简要总结
Participants will receive prednisone 40 mg for 3 days. 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), insulin and C-peptide will be measured on day 1 (before prednisone) and day 3 (after prednisone). Also capillary glucose values will be obtained during and after the period of prednisone intake.
详细描述
On their scheduled day, participants will be instructed to come to the clinic after an overnight fast of a minimum of 8 hours (subjects can drink water). The participants will be asked to refrain from drinking alcohol for a period of 24 hours before the study days and to not perform strenuous exercise for a period of 48 hours before the study days. The participants will be directed to avoid alcohol and strenuous exercise for the duration of the study.
On days 1 and 3 of the study period, participants will be checked into the clinic. A physical examination, including height, weight and waist circumference, and finger-stick glucose will be performed. A 75-g OGTT will be performed with venous samples for measurement of glucose, insulin and C-peptide levels obtained at 0, 30 and 60 minutes starting immediately after the ingestion of the 75 g glucose solution. After samples are collected on day 1, participants will be administered their first dose of steroid, prednisone 40 mg, and be given a packet of two additional doses for the rest of the study period. The investigators may only give 1 additional dose to them and have the participants take the last dose in clinic on day 3 two hours before the OGTT. Subjects will take prednisone 40 mg once daily for three days to be consumed around 8:00am on days 2 and 3. This dose was chosen as a typical high-dose glucocorticoid regimen. On the third day, the participants will again visit the clinic after an overnight fast of a minimum 8 hours and undergo a physical examination and OGTT just as on day 1.
Participants will be instructed to check pre-prandial (before breakfast, lunch and dinner), and bed time (around 10:00 pm) blood glucose (BG) levels and to record all values for a total of five days (three days while on prednisone and for two days after the second study visit). A member of the study staff will call each participant daily around 7:00 pm to obtain BG values. Compliance with the study protocol will be assessed at this time as well. Any subject not compliant with study medications will be excluded from the study.
