Filter by:The primary aim of the study is to determine if non-surgical periodontal therapy (scaling and root planing and supportive periodontal therapy) is efficacious compared to delayed therapy in reducing elevated glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) at 6 months post-randomization in subjects with type 2 diabetes and untreated, moderate to advanced chronic periodontitis. The secondary aims of the study are to: 1. evaluate whether 6 month (or shorter-term (3 month)) changes in clinical measures of chronic periodontitis (gingival index, bleeding on probing, probing depth, clinical attachment level) are related to changes in HbA1c and fasting glucose or insulin resistance as measured by the Homeostasis Model Assessment 2 (HOMA2). 2. assess the 3 month and 6 month efficacy of periodontal therapy on all of the above study outcomes. If a treatment response is observed for any of the study outcomes at 3 months, then the trial can evaluate whether this response is sustained at 6 months.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of KRP-104 on glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled on metformin alone.
The major objective of this study is to conduct a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial to assess whether oral alpha lipoic acid supplementation will decrease cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes risk in obese subjects.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of Diamel (dietary supplement) administration in the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes receiving insulin therapy. The duration of this double-blind placebo controlled phase 3 clinical trial will be 24 weeks. The estimated number of patients to be recruited and randomized for the study is 116. Daily insulin requirements, blood glucose (fasting and post-prandial) concentrations, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), triglycerides and cholesterol will be assessed at the beginning and after 24 weeks of treatment.
The purpose of this study is to obtain continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data from individuals taking Welchol compared to placebo. The CGM data will determine the effect on glucose control of adding Welchol to an anti-diabetic medication regimen.
The aim of this study is to investigate weather gradual weight loss achieved with healthy lifestyle changes influence hormonal factors affecting appetite and blood glucose control in obese people without presence of diabetes.
SYSDIET (Systems biology in controlled dietary interventions and cohort studies) is one of the three centres in the NCoE Food, Nutrition and Health, 2007-2011. It consists of 12 partners from five Nordic countries working on multidisciplinary fields of science related to nutritional biology. The main objective of SYSDIET is to reveal mechanisms by which Nordic foods and diets could be modified to promote health and prevent insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, all of which being connected to metabolic syndrome. Furthermore, the aim is to build up a Nordic platform for cohort studies and carefully conducted multi-centre dietary intervention studies, where novel nutritional systems biology tools can be applied besides human studies also in animal and cell culture studies. In order to achieve the main objective a Nordic multi-centre randomized controlled human intervention study is being conducted in 2009-2010 in 6-8 centres of SYSDIET consortium. Health of the Nordic populations has substantially improved during the last 30 years. This is due e.g. to marked decline in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. However, during the last 10-20 years increasing obesity and sedentary lifestyle have resulted in an increase of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. Having this background, the aim of the SYSDIET consortium is to carry out a controlled, randomized dietary intervention study in persons with features of metabolic syndrome to find out the effects of a healthy Nordic food on major abnormalities in metabolic syndrome. Altogether 167 persons aged 30 to 65 years were recruited from 6-8 centers (40-60 subjects/center) of the SYSDIET cohort. The main inclusion criterion is BMI 27-38 kg/m2. The subjects should also have at least two other IDF criteria for metabolic syndrome. Recruited persons will start the study by following their conventional diet for one month as a run-in period. After that subjects will be randomly assigned into Experimental- or Control-diet-group for 6 months. Experimental diet is rich in whole grain products, berries, fruits, vegetables and fish, and its fat intake is modified according to current Nordic recommendations. Control diet is based on the current information of the mean dietary intake and food consumption. The diets will be realized according to eating habits in each Nordic country.
The investigators aim to establish the effectiveness of a prescribed, community-based lifestyle modification program for those with recently diagnosed diabetes. The investigators hypothesize that those who enter a 6 month program will report greater levels of physical activity compared to a group who do not enter the program but who continue to receive usual care.
The purpose of this trial is to study the efficacy and safety of pioglitazone added to combination therapy of sulfonylurea plus metformin with placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes.
The main objective of the study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the Gastrointestinal (GI) EndoBarrier in the glycemic control of diabetes in subjects with Type 2 diabetes.
