Filter by:The aim of this study is to evaluate the variations in pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of rapid-acting insulin analogs when given as a bolus by subcutaneous insulin infusion pump as typically encountered in the care of children with type 1 diabetes. The specific factors under investigation are: - the effects of puberty - type of insulin analog - site of catheter insertion - and age of catheter
The efficacy of low dose aspirin appears to be substantially lower in diabetic patients, compared to patients without diabetes. We will perform an observational study where we follow up patients with uncontrolled type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and low response to aspirin (Aspirin Resistance), during a period of 6 months in the diabetic clinic. Our hypothesis is that glucose control will improve the response to aspirin in those patients.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of exercise during pregnancy upon maternal metabolism, including weight gain, fat distribution, and levels of glucose and cholesterol. We will also conduct a pilot study to examine the feasibility of studying the health of infants born to women in this study.
This clinical trial is designed to provide additional information on the safety and tolerability of vildagliptin (50 mg once daily (qd)) when used in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and moderate or severe renal insufficiency.
The purpose of this research is to determine if meeting in a group with other subjects with diabetes can reduce barriers to starting insulin.
To determine the effect on erectile function in a population of type 2 diabetic men with erectile dysfunction who have undergone the following treatment regimen: pre-treatment with a daily dose of double-blind sildenafil versus placebo for 4 weeks (Phase I) followed by an as-needed, flexible-dose, open-label treatment phase with sildenafil for 12 weeks (Phase II). To assess safety and tolerability of this dosing regimen and to investigate its effects on endothelial function and subject's responses to the Self-Esteem And Relationship (SEAR) questionnaire.
This randomized, parallel study compares 2 groups of type 2 non-insulin treated (NIT) diabetes patients using the Accu-Chek Aviva glucometers. One group (Intensive Group) will perform a 4-point daily glucose monitoring profile 3 times a week Monnier-based. These patients will also receive specific glycemic targets and suggestions on how to reach them following lifestyle recommendations. At the same time, investigators will use SMBG results, downloaded from glucometers, to improve patients' therapy. The second group (Control Group), will follow the SMBG standard care usually adopted in their centers. To be eligible, patients do not to have performed a previous intensive SMBG management (the execution of SMBG measurements used to modify lifestyle, diet or physical activity, in a systematic/structured manner and/or to manage therapeutic approach). The anticipated duration of the trial is 12 months, and the target sample size is 1000 individuals.
Patient self-efficacy, or confidence in one's ability to take the necessary steps to achieve a goal, has been shown to influence a number of important health behaviors and outcomes. However, current ways of increasing patient self-efficacy are time and labor intensive and occur away from doctor visits, where most health care is delivered. We developed, and are testing in a study the effectiveness of a new way of teaching doctors how to talk to patients during office visits in a way that will boost their patients' self-efficacy for changing important health behaviors.
To estimate the efficacy of combination therapy with Lantus plus Amaryl in controlling blood glucose in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes having failed OAD therapy, and document the ability to preserve the endocrine pancreatic function with Lantus plus Amaryl combination therapy
