Filter by:The current protocol plans to enroll participants with youth-onset Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) as well as obese and lean controls from the Renal-HEIR - Renal Hemodynamics, Energetics and Insulin Resistance in Youth Onset Type 2 Diabetes Study (n=100) [COMIRB #16-1752] in a prospective investigation that seeks to 1) define the changes in kidney function by gold standard techniques and energetics by functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in adolescents with and without T2D as they transition to young adulthood; 2) quantify kidney oxidative metabolism by 11C-acetate Positron Emission Tomography (PET) in a subset of participants who are ≥18 years of age with youth-onset T2D and/or obesity; 3) determine peripheral arterial stiffness by SphygmoCor. Mechanistic insight will be provided by transcriptomic analyses of repeat biopsies 3-years after their initial biopsy for eligible participants with youth-onset T2D, as well as molecular analysis of tissue obtained from J-wire endovascular biopsies. This study will also leverage this well-characterized cohort of youths to define youth-onset T2D-related changes in brain morphology and function by structural MRI and resting-state functional MRI and through the assessment of cognitive function (fluid and crystallized intelligence) using the NIH Toolbox Cognitive Battery (NIHTB-CB), as an exploratory objective. All enrollees in Renal-HEIR have consented to be contacted for future research opportunities.
The purpose of the study is to collect information on how Rybelsus® works in people with type 2 diabetes and to see if Rybelsus® can lower their blood sugar levels. Participants will get Rybelsus® as prescribed to them by the study doctor. The study will last for about 8-10 months. Participants will be asked to complete a questionnaire about how they take their Rybelsus® tablets. Participants will complete this questionnaire during their normally scheduled visit with the study doctor.

This study will assess the implementation of a glucose management clinical decision support tool. The specific objective is to determine if supplementing the existing glucose check reminder with a best practice advisory (BPA), an actionable insulin dosing calculator, providers will be influenced to improve the control of hyperglycemia.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) compared to placebo on biomarkers of oxidative stress, inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who are treated with metformin but did not meet the target HbA1C < 7%.
The aim of TRANSLATE is to implement genetic information directly into patient care to improve diagnosis and treatment of non-autoimmune diabetes. This project is the first large-scale implementation of systematic genetic testing within a common, non-communicable, chronic disease in Denmark, and will spearhead efforts to advance personalized medicine in Denmark. The project will contribute to establishing technology, workflow, and evidence on how to implement and communicate actionable genetic information to clinicians and patients in a generalized format. These developments are pivotal for personalized medicine to reach broader clinical application.
Background: The disease burden of hypertension(HTN) and type 2 diabetes mellitus(DM) is rising rapidly in China.Comprehensive interventions(Implementation strategies for providers and interventions for patients) are critical to strengthen primary health care systems and address the burden of multiple comorbidities. In order to promote equal access to health services and narrow the gap in population health, China has launched the national Essential Public Health Services Equity Programme (EPHSEP) nationwide. EPHSEP contains guidelines for health management services for HTN and type 2 DM. The program has been in operation for 10 years. However, the management of HTN and type 2 DM in China is far from satisfactory. The purpose of this study is to understand current control and management situation of HTN and type 2 DM, investigate the barriers and facilitators in the implementation of HTN and type 2 DM service delivery standards, propose feasible implementation strategies,implement in certain areas,and to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions and the performance and impact of implementation strategies. Methods: Based on previous work,four community health service centres and four township health centres will be selected in West Coast District of Qingdao city of Shandong province,Suzhou City of Jiangsu province, Changsha city of Hunan province and Luohe city of Henan Province.In each of the four provinces,one community health service center and one township health center will be selected.Two community health service centres and two township health centres will be selected as the intervention groups, and the other community health service centres and township health centres will be selected as the control groups. The study will be divided into three phases: Phase 1, 2 and 3. Phase 1 and phase 2 cross-sectional studies are the basis for phase 3 intervention studies. Phase 1 will be conducted from March 2022 to April 2022.In phase 1, a quantitative questionnaire survey will be conducted among 5464 HTN and 7040 type 2 DM patients in 8 community health service centers to obtain the data of awareness rate, screening rate, diagnosis