Filter by:The objective of the CARDIATEAM clinical study is to assess the uniqueness of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) relative to other forms of cardiomyopathy using unsupervised clustering approaches based on deep phenotyping (clinical, imaging and biological) information.
Diabetic cardiomyopathy is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. It is considered as a cardiac muscle disorder secondary to diabetes mellitus (DM). Certain studies show the clinical benefit of SGLT-s inhibitors on reducing cardiovascular outcomes amongst patients with type II DM that go beyond the correction of hyperglycemic perse. Thus an observational imaging study is proposed to identify mechanistic insights of the drug group over cardiovascular events.
The heart has the ability to respond to different patho-physiological conditions by adapting its energy metabolism. In diabetic subjects, the myocardium uses only fatty acids as a substrate. This is the cause of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). The activation of the transcription factor PPARβ/δ allows a good use of fatty acids. The staff have demonstrated that alpha lipoic acid (AαL), a molecule with antioxidant properties present in food supplements and in certain foods (broccoli, cabbage, offal...), induces the expression of PPARβ/δ in skeletal muscle and thus increases the activity of this transcription factor.
This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, 2-part study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AT-001 in adult patients (N=675) with Diabetic Cardiomyopathy at high risk of progression to overt heart failure.
Type 1 diabetes mellitus is a chronic autoimmune disease, associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. The development of cardiomyopathy in type 1 diabetes, independent of hypertension and coronary heart disease, is still controversial. A possible mechanism for diabetic cardiomyopathy is autonomic dysfunction. This study aims to evaluate cardiac function and structure, and to relate them with autonomic dysfunction in type 1 diabetes.
Diabetic cardiomyopathy( DCM) is a major complication of diabetes and is a common cardiovascular complication independent of coronary artery disease and hypertension．Trial to assess of myocardial injury in recipients of simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation by nuclear magnetic T２ mapping technology.
According to data of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), diabetes in general affects approximately 415 million people worldwide and this number is still increasing. Cardiovascular diseases, one of the major complications of diabetes, are the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in the diabetic population. One of the cardiovascular complications is diabetic cardiomyopathy, in which structural and functional changes occur in the heart impairing cardiac function. Exercise training has already proven the benefits on glycemic control in diabetes. This is also the case for the effects on cardiac function. However, as results are conflicting, it remains unclear which elements of exercise training should be focused on. For instance, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) is gaining interest as positive effects are already shown on glycemic control. Therefore, the potential of HIIT to improve cardiac function in diabetes should be investigated. Further on, the effects of exercise training on cardiac function are mainly investigated during rest by the use of transthoracic echocardiography. Therefore, as data are lacking, it remains unclear how the diabetic heart functions during exercise. The aim of the present study is to investigate the effects of different training modalities (e.g. HIIT) on heart function in diabetes both during rest and during exercise itself. Therefore, cardiac function will be evaluated by the use transthoracic (exercise) echocardiography. This will be combined by the evaluation of several biochemical parameters. The results will provide more insight in the pathology of diabetic cardiomyopathy as well as the potential of exercise training for this cardiovascular complication. Eventually, this research will contribute to the optimization of exercise programs for patients with diabetes.
The coverage of the diabetes is a multidisciplinary care, with practitioners' implication(hospital and liberal), and other medical and paramedical profession: doctor, pharmacist, male nurse, nutritionist, etc. In fact there is a real importance of link between hospital and general medecine outside. That's why the pharmacist's presence during the hospitalization seems to be a good alternative to make the link between hospital and the outside pharmacist where patient take his treatment. Hospital pharmacis proceed to a treatment conciliation at the entrance and at discharge. By this conciliation the aim of the study is to show and quantify the impact of pharmacist presence on therapeutic target .
Background: Heart failure is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in diabetes mellitus, but its pathophysiology is poorly understood. Aim: To determine the prevalence and determinants of subclinical cardiovascular dysfunction in adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Plan: 518 asymptomatic adults (aged 18-75 years) with T2D will undergo comprehensive evaluation of cardiac structure and function using cardiac MRI (CMR) and spectroscopy, echocardiography, CT coronary calcium scoring, exercise tolerance testing and blood sampling. 75 controls will undergo the same evaluation. Primary hypothesis: myocardial steatosis is an independent predictor of left ventricular global longitudinal strain. Secondary hypotheses: will assess whether CMR is more sensitive to detect early cardiac dysfunction than echocardiography and BNP, and whether cardiac dysfunction is related to peak oxygen consumption. Expected value of results: This study will reveal the prevalence and determinants of cardiac dysfunction in T2D, and could provide targets for novel therapies.
It has been suggested that mitochondrial dysfunction might play a role in the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. From animal studies, it has been suggested that an altered PPAR and PGC1 expression is involved in the reduced cardiac mitochondrial function, however human data on cardiac mitochondrial function and PPAR regulation is scarce. The latter is due to the fact that there is no validated measurement for assessing cardiac mitochondrial function non-invasively in vivo. It has been suggested that measuring PCr/ATP ratio with 31P-MRS in the heart reflects cardiac mitochondrial function. However, so far no direct validation of this method has been performed. The aim of this study will be to validate in vivo 31P-MRS with ex vivo measurements of mitochondrial function. To this end, the hypothesis is that in vivo 31P-MRS is a valid method for measuring cardiac mitochondrial function when compared with ex vivo mitochondrial respirometry.
