metabolic syndrome-x symptoms of high cholesterol and high blood pressure, to be at risk of developing type 2 diabetes.. Initially, I was investigating my disordered sleeping, which first took me to counseling and then to CPAP therapy. After these remedies proved ineffective, I undertook a fasting blood glucose test, which to my surprise, and that of my GP, gave a reading of 6.3 mmol/L, so I also ordered a glucose tolerance test which confirmed the pre-diabetic diagnosis.. This prompted me to learn as much as possible about pre-diabetes and insulin resistance, including the ability to make lifestyle changes to attempt to effect either a cure, or at least slow the progression into full type 2 diabetes.. I found ...

Around 7 million people in the UK have pre-diabetes (3). People with pre-diabetes also known as Impaired Glucose Regulation (IGR), have raised levels of blood sugar, and their cells have started to become resistant to insulin. Without proper care, pre-diabetes can lead to Type 2 diabetes. Some long-term damage may already be happening in the pre-diabetic state, including damage to the circulatory system, the heart and the eyes. For this reason its important to take action as soon as possible. Fortunately, the pre-diabetic condition can be reversed naturally with sensible dietary and lifestyle changes.. The randomized, double-blinded, placebo - controlled trial included 240 men and women who had been diagnosed pre-diabetic All subjects were randomly assigned to receive either curcumin or placebo capsules for 9 months. Those given the curcumin capsules received 6 capsules of 250mg curcumin daily. The researchers recorded changes in insulin resistance and anti-inflammatory cytokines. The ...

Exactly what sugar level is considered prediabetic, and how is that different from diabetes? Here is what you need to know about blood sugar levels.

People with diabetes mellitus have increased infection risk. With diabetes, urinary tract infection (UTI) is more common and has worse outcomes. Here, we investigate how diabetes and insulin resistance impact the kidneys innate defenses and urine sterility. We report that type 2 diabetic mice have increased UTI risk. Moreover, insulin-resistant prediabetic mice have increased UTI susceptibility, independent of hyperglycemia or glucosuria. To identify how insulin resistance affects renal antimicrobial defenses, we genetically deleted the insulin receptor in the kidneys collecting tubules and intercalated cells. Intercalated cells, located within collecting tubules, contribute to epithelial defenses by acidifying the urine and secreting antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) into the urinary stream. Collecting duct and intercalated cell-specific insulin receptor deletion did not impact urine acidification, suppressed downstream insulin-mediated targets and AMP expression, and increased UTI ...

The present project showed that RHI was inversely associated with incident type 2 diabetes as well as HOMA-IR and fasting insulin levels at follow-up in participants who were normoglycemic at baseline. On the other hand, MBA was positively associated with incident (pre)diabetes and fasting glucose levels at follow-up in participants with initial normoglycemia. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first population-based study that assessed longitudinal associations of RHI and MBA with the development of prediabetes as well as type 2 diabetes and related traits. Our longitudinal data extend previous cross-sectional study results and suggest that microvascular endothelial dysfunction might play a role in the development of prediabetes and type 2 diabetes.. A few preceding cross-sectional studies observed significant associations of PAT-derived measures of endothelial function with type 2 diabetes.9 11 16-19 In interpreting the results of these studies, one has to take into account that some of ...

Supplemental Table S1 shows the baseline characteristics of subjects in the cytokine microarray analysis. There were no significant differences in clinical parameters among normoglycemia, prediabetes, and T2DM groups, except for those seen with FPG, HbA1c, homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), sex, age, and creatinine levels. To identify cytokines differentially secreted in subjects with prediabetes and T2DM compared to those with normoglycemia, we collected blood samples from each group and analyzed respective cytokine profiles using a cytokine microarray analysis. The expression patterns of the 41 cytokines that differed by 1.5-fold or more in at least one comparison between any two groups were shown in the heat map image (Fig. 1). We separately sorted out the numbers of up-regulated proteins and down-regulated proteins by comparison between groups using Venn diagram (Supplemental Fig. S1). We also plotted cytokines showing significant changes in subjects with ...

