Molecular mechanisms underlying the development of insulin resistance: role of betaine supplementation (IRBETAINE-CIG)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2015,

"Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a growing global epidemic and new prevention and therapeutic strategies are urgently needed. Insulin resistance is present in high-risk individuals years before the onset of T2D, making the characterization of the complex pathophysiology of insulin resistance a key element of future prevention efforts. The overall goal of our project is to identify and characterize novel ...

Suicidality: Treatment Occurring in Paediatrics (STOP)

Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Apr 30, 2015,

The emergence of suicidality in patients receiving drug treatment is of concern because of the overall burden and the possible link with completed suicide. The lack of uniform requirements for defining, detecting and recording suicidality and the presence of disease related confounders create major problems. It is possible that Medication-Related Suicidality (MRS) differs from Psychopathology-Rela ...
