Filter by:REWARD is an Non Interventional study aims to describe the changes in the clinical outcomes of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients who are treated with Dapagliflozin for a period of one year including the fasting period of Ramadan
The investigators will recruit DoD beneficiaries, aged 18 years or older and diagnosed as being Type II diabetic. Patients will be randomized into one of two groups. Group 1 will use a fitness tracker but will not be able to see other participants data and group 2 will use a fitness tracker and will be able to see other members daily and weekly results. Outcome measures will be assessed at baseline, 3 months and 6 months to include hemoglobin A1c, weight, body mass index, blood pressure, and number of hours and days fitness tracker is used. The goal is to see if the group randomized into an online community will have improved activity and outcome measurements compared with those who use the pedometer alone.
In Protocol 2, the investigators will determine the role of pancreatic hormones (increase in plasma glucagon and decrease in plasma insulin concentration) in the stimulation of EGP following SGLT2 inhibition.
Evaluation the change of patients' glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) after 12 weeks diet control
This study is a German, prospective, multicenter, controlled, cluster-randomized, interventional comparative study evaluating the efficacy and benefits of integrated PDM care by measuring HbA1c levels in patients with Type 2 Diabetes. Patients will be randomized into two groups to use Accu-Chek Smartpix software and Accu-Chek Smartpix device.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of krill oil supplementation in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus on heart health and laboratory diabetic measurements. Patients who enroll in this study will be asked to visit the Western Connecticut Health Network Biomedical Research Institute on 3 separate occasions: for baseline testing, after 4 weeks of supplementing with krill oil, and after 4 weeks of supplementing with a placebo. Patients will be randomized into one of two groups to determine the order in which they receive the supplement and placebo. Every patient will receive both the krill oil and the placebo, but both the coordinator and the patient are blinded to which is which. At each visit, participants will undergo a non-invasive test which measures the function of the inner lining of blood vessels and they will also have blood drawn. Fasting is required before each appointment. The blood drawn is used to measure their Hemoglobin A1C, Glucose, HDL, LDL, total cholesterol, C-peptide and total antioxidant capacity. Risks to taking krill oil supplements are likely to include bad breath, heartburn, fishy taste, upset stomach, nausea, loose stools, gas, and bloating. Risks of EndoPAT testing are not permanent and may include pain, numbness, tingling, redness, and bruising at the site of the blood pressure cuff. Risks that are associated with drawing blood may include redness, swelling, pain or discomfort, bruising at the site of the needle stick, or in very rare cases, infection at the needle site. To minimize these risks, trained technologists and phlebotomists will be used for all procedures. This is not a treatment option; while involved in this study all participants will continue their regular treatment for Type 2 diabetes mellitus (as well as any other applicable conditions).
Despite advances in medical therapy for diabetes, significant numbers of patients fail to achieve adequate blood glucose control. Diabetic patients who engage in more self-care behaviors have better glycemic control, as measured by HbA1C. Patient "activation", defined as the knowledge, skills, beliefs, and behaviors to manage a chronic disease, is key to the performance of these self-care behaviors. There is a growing literature on diabetes behavioral change interventions; however interventions are often developed and implemented without consideration of patients readiness to engage in lifestyle changes. Additionally, patient-tailored interventions require intensive clinical and financial resources, making them difficult to integrate into clinical practice. Mobile text messaging (SMS) programs have been successfully used to promote smoking cessation, alcohol cessation, and weight loss in diverse patient populations. SMS interventions for diabetes have also been developed, but they have been designed primarily to provide feedback on blood glucose management, rather than to motivate behavioral change. The few studies that included motivational content as a primary feature, did not tailor their intervention to a patient's readiness for change or rigorously describe their motivational intervention, and show limited efficacy. To address these concerns, we will perform a three-month randomized controlled pilot study to develop and test a Motivational Interviewing (MI)-informed SMS intervention tailored to patient level of activation for patients with poorly controlled type II diabetes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of pioglitazone 30 mg on glycemic control when used in participants with inadequately controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus treated with stable combinations of metformin and sulfonylurea.
Investigators propose to examine the effect of 12 weeks of Linagliptin, a diabetes drug, treatment on inflammation as well as vascular and mitochondrial function in diabetic patients. Investigators hypothesize that Linagliptin will reduce the proinflammatory state, improve endothelial function, increase the blood flow at the muscle microcirculation level and improve mitochondrial function. In this study, investigators will perform tests that evaluate the function of small and large blood vessels by employing ultrasound and laser doppler techniques. In addition MRI scans that evaluate the mitochondrial function of the lower extremity muscles at rest and during exercise will also be employed. Forty subjects with Type 2 diabetes will be studied for twelve weeks and half of them will be randomly assigned to receive linagliptin while the other half will receive placebo. All tests will be performed at the beginning and the end of the study.
The objectives of this study is to determine the safety profiles, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of HMS5552 following single ascending doses in healthy adult subjects.
