Filter by:This study investigates the potential protective effects of fatty acid supplementation through inhibition of platelet activation. fatty acids (omega-3 and omega-6) will be evaluated for protection from agonist-mediated platelet activation in platelets from type 2 diabetics and healthy controls. Post-menopausal women with type 2 diabetes mellitus and healthy post-menopausal women will be treated with omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acid supplements to determine protection from platelet activation and thrombosis in this high risk population.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has become the epidemic of the XXI century. This chronic disease is also highly prevalent and primarily associated with an increased cardiovascular mortality and morbidity due to micro and macrovascular complications, where its pathophysiological mechanism accelerates the formation of the atherosclerotic process, fundamental element associated with arterial stiffness. The importance of anticipating the presence of a cardiovascular event lies precisely in the early detection of subclinical changes in the elastic arteries identified by measuring the pulse wave velocity. Having adequate pharmacological or non-pharmacological interventions that impact precisely in the reduction of pulse wave velocity contributes to a reduction of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality associated with DM2. Among non-pharmacological therapies they have been studied the benefits attributed to the use of green tea infusion either encapsulated or extract have been associated mainly with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. There are both experimental and clinical studies that have shown benefits of administration of green tea (extract or infusion), and administered by different routes at different dosages and for varying times. But it has been noted that not all studies with green tea meet appropriate to draw conclusions about its benefits to cardiovascular level. However, it is proposed that the use of green tea extract with a highest amount of catechins through a controlled clinical trial could be a potential therapeutic strategy for changing hemodynamic alterations and arterial stiffness favorably in this particular group of patients DM2.
This study evaluates the long-term benefits of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on type 2 diabetes mellitus, focussing on the prevalence and predictors of T2DM improvement and remission after RYGB, and subsequently relapse of type 2 diabetes mellitus after RYGB. Moreover, the study evaluates the possible effect of RYGB on diabetic microvascular complications such as nephropathy and retinopathy. Finally, the study provides insight into the factors influencing glucose-insulin homeostasis after RYGB, including altered microbiota diversity and bile acid levels.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether in patients with early type 2 diabetes,a short-term intensive metabolic intervention comprising of sitagliptin, metformin, basal insulin glargine and lifestyle approaches will be superior to standard diabetes therapy in achieving sustained diabetes remission.
This extension study was designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Canagliflozin (TA-7284) in combination with Insulin in patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. The extension study was an extension to double-blind study of 16 weeks (TA-7284-11)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects and safety of Tianqi Capsule on glucose variability in patients with type 2 diabetes by continuous blood glucose monitoring system.
A trial of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus to evaluate the comparative effectiveness between dapagliflozin and Standard of Care (SOC)
Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors reduce hyperglycemia and improve peripheral insulin sensitivity by ameliorating glucotoxicity. Insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is associated with endothelial dysfunction and vascular inflammation. Thus strategies to improve insulin sensitivity and lower glucotoxicity may improve endothelial inflammation and vascular inflammation. However, the effects of these agents on vascular inflammation and endothelial function is not known in patients with type 2 diabetes although anti-inflammatory properties have been demonstrated in various animal models. In the present study the investigators will assess if dapagliflozin treatment for 12 weeks decreases monocyte inflammation and improves endothelial function in patients with type 2 diabetes on metformin monotherapy.
To compare the short and long term effects of inhibitor of the DPP-IV enzyme, sitagliptin , with bedtime NPH insulin in patients with T2D inadequately controlled with sulphonylurea plus biguanide: effects on beta cell function and on metabolic profile.
To investigate the Safety and Efficacy of Acarbose+Saxagliptin Compared With Metformin+Saxagliptin in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes,100 patients with T2DM will be enrolled in this study.They will randomly be assigned to Acarbose+Saxagliptin or Metformin+Saxagliptin group.HbA1c，fasting and postprandial C-peptide will be observed before and after the interventions.
