Vascular disease can lead to heart attacks, strokes and even amputations. Insulin, a hormone which is secreted by the pancreas, affects not only glucose and fat metabolism but also vascular disease. Impairment of insulin s ability to remove glucose from the circulation is known as insulin resistance. To overcome insulin resistance the pancreas secretes extra insulin. These high levels of insulin affect circulating triglyceride levels by both promoting production of triglyceride by the liver and interfering with clearance of triglyceride from the circulation. Triglyceride in turn contributes to the development of vascular disease by causing both inflammation and hypercoagulability.\n\nSurprisingly African Americans are more insulin resistant and have a higher rate of vascular disease than Caucasians but have lower triglyceride levels. Because of the high rate of vascular diseases in African Americans, our aim is to determine if the adverse effects of triglyceride occur at a lower level in African Americans than Caucasians. To achieve this goal we will determine if there are differences in the effect of a meal on triglyceride levels and vascular function in a representative cohort of African American and Caucasian women.\n\nFor this study we will enroll 96 women (48 African American and 48 Caucasian women). We are recruiting women because ethnic differences in triglyceride are even greater in women than men. We are enrolling women between the ages of 18 and 65 years. The study will involve several outpatient visits to the NIH Clinical Center. The first visit will be a screening to determine eligibility. At the second visit a test to measure insulin resistance will be performed. This test is called a frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test. The third visit will be for the test meal. Before and at 2, 4 and 6 hours after the meal, blood will be drawn and vascular function measured. Vascular function is determined by taking blood pressure and then measuring blood flow in the arm with ultrasound. It is possible that individual differences in diet could affect the results of the vascular study on the day of the test meal. Therefore for 7 days prior to the test meal, the NIH Clinical Center will provide to each participant all their meals in the form of either trays or meals in a box. These meals will be consistent with the typical American diet and be 33% fat, 15% protein and 52% carbohydrate. In designing these meals, the dietician will take into account individual food preferences.\n\nThis study is being performed in collaboration with the Harvard School of Public Health, the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center and Indiana University. Therefore some blood drawn during Visits 2 and 3 will be sent coded, without personal identifiers, to each institution for analyses.\n\n...', 'detailedDescription': 'African Americans have a higher prevalence of vascular disease than Caucasians.

Further they must describe both parents as being African American.\n\nCaucasian Women: Individuals will be considered to be Caucasian if they self-identify as Caucasian.\n\nHealthy Volunteers: The potential enrollee must self identify as a normal volunteer and have this confirmed by having at the screening visit a normal complete blood count, glucose, BUN creatinine, liver and thyroid panel.\n\nAge between 18 and 65 years: This age range is chosen because TG levels across the lifespan from early adulthood through to postmenopausal status. Weare using 65 years of age as a conventional upper limit. In addition, 65 years of age has been used as an age category cut-off by National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys. Our goal is to detect ethnic differences in the pathways that allow vascular disease to develop. Enrolling women between the ages of 18 and 65 years, maximizes our ability to detect differences in mechanism of action that are truly secondary to ethnicity.\n\nWeight less than 136 kg (300 lbs): This weight restriction is necessitated by the limitations of the DXA scanner. The DXA platform cannot accommodate subjects who weigh more than 136 kg.\n\nBMI between 20 and 45 kg/m2: Women in both ethnic groups will be recruited across BMI nonobese and obese categories. Therefore we will enroll approximately equal numbers of women from each ethnic group in both BMI categories BMI between 20 and 30 kg/m(2) and BMI between 30 and 45 kg/m(2).\n\nEXCLUSION CRITERIA:\n\nRefusal to agree to use barrier contraception: The DXA scan and CT scan should not be performed if the participant is pregnant. In addition, TG levels are directly affected by pregnancy. Even though we will perform pregnancy tests within 7 days of each visit, we also require that the subject agree to abstinence or barrier contraception throughout the study.\n\nMedications which affect parameters under investigation: Examples include corticosteroids, oral contraceptives, hypoglycemic (oral or injection), hypolipidemic, antihypertensive and antipsychotic agents. Oral contraceptives, in particular, are exclusion criteria because the estrogen component of oral contraceptives increase TG levels and would therefore obscure the effect of the test meal on TG levels.\n\nMedical Conditions which affect parameters under investigation: Examples include diabetes, thyroid disease, liver disease, pancreatitis, nephrotic syndrome.\n\nHispanics: The relationship between TG and insulin resistance in Hispanic White women is midway between African American and Caucasian women. Therefore in this initial study to be able to determine the maximum ethnic difference in the relationship between TG and insulin resistance, we will enroll in this protocol study women who self-identify as African American and Caucasian and not enroll women who self-identify as Hispanic.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00484861', 'briefTitle': 'Effect of Diet on Vascular Disease in Pre-Menopausal Women', 'organization': {'class': 'NIH', 'fullName': 'National Institutes of Health Clinical Center (CC)'}, 'officialTitle': 'The Effect of Diet on Vascular Disease: A Study of African American and Caucasian Women', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '070163'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': '07-DK-0163'}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '20892', 'city': 'Bethesda', 'state': 'Maryland', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'National Institutes of Health Clinical Center, 9000 Rockville Pike', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 38.98067, 'lon': -77.10026}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Anne E Sumner, M.D.', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK)'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK)', 'class': 'NIH'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
