Filter by:Epidemiological data suggest, that not only sugar-based, but also artificially sweetened soft drinks may play a role in the development of diabetes. Recent studies in animals and humans have shown, that artificial sweeteners (AS) influence metabolic responses after glucose ingestion, possibly alter the intestinal microbiome and even modulate incretin release. Data on human subjects are sparse and controversial, especially in a long-term manner. We therefore conduct a cross-over study to assess metabolic response to sweetened vs. non-sweetened soft drinks, which are consumed over a period of 4 weeks.
Basal insulin is widely used in older patients with diabetes. Human insulin Neutral Protamine Hagedorn (NPH) has been proposed as basal insulin in older (75 years or older) frail and dependent patients due to its shorter action. However, no study has analysed the glycaemic profile in elderly subjects according to the basal insulin used, particularly in frail or disabled patients. The aim of this study is to measure intra-day glycaemic variability according basal insulin (human NPH or long acting analogues) in older (75 and older) frail or disabled patients with diabetes using continuous glucose monitoring system.
Retrospective, observational study to determine the prevalence of complications in Central American diabetic patients.
This study evaluates a family-focused mobile phone-delivered intervention, called FAMS (Family-focused Add-on for Motivating Self-care), in supporting adults with type 2 diabetes in their self-management relative to a control group. The goal of this study is to ascertain if family-focused content delivered to the patient can improve the patients' family support for diabetes self-care, self-efficacy, and adherence to diet and exercise recommendations.
The aim of this pilot study is to assess the safety and preliminary efficacy of 5-ALA - SFC at doses up to 200 mg per day in subjects with type II diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to assess the relative bioavailability of a TAK-648 tablet compared with a TAK-648 oral solution, and to assess the effect of food on the bioavailability of a TAK-648 tablet in healthy participants.
This is a cluster randomized trial (CRT) to assess the effectiveness of a culturally appropriate behavioral intervention to reduce obesity levels and ultimately the risk of developing diabetes type II in immigrant Latino farm workers. Randomization is at the farm ranch level. Individuals at intervention ranches will receive a multi-week curriculum at the work-site on diabetes, diet and physical activity and optional supplemental sessions in the evening and weekends. The investigators will adopt the intent-to-treat principle for the primary analysis. Individuals on control ranches will receive no health educational instruction. The primary outcome is BMI. The investigators hypothesize that intervention ranches will achieve significant improvement in obesity and diabetes risk factors as compared to control ranches.
Major barriers to controlling cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in India and elsewhere are: low detection rates, inadequate use of evidence based interventions and low adherence with these interventions. Primary health care is the appropriate setting for improving the prevention and management of these chronic conditions. The investigators will develop and evaluate an innovative mobile health (mHealth) software application -'m-WELLCARE'- which provides a patient health profile, decision support for clinical care, monitoring and feedback for use in Indian Community Health Centers (CHCs). The investigators will conduct this research following the steps proposed by the medical research council (MRC) for evaluation of complex interventions. Technical development of m-WELLCARE will be conducted, user acceptability appraised and potential barriers overcome. m-WELLCARE will be evaluated in CHCs of two states, Haryana and Karnataka. The use made of m-WELLCARE, its impact on patterns of health care received and changes in risk factors achieved will be evaluated.
This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of the trial is to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (the exposure of the trial drug in the body) and pharmacodynamics (the effect of the investigated drug on the body) of insulin 320 in healthy subjects.
Emergency Department (ED) patients with severe hyperglycemia will be randomized to two treatment goals: discharge glucose less than 600 mg/dL or less than 350 mg/dL. Randomization is stratified by whether the chief complaint is "High Blood Sugar" in the electronic medical record or other.
