Filter by:Cardiovascular disease is a major public health problem in our country. Among the causes of cardiovascular diseases are High Blood Pressure (HBP) and Diabetes Mellitus (DM). Type 2 diabetes (DM2) is associated with a twofold risk of cardiovascular disease, and endothelial dysfunction is an early marker of vascular complications. There is evidence of action of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) on endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle. Vildagliptin is a drug used in the treatment of DM2 able to prolong the activity of GLP-1, improving glycemic control and endothelial function. Objectives: To evaluate the effect of vildagliptin on endothelial function in patients with DM2 and hypertension using the Endo-PAT 2000 device.
Mitiglinide, a benzylsuccinic acid derivative, exerts selective action on the ATP-dependent K (KATP) channel of pancreatic β-cells and reportedly possesses a stronger affinity to the channel compared with other insulinotropic sulphonylurea receptor ligands, namely repaglinide and nateglinide. Preprandial administration of mitiglinide efficiently reduces postprandial hyperglycemia and improves overall glycemic control. This was a 12-week, open, randomized study for comparing Mitiglinide versus Acarbose. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Mitiglinide vs Acarbose in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
To assess the safety and effectiveness of two doses of SugarDown in two different doses vs. placebo on serum glucose levels after meals in subjects with Type 2 Diabetes treated with metformin alone. There will be five visits, a screening visit, baseline visit, and 3 treatment visits. The study duration will be five weeks. Subjects will all receive placebo tablets at the baseline visit, eat a standard rice meal, and then serum glucose levels will be measured in frequent intervals over four hours immediately following the meal. Subjects will be randomized to one of the six treatment sequences. Patients will take in an unknown order one week of placebo, one week of 4 g dose and one week of 8 g dose of SugarDown immediately before breakfast, lunch and dinner meals. Patients will continue their usual metformin regimen during the trial period.
Next to HbA1c, body weight is regarded as an important surrogate end-point in trials investigating glucose-lowering agents. An increase in weight could contribute to worsening insulin resistance. Differences in weight after starting glucose lowering agents have been described in many randomized controlled trials (RCTs). With this prospective observational study, weight trajectories after receiving add-on therapy next to metformin are evaluated in primary care patients with good glycaemic control.
The primary purpose of this study is to compare the effect of a double dose of a study drug known as insulin peglispro to a double dose of insulin glargine in participants who have type 2 diabetes. Participants will be treated with study insulin daily, in two 4-week study periods. Each participant will receive insulin peglispro during one treatment period and insulin glargine during the other treatment period.
In this study the investigators will test the hypothesis that dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP4) inhibition attenuates the antihypertensive effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition but not angiotensin receptor blockade or calcium channel blockade. The investigators further hypothesize that this effect is mediated by substance P.
In this study, we will investigate both inflammatory systems in healthy volunteers and patients with T2DM on insulin therapy and hyperlipidemia (both familial hyperlipidemia (FH) and familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCH)) during an OGTT.
The purpose of this study is to determine if consumption of bagels made with resistant starch for 8 weeks can improve markers of type 2 diabetes, colon cancer and satiety in adults.
To evaluate the antihypertensive effect of amiloride added to triple antihypertensive therapy in patients with resistant hypertension (RH) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)
This is a study to assess the pharmacokinetics and safety of ertugliflozin (MK-8835, PF-04971729) in participants with hepatic impairment versus healthy participants. In Part 1 of the study, participants with moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh score 7-9) and matched healthy participants will be enrolled; depending on results in Part 1, Part 2 may be conducted and will enroll participants with mild hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh score 5-6).
