Filter by:Globally, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the leading cause of both mortality and morbidity. This intervention study aims to prevent and manage NCDs by adopting the World Health Organization's (WHO) comprehensive 'whole-of-government' and 'whole-of-society' approach. Although the Bangladesh government has devised a Multisectoral Action Plan (MAP) for NCD prevention and control, there's a need to operationalize these approaches at the sub-district level. This requires establishing a framework, implementing it, and assessing its effectiveness. To accomplish the study's objectives, the investigators will initially identify key stakeholders involved in NCD-related work or potentially able to contribute. Subsequently, investigators will qualitatively explore their potential involvement in NCD prevention and control, including their current roles and responsibilities, and how they could further contribute. Workshops will be conducted with these stakeholders to develop a tailored intervention model for NCD prevention and control at the sub-district level, utilizing the 'whole-of-government' and 'whole-of-society' approach. Following this, the sub-district specific model will be implemented, and the process will be documented. Finally, an evaluation will be conducted to assess the effectiveness of the sub-district specific model in achieving NCD-specific outcomes.
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) can lead to psychological adjustments that impact the acceptance and management of this health condition, as well as the overall quality of life of patients, especially among the young. Therefore, there is a need for psychological interventions aimed at enhancing the psychological well-being of children and adolescents with T1D. The goal of this non-randomized controlled trial is to evaluate whether a combined intervention comprising mHealth (using an app) and face-to-face psychological sessions based on Barlow's protocol and cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques (CBT) is effective in enhancing psychological well-being in children and adolescents with T1D. The main hypotheses are: - H1: The primary results expected to be obtained are a significant increase in psychological well-being, which means a decreased diabetes distress (DDS) (H1a) an increased subjective well-being (PANAS) (H1b) and a better self-efficacy for managing their emotions (RESE) (H1c). - H2: As secondary outcomes, it is also expected that the combined mHealth-CBT intervention would increase the level of positivity (P-Scale) (H2a), the self-esteem (RSES) (H2b) and the satisfaction with life (SWLS) (H2c).
The goal of this single-group, open-label, phase I/II clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the transplantation of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in aging-related low-grade inflammation patients' pro-inflammatory cytokines. The main questions to answer are: - Is the transplantation of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in aging-related low-grade inflammation patients safe? - Comparison of the expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1α/β, TNF-α/β, IL-6, IL-11, IL-18, IFN-γ) in the patient's blood before (day 0), after 90 days, and after 180 days of cell transplantation. - Comparison of the expression levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10, TGFβ, IL-1) in the patient's blood before (day 0), after 90 days, and after 180 days of cell transplantation. - Comparison of the inflammation balance by the ratios of pro-inflammatory cytokines to anti-inflammatory cytokines in the patient's blood before (day 0), after 90 days, and after 180 days of cell transplantation. - Comparison of the HbA1C index in the diabetes patient's blood before (day 0), after 90 days, and after 180 days of cell transplantation. - Comparision of the indices of Cholesterol, Triglyceride, LDLc, HDLc in the dislipidemia patient's blood before (day 0), after 90 days, and after 180 days of cell transplantation. - Comparison of the BMI in the obese patient's blood before (day 0), after 90 days, and after 180 days of cell transplantation. - Determination of adverse effect frequency in the patients before (day 0), during, after 90 days, and after 180 days of cell transplatation. Participants will receive two intravenous infusions of 100 million umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells on days 0 and 90. The patient will be monitored for safety and measured as per the study protocol until day 180.
The investigators aim to explore the effect of daily supplementation of Wolfia globosa Mankai on HbA1c and insulin resistance response among participants with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The investigators hypothesize that adding daily Mankai to T2D's healthy nutrition might lower HbA1c and promote glycemic control. Methods: A 3-month pilot RCT among 104 patients with T2D, with two intervention arms consuming comparable bottle volumes of either crude plant Mankai beverage (60ml Mankai) or water (60ml) 3 times/day postprandially over 3 months. Blood, urine, fecal, and clinical measures will be taken at 0 and 3 months. Overall appetite, food intake, symptoms, and medical treatment will be monitored. Importance: This study's results will shed light on the effects of regular Mankai consumption on HbA1c among patients with T2D, which may reveal a new nutritional source to improve glycemic control in T2D.
