Filter by:OBJETIVE To assess the effect of acetylsalicylic acid on antioxidant enzymatic system in patients with type 2 diabetes
The purpose of this study is to compare a needle-free treatment of hypoglycemia with nasal glucagon (study drug) to a marketed glucagon administered by the intramuscular (IM) route, in participants with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of 5 weeks treatment with dapagliflozin in type 2 diabetes patients on how the hormone insulin acts on sugar uptake in muscles.
A non-interventional cohort study using existing data from patients in the Optum Clinical Database which contains electronic health record (EHR) data from providers across the United States to determine whether there is comparable effectiveness of linagliptin on glycemic effectiveness
The aim of this study was to evaluate if the positive effects recorded on glycemic control with CSII were maintained on the long term compared to multi-daily injections (MDI). The secondary objective was to evaluate if there is a reduction of type and number of cardiovascular events (CV) in CSII group compared to MDI group after 8 years of observation. This retrospective, observational trial evaluated 104 diabetic patients with prior treatment with MDI initiating CSII therapy compared to 109 diabetic patients continuing MDI.
the purpose of this study is to determine whether appropriate control of diabetes around the PCI time is related with MACE and outcome of diabetic patients.
The use of videolarygoscopy (VL) as first choice for tracheal intubation versus direct laryngoscopy (DL) is a matter of debate. These two methods were compared in several studies. Videolaryngoscopes may reduce the number of failed intubations, particularly among patients presenting with a difficult airway. They improve the glottic view and may reduce airway trauma. DM is accepted as a risk factor for difficult intubation. The aim of this study is to compare VL to DL in adult patients requiring tracheal intubation for anesthesia, in terms of intubation success, glottic view quality, intubation failure, intubation time, conversion to another laringoscopy method and adverse outcomes related to tracheal intubation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TTP399 in Type 1 diabetics. This study will be in 2 phases: phase 1 will evaluate the safety of different TTP399 dosage regimens over 1 week of daily dosing. Phase 2 will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a TTP399 dosing regimen over 12 weeks of daily dosing.
Diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypertension (HT) are major causes of morbidity and among the top 10 causes of deaths in Hong Kong in 2008 (Department of Health 2009). The Hospital Authority (HA) has initiated service improvement through introducing the shared-care (SC) programme to improve the quality of care (QOC) for DM and HT patients. The evaluation on the QOC is an essential part of the programme in order to inform future policy. The Family Medicine Unit (FMU) of the University of Hong Kong (HKU) has been appointed by the HA to carry out the evaluation of the QOC of the programme. The Action Learning and Audit Spiral methodologies to measure whether the target standard of care intended by the SC programme is achieved. Each SC participating clinic and private medical practitioner (PMP) will be invited to complete a structured evaluation questionnaire. The data of all patients who have enrolled into the programme will be included in the evaluation on the process and outcomes of care. A hundred and thirty participants will be followed up by telephone to evaluate the effect of the programme in quality of life (QOL), patient enablement, and global rating of change in health condition at baseline and 6 months after enrolment. Data on the process of care will be retrieved from the HA medical records. Main Outcome Measures: The primary outcomes are the proportion of participants who received the criterion process of care and achieved a HbA1c level <7.5%. Data Analysis: Descriptive statistics on proportions of clinics or subjects meeting the quality of care criteria will be calculated. The outcomes of SC patients will be compared at 6, 12, 24, 36 and 48 months by paired sample t-test. The outcomes between SC patients and control group will be compared by independent sample t-test or Chi-square test. Hypothesis: The QOC of the SC programme will be determined. Areas of deficiency and possible areas for quality enhancement will be identified. The results of this study will provide empirical evidence on whether the HA's SC programme can achieve equivalent QOC as the usual HA care for diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. The information will be used to guide service planning and policy decision making.
Feasibility of a Complex Behavioral Intervention for Young Adults with Diabetes: The Resilient, Empowered, Active Living-Telehealth (REAL-T) Study will evaluate the feasibility of implementing a diabetes management intervention via telehealth in preparation for a large-scale randomized controlled trial (RCT) entitled Evaluation of a Complex Behavioral Intervention for Young Adults with Diabetes: The Resilient, Empowered, Active Living-Telehealth (REAL-T) Study.