Research shows that adults aged 40-64 years (the target audience) are concerned about their risk for type 2 diabetes and want to be healthier. But they have busy lives-kids, jobs, social events-theres no problem finding a reason to avoid taking care of themselves. They often keep those excuses to themselves, though, making it easier to avoid making healthy changes.. This understanding led to the multi-year campaigns key message: Prediabetes is real, and you could have it. Know where you stand. From there, the creative concept was developed: No one is excused.

This is the first study to systematically review all available evidence on burden of newly diagnosed hyperglycaemia in general, and DM in particular, among patients after the first episode of AP. Prediabetes and/or DM was observed in nearly 40% patients after AP and DM occurred in nearly 25% of patients after AP, 70% of whom required permanent insulin therapy. Further, the severity of AP appeared to have little effect on either prediabetes or DM after AP. Patients after severe AP had only a marginally higher prevalence of both prediabetes (20%) and DM (30%). The meta-regression analysis also showed that the risk of prediabetes or DM after AP is independent of the aetiology, as well as age and gender. This systematic review has also demonstrated that both prediabetes and DM are highly prevalent very early after AP. The prevalence of prediabetes and DM within 12 months of first episode of AP was 19% and 15%, respectively. Unfortunately, there is only one study44 that followed patients with ...

Several studies have evaluated the effect of nut intake on glycemia and insulin levels (21-23), but few have focused on pistachio intake (14,27) and none have been conducted in the prediabetic stage. This is the first study to evaluate the chronic effect of nut intake on glucose metabolism, insulin resistance, inflammation, and related-metabolic risk markers, at both the systemic and molecular levels in prediabetic subjects. The results of this crossover, randomized, controlled clinical trial provide evidence that chronic consumption of pistachio decreases glucose and insulin levels, thus improving insulin resistance and other inflammatory and metabolic risk markers.. A beneficial dose-response effect of pistachios has been observed on postprandial glycemia and insulinemia when pistachios are consumed with carbohydrate foods (24,25).

According to the American Diabetes Association (ADA), diabetes is broadly classified into four categories: type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), gestational diabetes and specific types of diabetes due to other causes.1 However, there is a group of individuals that, in spite of having higher than normal glucose levels, do not meet criteria for diabetes, a condition referred to as pre-diabetes.. There are different definitions of pre-diabetes, but the most common one, the ADA criteria, considers one of the following instances1: (a) impaired fasting plasma glucose (IFG), defined as fasting plasma glucose (FPG) between 100 and 125 mg/dL (5.6-5.9 mmol/L); or (b) impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), defined as a 2-hour plasma glucose value after a 75g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) between 140 and 199 mg/dL (7.8-11.0 mmol/L); or (c) glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels between 5.7% and 6.4% (39-46 mmol/mol).. The prevalence of pre-diabetes varies across countries and ...

AU - Huang, Shih Yi. PY - 2018/4/25. Y1 - 2018/4/25. N2 - Nutritional deficit of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) is closely related to cognitive impairment and depression in later life. Cognitive impairment and depression lead to comorbidities, such as metabolic syndrome, in elderly people. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of dietary n-3 PUFAs on cognition and depressive-like behavior in an accelerated senescence rat model with prediabetic status. Rats were cotreated with d-gal and sucrose solution for 7 months and then fed fish-oil- or flaxseed-oil-rich diets for 3 months. Cognitive impairment analysis and depressive-like behavioral testing were conducted using the Morris water maze (MWM) test and forced swimming test (FST), respectively. The MWM test results revealed that the ...

A new prediabetes awareness campaign was launched in July to increase awareness of the risk of diabetes in Americans. The new campaign DoIHavePrediabetes.org was released as a creative awareness effort developed in collaboration with the American Diabetes Association, American Medical Association, CDC, and the Ad Council.. The campaign encourages participants to take a brief, 1-minute test to determine current risk and provides suggestions for decreasing the likelihood of developing type 2 diabetes (T2DM) entirely. The CDC reports that roughly 30 million Americans have diabetes; however, most of the additional 84 million individuals with prediabetes are unaware of their conditions and the risks to their health if not addressed. What makes this awareness campaign unique is that the education and suggestions to decrease risk of developing T2DM through simple lifestyle changes are delivered using entertaining animal videos created pro bono by Ogivly New York for this Ad Council Campaign. In the ...

