Filter by:Continuous glucose monitors can help people with diabetes avoid blood sugar levels that are either dangerously high or low. This study evaluates whether continuous glucose monitoring after discharge from the emergency room can help people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes avoid repeat emergency room visits, achieve improved blood sugar control, and feel less distressed about managing their diabetes.
The risk of type 2 diabetes appears to be higher in patients with chronic inflammatory diseases, including chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). IBD is a group of inflammatory diseases that includes mainly Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Although the majority of IBD patients are not overweight, the prevalence of obesity in this population remains significant, estimated at 15 to 40%. It has been shown that obesity can impact the response to therapies used in IBD as well as the clinical course of the disease: 1) plasma concentrations of immunomodulatory therapies are often lower in the obese compared to those with a normal Body Mass Index (BMI) with a lower dose per kg of the administered drug as well as an acceleration of drug clearance. 2nd) Surgical management of IBD is associated with a higher risk of peri- and post-operative complications in obese patients, including an increase in operating time, bleeding risk, length of hospital stay and percentage of post-operative infections. 3e) Finally, obesity seems to have a negative impact on the clinical course of IBD, with a correlation between an increase in BMI and an increase in the number of hospitalizations, the number of follow-up consultations and the need for therapeutic escalation. One of the common pathophysiological explanations between IBD and metabolic syndrome (including type 2 diabetes and obesity), would involve metabolites in the gut that are modulated by the gut microbiota. Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 (aGLP1) analogues are a new class of injectable antidiabetic drugs that have revolutionized the management of type 2 diabetes. They include exenatide, lixisenatide, liraglutide, dulaglutide and semaglutide. They combine an effect on glycemic control but also usually a weight loss. In some countries, they are used in non-diabetic obese patients, with a weight loss of up to -10 to -15%. These molecules bind to GLP1 receptors, stimulate insulin secretion when blood glucose levels are high, decrease glucagon secretion, slow gastric emptying and stimulate satiety. In addition to glycemic control, weight reduction is most often associated. In addition, some aGLP1s have been shown to reduce cardiovascular events in diabetics. They are well tolerated, but their side effects are mainly digestive, such as nausea, vomiting and sometimes diarrhea. These problems occur in about 20% of cases, most often after the first injection, with vomiting requiring permanent cessation of treatment. Most often they gradually subside, spontaneously or after symptomatic treatment, and allow titration of the drug. Due to the lack of studies and possible intestinal effects, aGLP1 is not recommended in cases of severe gastrointestinal disease, and therefore in cases of IBD, although it is not contraindicated. The main objective of this study is to test the interest of these GLP1 analogues in type 2 diabetics with IBD, who are overweight and whose glycemic target is not reached. The expected benefit is to facilitate diabetes control and weight loss in this population. The second objective is to monitor the occurrence of adverse events in this population with the different GLP1 analogues used.
The effect of once daily dosing of oral Semaglutide versus once daily dosing Sitagliptin on glycemic control, body weight, and safety and tolerability will be compared in Liver Transplant Recipients with poorly-controlled Diabetes Mellitus.
This study assesses the system accuracy a blood glucose monitoring systems pursuant to ISO 15197
The overall purpose of this study is to describe the cellular composition of the human colon and its gene expression using scRNAseq and scATACseq methods. This will potentially provide is with a detailed map of the colon aiding our understanding of how diseases of the colon develop as well as the colons influence on systemic diseases such as type II diabetes.
Strategies to reduce sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) have become one of the leading public health targets to address the epidemics of obesity and diabetes. National food, nutrition, and health policies and programs have positioned low-fat milk as the preferred caloric replacement strategy for SSBs. This strategy derives from evidence that replacement of SSBs with low-fat milk is associated with reductions in weight and incident diabetes in prospective cohort studies and reduces liver fat (an important early metabolic lesion linking obesity to diabetes), as well as triglycerides and blood pressure in randomized trials. Whether these benefits hold for soy milk alternatives is unclear. There is an urgent need for studies to clarify the benefits of soy milk as an alternative to cow's milk. Our overarching aim is to produce high-quality clinical evidence that informs the use of soy as a "public health intervention" for addressing the dual epidemics of obesity and diabetes and overall metabolic health. To achieve this aim, we propose to conduct the Soy Treatment Evaluation for Metabolic health (STEM) trial, a large, pragmatic, randomized controlled trial to assess the effect of using 2% soy milk (soy protein vehicle) versus 2% cow's milk (casein and whey vehicle matched for protein and volume) as a "public health intervention" to replace SSBs on liver fat and key cardiometabolic mediators/indicators in an at risk population.
To evaluate the relationship between glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and average glucose levels using continuous glucose monitoring.
This randomized clinical trial will examine the effect of inforatio technique on healing of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). Inforatio technique is a novel procedure developed by the research group. The definition of inforatio technique is application of small cuts in wound beds with punch biopsy tools without involving surrounding epithelia. The aim is to initiate an acute inflammatory response that will promote healing of the ulcers.
In this study, we will assess the change of serum ACE-2, angiotensin(1-7), and vascular function after using olmesartan (an ARB), compared to conventional anti-hypertensive drug, amlodipine in hypertensive patients with T2DM.
This clinical study will investigate Jejunal Microbiota in Metabolic Diseases (Je-MiMe, n=45) and Colonic mucosa-associated Microbiota in Metabolic Diseases (Col-MiMe, n=45). Each cohort (Je and Col -MiMe) is composed of three groups: participants with obesity (n=15) with obesity and with type II diabetes (n=15). This research protocol is organized in two parts. Each part of this study will recruit 45 participants that are only recruited in one of the parts of the protocol (JE-MIME or COL-MIME). Thus, in total, the study will include 90 patients. Each part of this study is composed of 3 groups: 1) "Control Group ", 2) Obese group (Ob), 3) Obese and Type 2 Diabetes group (ObD). Control groups for part I (JE-MIME) and part 2 (COL-MIME) are composed of different participants. Each group is composed of 15 human adult volunteers for the JE-MIME study (part 1) and 15 participants for the COL-MIME study (part 2). Total number of participants is 45 for part 1, and 45 for part 2. Total number for this project is 90. Microbiota wil be collected during an endoscopy or coloscopy which is planned as routine care for the patients. Primary objectives are to characterize jejunal (JE-MIME, Part I of the study) and colonic mucosa-associated microbiota (COLMIME, Part II of the study) and compare both microbiota to faecal microbiota (evaluate differences and similarities between jejunal microbiota or mucus-associated microbiota and faecal microbiota). Secondary objectives are to 1) Correlate microbiota with metabolic health and inflammatory markers; 2) Correlate microbiota with lifestyle and neuropsychological health. Both the jejunal microbiota and mucus-associated microbiota are strong integrators of nutritional environment and intestinal health status, respectively, compared to the fecal microbiota. This study will help to better understand the physiopathology of metabolic diseases. This research could lead to finding specific microbiota members, either from the jejunal compartment or from the inner mucus layer, crucial for the promotion / protection of chronic intestinal inflammation and associated metabolic health.
