Filter by:Hypothesis: Nontraditional risk factors, such as inflammation, vitamin D deficiency, elevated PTH, insulin resistance, homocysteine, or uric acid, contribute to cardiovascular disease progression after kidney transplant. The purpose of this study is to evaluate which traditional and nontraditional cardiovascular disease risk factors best predict progression of cardiovascular disease (CVD) using carotid intima media thickness performed by ultrasound, in kidney transplant patients.
To study the effectiveness of sertraline (Zoloft) in treating depression in adults with diabetes. The study will also determine whether depressed diabetic patients who have successfully responded to sertraline (Zoloft) are more likely to have depression recur if the sertraline (Zoloft) is discontinued.
This study is designed to determine whether there is a relationship between the way insulin and blood vessels work. The difference in the interaction between Caucasian and African American adolescents will also be examined. This may play a role in the differing rates of heart disease and diabetes between the two groups.
About 22% of Canadians have high blood pressure, or hypertension. However, studies have shown that only 1 out of 5 people with hypertension have their blood pressure controlled. Diabetes is also an important risk factor for heart disease and stroke. About half of people with diabetes also have hypertension - a deadly combination. Studies have shown that only about 1 in 10 people with diabetes have their blood pressure controlled adequately - clearly something needs to be done to improve this. Heart disease, stroke, hypertension, and diabetes are conditions that occur in the community, so we need to explore innovative solutions that will work in the community. Pharmacists are well-placed in the community to help identify people with diabetes and hypertension. This has worked very well in previous studies in patients with high cholesterol levels. Pharmacists and nurses have complementary skills which, when working as a team, may help identify and better manage hypertension in people with diabetes. Our main objective is to test whether a community pharmacist and nurse team can improve blood pressure control in people with diabetes and hypertension.
To investigate the preliminary pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety and tolerability of GW823093 at doses of 15mg and 30mg given once daily for 7 days in Japanese Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of pregabalin, duloxetine and amitriptyline compared with placebo in reducing pain in diabetic patients as assessed by Brief Pain Inventory (BPI).
To assess the impact on glucose control by inhaled insulin alone or added to two oral anti-diabetic agents in patients with type 2 diabetes who are not well controlled on 2 oral anti-diabetic agents.
To investigate the dose-exposure-response relationship of insulin glulisine (HMR1964) after single subcutaneous injections of 0.075, 0.15 and 0.3 U/kg body weight with the euglycaemic clamp technique using the Biostator (TM).
This study will investigate the effect of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of GK Activator (2) in patients with type 2 diabetes, and will evaluate the effect of renal function on the safety of the drug. Patients will be assigned to treatment groups according to their renal function (normal, moderate renal impairment, or severe renal impairment). After a 1 week washout period from current oral anti-diabetic treatment, all patients will receive a single oral dose of 100mg GK Activator (2), and blood and urine samples will be taken up to 96h post-dose. The anticipated time on study treatment is <3 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of vildagliptin compared to voglibose in patients with type 2 diabetes. Please note this study is not being conducted in the United States.
