Filter by:This study is to describe the real-world use and impact of semaglutide once-weekly (OW) among participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in China. Participants diagnosed with T2DM who initiated semaglutide OW for the first time between 1 Jan 2022 (the date when semaglutide OW was listed in the National Reimbursement Drug List [NRDL] in China] and 28 Feb 2023 (9 months prior to the data extraction cut-off date of 30 Nov 2023) will be included in this study. The study period will be 36 months prior to the first date of participants identification period.
The goal of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 6-month supplementation study in individuals with type 2 diabetes is to investigate whether taking daily dietary supplements of vitamin D3 (1600 IU) or prebiotics (inulin, 10 gram) has beneficial effects on cardiovascular disease risk factors.
Background : Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is associated with an increased risk of fractures. The mechanisms accounting for this bone fragility are not yet fully understood. As T1D is often diagnosed in childhood or early adulthood, the lower bone mineral density (BMD) and deteriorated bone microarchitecture observed in T1D may reflect changes in the bone that occurred before or at the time of peak bone mass achievement. There is a lack of high-quality prospective studies to determine whether adults with T1D continue to lose BMD or deteriorate bone quality compared with controls. Moreover, while chronic hyperglycemia is a risk factor for fracture in T1D, it is unknown if better glycemic control affects bone outcomes. This prospective multicenter cohort study aims: (1) To compare the changes in the following outcomes over 4 years in adults with T1D and controls without diabetes of similar age, sex and body-mass index distribution: BMD by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at the femoral neck, hip, spine, and radius, trabecular bone score (TBS) by DXA, and serum biochemical markers of bone turnover (BTMs); (2) To evaluate whether long-term glycemic control or the presence of a microvascular complication are independent predictors of the changes in BMD and TBS in people with T1D.
This study aims to evaluate the effects of animated films and story books on the fear and anxiety levels of children with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes.
Background: Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is an advanced form of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) that can precipitate to advanced fibrosis and leads to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Many patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) had histological evidence of steatosis and met the histological criteria for NASH. Matrix metalloproteinase-14 (MMP-14) is a type 1 transmembrane proteinase expressed in liver fibrosis and is involved in the development of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. Hepatic dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) expression in NAFLD may be directly associated with hepatic lipogenesis and liver injury. Some studies showed the beneficial effect of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DDP-4) inhibitors in NAFLD/NASH for their role in improving hepatic glucose metabolism. Vildagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, could be promising therapeutic agents for NAFLD/NASH. To the best of our knowledge, no previous study assessed the role of DPP-4 inhibitors in adolescent patients with T1DM and NASH. Objectives: This randomized-controlled clinical trial assessed the impact of the oral DPP-4 inhibitor, vildagliptin, as an add-on therapy on NASH in adolescents with T1DM as well as its effect on glycemic control, lipid profile, MMP-14 levels and CIMT as a marker for subclinical atherosclerosis. Methods: This study included 60 adolescents with T1DM and NASH with a mean age 15.6 ± 2.08 years and disease duration ≥ 5 years. Forty age- and sex-matched healthy subjects with a mean age 14.9 ± 3.2 years were enrolled as healthy controls to compare MMP-14 levels. T1DM patients were randomly assigned to receive oral vildagliptin (50 mg daily) with lunch meal for six months or not. Fasting and 2 hours post-prandial blood glucose levels, HbA1c, liver function tests, fasting lipid profile, hepatic steatosis index and triglyceride glucose (TyG) index were assessed. MMP-14 levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay among all patients and healthy controls. CIMT was assessed using Doppler ultrasound and transient elastography with controlled attenuation parameter (CAP) was performed to assess liver stiffness and steatosis stage.
This project aims to implement an adapted self-affirmation intervention among a population of individuals with diabetes to reduce the negative psychosocial impacts of stigma. In a self-affirmation, participants are guiding through a writing exercise writing designed to reinforce sources of self-worth before they encounter or engage in stressful or stigmatizing events. Participants in this study will be asked to complete self-affirmation exercises before their 3-month wellness appointments with their endocrinologists over the course of a year. The main questions the investigators are asking are: - Will self-affirmation reduce feelings of stigmatization? - Will self-affirmation increase self-efficacy and motivation to engage in condition management behaviors. - Will self-affirmation improve blood glucose control. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the intervention condition or a waitlist control condition. Participants in the waitlist control condition will also complete writing exercises but they will be abbreviated (this in the psychological literature is referred to as a "low affirmation condition"). At the end of the study, waitlist control participants will have access to the full exercise should they like to receive it. After each appointment and self-affirmation, participants will complete surveys assessing feelings of stigma and motivation to engage in condition management. All participants will already be using continuous glucose monitors. The investigators will compare both survey responses and continuous glucose data between our conditions to assess the efficacy of the self-affirmation intervention.
The CONNECT: "Developing a learning COmmunity to increase eNgagemeNt and Enrollment in cardiovascular Clinical Trials" is comprehensive, participant-centered learning community that provides tailored education on cardiovascular (CV) health and research participation; connects community members to CV-related research; and disseminates CV-related study findings. The overreaching goal of CONNECT is to improve participation of underrepresented communities in CV research, including as women, Black adults, and Latino adults, through increasing participants' clinical trial awareness, trust in biomedical research, and willingness to participate in clinical trials. CONNECT will use digital and community-engaged approaches to identify and recruit 1000 adults with cardiovascular disease or a cardiovascular disease risk factor to join CONNECT. Participants who join CONNECT will receive tailored educational information on CV health and research participation via text message. Participants will also have the opportunity to be matched to ongoing CV research studies based on basic demographic information and areas of interest. The educational information will be sent to participants for 12 months. The investigators hypothesize that CONNECT will increase participants' clinical trial awareness, trust, and willingness to participate in clinical trials and that the proportion of Black and Latin adults and women enrolled in trials that partner with CONNECT will be higher following the use of CONNECT for recruitment.
This study evaluates the metabolic control status, cardiovascular risk and frequency of comorbidities in diabetic patients followed in tertiary treatment centers in Turkey.
This study will be conducted using a randomized controlled trial design to evaluate the effect of online individual motivational interviewing on well-being, stress and difficulties in individuals with diabetes. The study will be conducted between March 2024 and March 2025 with individuals with Type 2 Diabetes who are followed up in Yozgat Bozok University Health Practice and Research Center Internal Medicine Polyclinic. The motivational interview group will receive a motivational interview once a week, lasting a maximum of 40 minutes, consisting of a total of four sessions. Chi-square (X2), t-test, repeated measures analysis of variance, Pearson correlation coefficient, partial eta-square and linear regression analysis will be used to evaluate the data.
.This randomized controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the effects of fall prevention in older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Describe the current situation of falls, the risk of falls, and some related factors in elderly type 2 diabetic patients - Evaluate the results of fall prevention and related factors in the study population. Participants will be randomly divided into control and intervention groups. The intervention group will be trained to follow the Otago Training Program as the primary fall prevention method. On the other hand, the control group will receive the standard care following the treatment guidelines for type 2 diabetes mellitus and other comorbidities. At the end of the intervention, the study will mainly compare the rate of fall incidents after 6 months of intervention as well as other physical performance tests.
