Patients with type II diabetes are at high risk of developing cardiovascular diseases due to increased blood sugar, inflammation, insulin resistance, and physical inactivity. The effectiveness of exercises in improving cardiopulmonary fitness have not been well documented and practiced in Pakistan. The objective of this study is to determine the comparative effects of Periodized circuit and strength training in improving cardiovascular fitness, pulmonary functions , quality of life and glycemic control in type II diabetes patients. The study will be a randomized clinical trial. Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria participants will be divided into 2 groups, Group A and Group B. The study will be 6 weeks, 3 sessions per week (18 sessions). Group A will be asked to perform Periodized circuit training 45 min per session (20 min aerobic exercise with 10 min warm up and cool down) with moderate intensity, 10min break and 15 min of resistance exercise while Group B will follow Conventional strength training 45 min per session, 35 min of strength and endurance training with 10 min of warm up and cool down. The study outcomes measures will be pulmonary functions (FEV1. FVC, FEV1/FVC ratio) through digital spirometer quality of life through health-related quality of life (HRQOL) questionnaire , cardiopulmonary fitness ( heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation through 6MWT) and Glycemic control through (BCM). The data will be assessed at baseline, daily after the interventions and end of the study. Data will be analyzed using IBM SPSS software version 23. Key words: CT (Circuit training), CF (Cardiovascular fitness), PF (Pulmonary function), CST (Conventional strength training), CVD (cardiovascular disease), T2D (Type 2 diabetes), BCM (Blood Glucose Monitor)

The Decision-Making Education for Choices in Diabetes Every Day (DECIDE) program (copyrighted) was created by Dr. Felicia Hill-Briggs and is used by permission for the purpose of this pilot study. This problem-solving curriculum is used to help manage everyday problems when living with diabetes. The purpose of this project is to complete an in-depth review of the Decision-Making Education for Choices in Diabetes Every Day (DECIDE) curriculum, which is delivered in a group face-to-face setting. Using a task analysis process, the investigators will use the findings from the review to develop a web-site version that will be called eDECIDE for use with a community group in Kansas. Phase 3: will be a pilot clinical trial (2 Arm Study) which examines the use of the eDECIDE curriculum compared to the traditional DECIDE curriculum delivered to participants individually.

Background: \- LIFE-Moms (Lifestyle Interventions for Expectant Moms) is a national project that is studying pregnant women who are overweight or obese. It is looking at ways they can manage their weight gain in pregnancy and how this may affect them and their babies health at birth and through the first year. Researchers want to recruit pregnant women who are being treated at the Phoenix Indian Medical Center. They will participate in a two-part study. Objectives: \- To study pregnant women who are in the LIFE-Moms project at the Phoenix Indian Medical Center. Eligibility: * Pregnant women at least 18 years of age who are overweight or obese. * Participants must be receiving care at the Phoenix Indian Medical Center. * Participants must be having only one child in their pregnancy (no twins or other multiple births). Design: * This study will have two parts. The first part will have three visits to obtain data about health early in pregnancy. It will also let participants and researchers find out if the participants are eligible and should continue in the second part of the study. In the second part, participants will be monitored throughout their pregnancy and during the first year after the baby s birth to test the effects of a lifestyle intervention to control weight gain during pregnancy. * On the Part 1 study visits, participants will have a physical exam and medical history. They will provide blood, urine, hair, and other samples to be examined for possible genetic conditions. * For the Part 2 study visits, participants will be placed in one of two treatment groups. Each group will receive the same prenatal and postnatal care that they would get if they did not join the study. * The first group will have a lifestyle intervention program. They will spend about 2 hours every week with other members of their group to learn diet and activity behaviors that may help with their health. * The second group will have an enhanced care program. They will be given additional information about health and pregnancy and be invited to attend three classes to learn about staying healthy during pregnancy.

This study is open to adults who are at least 18 years old and have a body mass index of 27 kg/m² or more. People can take part if they have type 2 diabetes and if they are currently being treated only with diet and exercise or with specific diabetes medications. Only people who have previously not managed to lose weight by changing their diet can participate. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called survodutide (BI 456906) helps people living with overweight or obesity who also have diabetes to lose weight. Participants are divided into 3 groups by chance, like drawing names from a hat. 2 groups get different doses of survodutide and 1 group gets placebo. Placebo looks like survodutide but does not contain any medicine. Every participant has a 2 in 3 chance of getting survodutide. Participants inject survodutide or placebo under their skin once a week for about one and a half years. In addition to the study medicine, all participants receive counselling to make changes to their diet and to exercise regularly. Participants are in the study for about 1 year and 7 months. During this time, it is planned that participants visit the study site up to 14 times and receive 6 phone calls by the site staff. The doctors check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects. The study staff also regularly measure participants' body weight. The results are compared between the groups to see whether the treatment works.