The goal of this study is to enhance reach and uptake of diabetes prevention among young adults, with a focus on recruiting underserved and high-need students who face additional challenges, including food and financial insecurity. The specific aims are to: 1) Evaluate the efficacy of adolescents and young adults (AYA)-tailored version of the University of California Diabetes Prevention Program (UC DPP) for mitigating type 2 diabetes risk (i.e., weight change) in a pre/post pilot trial. The investigators hypothesize that the AYA-tailored intervention will be effective at producing 5% weight loss from baseline to program completion (at 9-months); and, 2) Assess the feasibility and acceptability of an AYA-tailored version of the UC DPP program. The investigators hypothesize that it will be feasible to recruit the desired number of participants given proposed innovative outreach strategies, and that the AYA-tailored intervention will be deemed acceptable to participants both qualitatively and in regards to their retention in the program at rates similar to the larger UC DPP. The investigators will randomize participants to the AYA-tailored DPP cohort vs control cohort. Control participants will be offered the opportunity to participate in the AYA-tailored DPP in the following academic year. Participants will be organized into groups within their DPP cohort based on their student status and/or place of residence. The intervention will include 19 sessions (18 in-person and 1 on-demand) covering 24 DPP modules; each session is approximately an hour in length and will be moderated by a lifestyle coach. At the end of each session, intervention participants will receive an email/text with a unique link to a brief REDCap survey to ascertain acceptability of the session. Control group will receive access to materials about study habits, alcohol use, and financial literacy. Control group will receive materials via e-mail for participants to review on their own time and will receive acceptability surveys. A research assistant (RA) will meet with control participants via Zoom to explain the materials. Participants will complete baseline and 9-month follow-up assessments. Participants will complete a 30 minute questionnaire via REDCap and height/weight measurements will be collected by a RA. Participants will be asked to self-report weight and physical activity at the end of the fall and winter quarter; data will be collected via brief REDCap survey.
Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the chronic diseases that can have an impact on increasing morbidity, disability, and death. Social media has become a valuable resource for people with diabetes in improving self-management skills Applying diabetes self-management education with ongoing support using social media produces behavioral changes, empowerment, and cost-effectiveness. purpose: the purpose of this study is to examine the effect of self-management education with ongoing support using social media (WhatsApp) on glycemic control among patients with uncontrolled diabetes. Method: 140 patients with diabetes type 2 attending outpatients' diabetes clinic setting in Aqaba will participate in a two-arm randomized controlled trial study. Self-management education will be applied for all participants, ongoing support using social media (what's app) will be applied to the intervention group, and only usual diabetes care by a diabetes specialist nurse will be applied to the control group.
Non-alcoholic hepatic steatosis (NAFLD) is characterised by the excessive accumulation of triglycerides in the liver and is often associated, in the absence of significant alcohol consumption, with insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome with which it shares the most frequent clinical manifestations (hypertension, dyslipidaemia, visceral adiposity, glucose intolerance). Due to the pandemic spread of obesity and diabetes and by virtue of better control of viral hepatitis, NAFLD is the most common cause of liver damage in Western countries with a prevalence of around 20-30% of the general population. The clinical impact of NAFLD in diabetes is considerable and represents a real driver of the major clinical outcomes that impact on the health of the individual, consequently creating a real 'burden of disease' especially in those populations considered to be at higher risk of disease severity. Individuals with diabetes are, in fact, those at greatest risk of developing the clinical sequelae of NAFLD and often do not receive adequate hepatological support and a correct hepatic pathology. In fact, it has been documented in the literature that the presence of diabetes increases the severity of liver damage, bringing the risk of NASH up to 80% and increasing the risk of significant fibrosis to 30-40% of subjects with hepatic steatosis as well as representing an independent predictor for significant fibrosis. Lastly, the increased risk of hepatocarcinoma in subjects with diabetes and NAFLD should not be overlooked, as documented by our group and confirmed in a large Italian case series. In subjects with diabetes, moreover, the presence of NAFLD is not only associated with worse glycaemic control, but also with micro- and macro-vascular complications as well as nephrological and neuropathic complications and increased mortality. Therefore, the possibility of applying the non-invasive fibrosis scores currently available for NAFLD on a large scale, in a population at high risk of progressive liver disease, would make it possible to characterise (a) the true epidemiology of significant fibrosis (F3 or higher); (b) allow primary prevention actions to be carried out by optimising the use of resources or by identifying subjects at greater risk of damage progression; (c) understand, in cases with a long history of disease the true prevalence of clinical outcomes; (d) understand the epidemiology of comorbidities and polypharmacy as a function of significant fibrosis.
Consequences of the compromised vascular system in diabetes mellitus (DM) are among the most devastating complications. Reduction in blood flow and oxygen uptake of skeletal muscle leads to muscle fatigue and impaired skeletal muscle post-exercise adaptation. Recent studies showed that intermittent vacuum therapy (IVT) augments the blood flow of the foot in people with DM. This pilot study investigates the effects of combined IVT and aerobic exercise in improving lower limb muscle oxygenation and distal circulation in individuals with DM. Positive results of the study shed light on strategy that enhances the effectiveness of aerobic exercise in people with DM.
