Multicenter clinical research study aimed at discovering whether modest weight loss through dietary changes and increased physical activity or treatment with the oral diabetes drug metformin (Glucophage) could prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes in study participants. At the beginning of the DPP, all 3,234 study participants were overweight and had blood glucose levels higher than normal but not high enough for a diagnosis of diabetesa condition called prediabetes. In addition, 45 percent of the participants were from minority groups-African American, Alaska Native, American Indian, Asian American, Hispanic/Latino, or Pacific Islander-at increased risk of developing diabetes. The DPP found that participants who lost a modest amount of weight through dietary changes and increased physical activity sharply reduced their chances of developing diabetes. Taking metformin also reduced risk, although less dramatically. In the DPP, participants from 27 clinical centers around the United States were randomly divided into different treatment groups. The first group, called the lifestyle intervention group, received intensive training in diet, physical activity, and behavior modification. By eating less fat and fewer calories and exercising for a total of 150 minutes a week, they aimed to lose 7 percent of their body weight and maintain that loss. The second group took 850 mg of metformin twice a day. The third group received placebo pills instead of metformin. The metformin and placebo groups also received information about diet and exercise but no intensive motivational counseling. A fourth group was treated with the drug troglitazone (Rezulin), but this part of the study was discontinued after researchers discovered that troglitazone can cause serious liver damage. The participants in this group were followed but not included as one of the intervention groups. In the years since the DPP was completed, further analyses of DPP data continue to yield important insights into the value of lifestyle changes in helping people prevent type 2 diabetes and associated conditions. For example, one analysis confirmed that DPP participants carrying two copies of a gene variant, or mutation, that significantly increased their risk of developing diabetes benefited from lifestyle changes as much as or more than those without the gene variant. Another analysis found that weight loss was the main predictor of reduced risk for developing diabetes in DPP lifestyle intervention group participants. The authors concluded that diabetes risk reduction efforts should focus on weight loss, which is helped by increased exercise.

Service that partners with the community to expose and simultaneously drill down into individual databases and data sets and return relevant content. This type of content, part of the so called hidden Web, is typically not indexed by existing web search engines. Every record links back to the originating site. In order for NIF to directly query these independently maintained databases and datasets, database providers must register their database or dataset with the NIF Data Federation and specify permissions. Databases are concept mapped for ease of sharing and to allow better understanding of the results. Learn more about registering your resource, http://neuinfo.org/nif_components/disco/interoperation.shtm Search results are displayed under the Data Federation tab and are categorized by data type and nervous system level. In this way, users can easily step through the content of multiple resources, all from the same interface. Each federated resource individually displays their query results with links back to the relevant datasets within the host resource. This allows users to take advantage of additional views on the data and tools that are available through the host database. The NIF site provides tutorials for each resource, indicated by the Professor Icon professor icon showing users how to navigate the results page once directed there through the NIF. Additionally, query results may be exported as an Excel document. Note: NIF is not responsible for the availability or content of these external sites, nor does NIF endorse, warrant or guarantee the products, services or information described or offered at these external sites. Integrated Databases: Theses virtual databases created by NIF and other partners combine related data indexed from multiple databases and combine them into one view for easier browsing. * Integrated Animal View * Integrated Brain Gene Expression View * Integrated Disease View * Integrated Nervous System Connectivity View * Integrated Podcasts View * Integrated Software View * Integrated Video View * Integrated Jobs * Integrated Blogs For a listing of the Federated Databases see, http://neuinfo.org/mynif/databaseList.php or refer to the Resources Listed by NIF Data Federation table below.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 11, 2023. The Specimen Resource Locator is a database to help researchers locate human specimens (tissue, serum, DNA/RNA, other specimens) for cancer research. It includes tissue banks and tissue procurement systems with access to normal, benign, precancerous and cancerous human tissue from a variety of organs. Researchers specify the types of specimens, number of cases, preservation methods and associated data they require. The Locator will then search the database and return a list of tissue resources most likely to meet their requirements. When no match is obtained, the researcher is referred to the NCI Tissue Expediter ([email protected]). The Tissue expediter is a scientist who can help researchers identify appropriate resources and/or appropriate collaborators.
