Filter by:Comparison between insulin pump treatment and multiple daily insulin injections in 38 children with type 1 diabetes4-16 years old. Outcome metabolic control, quality of life, impact of disease and cost effectiveness. We hypothesised that insulin pump treatment would give a better metabolic control and quality of life.
Berberine has showed effective in lowering blood sugar levels in db/db mice and anti-dyslipidemia in human. These findings have not been tested in a clinical trial. This randomized, double blind, placebo controlled and multi-center study has demonstrated that berberine is effective in lowering plasma glucose concentrations, reducing serum HbA1c and anti-dyslipidemia in type 2 diabetic patients with dyslipidemia.
The primary aim is to assess the effects of raising HDL cholesterol (the good type) with extended release niacin/laropiprant 2g (previously known as MK−0524A) versus matching placebo on the risk of heart attack or coronary death, stroke, or the need for arterial bypass procedures (revascularisation) in people with a history of circulatory problems. The secondary aim is to assess the effects of extended release niacin/laropiprant 2g daily on heart attack, coronary death, stroke, and revascularisation separately and to assess the effects on mortality both overall and in various categories of causes of death, and of the effects on major cardiovascular events in people with a history of different diseases at the beginning of the study.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Mitiglinide compared to Nateglinide for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.
This study will evaluate the time-course of the antiproteinuric effect of renin inhibition with Aliskiren in patients with Type 2 diabetes suffering from incipient and/or established nephropathy.
This 2 arm study will compare the safety, tolerability and efficacy of aleglitazar and Actos in patients with type 2 diabetes and symptomatic NYHA class II heart failure. Eligible patients will be randomized to receive either aleglitazar, titrated to an individual maximum tolerated dose up to 0.3mg p.o. daily, or Actos, titrated to an individual maximum tolerated dose up to 45mg p.o. daily, in addition to prescribed diabetes therapy where applicable. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
This 2 arm study will compare the effects of aleglitazar and Actos, added to preexisting oral antihyperglycemic therapy and/or diet and exercise, on renal function in patients with type 2 diabetes, and normal or mildly impaired renal function. Eligible patients will be randomized to receive either aleglitazar 0.6mg p.o. or Actos 45mg p.o. daily. Renal function and efficacy parameters will be assessed at intervals during the treatment period. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
This 4 arm study will evaluate the tolerability, efficacy and pharmacodynamics of different doses of a GLP-1 analogue in patients with type 2 diabetes who are treated with a stable dose of metformin. Patients will be randomized to receive either subcutaneous placebo, or subcutaneous GLP-1 analogue (at a dose of 20mg, or a starting dose of 20mg escalating to either 30mg or 40mg), weekly. All patients will continue on their existing metformin treatment regimen throughout the study. The anticipated time on study treatment is <3 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
Lipodystrophies represent a therapeutic challenge with regards to the management of the diabetes, insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridemia and fatty liver which frequently present in conjunction with significant adipose tissue loss. The purpose of the study and it's four subprojects is to examine the safety and efficacy of various novel interventions designed to improve or resolve the fatty liver, hypertriglyceridemia, and insulin resistance or diabetes that is seen in these patients.
