Filter by:The estimated prevalence of type 2 diabetes and prediabetes in Singapore will be approximately 20% and 25% respectively by the year 2035. Therefore, effective population based interventions are urgently warranted to halt this burden. Lifestyle intervention is the cornerstone of diabetes prevention and even remission. For example, dietary patterns such as the Mediterranean diet, Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet etc. have all been shown to reduce risk of type 2 diabetes incidence. Therefore, given the successful utility of various dietary patterns, this randomized controlled trial will investigate the effectiveness of a food based dietary intervention, within an Asian dietary context, using legumes, low glycemic index (GI) starches (i.e., rice, noodles etc.), healthier vegetable oil blend as well as herbs and spices to improve various markers metabolic health, including glucose homeostasis in individuals with prediabetes.
This is an interventional research study about clinical, psychosocial, and behavioral factors that impact weight loss, weight maintenance, and cardiovascular disease in socially disadvantaged persons.
The Early Detection Initiative for Pancreatic Cancer is a multi-center randomized controlled trial to determine if algorithm-based screening in patients with new onset hyperglycemia and diabetes can result in earlier detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
The aim of this study is to evaluate whether exposure to semaglutide influences the risk of pancreatic cancer in patients with type 2 diabetes. This is achieved by estimating the risk of pancreatic cancer associated with semaglutide use as compared to use of other non-incretin antidiabetic drugs used at a similar stage as Ozempic® or Rybelsus® in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. A multi-national, non-interventional study based on health care data from Denmark, Sweden, and Norway is conducted covering the period 2018-2023. A cohort study design is used comparing new users of semaglutide with new users of other antidiabetic drugs used at a similar stage as Ozempic® or Rybelsus® in the treatment of type 2 diabetes (active comparators). Active comparators will include the following non-incretin antidiabetic agents: sulphonylureas, sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors, and insulin subdivided into i) basal insulin only and ii) basal + bolus insulin or premix insulin. Propensity scores are used to match new users of semaglutide with new users of active comparators. National prescription-, cancer- and patient registries are used to identify exposure to antidiabetic agents, pancreatic cancer cases, and covariates to be used in propensity score matching. This study is a post-authorisation safety study (PASS).
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of long-term treatment with Ozempic® in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. People will get Ozempic® as prescribed by their doctor. People will be in this study about 3 years. People above the age of 18 will be asked to fill in the quality of life (QOL) questionnaire (the QOL questionnaire is for the assessment of the influence of diabetes treatment on people's life). There is a possibility that people's blood sample would be provided to Novo Nordisk from their doctors in case of severe allergic reaction that might be caused by Ozempic®.
Patients being assessed for Kidney Pancreas transplantation often have pre-existing co-morbid disease that contributes to structural cardiac and vascular disease. There is no consensus on optimal pre-listing cardiac assessment to reliably minimize risk of peri-operative cardiac events. Functional status using the cardio-pulmonary exercise test (CPET) has been used in cardiac and abdominal surgery, including abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair and kidney transplantation, but high risk patients with diabetes are often lacking from these studies. This study will investigate the correlation between function, measures using CPET and standard cardiac assessment, and determine the variation in usual measures of anaerobic threshold and VO2 max in this population.
To determine the effectiveness of a 7-day course of an oral, prophylactic antibiotic on the incidence of periprosthetic joint infection and wound complications following primary total hip and knee arthroplasty in a high-risk patient population.
This is a three-arm, parallel randomized trial study that will assess the impact of home delivery of medically-tailored meals (MTM) to community-dwelling older adults living with diabetes mellitus type 2 on measurements of diabetes control, mental health, and other exploratory outcomes such as healthcare use.
Systematic continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is commonly provided as a treatment option to patients with diabetes in ambulatory care settings yet is rarely provided during hospitalization. CGM of inpatients has the potential to be the care delivery innovation that is feasible, cost effective and can improve glucose control, especially by reducing hypoglycemic events. Studies of CGM use in the ICU setting have been found to be helpful for reducing hypoglycemia in some studies while less so in others, however, these studies were performed with earlier generation glucose monitoring devices(5). ICU studies have confirmed accuracy of CGM measurements compared with capillary glucose even in settings with use of vasopressors and large-volume resuscitation. A limited number of studies have evaluated glycemic outcomes in the inpatient non-ICU setting. Studies of non-ICU patients (6-10) are limited by very small sample size, short study duration, and use of older CGM devices. There is, therefore, a critical need to systematically investigate the use of CGM in the inpatient care of patients with diabetes mellitus who are receiving care in a hospital setting that is typical of inpatient care.
Autonomic neuropathy is a common complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Symptoms from cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy include, dizziness, orthostatic hypotension and insufficient heart rate and blood pressure (BP) regulation during physical exertion. The degree of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy is most commonly measured as cardiac autonomic neuropathy based on at least two abnormal cardiac reflex tests, which primarily measures parasympathetic indices of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Few measures are available for quantifying the sympathetic/adrenergic branch of the ANS. Circadian changes in BP is a documented measure of BP variability, regulated centrally by a multitude of centers. A growing number of studies indicate that a diminished BP variability is associated with increased cardiovascular risk and injury. The ANS plays a pivotal role in the execution of these circadian BP changes, mainly through sympathetic adrenergic nerve fibers Few studies have investigated the applicability of 24-hour indices as predictor for autonomic adrenergic dysfunction. No previous studies have investigated the association between clinical markers of adrenergic function, and 24-hour blood pressure indices in type 2 diabetes.
