Filter by:This study aims to test a dietary intervention for diabetes in a medical practice setting, with the aim of developing a model for diabetes care that can be used widely. The investigators hypothesize that a low-fat vegan diet will be effective for management of diabetes and will be feasible in a practice-based setting.
To evaluate the effectiveness of two different diabetes self-management approaches (Personal Digital Assistant-based intervention & Chronic Disease Self-Management Program) to reduce health disparities in minority, rural residents, and other underserved populations with type 2 diabetes in Central Texas. We hypothesise that: 1) Racial/ethnic minority patients with T2DM will be found to experience disparities in diabetes self-management treatment protocols and clinical outcomes, which persist even when controlling for age, gender, obesity, and insurance status; 2) Patients with T2DM who reside in more rural areas will be found to experience disparities in diabetes self-management treatment protocols and clinical outcomes as compared to more urban counterparts, controlling for age, gender, race/ethnicity, obesity, and insurance status; 3) The introduction of CSDMP and HIT protocols will improve diabetes-related self management behaviors, reduce HBA1c values, and increase quality of life in persons with T2DM as compared to controls. A combined intervention approach will result in the greatest reductions; 4) Health improvements following the introduction of CDSMP, HIT or CDSMP/HIT protocols in persons with T2DM compared to controls will be more marked in racial/ethnic minority patients and those patients residing in rural areas; 5) The introduction of self-management interventions will be cost-effective in reducing HbA1c values over time, and associated health care utilization including overall reduction in ER and acute care hospital admissions; 6) Although there is little prior research in this area to guide specific hypotheses, we hypothesize that, overall, there will be no significant cost-effective differential in CDSMP as compared to HIT approaches, although the cost-effective ratio may be stronger in particular subpopulations. The combined approach will have higher costs, but is also anticipated to have a higher cost-benefit ratio for minority populations; 7) The majority of clinicians will be willing to let their patients enroll in the study and will reinforce intervention protocols; and 8) These interventions can be embedded into existing health care structures. At the end of the study, Scott and White will institutionalize cost-effective treatment protocols.
An observational and multicenter study to assess the effectiveness and safety of Glucobay®- M under daily life treatment of type-2 diabetes patients.The study objectives are to investigate the effectiveness and safety of Glucobay® -M on blood glucose and patients body - weight. Glucobay®- M is taken 1-3 times daily. All patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, where investigator feels that addition of Glucobay®-M would be beneficial to patients will be included in non- interventional study. The routine investigation suggested by the attending physician will be done in diabetic patients. No additional investigation will be done for the study purpose. The uncontrolled diabetic patient on existing treatment and prescribed Glucobay®-M will be included in study after taking the informed consent. The patient will be asked to attend 2 follow up visit each after 6 weeks. All patients receiving at least one tablet will be included in the safety analysis.The study is planned to be carried out in 10000 patients from 320-350 trial sites in India.
This is a study in Japanese healthy volunteers to determine the safety and tolerability of the compound AZD7687. It will also assess how the body handles the drug and how it responds to the drug following single dose followed by multiple dosing over 7 days.
This study is being carried out to see if dapagliflozin - administered in a daily dose of 2.5 mg given twice a day or 5 mg twice a day or 10mg once daily - in addition to metformin, is beneficial in diabetes treatment, and if so, how it compares to treatment with metformin alone.
The present study was conducted to test whether a fish gelatin supplement combined with an omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid supplement can exert beneficial and sex-specific effects on insulin sensitivity, glucose tolerance, indicators of insulin secretion, blood pressure, lipid metabolism, inflammation and energy intake in obese or overweight insulin-resistant men and women. The investigators hypothesis is that fish gelatin improves insulin sensitivity, glucose tolerance, lipid profile and reduces inflammation in obese or overweight insulin-resistant men and women.
Improvement in cardiovascular mortality is related to changes in pathologic autoantibodies and in the number of circulating functional replicative competent endothelial progenitor cells (EPC's) after bariatric surgery.
The investigators wish to investigate wether a more strict diabetic control improves cardiac function, muscle strength, exercise capacity and decreases symptoms. The investigators hypothesis is that improving the glycemic control in suboptimized diabetics with heart failure will improve cardiac performance, muscle strength, exercise capacity and decrease symptoms.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of the 3 Branched Chained Amino Acids (isoleucine, leucine, and valine) on treating Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness, a type of muscle pain which usually develops after exercising.
Three hundred and ninety height diabetic patients were educated during a week of hospitalisation (nutritional and physical-activity advices). After that, they were randomized in two groups : frequent follow-up (each three month) by educational nurses and dieteticians, versus no follow-up (control group). All patients were evaluated one year after their inclusion,by HbA1c (primary outcome), anthropometry, other cardiovascular risk factors, nutritionnal and physical-activity behaviours.
