The goal of this project is to test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of an adolescent-mediated intervention designed to improve the glycemic control and self-care practices of a parent/grandparent. The preliminary impact of the intervention on adult glycemic control (HbA1c) and self-care behaviors, as well as adolescent risk factors, will be explored with the goal of informing future programs that can be scaled to reduce diabetes burden and eliminate health disparities among at risk, ethnic minority groups.
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus is one of the common risk factors of pregnancy and occurs for the first time during pregnancy. It adversely affects maternal and fetal health and causes an increase in morbidity and mortality rates. In this context, it is very important to identify possible risks for GDM, plan, implement and evaluate initiatives, provide emergency crisis management in a short time without damage, and increase the self-confidence of midwives. In recent years, interest in simulation methods and skill acquisition training in midwifery education has increased. Research; In the management of GDM, to increase the satisfaction and self-confidence level of midwifery students in learning, to evaluate the simulation design and educational effectiveness, it was planned to use the scenario-based near-realistic simulation method in the form of randomized control-intervention quantitatively, and in qualitative design to evaluate the students' views on the method and educational effectiveness. The research will make it easier for midwifery students to intervene with the patient in a shorter time, with confidence and with sufficient clinical skills, and patient safety will be increased. In addition, it will allow the reduction of erroneous clinical practices and malpractices. This study aims to evaluate the satisfaction and self-confidence status of midwifery students and the educational effectiveness of the scenario-based simulation method with high closeness to reality in GDM management and to examine the opinions about this method to fill the gap in the literature.
ECLIPSE will evaluate the clinical and economic value of OneTouch Solutions in a real world study design. OneTouch Solutions describes a selection of devices and health and wellness solutions that people with diabetes (PWDs) can access online via OneTouch Solutions (Cecelia Health, Fitbit, Noom or Welldoc, each in combination with OneTouch Verio Reflect® blood glucose meter and the OneTouch Reveal® mobile app (or Welldoc app for the Welldoc arm)). ECLIPSE is a large parallel arm digital health study combining advanced blood glucose monitoring solutions with a choice of four different health and wellness applications or services. There are four unique study arms that will run in parallel over one year. The primary (A1c) endpoint for each study arm will be after 6 months and subjects will continue to use the interventions for a full year to generate data on sustained engagement with these products and services, and to collect healthcare utilization and health insurance claims information. Each study arm will differ to some degree in terms of patient baseline demographics (since subjects self-select their own app/intervention) and the experience per arm will be unique, and therefore each study arm will be analysed separately in terms of endpoints and outcomes.
Background: The disease burden of hypertension(HTN) and type 2 diabetes mellitus(DM) is rising rapidly in China.Comprehensive interventions(Implementation strategies for providers and interventions for patients) are critical to strengthen primary health care systems and address the burden of multiple comorbidities. In order to promote equal access to health services and narrow the gap in population health, China has launched the national Essential Public Health Services Equity Programme (EPHSEP) nationwide. EPHSEP contains guidelines for health management services for HTN and type 2 DM. The program has been in operation for 10 years. However, the management of HTN and type 2 DM in China is far from satisfactory. The purpose of this study is to understand current control and management situation of HTN and type 2 DM, investigate the barriers and facilitators in the implementation of HTN and type 2 DM service delivery standards, propose feasible implementation strategies,implement in certain areas,and to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions and the performance and impact of implementation strategies. Methods: Based on previous work,four community health service centres and four township health centres will be selected in West Coast District of Qingdao city of Shandong province,Suzhou City of Jiangsu province, Changsha city of Hunan province and Luohe city of Henan Province.In each of the four provinces,one community health service center and one township health center will be selected.Two community health service centres and two township health centres will be selected as the intervention groups, and the other community health service centres and township health centres will be selected as the control groups. The study will be divided into three phases: Phase 1, 2 and 3. Phase 1 and phase 2 cross-sectional studies are the basis for phase 3 intervention studies. Phase 1 will be conducted from March 2022 to April 2022.In phase 1, a quantitative questionnaire survey will be conducted among 5464 HTN and 7040 type 2 DM patients in 8 community health service centers to obtain the data of awareness rate, screening rate, diagnosis rate, treatment rate, control rate and management service of hypertension and type 2 diabetes patients,so as to understand current control and management situation of HTN and type 2 DM. Phase 2 will be conducted in April 2022. In phase 2, about 64 medical staff and related managers providing HTN and type 2 DM health management services and 80 patients with HTN and type 2 DM in 8 community health service centers will be investigated through qualitative interviews,so as to investigate the barriers and facilitators in the implementation of HTN and type 2 DM service delivery standards and to propose feasible implementation strategies. Phase 3 will be conducted a mixed-methods type 2 hybrid effectiveness-implementation study from May 2022 to January 2023. Interventions are divided into four levels through a cascading model of screening, diagnosis, treatment, and control. Implementation strategies are divided into 6 categories according to Implementation Mapping: Capacity-building strategies（Recruit, designate, and train for leadership; Work with educational institutions), Supervision(Provide clinical supervision), Integration strategies(Remind clinicians; Use data warehousing techniques), Implementation process Strategies(Identify and prepare champions; Identify early adopters; Inform local opinion leaders; Involve patients/consumers and family members; Obtain and use patients/consumers and family feedback), Dissemination strategies(Make training dynamic), Scale-up strategies(Use train-the-trainer strategies;Place innovation on fee for service lists/formularies). We will adopt between site design to select 4（2*2 ）community health service centers and 4（2*2）township health centers, among which 2 community health service centers and 2 township health centers will implement the strategy, while the other selected sites will not implement the strategy. The 2*2 community health service centers and 2*2 township health centers will be divided into group matching control and self pre- and post-control. In phase 3, 2280 patients with HTN and 2656 patients with type 2 DM will be surveyed by quantitative questionnaire, and about 64 medical staff and related managers providing HTN and type 2 DM health management services will be surveyed by qualitative interview. This is to implement improved implementation strategies and to assess the effectiveness of interventions and the performance and impact of implementation strategies.