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) plays a crucial role in cardiovascular regulation by modulating heart rate in response to endogenous and environmental stimuli. Heart rate variability (HRV) analysis has been widely used as a non-invasive tool to assess autonomic function and the balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic activity. Although the physiological interpretation of some HRV parameters remains debated-particularly the low-frequency (LF) spectral component as an index of sympathetic activation-HRV remains an important method for evaluating autonomic cardiovascular control. Reduced HRV has been associated with adverse outcomes in several pathological conditions and physiologically declines with aging, mainly due to progressive neuronal loss at central and spinal levels. Among conditions characterized by autonomic dysfunction, cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) represents a common complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) and metabolic syndrome. CAN, defined as impairment of autonomic control of the cardiovascular system, develops early in the disease course and is associated with increased mortality and a higher risk of cardiovascular and renal complications. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), initially developed as glucose-lowering agents, have demonstrated significant cardiovascular and renal protective effects beyond glycemic control. Growing evidence suggests that these drugs exert sympathoinhibitory effects that may be beneficial not only in diabetic patients but also in conditions characterized by sympathetic overactivity. Preclinical and clinical studies have shown that SGLT2i influence autonomic regulation, including sympathetic control of renal function, with reported improvements in 24-hour blood pressure regulation and HRV parameters. Large randomized trials have further confirmed the cardioprotective effects of SGLT2i therapy. Studies such as EMBODY, EMPEROR-Reduced, and EMPEROR-Preserved have demonstrated improvements in HRV indices and significant reductions in cardiovascular death and hospitalization for heart failure, irrespective of diabetic status. Despite these findings, the mechanisms underlying these benefits remain incompletely understood. While reduced sympathetic activity has been proposed as a key mechanism, emerging evidence suggests that SGLT2i may also enhance vagal modulation. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate, in a larger population, the effects of SGLT2i therapy on sympathovagal balance using both spectral HRV parameters and additional indices, including the parasympathetic nervous system index (PNSi), sympathetic nervous system index (SNSi), and the Baevsky Stress Index.

In recent years, the global rise in obesity and type 2 diabetes has become a major public health issue. In New Caledonia, 38% of the adult population has a body mass index ≥30. At the same time, the prevalence of type 2 diabetes continues to rise steadily. The burden of these diseases does not affect communities uniformly. While known factors such as diet, physical activity, and socioeconomic conditions play a role, studies have demonstrated the involvement of the gut microbiota in the development of metabolic disorders, particularly obesity and insulin resistance. However, this area remains largely unexplored in New Caledonia and the Pacific.

NCT06959901
Hispanic adolescents in the U.S. are disproportionately burdened by type 2 diabetes (T2D) compared to non-Hispanic white youth (0.079% vs. 0.017%) contributing to higher rates of T2D-related vascular complications, cardiovascular disease, and mortality, among this population. Disparities in T2D are driven in part by independent, modifiable risk factors including low levels of physical activity, sleep, and poor diet. Lifestyle interventions are the cornerstone for maintaining glucose control and managing T2D. However, few studies have developed and tested lifestyle interventions for Hispanic youth with T2D. Digital health interventions that promote healthy lifestyle behaviors like physical activity, sleep, and diet, have demonstrated effectiveness among adults. Studies that use health-based smartphone applications have demonstrated preliminary efficacy for improving health-related lifestyle behaviors as these digital tools leverage behavior change techniques (e.g. self-monitoring, goal-setting, feedback) that have proven effective. Use of digital technology allows for the continuous delivery of intervention content into the home environment extending the reach of clinical care while engaging youth in a format that is age-appropriate given that today's youth are digital frontrunners. Unfortunately, while the use of digital health interventions have increased, few studies have focused on adolescents with overweight and obesity who are at high risk for T2D. The purpose of this study is to 1) develop a mobile health platform for remote and continuous monitoring of activity, sleep, and nutrition and 2) conduct a pilot study (30 days) to evaluate the efficacy of a novel digital health platform in improving obesity-related health outcomes outcomes in Hispanic adolescents (12-18 years; N=30) population.

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 suggests that the brains of some people with diabetes do not respond normally to insulin signals, a condition known as brain insulin resistance (BIR). To date, there have been no large clinical studies investigating BIR and its impact on brain health, but several smaller studies suggest that BIR may be a cause of cognitive decline and impaired brain health in people with diabetes. Another mechanism that may contribute to impaired brain health in people with diabetes is damage to the blood vessels in the brain. Damage to blood vessels is a well-known complication of diabetes, but how it affects the brain is not fully described. In this project, we will investigate the relationship between BIR and brain blood vessel dysfunction and its relationship to cognition and brain function. This is done by examining patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D), type 2 diabetes (T2D) and healthy controls. The participants will undergo MRI brain scans to assess the impact of BIR on the brain physiology and to evaluate brain blood vessel health. Participants will undergo comprehensive assessments of their cognitive abilities and thorough health examination.
NCT05912647
