Filter by:Aim: The aim of this study is to determine whether a prediabetes mobile application (PREDIABE-TR) designed in Turkish to inform and advise individuals at risk of developing diabetes about healthy eating and physical exercise can make a difference in the participants' eating according to the Mediterranean Diet Plan, or in their physical activity and other diabetes-related metabolic parameters. Methods: A total of 120 adults at risk of developing diabetes will be assigned into an experimental and a control group by means of Stratified Permuted Block Randomization. The adults in the experimental group will be using the PREDIABE-TR mobile application for a period of 6 months. Over the same period, the control group will use the Turkish Nutrition Guide and the Diabetes Checklists mobile application distributed by the Turkish Ministry of Health. At the end of the six-month period, a review will be made of the diabetes metabolic data, physical activity levels and the Mediterranean Diet eating behaviors. At the same time, an assessment will be made of the control group's use of the mobile application with the help of the Mobile Application Usability Scale. Statistical data will be analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences program. Discussion: The benefits of interventions to promote a healthy lifestyle are evident in terms of preventing a transition from prediabetes to diabetes and maintaining present status. The current novel coronavirus pandemic has clearly shown the advantages of and necessity for remote interventions. In this study, we will attempt to determine whether or not the use of the PREDIABE-TR mobile application can promote a healthy lifestyle and achieve a reduced risk of diabetes. Impact: This study will serve to provide evidence of the practicality, acceptability and cost effectiveness of various applications (such as mobile apps) that can be an alternative to face-to-face consultation and other medical practices. This alternative can be suggested to policy- and decision-makers. Such applications can also be considered preventive strategies.
The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of the iCan Diabetes Self-Management and Prevention Support Group using a single arm clinical trial. The program is composed of six weekly sessions, and it will be implemented with 60 adults (aged 18 years or older) who have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes and evaluated using mixed methods. A pre-test will be conducted before the program implementation and a post-test will be conducted three months after the pre-test. Focus groups will be conducted shortly after the last session to obtain feedback on the program. Between the last session and the post-test, weekly emails/texts will be sent to keep participants engaged and maximize retention rate.
Systematically screen the high-risk population of diabetes in Xinqiao district to understand the characteristics of early glucose metabolism changes and pancreatic islet function changes in patients with pre diabetes. Relying on MMC platform and combined with CGM therapeutic monitoring technology to standardize the management of patients with prediabetes, it is expected that the annual conversion rate of diabetes in patients with prediabetes will be 8% (according to the literature, if the pre diabetes population is not intervened, the annual conversion rate of diabetes will be about 14%), which will move forward the management of diabetes and create a new mode of pre diabetes management.
Dorzagliatin, a novel dual allosteric activator of glucokinase. reduces blood glucose by increasing insulin secretion by enhancing sensitivity of beta cells to glucose. In this placebo controlled cross over study, we examined the effects of dorzagliatin in people with impaired glucose tolerance and normal glucose tolerance.
Sleep disordered breathing is associated with impaired glucose tolerance and incident diabetes. Nocturnal hypoxemia is a potential stimulus of glucose intolerance. It is especially severe and highly prevalent in high altitude residents. Intervening on nocturnal hypoxemia may therefore improve glucose control and decrease the public health burden in high altitude populations. The objective of this study is to examine the impact of hypoxemia on glucose homeostasis in high altitude residents. The investigators will address this objective by examining the effect of supplemental oxygen on glucose in a randomized cross-over study.
The aim of this study is to determine the effects of blood flow restriction training on glycemic control and functional activity in participants with prediabetes. Moreover, This study determine the effects of blood flow restriction training on quality of life in participants with prediabetes
Diabetes mellitus is recognized as a metabolic disease that causes global economic and health burdens with an estimated number of patients 135 million in 1995 to 300 million in 2025. Moreover, the Asia-Pacific region is considered to be on the verge of an emerging diabetes epidemic. Diabetes is associated with numerous comorbidities due to a wide range of complications, such as retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy, and cardiovascular disease, which could lead to premature mortality. Management of diabetes under standard treatment protocol improves quality of life and prevents complications and premature mortality. Pathogenesis of these detrimental complications caused by diabetes is not yet discovered and it is important to reveal epidemiology and mechanisms of diabetes and its complications in order to successfully manage and control diabetes. According to the Committee of the Korean Diabetes Association on the Epidemiology of Diabetes Mellitus, only about one third of patients with diabetes was found to reach target glycemic control (<7% of HbA1c) and 30.3%, 38.3% and 44.6% of patients found to have microalbuminuria, retinopathy and nephropathy, respectively in tertiary hospitals of Korea in 2006. Also, prevalence of coronary artery disease, cerebrovascular disease and peripheral artery disease was 8.7%, 6.75 and 3.0%, respectively in tertiary hospitals. Due to inadequate achievement of glycemic control and improper prevention tactics to prevent diabetic complication for patients in tertiary hospitals in Korea, it is pivotal to determine and analyze the current status of patients with diabetes and prediabetes for efficient management of diabetes/prediabetes and its complications. Annual visits of newly diagnosed diabetes or prediabetes to Endocrinology department of Severance hospital in Korea are increasing, about 5,000 patients per year since 2017. However, there is no current systemic clinical registry involving patients with diabetes or prediabetes in Severance hospital. Therefore, in this prospective cohort study, we will establish registry for patients with diabetes or prediabetes who would perform standard blood/urine tests and follow treatment protocols in Endocrinology department of Severance hospital.
Although it has been suggested that selenium (Se) increases the risk of T2DM, most evidence comes from observational studies that cannot prove causality. A systematic review assessed randomized clinical trials and found that the risk of T2DM was not greater in those randomized to Se supplementation than in those randomized to placebo. Se is a toxic element in animals and humans, and overexposure to Se has also been linked to detrimental health effects in humans. Previous studies were mostly conducted in Se-sufficient areas. Moreover, the effectiveness of low-dose Se supplementation on participants with elevated glycemic status was unknown. This cross-over, double blinded, randomized controlled trail aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Se supplementation for glucose control among participants with diabetes or prediabetes. Moreover, we also aimed to examine whether selenoprotein P genotypes, Se-related gut microbiota and their related metabolite modified the effectiveness.
The study aims to evaluate the acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of a digital lifestyle intervention, called Fitness Digital (FitD), for individuals with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes.
The research will be carried out in order to investigate the effect of health education given to prediabetes patients by video conference method on self-management and exercise. The work will be carried out in two stages. In the first stage, the validity and reliability study of the Scale for Process of Exercise Engagement (SPEE) that was developed on prediabetes patients will be conducted and the scale will be adapted to the Turkish society. In the second stage, the effect of health education, which was prepared on the basis of the Transtheoretic Model and will be given by video conferencing, on the exercise status of prediabetes patients, on hunger, postprandial blood sugar, cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglyceride, blood pressure, HbA1c, BMI, weight, waist circumference measurements will be evaluated. In this research, the exercise change stages dimension of the Transtheoretic Model will be discussed and the trainings will be planned according to these stages.