This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial investigating the effect of 4 weeks bi-daily dosing of XEN-D0501 on blood glucose reduction as add-on to metformin in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 where life style changes and treatment with metformin has failed to effectively reduce blood glucose concentrations.
This study will compare the new medicine IcoSema, which is a combination of insulin icodec and semaglutide, taken once a week, to insulin icodec taken once a week in people with type 2 diabetes. The study will look at how well IcoSema controls blood sugar level in people with type 2 diabetes compared to insulin icodec. Participants will either get IcoSema or insulin icodec. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. IcoSema and insulin icodec are both new medicines that doctors cannot prescribe. Participants will get IcoSema or insulin icodec, which participants must inject once a week with a pen, which has a small needle, in a skin fold in the thigh, upper arm, or stomach. The study will last for about 1 year and 1 month. Participants will have 21 clinic visits, 31 phone/video calls with the study doctor, and 4 contacts with the site that can either be clinic visits or phone/video calls At 11 clinic visits participants will have blood samples taken. At 7 clinic visits participants cannot eat or drink (except for water) for 8 hours before the visit. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to get pregnant during the study period. Not applicable for China: Participants will be asked to wear a sensor that measures their blood sugar level all the time during a 5 week period at the end of the study.
Pre-existing diabetes prior KT and Early Post-Transplant Hyperglycemia (PTRH) defined as a fasting blood glucose greater than or equal to 126 mg/dL or random glucose greater than or equal to 200 mg/dL or requirement of insulin during the first 45 days after KT has been associated with increased risks of post-transplant organ rejection. PTRH has also been associated to high infection rates, and in some cases, early mortality. The use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) compared with blood glucose meter monitoring in non-transplant patients with diabetes resulted in lower HbA1C by 0.4 to 0.5% within the first three months of use without major changes in patients' antidiabetic regimen, possibly due to patients become more conscious about their diabetes status and diet. CGM free style libre-2 measures the interstitial fluid every minute and their glucose sensors are replaced every two weeks. To our knowledge there are no studies that assess the role of CGM in improving glycemic and transplant outcomes in solid organ transplant patients, mainly because access to CGM is often limited by inadequate health insurance coverage or high out-of-pocket costs. The investigators hypothesize that the intervention will be feasible and acceptable to patients, and our overarching hypothesis is that patients who wear a CGM will have better glycemic control, using a proxy measure of lower fructosamine/albumin ratio and better CGM-parameters, compared to those who did not wear it. Fructosamine represents the average glycemia for the 2 to 3 weeks prior. It is useful in any situation where glycemic control needs to be assessed over a period shorter than a month and in cases involving interference in the HbA1C measurement such as in adults with KT due to shorter red blood cell lifespan related to anemia of chronic disease. Fructosamine values vary in relation to the serum albumin concentration, which makes the fructosamine/albumin ratio the ideal physiologic measure for this pilot study . The investigators also hypothesize that patients who wear a CGM will have less microalbuminuria compared to those who did not wear it.
The overarching aim of this proposal is to test the efficacy of financial incentives in improving HbA1c, blood pressure, and quality of life in food insecure adults with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes. Using a clinical trial design, the investigators will randomize food insecure adults with type 2 diabetes to one of three financial incentive structures in combination with monthly mailings that will include diabetes education, healthy recipes, and meal planning resources.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of administering a 4th or 5th intralymphatic booster dose of GAD-alum (Diamyd®) to T1D patients carrying HLA DR3-DQ2, who have earlier been treated with three or four intralymphatic doses of GAD-alum (Diamyd®) respectively.
