Background: Depression is a common comorbidity of physical chronic diseases such as diabetes and/or hypertension and constitutes an important public health problem. It correlates negatively with the patients' quality of life and self-care, as well as compliance with medical treatment. In low- and middle-income countries depression often goes unrecognized and untreated, and there are limited human resources to treat depression and other mental problems. Aim: The present study aims to test a 6-week low-intensity psychological intervention (CONEMO - CONtrol EMOcional) delivered by a smartphone application to people with depressive symptoms and co-morbid diabetes and/or hypertension recruited in primary health care centers and public hospitals in Lima, Peru.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) can be prevented through weight loss and increased physical activity, yet its prevalence continues to rise. This trend may be due in part to low rates of participation in evidence-based lifestyle change programs such as the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP). New strategies are needed to promote healthy behaviors among individuals at risk for T2DM, and mobile health technologies may be an effective and scalable approach to achieve this. One promising tool is JOOL Health, a mobile phone-based application that leverages principles from Self-Determination Theory to help individuals understand how certain behaviors (e.g. sleep, diet, physical activity) influence their ability to pursue their core values and purpose in life. Through personalized messaging and feedback, JOOL Health aims to increase autonomous motivation, a form of motivation closely associated with the initiation and maintenance of healthy behaviors. In this mixed methods pilot randomized controlled trial, the investigators will test whether the JOOL Health mobile phone-based application -- used alone and in conjunction with other mobile health technologies to track weight and physical activity -- can increase autonomous motivation to prevent type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among individuals with prediabetes who previously declined participation in a Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP).
Data from participants in Athens CHIP classes from May 2011 to present will be analyzed to evaluate the differences in outcomes based on: 1) gender, 2) age, 3) whether a household member participated in the class with them. Participants had health screens before and after completing the class. The data from the health screens that will be utilized for comparison will include: body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, and fasting blood sugar and lipid levels.
A learner-centered diabetes survival skills self-management education program was provided to adults with uncontrolled diabetes in the hospital and generated preliminary evidence of impact on medication adherence and a trend toward reduction in hospital and emergency department admissions.
The EarEEG system is a novel non-invasive, unobstructed and discrete method for recording EEG in which the signal is recorded using dry-contact electrodes embedded on a customised ear piece. One intended medical indication of the EarEEG system is the detection of hypoglycaemia-induced changes in the EEG in patients with type 1 diabetes. Currently, no studies exist investigating the detection of hypoglycaemic episodes by use of ear electrodes. While a finger prick test accurately measures the blood glucose level, it does not provide continuous measurements, and hence it is unreliable as a hypoglycaemia alarm. Recent studies have indicated that the use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) reduces the risk of severe hypoglycaemia. However, some find these devices troublesome to use and utilisation of CGM has remained limited to date. Observational data show that only a small percentage of patients with type 1 diabetes are using CGM on an ongoing basis. Thus, there is a medical need for a reliable hypoglycaemia detection device which is easy and convenient to use. This clinical study aims at investigating the feasibility of measuring hypoglycaemia induced changes in the EEG by use of the EarEEG system.
To understand the effectiveness of three approaches to address diabetes self-management support compared to enhanced usual care in church-based settings.
This trial is conducted globally. The aim of the trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of oral semaglutide versus placebo in subjects with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus treated with insulin. All subjects should continue their pre-trial insulin therapy (basal, basal-bolus or premixed regimen including combinations of soluble insulins) throughout the trial. Subjects treated with metformin in addition to insulin treatment must continue their metformin treatment throughout the entire trial.
The objective of this study is to determine the glycaemic effect of isomaltulose and sucrose in Chinese, Indian, Malay, and Caucasian individuals. The current study will provide important information on the potential health benefits of isomaltulose consumption in Asian population. It will also reveal how the three main ethnicities in Singapore respond to isomaltulose and whether the response differs from the Caucasians.
The primary objective of the present study is to evaluate the effect of HMG-CoA reductase inhibition during 14 days on the postprandial plasma GLP-1 response in healthy individuals. Secondary objectives include the evaluation of HMG-CoA reductase inhibition on postprandial glucose tolerance, gallbladder emptying, gastric emptying, plasma responses of lipids, bile acids and pancreatic and enteric hormones known to influence glucose metabolism and appetite, and faecal content of bile acids and gut microbiota composition.