Given the burden of type 2 diabetes and its complications, much attention has been given to prevention, beginning with identifying at-risk individuals prior to diagnosis. This has led to the designation of prediabetes, which is an intermediate form of dysglycemia on a spectrum ranging from normal to overt diabetes. The American Diabetes Association defines prediabetes as a fasting glucose of 100 to ,126 mg/dL (impaired fasting glucose [IFG]), a 2-h plasma glucose of 140 to ,200 mg/dL after a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (impaired glucose tolerance [IGT]), or HbA1c 5.7% (39 mmol/mol) to ,6.5% (48 mmol/mol) (1). Fasting glucose ≥100 mg/dL portends an increased risk of diabetes (2,3), cardiovascular disease (CVD) in women (2), and mortality (4). HbA1c levels 5.5% (37 mmol/mol) to ,6.5% (48 mmol/mol) are associated with an increased risk of diabetes and CVD compared with levels ,5.5% (37 mmol/mol) even after adjustment for fasting glucose and key CVD risk factors (3). Because of these ...

We found that CKD prevalence, as estimated by reduced kidney function and presence of albuminuria, was high among those with diabetes, regardless of diagnosis status or GFR estimating equation; approximately 40% of those with undiagnosed diabetes showed evidence of CKD. By applying our final CKD and diabetes prevalence estimates from NHANES to available US Census data on noninstitutionalized adult civilian residents, we estimate that up to 13 million US adults may have undiagnosed or prediabetes and CKD. Although 42% of CKD cases occurred in those without diabetes, 39% of cases occurred in those with undiagnosed diabetes or prediabetes.. A substantial proportion of adults with undiagnosed diabetes had evidence of kidney damage and/or kidney function decline. Current standards of diabetes care recommend annual CKD screening among those with diabetes (12); however, this screening is unlikely to occur in those with undetected diabetes unless the person has another risk factor that is being treated, ...

EL-KARIB, Abbas O et al. Pre-Diabetes Induces Ultrastructural Alterations in the Large Blood Vessel Aorta in Rats. Int. J. Morphol. [online]. 2019, vol.37, n.2, pp.647-653. ISSN 0717-9502. http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0717-95022019000200647.. Excessive consumption of carbohydrate and fat increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. We sought to determine the potential ultrastructural alterations in large blood vessels induced by a high fat and fructose diet (HFD) in a rat model of prediabetes. Rats were either fed with HFD (model group) or a standard laboratory chow (control group) for 15 weeks before being sacrificed. The harvested thoracic aorta tissues were examined using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and blood samples were assayed for biomarkers of pre-diabetes.TEM images showed that HFD induced profound pathological changes to the aortic wall layers, tunica intima and tunica media ultrastructures in the pre-diabetic rats as shown by apoptotic endothelial cells with pyknotic nuclei, ...

One limitation of the current study is that the DPP was not designed to examine racial differences under interventions of metformin and life style change, and therefore it lacked the statistical power for such analysis. To obtain significant results, we thus pooled the data from both male and female participants, and therefore it is unknown whether the observed differences were gender specific. Another limitation is that the current study focuses on lipid profiles by one-year metformin treatment, but HDL-C differences among races in response to metformin appeared to diminish over time. Furthermore, all DPP participants were prediabetic, and therefore whether the observed racial differences can be applied to patients with type 2 diabetes or other metabolic syndrome is uncertain. In addition, the numbers of studied subjects with different races were not well balanced, i.e., there were 602 Whites, 221 AAs and 162 Hispanics. Although the number of 162 in Hispanics can be considered large enough to ...

