AIMS OF STUDY The aim of this study is to investigate whether ingestion of curcumin will prevent hepatic insulin resistance (assessed by homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR)) induced by short-term oral glucocorticoid (prednisolone) administration in overweight and obese

Purpose: The purpose of the study is to investigate the glucose-profile, HRV and sleep disturbances for 30 days after major emergency abdominal surgery using continues measurements with wearable devices. Secondly, the study investigates the association between glucose profile, HRV,

The optimal daily dose of metformin is thought to be 2000 mg, however patients with metformin intolerance cannot reach this target dose. Participate in this study are metformin intolerant. Metformin intolerant patients have been defined as those not able to be treated with the metformin daily dose

After surgical intervention, an insulin resistance condition will occur because of the following stress response. This condition will for the majority of cases results in poor glycemic control - and there will be a risk of hyperglycaemia in the hospitalized patient. This condition affects all cells
