Prevention and Treatment of Diabetes in Adults

Currently, an estimated 3.9 million Malaysians continue to live with diabetes with many more who live with prediabetes. Diabetes was the one of the leading causes of death in the Malaysia and the leading cause for kidney failure, lower-limb amputations, and adult-onset blindness. Heart disease and stroke are two to four times more likely for individuals with diabetes. The use of mHealth or mobile health application can reduce blood sugar among individuals with prediabetes but also prevent a later occurrence of diabetes. In this study, the investigators aim to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of a digital health supported pre-diabetes management program based in an urban community pharmacy setting

Telehealth Diabetes Prevention Intervention for African American Youth

The Telehealth Diabetes Prevention Intervention for the Next Generation of African American Youth (TELE-GEN) pilot study will evaluate the implementation and early efficacy of a telehealth diabetes prevention intervention for African American (AA) children (8- to 11-years) and their parents. Power to Prevent is a lifestyle diabetes prevention intervention from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that is based on the Diabetes Prevention Program and tailored for AA families. To investigators knowledge, this intervention has not been evaluated in a clinical trial with AA families with children at risk for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), nor been delivered via telehealth. Employing an effectiveness-implementation hybrid study design, investigators aim to concurrently (1) conduct a single arm pilot trial to assess the early efficacy of Power to Prevent delivered via telehealth to treat overweight/obesity in AA children and their parent, while (2) evaluating an implementation strategy for the uptake of the intervention by the pediatric weight management clinic at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. The primary outcome will be stabilization or reduction in BMI z-score in children (index participant) and reduction in parent BMI (co-participant). Parents (n=20) will receive the same telehealth diabetes prevention intervention, which will be delivered by a racially concordant, trained Lifestyle Coach using small-group videoconferencing (5 parents per group). Sessions will consist of nutrition and physical activity behavior change strategies (20 min), problem solving and decision-making skills to circumvent barriers to behavioral change (20 min), and family goal setting and action planning (20 min). Child and parent measures will be assessed at baseline, 12-weeks (post-intervention), and 30-weeks (follow-up). The implementation strategy has two targets: (1) the pediatric weight management clinical and clinical care team; and (2) overweight/obese pediatric patients and their overweight/obese parents. The multifaceted implementation plan includes four discrete strategies: (1) creating a new clinical team; (2) changing the service site; (3) intervening with families; and (4) assessing organizational readiness. Preliminary findings will provide data to design a full-scale study that will include a powered pilot randomized controlled trial to test the interventions effectiveness for preventing T2DM, while evaluating a refined implementation protocol.

Serum Pro-Diabetes Inflammation Biomarkers in Patients With Apical Periodontitis.

Inflammation is a common factor of chronic periodontitis and diabetes. However, to date, there is no scientific evidence supporting a causal effect of the inflammation created by apical periodontitis on the onset of insulin resistance and on metabolic derangement in the condition of pre-diabetes or diabetes. A case control study has been designed in order to evaluate serum levels of pro-diabetes inflammation factors in a sample of healthy patients between 25 and 55 years of age, with or without apical periodontitis,before endodontic treatment and at 6 and 12 months post-treatment. The aim of the study is to evaluate any relation between the presence of chronic endodontic lesions and pro-diabetes inflammation factors that can promote the onset of insulin resistance, and whether endodontic treatment can reduce these factors, thus preventing a pro-diabetes/diabetes status.

Personalizing Sleep Interventions to Prevent Type 2 Diabetes in Community Dwelling Adults With Pre-Diabetes

This study will use continuous glucose monitoring and actigraphy to examine whether a personalized, daily sleep extension intervention improves glucose regulation for community dwelling, sleep-restricted adults with pre-diabetes. The randomized controlled trial will include 150 adults with pre-diabetes. Sleep extension and habitual sleep groups will complete daily sleep diaries and participate in a weekly 15-minute telephone call or videoconference meeting with a member of the study team (8 sessions total). Data collection will be at 2 time points: pre-randomization and post-intervention (completion of the 8-week intervention). Changes in the percent time glucose is ? 140mg/dL at baseline and post-intervention will be established and compared across the sleep extension and habitual sleep arms.

Development of an Adaptive Treatment for Weight Loss in People With Prediabetes

This 16-week study will use an experimental approach called the Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial to help determine which combination and sequence of weight loss program features are most effective in people who are at risk for type 2 diabetes. Participants in the study will be initially randomized to consume either a high or reduced carbohydrate diet. After 4 weeks, participants will be identified as Responders (6% weight loss) or Non-Responders (<6% weight loss). Responders will continue with their initial randomized group for the remainder of the trial. Non-responders will be re-randomized to 2nd stage interventions of either including additional exercise counseling and training or beginning a time restricted eating protocol for the remainder of the trial.

The Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System in Adiposity, Blood Pressure and Glucose in African Americans

The primary objective is to examine the impact of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) blockade with medications (valsartan) or RAAS and neprilysin inhibition (valsartan/sacubitril) vs. placebo on changes in blood sugar and insulin secretion from the pancreas over 26 weeks assessed with glucose clamp studies among African Americans (AAs) with impaired glucose tolerance. The investigators hypothesize that combined RAAS/neprilysin inhibition will lead to greater improvement in insulin release from the pancreas and improved blood sugar compared to RAAS inhibition alone among AAs with impaired glucose tolerance.
