Filter by:There is currently no way to predict the progression of chronic kidney disease in patients with metabolic disease(s). Furthermore, the mechanisms responsible for the development and/or progression of complications remain largely unknown. In order to identify the predictive factors and/or mechanisms involved in the different complications of these diseases, we propose an approach coupling : - a classical phenotypic characterization (clinical, biological, imaging) of the patients - high-throughput screening of the genome, transcriptome, metabolome, proteome, and immunophenotyping. According to our hypothesis, this approach should allow : - Early detection of complications - Classification of patients in homogeneous groups of patients with identical evolution - Identification of the molecular mechanisms involved.
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is a major chronic lifestyle-related disorder with a significant impact on quality and costs of care. As patients with T2DM often have insufficient knowledge about proper self-management and are insufficiently motivated for a lifestyle change, interventions with more motivational strategies and personalization are needed. The use of real-time monitoring of glucose values, nutrition and physical activity in combination with coaching aimed at lifestyle-related behavior change may improve patients' diabetes management. Therefore, ZGT, UT and RRD developed the Diameter app. The aim of phase 2 of this study is to investigate the Diameter as blended-care using a feasibility study. The primary objective of this feasibility study is to assess intervention usage and acceptability of the Diameter as a blended-care intervention in secondary care, of which some are also following a combined lifestyle intervention (GLI). Secondary objectives are to explore behavioral (e.g. physical activity), physiological (e.g. BMI), psychological (e.g. health-related quality of life) and clinical outcomes (e.g. glucose control, estimated HbA1c values). This study has a mixed-method design with 3 (regular participants) or 4 (participants who decide to follow the Combined Lifestyle Intervention (GLI) COOL next to the Diameter during the study period) data collection points. Patients will start with a two-week period of baseline measurements. Subsequently, patients will use the Diameter as a blended-care intervention for 10 weeks. The two-week measurement periods will be repeated twice (T1: week 13-14 and at T2: week 25-26). Between T1 and T2, patients will use a version of the Diameter without daily coaching messages. At T1 and T2, questionnaires will be administered, data on physical activity, food intake and glucose values will be logged, and blood and urine samples will be retrieved from regular care measurements. In addition, open-ended interviews will be performed with 10-15 patients at T1. For participants who also decided to follow the COOL program, some routinely collected measurements as part of the COOL program will be obtained from the patient record.
The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of high dose atorvastatin (40 mg) versus high dose rosuvastatin (20 mg) in Egyptian type II diabetic patients with previous acute coronary syndrome history. This open-labeled prospective, randomized clinical trial compared once daily atorvastatin 40mg (Ator®) versus once daily rosuvastatin 20mg (Crestor®). The primary outcome was the 50% reduction in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels at 12 weeks. The secondary outcome was the achievement of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol level < 55 mg/dl.

The objective is to evaluate a culturally tailored adaptation of The Finnish Geriatric Intervention Study to Prevent Cognitive Impairment and Disability (FINGER) protocol targeted for individuals with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) living in the border areas of Ireland. The primary research question to be addressed is; what is the feasibility and acceptability of implementing a multicomponent intervention for the target population in a community setting in comparison to standard clinical care. The study protocol was informed by a phase 1 qualitative study (REC ref 19/NI/0011) involving the target population i.e. older people with Type 2 DM from the border areas of N Ireland and the Republic of Ireland and has been amended (version 2.0) in response to the coronavirus pandemic
This is a phase IV, randomized (1:1), prospective, double-blind, placebo controlled, parallel-group, single center study at the Clinical Research Unit (CRC) of the Department of Nephrology and Hypertension, with its two separate locations: - Nürnberg, Kreuzburger Str. 2, 90471 Nürnberg, and - Erlangen, Ulmenweg 18, 91054 Erlangen The main goal of the study is to demonstrate the effect of semaglutide on different vascular parameters of the macro- and microcirculation. The primary objective is to analyze the effect of semaglutide, compared to placebo on central (aortic) pulse pressure. At least 90 patients will be randomized (1:1) and included (informed consent, intention to treat population) in order to obtain 80 fully evaluable subjects (per protocol population). Patients will be simultaneously recruited from investigator's outpatient clinics, referring physicians, and advertisement in local newspapers, and social media. Those patients that appear to potentially fulfill the inclusion criteria will be invited to a screening visit (visit 1). After providing informed consent, patients will be tested for inclusion/exclusion criteria. Patients will provide a blood sample for laboratory testing. If the patient then fulfills inclusion criteria and in the absence of exclusion criteria, the patient will be enrolled into the trial, and the study visits will be scheduled. Randomization will take place at the latest one day prior to the study visit 2 (e.g. at the latest at visit 2a). At visit 2 (2a and 2b), baseline vascular function parameters will be obtained and the patient will be given a SC injection of the study drug (either SC 0.25 mg semaglutide or SC placebo). After giving detailed instructions to the patient how to apply the injections, the patient will be advised to apply the injection once weekly. A safety visit will be conducted 1 week after first administration of study drug (visit 3). At visit 4 and 5, semaglutide will be up-titrated to 0.5 mg and 1.0 mg respectively. At visit 6, a safety visit will be conducted and the dose of semaglutide will be kept at 1.0 mg. After 16 weeks of treatment (visits 7a and 7b), testing of vascular function will be repeated. At visit 7b, a final close out visit will be performed to gather additional safety information.
The Validation of the Diabetes Deep Neural Network Score (DNN score) for Screening for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (diabetes) is a single center, unblinded, observational study to clinically validating a previously developed remote digital biomarker, identified as the DNN score, to screen for diabetes. The previously developed DNN score provides a promising avenue to detect diabetes in these high-risk communities by leveraging photoplethysmography (PPG) technology on the commercial smartphone camera that is highly accessible. Our primary aim is to prospectively clinically validate the PPG DNN algorithm against the reference standards of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) for the presence of prevalent diabetes. Our vision is that this clinical trial may ultimately support an application to the Food and Drug Administration so that it can be incorporated into guideline-based screening.
Randomized, controlled, pragmatic trial with open-label extension evaluating BT-001, an investigational digital therapeutic intended to help patients with type 2 diabetes improve their glycemic control.
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is considered one of the oldest fast-growing publichealth problems. It's a chronic metabolic disorder characterized mainly by highlevel of glucose level, associated globally with increased morbidity andmortality particularly in developing countries [1].DM leads to serious problems in heart, blood vessels, kidney and nerves.The World Health Organization (WHO) had anticipated that DM is going tobecome the seventh most significant primary cause of death worldwide by theyear 2030 [2]
