Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BIOD-531 compared to Humalog®Mix 75/25 in patients with type 2 diabetes.
The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of intermittent fasting on insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle and fat distribution.
The goal of this trial is to gain initial clinical experience regarding the safety and efficacy of treating type I diabetes in people who have received a kidney transplant by transplanting islets into a new transplant site in the stomach (gastrointestinal submucosa). A total of 6 patients will be enrolled in the study and followed for a period of up to 3 years after the last islet transplant.
The investigators aimed to characterize human circadian clockwork in healthy individuals in comparison to obese and type 2 diabetic subjects, employing the noninvasive experimental approach allowing the study of circadian profile in human individuals.
Severe childhood obesity is associated with both immediate and chronic health problems and a severe impact on psychosocial development. Medical and behavioural interventions rarely result in the significant, durable weight loss necessary to improve health outcomes. This is a randomised clinical trial where 50 adolescents, 13-16 years of age, will be randomised to either early bariatric surgery (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass) or intense conservative treatment and possibly surgery after two years of non-surgical treatment or as they have become 18 years.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) stress pathway is activated in peripheral tissues (adipose tissue) in insulin resistant diabetic patients compared to healthy subjects normoglycemic matched for age and sex an to investigate whether ER stress pathway can be activated in response to insulin. Indeed, some preliminar on rates studies shows that ER stress pathway is activated by insulin in liver and adipose tissue showing that hyperinsulinemia might help trigger stress path ER. For this, we propose a case control study of type 2 diabetic patients vs control subjects in which markers of ER stress will be evaluated from abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue obtained before and after euglycemic hyperinsulinemic. We chose to consider adipose tissue subcutaneous rather than visceral adipose tissue for obvious reasons of lesser invasiveness.
This study will test ways to improve health behaviors using an intervention that has been specially designed for African-American men. The program, called Active & Healthy Brotherhood (AHB), will provide information on basic health, and healthy eating, physical activity, stress management, and how to get medical care when needed.The AHB intervention will be compared to a control group that will receive basic health information in videos and brochures.
This is a pilot study to enroll 100 people to assess the incidence of lipohypertrophy as detected with ultrasound and its impact on glycemic variability.
A Comparison of AmnioExcel® and Total Contact Casting (TCC-EZ) Versus Standard Wound Care and TCC-EZ in Treating Diabetic Foot Ulcers Best practice is to treat DFUs with standardized care and, if unsuccessful, use advanced modalities. This prospective clinical trial will compare healing rates between two treatment modalities in patients with DFUs in an ambulatory wound care clinic. The treatments are Total Contact Cast (TCC-EZ) with AmnioExcel® and TCC-EZ with standard treatment. Adult participants 18 years or older with a diabetic foot ulcer located on the plantar surface and >1 cm in diameter will be asked by the Altru Wound Care Clinic MD or Family Nurse Practitioner visit to participate in the study if they have not demonstrated a 50% in reduction in wound area after two weeks of standard treatment. For those potential subjects who do not have 3rd party reimbursement the cost of the product and application will be covered by the respective company. They must be cognitively intact as evaluated by wound clinic primary care providers. Participants must agree to use the study treatments as directed, and to keep clinic visits during the 12-week trial or until the ulcer closes, whichever comes first.
The purpose of this pilot study is to determine the utility of an algorithm for better glucose control in diabetic patients communicated via an App to help improve outcomes and reduce urgent care and ER visits as well as improve A1C and quality of life.