CONTEXT: Obesity-related chronic inflammation is implicated in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes (T2D). OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to determine the effects of weight loss on immune cells in T2D and prediabetes. DESIGN AND SETTING: Thirteen obese subjects with T2D or prediabetes underwent 24 wk dietary energy restriction with gastric banding surgery at 12 wk. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Measures included weight, waist, and insulin resistance; surface activation marker expression on circulating immune cells; T-helper cell polarization: type 1 (Th1), type 2 (Th2); adipose tissue macrophage number and activation in sc and visceral adipose tissue. RESULTS: Mean total weight loss was 13.5%. There were significant decreases in expression of proinflammatory activation markers: granulocyte CD11b, monocyte CD66b, and T cell CD69 and CD25. Proinflammatory Th1 cell numbers fell by greater than 80%, as did the Th1 to Th2 ratio. The fall in Th1 to Th2 ratio related to weight (P | 0.05) and waist loss (P |

Aims Lipotoxicity has recently been shown to be an important risk factor underlying the pathogenesis of pre-diabetes. However, clinical evidence supporting the treatment of pre-diabetes by improving lipotoxicity is lacking. Here, we conducted an open-label, randomized, controlled trial to investigate whether fenofibrate, the widely used hypolipidaemic agent, might benefit pre-diabetes, with metfomin and diet control, the recommended intervention methods, as positive controls. Methods Newly diagnosed pre-diabetes patients (n = 120) with hypertriglyceridaemia (plasma triglyceride levels between 1.8 and 4.5 mmol/l) were randomly assigned by computer-generated randomization sequence to either control group (no intervention), fenofibrate group (200 mg once a day), metformin group (500 mg three times a day) or diet-controlled group (diet recommendation). Plasma biochemistry examination was performed every 2 months. The primary endpoint was the outcome of the natural course of pre-diabetes, evaluated ...

there is little to no scientific evidence linking prediabetes to diabetes. ... prediabetes has not been found to cause health problems in people who have been so diagnosed.. Piller outlines the history of the coinage of the term, relating that it came about as representatives from the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and other diabetes-related institutions met to discuss the possible implications of patients with above-normal levels of glucose in their blood. The fear was that prediabetes would lead to full-blown diabetes and thus there existed an opportunity to prevent the disease if prediabetes could be treated.. Piller argues that the problem was a lack of evidence to suggest that might be the case. But that did not stop the CDC and many other institutions from adopting the term and using it as a warning marker for people with elevated glucose levels. Piller also suggests another problem. The ADA is a nonprofit organization and relies on donations to survive. Much of those funds, he found, ...

The study represented a segue into precision medicine for humans, said senior author Professor David James, Leonard P. Ullmann Chair of Metabolic Systems Biology at the Charles Perkins Centre.. Precision medicine classifies individuals according to their susceptibility or response to a particular disease, and tailors healthcare treatments and practices accordingly.. Once we can identify the molecules and other factors that contribute to pre-diabetes, we can customise treatments to suit patients specific make up and needs, Professor James said.. This study demonstrates the power of combining technologies to solve some of the worlds biggest problems, he added.. The burden of the lifestyle diseases the Charles Perkins Centre is dedicated to easing - which include obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease - stubbornly remain at high levels globally; we need to innovate in order to tackle these conditions effectively. ...

What are the symptoms and causes of Diabetes, Prediabetes or Insulin resistance? Can thiese lifestyle diseases and chronic health conditions be reversed?

Of 15,778 individuals with normal blood glucose at the initial health exam, 4,781 went on to develop prediabetes over the study period, and the same abnormalities, although to a milder degree, were present at least 10 years before diagnosis of prediabetes.. The research has important implications given that an estimated 425 million adults (aged 20-79 years) were living with diabetes in 2017, and this is predicted to rise to 629 million by 2045.. Because trials of prevention in people with prediabetes seem to be less successful over long-term follow up, we may need to intervene much earlier than the prediabetes stage to prevent progression to full-blown diabetes, Sagesaka indicates. A much earlier intervention trail, either drug or lifestyle related, is warranted.. Previous research has suggested that risk factors such as obesity and elevated fasting glucose may be present up to 10 years before someone is diagnosed with diabetes.. However, the specific time at which individuals who develop ...

Variables with the highest impact were entered into a multivariate logistic regression model.. ...

