Seeking participants for a study about how individuals prefer to receive nutrition recommendations to support health management and preferences for visualizing health data. Participants may be invited to complete a 60-minute session to answer questionnaires and evaluate different styles of nutritional recommendations. In addition, they may be invited to…
A future without Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) starts with you. Get screened! Thanks in large part to T1D family members, we understand T1D as a disease that progresses in three distinct stages. This new definition in conjunction with TrialNet's Pathway to Prevention screening, allows for earlier detection and intervention.
The overall goal of this project is to determine whether the timing of your meals and sleep influences health. We are looking for adults aged 30 and older with type 2 diabetes to participate in a sleep study. Participants must be willing to keep a written food and sleep record for 7 consecutive days. Participants who complete this study will receive a total…
The Department of Occupational Therapy at Columbia University will be conducting research to understand the impact of aromatase inhibitors (AIs) on performing everyday activities, like bathing and making meals, for women diagnosed with breast cancer. The purpose of this study is to understand how functional performance is impacted by the use of AIs, and its…
The purpose of this registry is to keep track of people who are undergoing therapy for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and who are having molecular testing known as DCISionRT. A Registry is a databank of people who have something in common. Molecular testing looks at how certain genes are used by your tumor cells. The goal of this Registry is to help…
We are conducting a research study on the effect of high insulin levels on the buildup of excessive liver fat ("fatty liver disease") in people at risk for type 2 diabetes. We are seeking adult volunteers, ages 18-65, who have obesity with a body mass index of 30-45, and have been diagnosed with, or are at risk for, prediabetes and metabolic…
We are conducting a research study on how insulin controls blood sugar in both healthy people and those at risk of type 2 diabetes. We are seeking adult volunteers, aged 18-65, who have body mass indices either in the lean range (18-25 kg/m2) or in the obesity range (30-45 kg/m2) but who do not have prediabetes or diabetes. Participants will undergo a…
In PRECIDENTD, we hope to learn which diabetes medications work best to reduce the risk of heart and kidney disease in people with type 2 diabetes. People with type 2 diabetes are twice as likely to have heart disease or a stroke compared to someone who does not have diabetes, and they are likely to have heart disease or stroke at a younger age. People with…
We are recruiting volunteers, aged 18-70, for a research study on the buildup of excessive liver fat ("fatty liver disease") in people with or at risk for type 2 diabetes because their bodies are resistant to the actions of the blood sugar-lowering hormone, insulin. To do this, we seek to temporarily induce or accentuate insulin resistance in 14…
