Filter by:Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects around 8% of the French population, and is associated with severe complications. Maintaining a constant blood glucose level of between 0.7 and 1.80 g/l is the day-to-day objective of diabetic patients.Insulin can be administered by injection via syringes or pens, or by insulin pumps and patients can perform self-monitoring of blood glucose. All these actions can be the subject of therapeutic education, which involves a range of tools, including dedicated individual consultations carried out by state-qualified nurses. The aim of the study is to evaluate the benefit of therapeutic education consultations conducted by nurses in addition to medical consultations, on the follow-up of diabetic patients, insulin pump carriers or treated with multiple injections, in terms of glycemic control, quality of life and medical complications. The objective of the study is to evaluate whether the therapeutic education consultations conducted by nurses can improve the care of the diabetic patient.
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a spectrum of liver conditions ranging from liver steatosis (NAFL), steatohepatitis (NASH), advanced liver fibrosis and ultimately leads to cirrhosis in a significant proportion of individuals. NAFLD is intimately associated with insulin resistance and associated disorders, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and dyslipidemia. It has been noted that several individuals with liver transplantation develop nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in the transplanted liver. This is because of the presence of various risk factors of obesity and NAFLD, such as decreased physical activity, that persist following liver transplantation. Post-liver transplant patients are particularly at risk for developing NAFLD, as these patients are on oral steroids and immunosuppressants for a significant period of time. There is no medication approved for the prevention or treatment of NAFLD. Semaglutide is an GLP-1 receptor agonist that have been approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. Semaglutide has also been demonstrated to have beneficial effects on NAFLD. However, there is no data on the effect of semaglutide on liver fat accumulation or changes in body composition in patients following liver transplantation. Therefore, the current pilot study is planned to evaluate the effect of oral semaglutide on the liver fat, liver enzymes and body composition in patients undergoing liver transplantation
Hospitalized patients with severe COVID-19 have an increased incidence of insulin resistance, impaired beta cell function, glucose intolerance (prediabetes), and overt type 2 diabetes (T2D) compared to non-hospitalized patients with COVID-19 and COVID-19 negative individuals on long-term follow up.
The investigators aim to objectively identify the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) syndrome differentiation of type II diabetic and prediabetic patients in Singapore through modern technologies thereby potentially increasing the accuracy of identification, diagnosis, and prevention of diabetes and prediabetes through a system of targeted treatment. This observational study integrates the concept of TCM diagnostic methods with modern tools aim to provide an objective view on the syndrome differentiation of diabetic and prediabetic patients in Singapore and hence provide a guideline in the treatment options targeted specifically at Singaporeans demographic. A total of 250 subjects with 50 allocated in each group will be recruited to ensure a sufficient sample size for statistical analysis of the diabetic and prediabetic syndrome differentiation. Subjects aged 21-65 years old, of either gender, with no limitations on race, and is diagnosed with either diabetes (FPG ≥ 7.0 mmol/L, or 2hPG ≥ 11.1mmol) or prediabetes (IFG of FPG 6.1-6.9 mmol/L, and/or IGT with 2hPG of 7.8-11.0 mmol/L) will be included. Subjective and objective assessments through health evaluation, Physical Activity Questionnaire and Sugar Intake, Constitution in Chinese Medicine Questionnaire, radial pulse diagnosis and tongue diagnosis will be performed for each subject in a single visit. Statistical analysis of assessments will be conducted using unpaired t-test with significance level of p<0.05. Statistical software SPSS 15.0 (SPSS Inc.) will be used for the analysis.
This randomized controlled trial will investigate whether use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) vs. usual care with self-monitored blood glucose 1) enhances glycemic control, 2) reduces hypoglycemia risk, and 3) improves quality of life, diabetes distress, and fear of hypoglycemia in hemodialysis patients with diabetes mellitus.
The study is to compare the effects of SGLT-2 inhibitors and other oral hypoglycemic agents in patients with coronary heart disease and diabetes mellitus undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.
About 80% of patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma have aberrant fasting blood glucose at the time of diagnosis. The consistent association between pancreatic cancer and diabetes mellitus has long been recognized and even been termed as "chicken and egg". Many reports have found that pancreatic cancer can result in diabetes, which is called type 3c diabetes. New-onset diabetes is commonly observed in pancreatic cancer patients and has been considered as a potential screening sign. Moreover, diabetes has been found as a predictor of poor outcome in pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic cancer cells have a strong dependence on glucose and they are well-known for their sweet teeth. High glucose is associated with impaired immunologic reaction, intolerability to chemotherapy, radiotherapy and other major treatments, an increased risk of pancreatic surgery. Given the linkage between pancreatic cancer and diabetes or high blood glucose, a clinical trial is needed to validate the effect of metformin and insulin on regulating blood glucose in type 3c diabetes.
The aim of this study is to understand if the timing of exercise around food intake can help improve blood sugar management in pregnant individuals with diabetes.
This is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, single-arm study intended to characterize the safety of the FreeStyle Libre 2 Flash Glucose Monitoring System when used to manage diabetes in pediatric and young adult patient populations.
Ongoing prospective cohort of type 2 diabetes individuals.