Pre-diabetes means you probably have higher than normal blood-sugar levels but, fortunately, not high enough to be classed as being diabetic.. However it does mean that you are susceptible to developing type 2 diabetes and heart disease if you do nothing about it.. Unfortunately, more often than not, there are no physical symptoms to warn you if you are in a pre-diabetes stage. So its worth getting yourself checked out and, if you fall into any of these categories, ask your physician if you are likely to be at risk of pre-diabetes:. * You are overweight and you are aged 45 or older. * Your weight is OK and youre aged 45+. Ask your doctor during a routine check-up if testing is appropriate for you. * You are an adult under age 45 and you are overweight. * You have high blood pressure; low HDL cholesterol and high triglycerides. * Your family has a history of diabetes. * Theres a history of gestational diabetes in your family. * You have given birth to a baby weighing more than 9 pounds. * You ...

Hyperglycaemia in diabetes is either caused by reduced availability of insulin (type 1 diabetes, T1D) or insulinresistance to the cells (type 2 diabetes, T2D). In recent years, the prevalence of T2D has increased to an alarmingproportion, encompassing 95% of the total diabetic burden, probably due to economy-driven changes in lifestyle.Recent epidemiological studies show comorbid depression, anxiety and related mental illness. To explore themolecular mechanisms underlying this comorbid conditions, we used Sprague-Dawley rats on high-fructose dietfor 8 weeks to induce prediabetic condition. Rats with this metabolic syndrome also showed hyper-anxiety when theywere subjected to anxiety-related behavioural assays. Rats were administered with resveratrol, an activator of sirtuins,and metformin, a standard antidiabetic drug, simultaneously with fructose. We observed that resveratrol was moreeffective in protecting from both the metabolic (prediabetic) and affective (anxiety) disorders than ...

Our findings demonstrate that prediabetic patients show a lower phenotypic flexibility after external aggression, such as OFTT compared with nondiabetic patients. The postprandial response increases progressively according to non-diabetic, prediabetic and type 2 diabetic state and it is higher in patients with liver insulin-resistance. To identify this subgroup of patients is important to treat more intensively in order to avoid future cardiometabolic complications (Cardiovascular Diabetology). ...

Again, we can take Jim as an example. His cholesterol particles were all small and dense because he had severe pre-diabetes. This is also not hard to diagnose. Jim was obese at 285 pounds with a BMI (body mass index) of 36. You are considered obese if your BMI is greater than 30. His waist-to-hip ratio was 1.04 (normal is less than 0.9 for men). He had very high insulin and blood sugar levels after we gave him a test drink of glucose (sugar). All this added up to tell us he had severe pre-diabetes or metabolic syndrome. As I mentioned before, he also had high triglycerides and low HDL -- another clue that he had metabolic syndrome. We also found he had very low testosterone and growth hormone, further symptoms of pre-diabetes or metabolic syndrome ...

Prediabetes = impaired fasting glucose (IFG), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), or A1C 6.0% to 6.4% (see Table 4 in Definition, Classification and Diagnosis of Diabetes, Prediabetes and Metabolic Syndrome, p. S8). ‡ In the absence of symptomatic hyperglycemia, if a single laboratory test is in the diabetes range, a repeat confirmatory test (FPG, A1C, 2hPG in a 75 g OGTT) must be done on another day. It is preferable that the same test be repeated (in a timely fashion) for confirmation. If results of 2 different tests are available and both are above the diagnostic cutpoints, the diagnosis of diabetes is confirmed. NA = not available; OGTT = oral glucose tolerance test.. ...

Objective: While the global epidemic of diabetes mellitus in adults is well documented, there are few reliable estimates of the prevalence of diabetes and prediabetes in adolescents in the United States. We conducted systematic hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) screening in a very large adolescent blood donor population.. Methods: A screening program was implemented in which HbA1C was measured at the time of blood donation among 31,546 volunteer high-school blood donors, 16-19 years of age, who participated in school blood drives conducted by Carter BloodCare, the largest independent blood program in Texas, between 2011 and 2013. The main study measures were the prevalence of HbA1C in the prediabetes range, 5.7-6.4% (39-46 mmol/mol) and in the diabetes range, ≥ 6.5% (≥ 48 mmol/mol), in the overall cohort as well as stratified by sex, race/ethnicity, and sociodemographic characteristics.. Results: In the overall cohort, the prevalence of HbA1C in the prediabetes range was 11.0% (95% CI 10.7, 11.4), and ...
