1. A Study to Test How Muscle Tissue Differs Between People

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to look for ways to test how muscle tissue differs between people.

2. Insulin Regulation of Lipolysis and Lipolysis Proteins

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine whether impaired insulin-induced suppression of lipolysis (as measured by IC50) is related to lipolysis proteins in groups of volunteers known to vary widely with regards to abdominal adipocyte size and regulation of adipose tissue lipolysis, and whether the improved insulin regulation of lipolysis resulting from treatment with the PPARγ agonist pioglitazone, with or without weight loss, can be linked to specific changes in sets of PPARγ-responsive adipocyte lipolysis proteins in UBO adults.
   
   
   
    

    

    

    

    

3. A Study to Evaluate the Impact of Nutrition Education and Access to Nutritious Foods on Diabetes Control

   Mankato, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether or not a 6 month supply (1 meal//day) of healthy food choices readily available in the patient's home and self management training including understanding of how foods impact diabetes, improved food choices and how to prepare those foods, improve glucose control.  In addition, it will evaluate whether or not there will be lasting behavior change modification after the program.

4. A Study to Evaluate the Effects of Ondansetron on Gastrointestinal Sensorimotor Dysfunctions in Diabetes Mellitus and Dyspepsia

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to understand why patients with indigestion, with or without diabetes, have gastrointestinal symptoms and, in particular, to understand where the symptoms are related to increased sensitivity to nutrients.Subsequently, look at the effects of Ondansetron on these patients' symptoms.

5. A Study to Establish an Obesity-Related Phenotype Registry

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to create a registry of obese patients who have been phenotyped to understand the heterogeneity of obesity.

6. Recovery from Cushing syndrome and Mild Autonomous Cortisol Secretion

   Rochester, Minn.

   The primary purpose of this study is to determine pre-surgical and post-surgical predictors of the duration and severity of glucocorticoid withdrawal in patients undergoing a curative surgery for cortisol excess.

7. Testing Lutetium Lu 177 Dotatate in Patients With Somatostatin Receptor Positive Advanced Bronchial Neuroendocrine Tumors

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this trial is to study the effect of lutetium Lu 177 dotatate compared to the usual treatment (everolimus) in treating patients with somatostatin receptor positive bronchial neuroendocrine tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced). Radioactive drugs, such as lutetium Lu 177 dotatate, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and may reduce harm to normal cells. Lutetium Lu 177 dotatate may be more effective than everolimus in shrinking or stabilizing advanced bronchial neuroendocrine tumors.

8. The Development and Testing of a Shared Decision Making Encounter Tool for Weight Management Decisions

   Rochester, Minn., Jacksonville, Fla.

   The aim of this study is to develop, in close collaboration with stakeholders, an evidence-based decision aid to inform discussions regarding the treatment of obesity (Obesity Choice).

9. Effect of Agent Orange Exposure on Endocrine Tumor Aggressiveness

   Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The intent is to collect relevant clinical data on patients exposed to Agent Orange plus assessment of the tissue for genetic mutations known to be associated with growth of thyroid cancer and pituitary tumors and report our findings as a descriptive case series.

10. A Study to Examine the Molecular Mechanisms of Acute Effects of Resistance Exercise

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to seek and identify the mechanistic underpinnings of the effects of resistance exercise (RE) on insulin sensitivity.
