This study used a single-dose, open design to compare the pharmacokinetics of subjects with mild and moderate liver impairment and subjects with normal liver function.
Diabetes is one of the very common and chronic diseases in the present world, which affects children and adults. Diabetes is characterized by hyperglycemia. Hence, diabetic patients need to precisely monitor their blood sugar level regularly a few times a day. Currently, the solutions for self-monitoring blood glucose are invasive (finger prick method, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) using microneedle).The fully non-invasive CGM approaches still are in high demand. The medical device is developed, ultimately, to continuously measure the blood glucose level from continuous in-vivo photoacoustic signal. For this study, the goal is to check if the signal collected by the investigational device is relevant and exploitable in patients with type I diabetes. The main task of participants is to wear the investigational device during one week.
The purpose of this R15 project is to test the feasibility and effectiveness of a 12-week diabetes and hypertension self-management program using trained health coaches.
Introduction Diabetes is a global emergency with detrimental clinical and financial consequences. Poorly managed diabetes leads to a myriad of serious complications, especially cardiovascular and infectious complications, with consequent increased cost and mortality rate. For Muslims in particular, the annual fasting month of Ramadan is one such period when diabetes control is essential. Adequate adjustments in diabetes management need to be made in line with the allowed meal times to avoid the risk of diabetes complications during Ramadan. Objective Investigators aim to investigate the effectiveness of focused diabetes education and medication adjustment with telemonitoring to reduce diabetes complications during Ramadan fasting as well as to assess the cost-effectiveness of this intervention for Muslims with diabetes in Singapore. Methodology In a parallel group randomized controlled trial, investigators aim to recruit 100 adults with diabetes who are able to fast at least 15 days in Ramadan. Participants will be randomized to the intervention group comprising of focused diabetes education, medication adjustment and telemonitoring, and control group receiving standard care. Participants will be followed up during Ramadan. The primary outcome is the incidence of hypoglycemia in Ramadan. The secondary outcomes are (i) incidence of other diabetes complications in Ramadan episodes including hyperglycemia, episodes of acute infections, attendances in clinic and emergency department and that of hospital admission, and (ii) cost-effectiveness of the intervention. Clinical Significance The study enables investigators to evaluate focused pre-Ramadan diabetes education and medication adjustment with tele-monitoring as a means to reduce the markedly increased risk of diabetes complications for a large population during the fasting month, with potential for increased cost-effectiveness through reducing unscheduled attendances at clinic and hospital.
The goal of this interventional clinical study is to examine if there will be a change in metabolic indices (glycemic and lipid parameters) among persons with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who will receive a probiotic dietary supplement capsule for 6 months compared to those not receiving such a treatment (they will receive a matching placebo capsule that does not contain active ingredients). The main questions to answer are: 1. Will glycemic indices, i.e., glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and fasting blood glucose, be different in people taking the probiotic treatment, compared to those not taking it, after 6 months? 2. Will other metabolic indices, mostly blood lipid levels (total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL- and LDL-cholesterol) and liver function tests, be different in people taking the probiotic treatment compared to those not taking it after 6 months? 3. Will adiposity measures (weight, waist circumference) be affected by probiotic treatment in the two groups? Studies in animals and humans, mostly of shorter duration (<12 weeks) so far, have shown a possible trend towards improvement with probiotic treatment in all these parameters, but longer-term studies are scarce, and in Greece, there is none. Since diabetes treatment is complex (usually involving many medications) and expensive, developing cost-effective functional healthcare products for regulating blood glucose more efficiently has been recognized as a beneficial alternative. Participants will be adult individuals (>18 years old) with T2D, followed at the outpatient Diabetes Center of the Laiko General Hospital, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens Medical School, in Athens, Greece, who will be randomized to receive either a probiotic dietary supplement or a matching placebo capsule, once a day. They will be followed every 3 months (as is customary for diabetic patients). They will be monitored regarding their glycemic control (HbA1c and fasting blood glucose), lipid parameters, liver and renal function, and anthropometric changes (weight, waist circumference, and blood pressure). Furthermore, participants will be asked to give a stool sample at the study's beginning and end (6 months) for gut microbiota analysis. A questionnaire will also be administered at the last visit (6 months) asking about patients' tolerance and satisfaction with the treatment (frequency of constipation, diarrhea, bowel function, bloating, gas production, and abdominal pain).
This quasi-experimental study is done to investigate the effect of Shared Medical Appointments (SMA) program for the diabetic patients in Taiwan. The relevant corresponding effects were determined via the generalized estimating equation (GEE) model.
The study is a randomized control trial involving 100 participants (Black men with poorly controlled diabetes within 1 year of release from incarceration) to examine the effect of a tailored nurse case manager on glycemic control and other clinical outcomes, self-care behaviors, and quality of life at 6 months post-randomization.
This clinical trial develops and tests a culturally-appropriate educational program (Indigenous SIPin) for reducing sugar-sweetened beverage consumption in men affiliated with Native American athletics communities. Sugary drinks are drinks like pop, soda, and juice. Increased sugar consumption may lead to an increased risk of chronic diseases, including obesity, diabetes, some types of obesity-related cancers, coronary heart disease, hypertension, and dental decay. A culturally sensitive program may help reduce sugar-sweetened beverage consumption in Native American men
Lifestyle change is key to diabetes management but there are limited resources and time to support patients in improving lifestyle behaviour in the current healthcare system. Currently, health coaching for behavioural chance guided by continuous glucose data, wearable and lifestyle data is not available in primary and tertiary care management of diabetes. This parallel-group randomised controlled trial (RCT) aims to investigate the effectiveness of a novel multi-component model of care comprising interventions including the mobile app EMPOWER and smartwatch, health coaching, and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM).
