Filter by:The objective and the purpose of the trial is to: assess the efficacy of Pregabalin Krka and Dulsevia® in patients with PDPN, investigate the effect of Pregabalin Krka and Dulsevia® on pain and on quality of life (QOL), depression symptoms, cognitive functions, sleep quality and daytime sleepiness and assess the safety of Pregabalin Krka and Dulsevia® in patients with PDPN. During the 3 months (12 weeks) 5 visits and 2 phone calls are planned. After the ICF signature and before therapy is allocated, a screening procedure is carried out to verify eligibility: laboratory analyses (concentrations of TSH, vitamin B12, folic acid, glucose, HbA1c, pregnancy test for women of childbearing potential), assessment of PDPN (with questionnaire DN4), assessment of cognition (with questionnaire MoCA), habits, medical history (medical/surgical history and concomitant diseases, previous and/or existing therapy of pain in PDPN, concomitant medications) with measurements and evaluation of pain according to VAS. On Visit 2 investigator checks the results of laboratory tests, of pregnancy test, measures vital signs, evaluates pain in PDPN according to VAS, checks previous analgesic therapy and concomitant medications. If patient meets all inclusion and exclusion criteria, he/she is eligible and will be randomly assigned (automatically through electronic version of case report form (eCRF) into two therapy groups (treatment arms) - tretament with Pregabalin Krka OR treatment with Dulsevia®. Investigator performs assessments of: QoL, sleep quality and daytime sleepiness, depression and adverse events. At Visit 3, compliance monitoring is done, pain intensity in PDPN by VAS is evaluated, concomitant therapy is checked, vital signs are measured, doses of IMP are adjusted and adverse events assessment are carried out. At Visit 4, pregnancy test for women of childbearing potential and compliance monitoring are carried out; concomitant medications are checked, vital signs are measured, pain intensity in PDPN by VAS is evaluated, IMP are adjusted and assessment of adverse events is carried out. At Visit 5 investigator performs again assessments of: QoL, sleep quality and daytime sleepiness, depression, cognition and PDPN. Evaluation of the pain intensity in PDPN by VAS and assessment of the adverse events should be performed. Pregnancy test for women of childbearing potential is carried out.
The study aims to compare the effectiveness and tolerability of using lidocaine 5% patch to 8% capsaicin patch in patients with diabetic neuropathy. Assessment of analgesic effectiveness was assessed by observing any change in the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) score, average daily pain Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) for painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy (BPI-DPN Q4) and Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC). Assessment of capsaicin and lidocaine safety and identifying treatment adverse effects were secondary endpoints in this study

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.
Background: Inhibiting the sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) has been observed to reduce risk of cardiovascular events and kidney failure in type 2 diabetes. The exact mechanisms of the beneficial effects of SGLT2 inhibition (SGLT2i) are still unknown. Kidney hypoxia has been demonstrated in diabetic kidney disease and SGLT2i is thought to relieve hypoxia in the kidneys. Mitochondrial dysfunction and autonomic dysfunction might also contribute to kidney hypoxia. Objective: The primary aim of the study is to assess the acute effects of SGLT2 inhibition on parameters reflecting oxygenation and oxygen consumption of the human kidney in persons with type 1 diabetes. Exploratory aims are to investigate acute changes in oxygen availability and oxygen access to the kidneys after SGLT2i. This include measures of peripheral blood oxygenation, mitochondrial function and autonomic function. Methods: Acute intervention study with oral dapagliflozin given in two doses each of 50 mg or matching placebo as intervention. Kidney oxygenation and perfusion parameters will be assessed by blood-oxygen-dependant level magnetic resonance imaging. Mitochondrial function will be assessed by extracellular flux analysis on lymphocytes. Autonomic function will be assessed by measuring baroreflex sensitivity. Design: Randomized, double blinded, placebo-controlled, cross-over intervention study. Study population: Fifteen healthy controls are recruited by advertisement and 15 patients with type 1 diabetes recruited from Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen. Endpoints: Primary end-point: Renal cortical and medullary oxygenation (T2*). Exploratory end-points: Renal cortical and medullary perfusion, renal artery flow, renal oxygen consumption, peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2), arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2), arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2), lymphocyte mitochondrial function, baroreflex sensitivity. Timeframe: Inclusion of patients from January 2020. Last patient last visit January 2021. Data analysis completed spring 2021, presentation autumn 2021 and publications Winter 2021.
The purpose of the DAN-VNS study is to investigate the effects of non-invasive vagal nerve stimulation on gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, bloating, and diarrhea in people with diabetes.
Significant differences in the expression of individual Growth Differentiation Factor 15 (GDF-15) proteins among Taiwanese harboring different mitochondrial genotypes are noted, and their blood serum levels also exhibited associations with diabetes. GDF-15 was originally discovered as an autocrine regulator of macrophage activation and shown to play important roles in fibrosis, malignancy, cardiovascular disease, glycemic control, and obesity. However, the relationship between GDF-15 and pre-diabetes and diabetes in Asian populations has yet to be fully investigated. Besides, any indirect associations between GDF-15 levels and diabetic complications remain unclear. The investigators aim to further investigate the role of GDF-15 levels in the initial diagnosis of diabetes, the monitoring of medication effectiveness and disease progression, and related complications such as diabetic nephropathy and neuropathy. The DNA isolated from the blood samples will be evaluated to determine individual mitochondria haplogroups, including variants located within the coding and control regions of the mitochondrial genome.
Part A: Primary objective is to determine the effects of BIIB095 on nerve excitability in healthy participants. Secondary and exploratory objectives include determining the effects of BIIB095 on nerve excitability in diabetic polyneuropathy (DPN) and assessing the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of BIIB095. Part B (optional): Equivalent objectives are pursued for BIIB074.
