To determine whether glucose, lipid and protein metabolism can be accurately measured using stable isotopes in the same patient on two occasions in a 48 hour interval.
To study the role of central insulin on glucose metabolism.
1) To assess insulin sensitivity and response in critically ill septic neonates and children. 2) To determine protein balance in septic, critically ill children at baseline and during a Hyperinsulinemic Euglycemic Clamp, while receiving standard or…
The main objective of this study is to investigate the effects of a glucagon challenge on hepatic glucose production, abdominal subcutaneous glucose levels in type 2 diabetes patients with and without oral antidiabetics. In addition, endothelial…
Evaluate the outcomes of a relatively brief but intensive IV insulin therapy compared to conventional therapy in patients admitted for ACS and observe different biomarker washout patterns these treatment groups.Furthermore we wish to determine…
To study the protective effect of pre-treatment with metformin on flow mediated dilation after 20 minutes ischemia and 20 minutes reperfusion. If metformin treatment indeed limits endothelial IR-injury, a second study will be performed in the same…
To study whether pretreatment with metformin can reduce myocardial injury during CABG surgery in patients without diabetes mellitus.
To study whether dipyridamole reduces gastrointestinal absorption of metformin.
To assess the efficacy of combined treatment with sorafenib and metformin.
- To study the response of active glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP1), Glucagon, Insulin, C-peptide and growth hormone (GH) and liver gluconeogenesis to a glucagon challenge in healthy volunteers- To study the expression of glucagon receptor mRNA in the…
To study the effect of intensive blood glucose control intraoperatively and 24 hours postoperatively on the occurrence of cardiovascular complications and death from all causes at 30 days and at 1 year after non-cardiac surgery in diabetics.
To examine the safety, tolerability, and effect on glucose metabolism of metformin treatment in non-diabetic patients with TIA or minor ischemic stroke and impaired glucose tolerance.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of the addition of SYR-322 (25 mg) to subjects who are inadequately controlled on pioglitazone HCl (30 mg) and metformin (*1500 mg or MTD).
Treatment of overweight persons with insulinresistance with a low dose metformin added to yoghurt. The early reduction of glucose, especially the postprandial glucose will hopefully slow the process from insuline resistance to diabetes mellitus.…
treatment of overweight persons with insulinresistance with a low dose metformine add to yoghurt The early reduce of glucose especially the postprandial will hopefully decrease this process. This reduce of the glucose only needs to be 1 mmol and we…
The primary objective of the METFORMIN study is to determine the efficacy of metformin in combination with lifestyle-intervention in obese children and adolescents with insulin resistance versus placebo with lifestyle-intervention. The secondary…
The primary objective of the phase I part of the study is to determine the recommended phase II dose of metformin in combination with carboplatin/paclitaxel chemotherapy in patients with advanced ovarian cancer. The secondary objectives the phase I…
