Coronary vascular dysfunction is highly prevalent among patients with known or suspected Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)1, increases the severity of inducible myocardial ischemia (beyond the effects of upstream coronary obstruction)2, and identifies patients at high risk for serious adverse events, including cardiac death1, 3-5. Diabetic patients without known CAD with impaired coronary vascular function show a risk of cardiac death comparable to, and possibly higher, than that for non-diabetic patients with known CAD10. In the setting of increased oxygen demand, coronary vasodilator dysfunction can upset the supply-demand relationship and lead to myocardial ischemia, subclinical left ventricular dysfunction (diastolic and systolic), and symptoms. The significance of microvascular coronary dysfunction is increasingly recognized as invasive and non-invasive (PET) methods of quantifying CFR become available. Importantly, current treatment strategies for obstructive CAD, such as percutaneous coronary intervention with angioplasty and stenting, are not helpful in microvascular disease. Similarly, mortality-altering treatments for systolic heart failure, such as angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, have not been beneficial in treating diastolic dysfunction.
The purpose of this post-marketing surveillance is to investigate and confirm the type and incidence of newly identified adverse events and any other factors affecting safety and efficacy of Kombiglyze Extended release (XR) so that the regulatory authority can manage the marketing approval properly
About the Study: This research study is being conducted to see if diabetic ketoacidosis has any impact on learning, behavior and development in children with Type 1 diabetes mellitus. If there is an impact, is it transient or persistent? Sixty to 80 children between the ages of 4 to 17 years with Type 1 diabetes mellitus will have neuropsychological testing and a non-sedated MRI scan of the head performed. The investigators will compare this to a control group of 30-40 children between the ages of 4 to 17 years without Type 1 diabetes mellitus. The children with Type 1 diabetes mellitus will not have any changes made to their current diabetes regimen. The children with Type 1 diabetes mellitus should continue to check blood glucose values as required by your doctor and bring their meter(s) for downloading to each visit. The children with Type 1 diabetes mellitus should also tell your doctor about the frequency of severe low and high blood glucose values.
This is a research study to understand how diabetic ketoacidosis may affect the brain and learning and to see if these changes are transient or permanent. The investigators hope to learn more about how diabetic ketoacidosis may cause changes in brain compliance (by wearing a non-invasive head band/helmet like device from Jan Medical: The Nautilus Neurowave System™ (NNS), learning, talking, behavior, or development. The investigators will compare those results from those with diabetes mellitus to those age and gendered matched healthy controls. Possible subjects in this study have diabetes mellitus and are between the ages of 10 to less than 17 years old OR do NOT have diabetes and are between the ages of 10 to less than 17 years old.
Malnutrition is a frequent problem in critically ill patients that is associated with detrimental clinical outcomes. To provide adequate nutritional support, current studies focused mostly on the choice of delivery timing, formula selection and the route of administration, little attention was paid to malnutrition related to exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI). In fact, malnutrition is also a major consequence of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency and pancreatic damage is commonly observed in critically ill patients without prior pancreatic diseases. Hence, EPI associated malnutrition should be concerned due to the high prevalence of pancreatic damage in critically ill patients. The aims of this study is to evaluate the incidence of EPI in critically ill adult patients and explore its potential risk factors. Moreover, the efficacy of pancreatic enzyme supplementation therapy on malnutrition in ICU patients with specific clinical characteristics will be investigated.
This study will test whether lowering the delivery of excess fats to the heart in persons with type-2 diabetes mellitus improves heart muscle function. The investigators will also test whether specific lipid molecular species in plasma can serve as biomarkers for diabetic heart disease.
The purpose of this study is to assess the accuracy of two continuous glucose monitoring devices (the Dexcom G4 Platinum and Medtronic Enlite systems) in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
The primary purpose of this study is to help answer the following research questions: - To evaluate how much of the study drug (LY2605541) is in the blood of participants with varying degrees of liver impairment compared to those with normal liver function - To assess the safety of LY2605541 and any side effects that might be associated with it
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment with SYR-472 in diabetic patients.
