Chromium picolinate (CrPic) supplementation has been suggested to improve glycemia, but there are conflicting reports on efficacy. We sought determine the effect of CrPic insulin sensitivity, glycemic control, and body composition in subjects with type 2 diabetes.Thirty-seven diabetes were evaluated. After baseline, placed a sulfonylurea (glipizide gastrointestinal therapeutic system 5 mg/day) placebo for 3 months. Subjects then randomized double-blind fashion receive either plus (n = 12) or...
Objectives: Administration of eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexanoic acid, omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil, has been associated with improved patient outcomes acute lung injury when studied a commercial enteral formula. However, oil not tested independently injury. We therefore sought to determine whether alone would reduce pulmonary systemic inflammation patients Design: Phase II randomized controlled trial. Setting: Five North American medical centers. Patients: Mechanically ventilated...
Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors are proposed to lower blood glucose in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) by prolonging the activity of circulating incretins, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). Consistent with this mechanism action, DPP-4 improve tolerance after meals increasing insulin reducing glucagon levels plasma. However, also reduce fasting glucose, an unexpected effect because active GIP GLP-1 low postabsorptive state.The...
Abstract A BAC located in the 16q24.3 breast cancer loss of heterozygosity region was previously shown to restore cellular senescence when transferred into tumor cell lines. We have that FBXO31, although just distal this BAC, can induce line MCF-7 and is likely candidate gene. FBXO31 has properties consistent with a suppressor, because ectopic expression two lines inhibited colony growth on plastic proliferation line. In addition, compared relative normal breast, levels were down-regulated...
<i>Background/Aims:</i> Several studies have demonstrated that midlife obesity increases the risk for dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. Moreover, plasma 42-amino-acid amyloid-β (Aβ42) levels appear to correlate with BMI. We recently adipocyte amyloid precursor protein (APP) expression is upregulated in correlates insulin resistance adipose tissue inflammation. In this study, we aimed investigate relation between APP Aβ peptide levels. <i>Methods:</i> conducted a pilot...
Background Isolated mediastinal and/or hilar lymphadenopathy (IMHL) may be caused by benign and malignant disorders or ‘reactive’. Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) has a reported low negative predictive value (NPV) in IMHL, necessitating mediastinoscopy selected patients. The aim of this study was to examine the NPV EBUS-TBNA an IMHL population determine whether clinical variables differentiate between pathological reactive IMHL. Methods Analysis...
Abstract Nasogastric tube (NGT) is often used in stroke patients who are dysphagic (deglutition disorders) or have decreased conscious state. This method of feeding assumed to minimal complications. The aim this study analyze complications associated with NGT and variables mortality. Retrospective analysis 250 acute requiring between 2003 2020. There were (median age 76 (IQR 68–83), 56.4% males, median time 1 day 0–3). Discussion family prior insertion recorded 46 (18.4%). 123 cases (49.2%)...
Although no receptor has yet been identified, changes in circulating levels of the adipokine designated as Omentin have demonstrated obesity and related comorbidities such cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome chronic inflammation.Changes at 1 5 days 6 12 months response to biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch bariatric surgery were evaluated, specifically investigate if preceded gain sensitivity.Pre-operative plasma was not different between men (n = 18)...
Phenylketonuria (PKU) treatment consists of life-long protein restriction and Phe-free medical foods for adequate nutritional intake growth. A relationship between body composition blood phenylalanine (Phe) concentrations in subjects with PKU has been proposed but this not consistently reported.Dietary intake, lean mass (LBM) fat (FM) were measured 30 pediatric compared to age, sex matched controls. The Phe was analyzed within the cohort from clinically collected dried spot...