rate, treatment rate, control rate and management service of hypertension and type 2 diabetes patients,so as to understand current control and management situation of HTN and type 2 DM. Phase 2 will be conducted in April 2022. In phase 2, about 64 medical staff and related managers providing HTN and type 2 DM health management services and 80 patients with HTN and type 2 DM in 8 community health service centers will be investigated through qualitative interviews,so as to investigate the barriers and facilitators in the implementation of HTN and type 2 DM service delivery standards and to propose feasible implementation strategies. Phase 3 will be conducted a mixed-methods type 2 hybrid effectiveness-implementation study from May 2022 to January 2023. Interventions are divided into four levels through a cascading model of screening, diagnosis, treatment, and control. Implementation strategies are divided into 6 categories according to Implementation Mapping: Capacity-building strategies（Recruit, designate, and train for leadership; Work with educational institutions), Supervision(Provide clinical supervision), Integration strategies(Remind clinicians; Use data warehousing techniques), Implementation process Strategies(Identify and prepare champions; Identify early adopters; Inform local opinion leaders; Involve patients/consumers and family members; Obtain and use patients/consumers and family feedback), Dissemination strategies(Make training dynamic), Scale-up strategies(Use train-the-trainer strategies;Place innovation on fee for service lists/formularies). We will adopt between site design to select 4（2*2 ）community health service centers and 4（2*2）township health centers, among which 2 community health service centers and 2 township health centers will implement the strategy, while the other selected sites will not implement the strategy. The 2*2 community health service centers and 2*2 township health centers will be divided into group matching control and self pre- and post-control. In phase 3, 2280 patients with HTN and 2656 patients with type 2 DM will be surveyed by quantitative questionnaire, and about 64 medical staff and related managers providing HTN and type 2 DM health management services will be surveyed by qualitative interview. This is to implement improved implementation strategies and to assess the effectiveness of interventions and the performance and impact of implementation strategies.
A total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) can be performed for a number of benign indications, such as chronic pancreatitis. In the current standard of treatment, after non-invasive, endoscopic efforts and other surgical options to relieve the pain, a total pancreatectomy is a last resort option. The pancreas is surgically removed during this procedure. Afterwards, the patient will have diabetes mellitus that is usually difficult to control with dependency on exogenous insulin administration. In TPIAT, a total pancreatectomy is followed by islet isolation from the resected pancreas and autotransplantation of these islets into the liver by means of a transhepatic intraportal islet infusion. Depending on the number and quality of islets, TPIAT may lead to full islet function so that no anti-hyperglycemic therapy is necessary or to partial islet function necessitating anti-hyperglycemic therapy. This can be only oral agents with reasonable islet function or complex insulin regimes with poor islet function. However, even with partial Islet function, glycemic control is easier with a lower risk of hypoglycemic events and diabetes-related complications, and an overall improvement of quality of life. In this cohort, the endocrine function and glycemic variability will be monitored over time (up to 15 years). Additionally, pain scores, pain perception and central sensitization, quality of life, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency and diabetes-related stress will be monitored.
The purpose of this study is to address physical inactivity in rural populations in Pennsylvania.
Despite steady increases in obesity prevalence, the more than 12 million obese U.S. adults with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and severe obesity encounter a number of barriers to adopting effective surgical and pharmaceutical treatments, including: (a) both patients and primary care clinicians frequently underestimate the effectiveness and potential benefits of obesity treatments; and (b) both patients and clinicians typically lack access to evidence-based estimates of the patient-specific potential benefits and risks of appropriate obesity treatment options. This project addresses these important obstacles to evidence-based obesity care by providing accurate, patient-specific estimates of benefits and risks of various obesity treatment options to inform shared decision making about obesity treatment. In this project the study team will implement a scalable, web-based point-of-care decision-support intervention in primary care that provides patient-specific estimates of obesity treatment benefits and risks in a randomized trial in 40 primary care clinics with 15,810 eligible patients, and assess intervention impact on (i) appropriate active management of obesity in eligible patients, (ii) weight trajectories, and (iii) patient and clinician satisfaction with the decision support intervention.
