Filter by:Effective treatment of neuropathic foot pain in diabetic patients is very important to improve their quality of life. There are many medications used to reduce the diabetic neuropathic pain, including anticonvulsants, anti-depressants or analgesics, but none is universally satisfied. A few previous studies employing BOTOX® i.d. injection for control of trigeminal neuralgia, post-herpes neuralgia indicate that BOTOX® was effective in controlling neuropathic pain. Intradermal injection of BOTOX® to the dorsum of the foot in diabetics should be effective in controlling diabetes-associated polyneuropathic pain of the foot.
The primary objective of the present study is to assess changes of myocardial glucose uptake (MGU) during clamp studies using positron emission tomography (PET) scanning in patients with type 2 diabetes and idiopathic left ventricular dysfunction (LVD). The secondary objectives of the study are: assessment of changes of myocardial microcirculation at rest and during adenosine stimulation using PET; assessment of changes in myocardial structure and function evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); assessment of glycaemic control by measurement of HbA1c, fasting blood glucose and insulin levels; assessment of safety (adverse event profile, laboratory data).
The purpose of this study is to determine if the naturopathic Anti-Inflammatory Diet results in reduced inflammation and a better response by the immune system when compared to a standard diabetic diet based on the current American Diabetes Association guidelines.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether patients with diabetes due to Kir6.2 mutations can be treated with sulfonylurea medication rather than insulin, and if this is the case to investigate the mechanism for sulfonylurea response.
The overarching objective of this study is to develop an innovative strategy to address the problems of obesity and diabetes by promoting exercise adoption. An automated telephone intervention will be developed that can be used to enhance exercise adoption over a twelve month period in a population of overweight or obese veterans with Type 2 diabetes.
Insulin therapy requires monitoring and frequent review of glucose levels to optimize dosing. Effective presentation and data analysis are essential. We examined HbA1c changes using the OneTouch(R) UltraSmart(R) System (Test Group), an integrated glucose meter and electronic logbook, compared to established meters with paper logbooks (Control Group).
This study was designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AVANDIA (rosiglitazone) (8mg once daily) in African American and Hispanic patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. As microvascular and macrovascular disease are significant contributors to diabetes morbidity and mortality and previous studies suggest that the thiazolidinedione compounds could have potentially beneficial vascular effects, the effects of rosiglitazone therapy on serum parameters associated with endothelial dysfunction, vascular inflammation and impaired fibrinolysis were examined in this study. Improvement in these parameters suggests that rosiglitazone may provide an additional beneficial vascular effect, apart from its ability to improve glycemic control.
This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA) and Canada. This trial is designed to show the effect of treatment with liraglutide when added to existing rosiglitazone and metformin combination therapy and to compare it with the effects of therapy with rosiglitazone and metformin alone.
to demonstrate the efficacy of inhaled Technosphere/Insulin in combination with metformin versus combination metformin and a secretagogue
This trial is conducted in Africa, Asia, Europe and South America. This trial is designed to show the effect of treatment with liraglutide added to existing glimepiride and metformin combination therapy and to compare it with the effects of insulin glargine added to combination therapy of glimepiride and metformin.
