Filter by:The aim of the Check@Home consortium is to set up a roadmap and infrastructure for a program to early detect atrial fibrillation and chronic kidney disease in the general population. This will be a population-based screening with a phased implementation and an iterative design in four regions in the Netherlands (Breda, Utrecht, Arnhem, Eindhoven). In total, a random sample of 160,000 people (aged 50-75 years) will be invited to participate in the study and another random sample of 160,000 people with the same characteristics will be included in the control group in which no screening will be offered. The overall screening program will consist of three phases: a home-based testing phase, diagnostic screening phase, and a treatment phase: - Phase 1: Subjects will be invited for a home-based screening that includes home-based testing; urine collection for detection of elevated albuminuria, and a heart rhythm measurement using a smartphone app for detection of atrial fibrillation. - Phase 2: Depending on the results on these home-based tests, subjects will be invited for further screening in a diagnostic screening facility. During this visit, physical data will be collected (height, weight, waist circumference, blood pressure, heart rhythm), blood will be drawn, and urine will be collected for the assessment of parameters that are indicative of a cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, type 2 diabetes or their risk factors. Participants will receive a questionnaire that include questions on demographics, educational level, disease history, medication use, health literacy, and quality of life. - Phase 3: Based on the results of the diagnostic screening, participants may be referred to their general practitioner for appropriate treatment (lifestyle advice/medication) according to the prevailing guidelines. The primary study outcomes are: Overall effectiveness of population based screening on atrial fibrillation and chronic kidney disease in subjects aged 50-75 years, based on: - Participation rate of different screening strategies and phases; - Yield of the screening (number of subjects with (newly) diagnosed disease and risk factors); - Effectiveness of the atrial fibrillation screening, compared with standard care, based on the incidence of ischemic stroke); - Effectiveness of the albuminuria screening, compared with standard care, based on the incidence of kidney failure events and Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (MACE).
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia, weight loss, and cardio-metabolic complications. T2DM develops due to the progression of insulin resistance (IR), impairment of insulin insensitivity, and failure of the pancreatic β-cells to release sufficient amount of insulin in response to glucose burden
This study seeks to address the multifaceted challenges posed by food disparities and their negative consequences on health outcomes, via a comprehensive community health intervention program. Study objectives include: 1. To describe the social-demographic and clinical factors associated with food insecurity in the hospitalized diabetic population. 2. To design, implement and evaluate a nutrition program targeting the hospitalized diabetic population. The investigators will prospectively randomize the target population into either a nutrition program (Intervention), or state-of-art standard of care (SOC) in a 4:1 ratio. Participants in the intervention group will be provided the following two resources in addition to SOC: 1) Enhanced access to nutritious food (twice daily meal delivery up to 90 days post-discharge) 2) Education at discharge and continuing outreach to enhance knowledge for better diet and food options. 3. To enhance community engagement and develop a systematic implementation plan for long-term roll-out of the nutrition program.
This is a prospective randomized, double-blinded, parallel design study to evaluate the benefits of long-term consumption of two experimental blends of liquid supplements.
The purpose of the CLEAR study is to determine the effect on counterregulatory responses (CRR) of intervening (by attempting to strictly avoid hypoglycemia) to improve awareness of hypoglycemic symptoms among adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who have impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH). IAH affects 20-25% of adults with T1D, and rises with increasing duration of T1D.
The Cohort on Plant-based Diets (COPLANT) study is a multi-centre cohort study that starts baseline recruitment from 2024 to 2027 with approximately 6,000 participants in Germany and Austria. The COPLANT study focuses on vegan (no animal products), vegetarian (no meat and fish, but dairy products and eggs), pescetarian (no meat, but fish) and omnivorous (mixed diet including all possible animal products) diets. The aim of the COPLANT study is to gain new insights on health benefits and risks as well as social, ecological and economic effects of different plant-based diets in comparison to a mixed diet. In addition to a detailed dietary survey using an app adapted to the needs of this study, the baseline examination includes measurements of body composition, bone health, cardiovascular risk factors, diabetes risk, contaminants and lifestyle. For the basic laboratory program, fasting blood, 24-hour urine collection and a stool sample are taken from all study participants. Furthermore, specific aspects of dietary behavior, physical activity and other lifestyle factors are collected via questionnaires. Follow-up studies are planned at intervals of 5, 10 and 20 years after the baseline visit.
This phase study will use a randomized trial method to evaluate the performance of the ECAM educational app in the promotion of CAM health literacy and communication among patients with diabetes.
The goal of this randomised controlled trial to investigate the effect of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) compared to standard point-of-care (POC) blood glucose measurements in surgical patients with diabetes in patients. The main question it aims to answer is: • Can the use of the CGM device Dexcom G7 with real-time alerts on dysglycaemia increase the time in range for glucose levels as compared with standard monitoring with point-of-care blood glucose in surgical patients with diabetes? Participants will be asked to wear a CGM device (Dexcom G7, Dexcom Inc.) during their stay in the hospital. For patients in the intervention group, deviations of glucose levels will provide the nursing staff with alerts. All patients will receive standard care of their diabetes. The CGM device will be worn for up to 10 days or until discharge.
The Aim of this interventional study in to assess the effect of the use of a smartpen connected by an APP to continuous glucose sensors in a cohort of diabetic adolescents in not good metabolic control. Primary endpoint: time in range Secondary endpoints: other glucometrics, Hba1c, treatment satisfaction.
The objective of this observational study is to investigate and validate the utility of high-frame-rate ultrasound imaging technology for dynamic observation of the blood perfusion process at the site of ulcer wounds in real-time, focusing on patients with Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFU). The primary research questions it seeks to address are as follows: - What are the dynamic characteristics of vascular dynamics at the site of ulcer wounds in patients with DFU under high-frame-rate ultrasound imaging? - Is High-Frequency Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound (H-CEUS) technology feasible for effectively visualizing the microcirculation of ulcer wounds in patients with DFU? Participants will Undergo high-frame-rate ultrasound imaging for real-time observation of blood perfusion dynamics at the site of ulcer wounds. Researchers will compare ulcerated sites with normal sites to see whether the use of High-Frequency Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound (H-CEUS) has any discernible impact on the visualization of microcirculation in ulcer wounds.
