Filter by:The goal of our research program is to successfully translate empirical knowledge regarding diabetes treatment and management into sustainable clinical practice. The study hypothesis is that implementation of a multicomponent intervention will result in meaningful improvement in clinical performance measures at the clinic that include average A1c (Hemoglobin A1c), average systolic blood pressure, and national clinical performance measures at a reasonable cost to the health system.
Subjects with impaired glucose tolerance will be randomized to receive pioglitazone or metformin for 10 weeks. Measurements of insulin sensitivity, body composition, glucose tolerance, and muscle lipid accumulation will be performed. Adipose tissue and muscle biopsies are performed. The goal of the study is to determine whether the lipotoxiciy of impaired glucose tolerance is ameliorated by pioglitazone.
This study compares two types of diet interventions: a low carbohydrate ketogenic diet (Atkins) and a low-fat diet combined with a medication (Orlistat).
In this study we tested the hypothesis that an increase in protein content of the diet will result in an increase in the 24-hour integrated circulating growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) concentrations and an increase in lean body mass in people with untreated type 2 diabetes.
This is a multicenter, open-label extension study designed to examine the long-term safety of pramlintide treatment in subjects with type 1 diabetes who have successfully completed treatment in the parent study 137-150.
The purpose of this clinical study is to determine the safety and efficacy of an investigational drug in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus.
To understand the complex, longitudinal relations between physical fitness, physical activity, body mass and composition and fat distribution, and genetic factors and their independent or interactive effects on the development of obesity, the metabolic syndrome, and sub-clinical cardiovascular disease.
This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of insulin detemir in combination with insulin aspart is safe and at least as effective as insulin glargine in combination with insulin aspart for the control of blood glucose in patients with Type 2 diabetes.
Many people with type 2 diabetes cannot maintain target blood glucose levels when taking a single oral drug. The purpose of this study is to assess the long term safety and effectiveness of vildagliptin, an unapproved drug, compared to that of glimepiride in lowering overall blood glucose levels when added to metformin in people with type 2 diabetes not at target blood glucose levels on metformin alone.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether exercise has further beneficial effects on improving cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, high cholesterol level or diabetes mellitus, when added to the standard program of health check followed by life style recommendations.
