| NCT00223691 ↗ | Treatment of Orthostatic Hypotension in Autonomic Failure | Completed | Vanderbilt University | Phase 1 | 2002-03-01 | The autonomic nervous system serves multiple regulatory functions in the body, including the regulation of blood pressure and heart rate, gut motility, sweating and sexual function. There are several diseases characterized by abnormal function of the autonomic nervous system. Medications can also alter autonomic function. Impairment of the autonomic nervous system by diseases or drugs may lead to several symptoms, including blood pressure problems (e.g., high blood pressure lying down and low blood pressure on standing), sweating abnormalities, constipation or diarrhea and sexual dysfunction. Because treatment options for these patients are limited. We propose to study patients autonomic failure and low blood pressure upon standing and determine the cause of their disease by history and examination and their response to autonomic testing which have already been standardized in our laboratory. Based on their possible cause, we will tests different medications that may alleviate their symptoms. |

| NCT00846521 ↗ | Study of Post-meal Blood Sugar Peaks in Association With Vascular Disease in Childhood Obesity | Terminated | National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) | Phase 4 | 2006-09-01 | The main purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with acarbose attenuates post-prandial glycemic excursions in non-diabetic/pre-diabetic obese children as determined by continuous glucose monitoring systems (CGMS). To this effect the current pilot study involves a 6 week intervention with acarbose given to all subjects with either impaired glucose tolerance or an area under the curve of >130 mg/dl during the screening oral glucose tolerance test. Three consecutive days of CGMS are then compared to before and during the intervention. The secondary objective addressed in this protocol is the collection of baseline measures of endothelial function in obese and lean children. Even though the duration of acarbose treatment may be too short to demonstrate a vascular effect, the pre and post intervention data would serve as preliminary data for anticipated future studies that assess the vascular effect of reduced post-prandial blood glucose levels. |
