The study findings may lead to new strategies for preventing type 2 diabetes. In diabetes, blood sugar is higher than normal and can result in serious medical problems, such as blindness and kidney failure. People with subclinical inflammation-inflammation that does not produce symptoms, such as fever, pain, or skin redness-are at increased risk for diabetes. Although the reasons for this are not completely understood, it is known that subclinical inflammation exacerbates insulin resistance, which is a cause of diabetes. Insulin is a hormone that helps control blood sugar, and when it does not work properly, the condition is known as insulin resistance.\n\nNormal, healthy volunteers between 18 and 45 years old with a body mass index of at least 30 kg/m2 and who have subclinical inflammation (determined by blood tests) may be eligible for this study. Candidates must be non-smokers and must not have an alcohol or drug problem. Candidates will be screened with a medical history and physical examination, electrocardiogram, and blood and urine tests. Participants will maintain a standard diet and undergo tests and procedures during a 14-day inpatient stay at the Phoenix Indian Medical Center.', 'detailedDescription': 'In healthy subjects, low-grade inflammation, as measured by serum levels of cytokines or acute phase proteins, is positively associated with adiposity. Recent studies indicate that chronic low-grade inflammation in non-diabetic individuals may cause decline in insulin sensitivity and increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. It has been proposed that reduction of low-grade inflammation may reduce the risk of development of type 2 diabetes. In agreement with this hypothesis, the class of anti-inflammatory drugs called salicylates (such as aspirin) that influence a specific anti-inflammatory pathway have been found to decrease plasma glucose levels and increase insulin sensitivity in rodents as well as people with type 2 diabetes.\n\nIn the present study, we propose testing whether administration of the anti-inflammatory drug Salsalate improves insulin sensitivity in obese non-diabetic individuals and whether this improvement is related with a decrease in serum markers of inflammation. Subjects will be randomly assigned to two treatment groups: placebo or Salsalate (3g/d). An oral glucose tolerance test and a combined euglycemic/hyperglycemic clamp to assess insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion will be performed before and after seven days of treatment. Results of this study may help to identify novel strategies to prevent type 2 diabetes in high-risk groups.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '45 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': '* INCLUSION CRITERIA:\n\nAge: Greater than 18 and less than 45 years.\n\nNumber: 44 completed studies (22 placebo, 22 Salsalate).\n\nSex: 22 Males and 22 Females.\n\nBMI: Greater than or equal to 30 kg.m(2)\n\nEXCLUSION CRITERIA:\n\n* Age below 18 or above 45 years to minimize the risk of glucose clamp.\n* Diabetes mellitus (as per 75 g OGTT, WHO 1999 criteria)\n* Cardiovascular disease including: abnormal EKG, personal history of coronary heart disease;symptomatic angina pectoris or cardiac insufficiency as defined by NYHA; classification as functional class III or IV.\n* Systolic blood pressure greater than 160mmHG and/or diastolic blood pressure greater than 100 mmHg and/or on antihypertensive therapy or resting heart rate greater than 90 bpm.\n* Hematological disorder, including prolonged prothrombin time (normal range 10.9-12.9 sec) and partial thromboplastin time (24-36 sec) and thrombocytopenia (less than 150,000 mm(3)).\n* Respiratory disease (including influenza, asthma)\n* Allergies (including hay fever)\n* Gastrointestinal (including peptic ulcer), hepatic or renal disease (ALT and AST greater than 3-fold above upper limit of normal range, creatinine greater than 1.3 mg/dl).\n* Alcoholism, alcohol-induced autonomic neuropathy.\n* Any endocrinological disorder, including hypopituitarism/pituitary dysfunctions or lesions, hypo/hyperthyroidism, insulinoma.\n* CNS disease\n* Psychosis or personal history of any psychiatric disorder.\n* Taking medications within one month prior to beginning the study, including medications known to have pharmacological interactions with salicylates or that may affect insulin sensitivity and secretion (including salicylates, COX 1 and COX 2 inhibitors, warfarin, Beta-Blockers, phenothiazines, antidepressants, antiarrhythmic drugs, antimuscarinic drugs).\n* Acute inflammation as assessed by history, physical and laboratory examination (subjects with C-reactive protein 2 standard deviations above the population mean will not be admitted).
