Filter by:Calcification of the coronary arteries is a direct sign of atherosclerotic disease of the coronary arteries and has been shown to be a strong predictor of the risk of cardiovascular diseases, including myocardial infarction and/or cardiac death, especially in patients with Diabetes Mellitus type 2. Therefore, there is great interest in pharmacotherapies that improve the rates of cardiovascular complications, and modify the outcomes of this group of patients. Large randomized controlled trials with SGLT2 inhibitors in patients with DM2 have shown a clear reduction in cardiovascular events among individuals with atherosclerotic disease. Atherosclerosis imaging allows measurable assessments of disease progression and activity, revealing early signs of potential drug effects. Noninvasive methods are preferred for serial imaging in drug trials due to the potential risks associated with invasive procedures. The coronary artery calcium quantification using the Agatston score is the most widely used method
Nordic Walking (NW) is a biomechanically correct walking technique that originated in Finland in the 1930s as an off-season training method for cross-country skiers. In the NW, the use of special sticks is combined with "conventional" walking: this involves a greater caloric expenditure, with an energy consumption higher by 20-30% compared to walking without sticks, and also toning of the upper part of the body, in particular triceps, shoulders and back, and the involvement of about 90% of the body's muscles, while maintaining a reduced load on ligaments and joints (Baek & Ha, 2021). The NW acts simultaneously and effectively on different components of fitness: coordination, endurance, strength, and mobility. It does not require sudden accelerations and is based on a technique that is easy to learn (with the help of an instructor), especially as regards maintaining correct posture. Finally, in addition to the cardiovascular benefits, NW has also been shown to effectively reduce the risk of falls in the elderly. The study is a single-center, randomized controlled trial (RCT), with a three-parallel-arm design, open-label. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy (in terms of cardiovascular performance), safety, and adherence (in terms of dropout rate) to the exercise prescription after 6 and 12 months follow-up of a 3-month NW intervention compared with standard rehabilitation training (SR, 3 months) in obese/overweight diabetic patients with cardiovascular (CV) complications. The study will enroll in parallel a control group that can access only generic cardiological counseling with a prescription for unsupervised home exercise.
The proposed project mainly aims to investigate the microbial processes leading to dietary metabolites production, independently of long-term microbiota adaptation to the diet, by measuring the microbiota-derived metabolite production from a meal sequence rich in saturated fatty acids (SFA) or the same meals but rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) in individuals with or without obesity and Type 2 diabetes (T2D)
It is essential to manage the disease to prevent and reduce complications and mortality in patients with diabetes. Adequate information and options should be provided to patients by healthcare providers so that patients can make informed choices. Patient education is a patient empowerment process designed to enable patients to be responsible for their health. With this study, it is considered essential to educate diabetic patients according to the theory of planned behavior and to develop self-efficacy by contributing to patient empowerment in this way.
The study will be conducted in the following population: obese patients with normal glucose tolerance (HbA1c ≤ 5.6%, n=12), pre-sugar patients (5.7% ≤ HbA1c ≤ 6.4%, n=18) and patients with T2DM (HbA1c ≥ 6.4% , n=18). After recruiting, they were followed up at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively, and their preoperative and follow-up examination values related to demographics, body composition, blood biochemistry, and glucose metabolic balance, as well as quantitative MRI imaging and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) will be collected. An interim analysis will be performed at 6 months postoperatively and overall analysis will be performed at 12 months postoperatively by descriptive statistics and ANOVA methods to explore the effect of adiposity on the progression of diabetes mellitus and insulin secretory function.
The investigators hypothesize that weight loss obtained with the French RNPC weight reduction program is beneficial for the general health of overweight/obese patients in the medium term. The objective of this cohort study is to demonstrate the effectiveness of the RNPC program on the reduction of drug or instrumental treatments (for example, continuous positive pressure ventilation for the treatment of sleep apnea syndrome) and the improvement of overweight/obesity-associated comorbidities in the medium term. This is a multicenter clinical study, as part of routine care, with standardized nutritional care (RNPC Program) in all RNPC centers in France. A cohort will be formed based on the clinical and biological data usually collected in the centers, enriched by data from additional clinical and biological examinations as well as by self-questionnaires completed by the participants. About 10,000 overweight or obese participants will be included for 2 years and followed 5 years. The SCOOP-RNPC study will have benefits for individual participants, for the scientific community in terms of knowledge acquired and for society with a better definition of the impact of treatments. Responding to the major public health issue represented by overweight, this prospective cohort of overweight or obese patients will make it possible to evaluate, in real-life conditions, the effects of weight loss obtained by the RNPC Program in the short, medium and long term on biological parameters predictive of cardiometabolic risk, drug consumption, quality of life, diet and eating behavior, sleep, physical activity, stress/anxiety, as well as depression. This cohort will make it possible to identify clinical phenotypes and biomarkers to optimize the personalization of the management of overweight or obese patients, in particular those at risk of developing comorbidities associated with excess weight.
The goal of this [clinical trial] is to [ compare ] in [ diabetic male patients ]. The main question to answer is : Will be any difference between aerobic exercises and resistance exercises in improving levels of homocysteine, cholesterol and insulin in diabetic patients? Participants will take their medications and group of them do aerobic exercises and another group do resistance training
Diabetes is a serious and chronic disease that affects more than 347 million people in the world. It is the leading cause of death by age and its prevalence is increasing annually throughout the world. Diabetes is a disorder that manifests itself with elevated blood glucose levels that may be the resultof a deficiency in insulin secretion or action, or a combination of both problems. The "Diabetic foot" includes a number of syndromes in which the interaction of the loss of protective sensation by the presence of sensory neuropathy, the change in pressure points due to motor neuropathy, autonomic dysfunction and decreased Blood flow due to peripheral vascular disease can lead to the appearance of injuries or ulcers induced by minor traumas that go "unnoticed." This situation leads to significant morbidity and a high risk of amputation. It can be prevented with the application of prevention programs, based on the early detection of neuropathy, assessment of associated risk factors, along with the application of a structured program of education and treatment of risk factors. PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: 1- Comparison of ulceration rates, decrease in amputation rates in the target population with intervention: LSCI, thermography and creation of personalized insoles versus the control group with assessment, treatment and follow-up, without the intervention of interest in the study. 2- Correlation between changes in perfusion and temperature detected in combination of LSCI and thermography to predict diabetic foot ulcers and the risk of having ulcers. Study Model: Parallel Assignment 1:1 . Patients with inclusion criteria and without exclusion criteria will be randomized into two groups with Randomization with sequence concealment, centralized in computer support. OxMaR (Oxford Minimization and Randomization) After signing the informed consent, the patients will be divided into two groups. Number of Arms 2 Masking: None (Open Label) A-GROUP WITH LSCI, 3D FOOT CREATOR FOLLOW UP B- GROUP WITHOUT LSCI, 3D FOOT CREATOR FOLLOW UP.
The purpose of this study is to determine if a novel smartphone-based medication adherence platform accompanied by directed pharmacist intervention can improve A1c control and medication compliance in non-insulin dependent diabetics.
This randomized controlled trial (RCT) will determine if access to a voucher for healthy foods reduces blood sugar levels among people living on a low income who have type 2 diabetes or elevated blood sugar.
