Filter by:Metabolic syndrome and resulting downstream health effects remains a growing health concern. In published trials, the use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) assists behavioral changes efforts, leading to improved adherence and results from diet and exercise changes in individuals with obesity, pre-diabetes and diabetes. Mobile health (mHealth) platforms provide satisfactory, easy-to-use tools that help participants in the pursuit of weight change goals. We hypothesize that the use of CGM data and targeted coaching and nutrition education will assist with weight optimization goals in the general (non-diabetic) population using the Signos mHealth platform, with associated health benefits.
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic disease with increasing incidence globally. It needs a comprehensive and continuous management approach that includes five pillars: education, nutritional management, physical activity, pharmacological treatment, and monitoring. To achieve good glycemic control, prevention of complications, and good quality of life as diabetes management goals, patients' capability to properly navigate diabetes management is a key. One evidence-based model to empower patients' self-management abilities is diabetes education and health coaching. Diabetes management at primary health care needs special concern since they play an important role in initial and continuing care for diabetes patients in the community. Therefore, the implementation of diabetes education and health coaching in primary health care is expected to improve the self-management abilities of people with diabetes
The goal is to develop methodology to monitor flux in the citric acid cycle in brain via 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy at 7 Tesla.
To compare the effects of different initial insulin dose regimens during the short-term insulin intensive treatment on time to glycemic goal, hypoglycemia prevalence, glycemic variability and other safety problems in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) patients, in order to investigate the rational of formula based initiation regimen.
This study aims to test the following hypotheses in a randomized controlled trial of post-partum women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) that will be followed up for up to 4 years: 1. Post-partum pregnancy is ideal for behavioural modification and adopting a healthy lifestyle. Using the continous glucose monitoring (CGM) sensor and an exercise tracker will promote self-motivation and awareness by positive reinforcement and behavioural changes to improve diet, control body weight and increase physical activity in this group of post-partum women who are at high risk for developing Type II Diabetes. 2. The use of the continous glycose monitoring (CGM) sensor and exercise tracker will motivate women to modify their dietary food intake and physical activity over time, reducing their cardiovascular risk factors for developing metabolic syndrome by lowering their baseline blood pressure, BMI, reducing their waist circumference and body fat mass, glycaemic levels and fasting lipids within the targeted healthy range. 3. There will be an increase in the quality adjusted life years (QALYs) gained based on improvements in HbA1C and other proximal outcomes at the end of the trial.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a food supplement, berberine phytosome, which contributes to the control of blood sugar and the improvement of insulin resistance.
This is a multi-center, open-label study to assess the feasibility and preliminary safety of the Endogenex Device for endoscopic duodenal mucosal regeneration in patients with type 2 Diabetes inadequately controlled on 2-3 non-insulin glucose-lowering medications.
Gestational diabetes is one of the most common medical disorders in pregnancy and is a major risk factor for the postpartum development of dysglycemia. Despite the high risk of developing dysglycemia, 50-80% of women with gestational diabetes are not receiving testing within a year postpartum. The investigators will conduct a prospective cohort study to examine the use of continuous glucose monitoring immediately postpartum to estimate the risk of maternal dysglycemia postpartum.
Different types of statins show different influences on glycometabolism. There are no systemic analyses of the effects that statins exert on the metabolism of glucoses so far in China. This research aims to compare impacts on the glycometabolism of pitavastatin in AMI patients with atorvastatin and to accumulate data for guiding the utilization of statins.
Researchers at Sansum Diabetes Research Institute want to learn more about how taking a new approved drug called oral Semaglutide, while eating fresh vegetables, impacts health in Hispanic/Latino adults with type 2 diabetes. This study drug is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration and may be available by prescription for type 2 diabetes. To do this, 100 Hispanic/Latino adults who have type 2 diabetes will be split into two groups. Over one year, one group will take Semaglutide pills and the other group will take a placebo (a dummy pill that looks just like the real Semaglutide pill but does not contain the active drug). Neither the participants nor the study investigator nor the study doctor will know who is taking the real pill and who is taking the placebo. In case of an emergency, however, the study investigator and doctor can get this information. All participants will receive pills and vegetables every two weeks, have their health assessed by study staff, and meet with the study doctor six times over the course of the study. Participant weight, height, waist circumference, blood pressure, and blood glucose levels will be measured. Participants will also wear monitors to measure blood glucose, physical activity and sleep. Study staff will also ask questions about participant health, medications, mood, sleep, pain, exercise, diet, acculturation, household, language, and trust in doctors.
