Filter by:the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and safety and tolerability of single and multiple oral doses of BI 10773 at low dose once daily (q.d.) and high dose q.d. administered to Chinese female and male patients with type 2 diabetes will be investigated.
The investigators hypothesize that a training course to people with diabetes on peer support and empowerment will improve their glycemic parameters, knowledge on diabetes and level of self efficacy. This group of trained patients (peer leaders) should be competent to teach and help other patients with diabetes through peer support and empowerment on better self management of their diabetes.
This study aimed to examine the prevalence of glucose metabolism disorders (GMD)in the patients with coronary artery disease and the relationship between different GMDs and coronary artery disease (CAD).
The goal of the proposed research is to test whether a long-term exercise program in sedentary Veterans with diabetes will produce sustained improvement in mobility performance and physical activity. In this proposed research, 240 sedentary older adult diabetics (aged 60 and over) will be randomly allocated into a customized, primarily home-based, functionally-oriented exercise program with nurse support intervention (I) group versus a flexibility and toning, health education control (C) group, and test outcomes in functional mobility and physical activity at 4 weeks, 6 months and one year. This research can lead to an exercise/PA enhancement program that can coordinate with VA outreach programs, targeting older Veterans who are not in the immediate vicinity of a major VA site. Ultimately, this should create a model to which physicians and other providers could refer comorbid diabetes patients.
The main objectives of this study is to measure the composition of five common types of dates (Fara'd, Lulu, Abu ouma'n, Dabbas and Khalas) and to calculate their Glycemic Indices (GI) of these dates tested in healthy and diabetic subjects. Thirteen healthy volunteers and ten subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus were enrolled in the study. The dates' flesh composition analysis showed that the dates contain a high percentage of carbohydrate (total sugars, 65-68%). The measured mean glycemic indices of the dates among healthy individuals were 54.0, 53.5, 46.3, 49.1 and 55.1 for Fara'd, Lulu, Abu Ouma'n, Dabbas and Khalas, respectively. Corresponding mean glycemic indices among individuals with type 2 diabetes were very similar 46.1, 43.8, 51.8, 50.2, and 53.0. Thus the tested five varieties of the dates are classified as low glycemic index food items.
This trial will evaluate use of BI 10773 as add-on to insulin regimen alone or with metformin in patients with typr 2 diabetes. Both lowering glucose and HbA1c and reducing the use of insulin in this population would provide significant new information for the BI 10773 use and would offer a potential new therapeutic option in this population.
The aim of this study is to evaluate liver fibrosis using FibroScan and biochemical markers in patients with diabetes.
Mulberry leaf teas or extracts are used as a natural remedy for diabetes in some countries. Animal studies have shown some effect of mulberry leaf extract on blood glucose. The purpose of this trial is to assess the effect of mulberry leaf extract on type 2 diabetics, by measuring blood glucose two hours after eating a meal and taking a capsule containing either mulberry leaf extract or a placebo.
- To investigate ocular haemodynamics after phacoemulsification surgery - To evaluate the influence in people with different autoregulation of ocular blood flow
Evaluation of the safety and efficacy of gastric contractility modulation (GCM) stimulation using the TANTALUS System in the improvement of glycemic control measured by changes in HbA1c. Effects of GCM on weight loss and associated co-morbid conditions will also be evaluated
