Filter by:Since diabetes is a chronic disease closely related to unhealthy lifestyle, the improvement and management of living habits are as significant as medical care with regard to the disease. In addition, this is regarded as the most effective method for prevention and treatment of diabetes. However, many diabetic patients are now reported to lack proper management in Korea with a low level of compliance with treatment instruction. In that sense, it is urgently necessary to develop a program in which diabetic patients are able to effectively manage their own blood glucose at home, and to grasp the real state of self-blood glucose measurement. Accordingly, a system to manage diabetes using electronic equipment such as mobile phone or the Internet is currently being developed and studied, for the effective management of diabetes with the help of highly evolving information technology. These investigators have developed a diabetes management program that provides an optimal solution based on a mobile device and software, so that individual patients can undergo a regular blood glucose test and achieve improvement and constant management of living habits by being properly informed of how to manage diabetes. This clinical study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness and efficacy of the application through the comparison between usual medical care and additional care using the smartphone application, targeting patients with type 2 diabetes who lack blood glucose control. This study is targeted at the subjects who are being treated at this hospital's endocrinology, are using a smartphone, and voluntarily signed the informed consent form (ICF). The subjects who pass the subject eligibility evaluation provide information regarding assessment items and demographic information using the smartphone application and questionnaire. Based on the information given by subjects, the medical team offers a management system that supports and improves the existing treatment process of diabetes using the application developed on its own. The feasibility and effectiveness of the management using the application are evaluated through the result values of the laboratory tests performed during the subject's usual medical care.
Whole grains have been associated with controlled glycemic response and increased satiety compared to refined grains. However, the properties of whole grains which are responsible for these purported improved health outcomes are still unclear. The current study investigated the extent of whole grains' low glycemic property when food properties are controlled, and how this relates to gastric emptying rate and glycemic response.
This RCT will compare the efficacy of Preventing and Reducing Emergency Visits in Diabetes through Education and Trust (PREVENT) vs. intensive home-based diabetes (DM) education [i.e., Enhanced Usual Care (EUC)] to reduce DM-related emergency department (ED) visits and/or hospitalizations over 12 months (primary outcome) in 230 blacks with diabetes, 50 years and older, after an ED visit. A moderation analysis will determine whether participants who reside in low- vs. high-need communities [defined by Community Need Index scores (i.e., an indicator of the built environment)] respond differently to treatment. PREVENT is a collaborative intervention of Primary Care Physicians, (PCPs), a DM nurse educator, and Community Health Workers (CHWs) that extends from the ED into the community. The CHWs will: 1) deliver in-home DM education to increase participants' knowledge and skills to manage DM; 2) use DM-specific Behavioral Activation to reinforce DM self-care; and 3) facilitate telehealth visits with PCPs and a DM nurse educator to increase access to care. The control treatment, EUC, is home-based intensive DM education. EUC matches PREVENT in treatment intensity (i.e., number and duration of in-home visits) and delivery of DM self-care education, but does not include PREVENTS's other active elements (i.e., Behavioral Activation and telehealth). The treatment comparison will identify PREVENTS's specific efficacy over and above EUC. We hypothesize that PREVENT will halve the rate of incident DM-related ED visits and/or hospitalizations relative to EUC. The three secondary outcomes are: 1) subjective perceptions of access to care; 2) receipt of DM Quality Metrics (i.e., objective indicators of realized access to care); and 3) DM self-care.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of the medicines, probenecid and ciclosporin on the concentrations of SNAC. SNAC is an ingredient of the semaglutide tablets. Participants will get 3 different treatments (that is 3 treatment periods): 1) a single dose of 3 mg semaglutide, 2) a single dose of 600 mg ciclosporin with 3 mg semaglutide, 3) 500 mg probenecid twice a day for 3 ½ days with a single dose of 3 mg semaglutide on the last day. The sequence of treatments participants get is decided by chance. Probenecid and ciclosporin are available medicines. They are given by doctors. Semaglutide contains SNAC. It cannot be prescribed yet. The study will last for up to 125 days. Participants will have 17 to 18 visits at the study centre. This includes short visits at the centre for blood sampling only. Participants will have several blood draws.
The aim of the study is to assess the risk of urinary tract malignancies in patients initiating empagliflozin (free or fixed dose combination) compared to patients initiating a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor and to patients initiating other Sodium glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors (i.e. two comparator groups)
This is a phase Ⅰ，single-center, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose trial of SY-008 in healthy subjects.
Primary Objective: To compare the metabolic and gastrointestinal pharmacodynamic (PD) effects of an 8 weeks treatment with sotagliflozin once daily (QD) to an 8 weeks treatment to empagliflozin QD in mild or moderate hypertensive T2DM patients on a stable treatment regimen with metformin and an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or Angiotensin Receptor Blocker (ARB) under standardized diet conditions. Secondary Objectives: - To compare the renal and cardiovascular PD effects of an 8 weeks treatment with sotagliflozin QD to an 8 weeks treatment to empagliflozin QD in mild or moderate hypertensive T2DM patients on a stable treatment regimen with metformin and an ACE inhibitor or ARB. - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of an 8 weeks QD treatment with sotagliflozin or empagliflozin in mild to moderate hypertensive T2DM patients on a stable treatment with metformin and an ACE inhibitor or ARB. - To evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of sotagliflozin in steady state conditions.
This experimental study is planned to investigate the impact of hypoglycaemia on platelet activation parameters (PAP) during a hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemic clamp study. The hypothesis that hypoglycaemia in patients with Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 (T2DM) leads to increased platelet activation will be tested.
This study investigates the differences between subjects with and without periodontitis in: the prevalence of (pre)diabetes mellitus, the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and the risk of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
Prospective cross-sectional study at the outpatient clinic (OPC) of the Bagamoyo District Hospital (BDH) in Tanzania. Assessment of basic epidemiological data (Point prevalence and risk factors) on CKD with simple clinical, laboratory tests and the patients history. After informed consent blood samples are taken for complete blood count, serum creatinine, HbA1c, HIV-Screening, and urine samples for dipstick, urine sediment, and albumin-creatinine ratio. Further, office blood pressure, weight and height are taken. Further, patients history are asked by a questionnaire (i.e.history of infectious and cardiovascular diseases and basic demographic data: i.e. sex, age). CKD is defined as the presence of either impaired kidney function and/or albuminuria based on a one-time measurement. Primary outcome of the study are prevalence rates of CKD and the impact of non-communicable and communicable disorders on CKD.
