Filter by:The purpose of the study is to compare three methods of achieving weight loss in primary care medical practice. The study will be conducted in six primary care practices. Weight management will be provided to a total of 390 obese patients (who have 2 or more components of the metabolic syndrome) by their own primary care providers, in conjunction with the practices' auxiliary health professionals, including medical assistants.
The purpose of the study is to review incidences of mild, moderate, and severe hypoglycemia in preoperative care units, operating rooms, and postanesthesia care units and analyze associated conditions and treatment.
The purpose of the study is to learn whether or not cocoa has a beneficial effect on blood flow to the brain in older subjects with diabetes mellitus or hypertension (high blood pressure). We hypothesize that cocoa, which contains flavanols (a type of polyphenol), may help to promote blood flow to the brain in older people with diabetes or hypertension.
This study is conducted in Europe, North America and Asia. The aim of this observational study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness while using Levemir® once daily in combination with oral antidiabetic drugs in type 2 diabetics during 24 weeks under normal clinical practice. Data from the NN304-3573 study (NCT00740519) will be pooled with data from this study and reported together in the final study report for this study.
This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the pharmacodynamics (i.e. the glucose-lowering effect of the study medication over the entire observation phase from the time of administration and the efficacy period) and the pharmacokinetics (i.e. amount of the study insulin that can be determined in the blood) of a treatment with biphasic insulin aspart 30 (BiAsp 30) administered once, twice or thrice daily and biphasic human insulin 30 administered once daily in type 2 diabetic subjects
This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the 24-hour pharmacodynamics/ pharmacokinetics of biphasic insulin aspart 30 (BiAsp 30) thrice daily treatment with that of a basal-bolus treatment with insulin glargine and insulin glulisine in type 2 diabetic subjects. Pharmacodynamics is the glucose-lowering effect of the study medication over the entire observation phase from the time of administration and the efficacy period while the pharmacokinetics is the amount of the study insulin that can be determined in the blood.
The purpose of this study is to determine if a continuing medical education (CME) program can change primary care providers' use of insulin therapy - their confidence in selecting doses and engagement of patients in the decision making as to whether to initiate insulin therapy.
Older persons with diabetes have a harder time maintaining blood pressure when standing up. When blood pressure drops when standing up, fainting may occur. This study will see how regular exercise can improve the ability of the body to keep blood pressure up when standing. We want to see how this improvement varies with a home-based walking program.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a real-time continuous glucose monitoring system is able to improve HbA1c in patients suffering from type 1 diabetes compared to conventional finger prick glucose measurements. In addition it will investigate whether number of episodes with serious hypoglycemia is changed in those same patients, and whether quality of life (health status and treatment satisfaction) increases.
This 2 arm study will assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of taspoglutide compared to placebo in obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus inadequately controlled with metformin monotherapy. Patients will be randomized to receive taspoglutide (10mg sc once weekly for 4 weeks followed by 20mg once weekly) or placebo sc, in addition to their prescribed, pre-existing metformin therapy.After the first 24 weeks, patients on placebo will be switched to taspoglutide 20mg once weekly (after 4 weeks on taspoglutide 10mg once weekly) The anticipated time on study treatment is 12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
