Filter by:This study has been set up within the framework of the INNODIA network. INNODIA is a global partnership between 31 academic institutions, 6 industrial partners, a small sized enterprise and 2 patient organizations, bringing their knowledge and experience together with one common goal: "To fight type 1 diabetes". (www.innodia.eu) The overall aim of INNODIA is to advance in a decisive way how to predict, stage, evaluate and prevent the onset and progression of type 1 diabetes (T1D). For this, INNODIA has established a comprehensive and interdisciplinary network of clinical and basic scientists, who are leading experts in the field of T1D research in Europe and UK (United Kingdom), with complementary expertise from the areas of immunology, Beta-cell biology, biomarker research and T1D therapy, joining forces in a coordinated fashion with industry partners and two foundations, as well as with all major stakeholders in the process, including regulatory bodies and patients with T1D and their families.
In the previous cohort studies focused on diabetes in China, there were few studies on elderly patients with diabetes. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to investigate the prevalence, management and nutritional status of elderly diabetic patients aged ≥65 years in Shanghai and Suzhou communities, and record the occurrence of endpoint events.
There is a fundamental gap in understanding the maternal and neonatal effects of antenatal corticosteroid (ACS) administration in women with threatened preterm birth (PTB) who have diabetes. Since the initial discovery of ACS for neonatal benefit in 1972, more than 40 randomized controlled trials have been performed evaluating its efficacy. However, none of these trials have included women with T2DM, and there is limited data among women with gestational diabetes. While ACS have been shown to reduce neonatal morbidity associated with PTB in non-diabetic women, the side effects of ACS (maternal hyperglycemia and fetal hyperinsulinemia) may mitigate the neonatal benefit of ACS in women with diabetes. Before neonatal benefit of ACS can be evaluated in this population, the first step is to optimize maternal glycemic control after ACS. Previous studies evaluating maternal hyperglycemia after ACS have been limited by small sample size, retrospective study design, or insufficient glucose data. Use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in a randomized clinical trial provides a unique opportunity to overcome these challenges. Our long-term goal is to improve maternal and child health among women with diabetes as an independently funded clinical researcher. The research objectives of this proposal are to test the efficacy of three treatment strategies at achieving maternal glycemic control after ACS and evaluate the association between maternal glycemic control and neonatal outcomes. Our central hypothesis is that treatment with a continuous insulin infusion will improve maternal glycemic control, which is key to improving neonatal outcomes, but at the cost of less patient satisfaction and more health resource utilization. This hypothesis will be tested by pursuing the following specific aims: 1) Test the efficacy of three treatment strategies (addition of sliding scale insulin, up-titration of home insulin, and continuous insulin infusion) at achieving maternal glycemic control after ACS and 2) Quantify the association between maternal glycemic control after ACS and neonatal morbidity. Completion of these aims will determine the optimal strategy to achieve maternal glycemic control after ACS and inform a larger, multicenter trial to improve neonatal outcomes among women with diabetes and threatened PTB.
Adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes (age 13-18 years, T1D duration >6 months managed on insulin) and poor glycemic control will wear a blinded CGM to obtain baseline data. After assuring adherence to CGM wear, participants will receive a non-blinded CGM and will share their blood glucose levels with the study team. Clinical personnel will remotely monitor patients in real-time for 3 months and communicate regularly over secure text messaging with participants and their parents. Following active remote monitoring, the participants will wear a non-blinded CGM for 3 months. Primary outcome assessment will be the change in HbA1c after 3 months of real-time remote continuous glucose monitoring.
The purpose of this study is to determine if Flash glucose monitoring system improves glycemic control in adults with new-onset type 2 diabetes
The purpose of SCADIAB is to assess the real-life efficiency of systematic screening for ischemic heart disease in T2DM patients at very high cardiovascular risk, without known coronary heart disease, from the databases of the National Health Data System (SNDS).
The incidence of diabetes is increasing globally, including within Europe. There is an estimated 20million diabetic patients in Europe, which is likely to increase, thereby adding to societal demands on European health services. Diabetic patients are more likely to have surgical interventions than the general population. There are plausible pathophysiology and clinical mechanisms that diabetics are at increased risk of postoperative complications. When postoperative complications occur in the general population, they increase mortality or increase risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (Myocardial Infarction, Cerebrovascular Accident, Pulmonary embolism) at 30-days and up to one year later. In addition, diabetes is an independent risk factor for surgical site infections. There is variation in practice guidelines in different countries in the perioperative management of diabetic patients undergoing major surgery, but this has not been documented on a large scale. Given the multiplicity of guidelines and differing recommendations, it is unsurprising that variability of 'real-world' clinical practice with regard to perioperative management of oral antihyperglycemic medications and insulin therapy has been noted in audits such as the National Confidential Enquiry into Patient Outcome and Death (NCEPOD). Further, although it is recognised that diabetic patients are at increased risk of postoperative complications, this has not been recently evaluated, especially in light of ongoing developments in perioperative care, such as Enhanced Recovery Programmes. While a quality improvement intervention study has shown that maintaining tight preoperative glycaemic control improves postoperative glycaemic control, it is not known if this reduces postoperative morbidity overall. Further, whether certain anaesthetic techniques may be associated with better or worse outcomes after major non-cardiac surgery is unknown.
Diabetes Mellitus type 2 (T2DM) is one of the most frequent metabolic diseases worldwide. It is expected that in 2035 around 600 million people will suffer from the disease. A recent systematic review has estimated that the direct annual cost of Diabetes worldwide treatments and care is over $ 827 billion and has been independently associated with nosocomial complications, thrombosis-like infections and prolonged admissions. In addition, it is estimated that up to 90% of patients in acute hospitals require a peripheral venous catheter which are associated at the same time with mechanical, infectious and thrombotic acute complications. Recently the emergence of new medium-sized peripheral devices (Midline®) and new peripheral central venous access catheters (PICC), which are more biocompatible, are opening new clinical possibilities with the aim of improving safety and comfort during treatment time and the reduction of associated complications. With all this, a observational case-control study has been proposed in order to analyze the impact of T2DM disease and its associated complications on the patient requiring peripheral venous access. Furthermore investigators will consider if these new peripheral devices can be a remarkable benefit for these patients. This study will be carried out at the Vall d'Hebron University Hospital in Barcelona, Spain
Diabetic retinopathy affects over one third of all people with diabetes and is one of the leading causes of vision loss. The management of diabetes and its complications should include screening for diabetic retinopathy. A randomised trial is therefore needed of the use of a simple and widely practicable approach to explore the integration of eye care in managing diabetes. The trial is designed as a randomised, controlled, superiority trial. The aim is to explore the effectiveness of ophthalmologist-delivered health education on top of routine community care on blood glucose and eye-related clinical outcomes in type 2 diabetic patients at risk for diabetic retinopathy.
This study is designed to evaluate the feasibility of exercise to reverse prediabetes after transplantation to prevent Posttransplantation Diabetes Mellitus (PTDM).
