Filter by:The purpose of this study is to look at feasibility (the likelihood) of continued use of the FreeStyle Libre 2 Continuous glucose monitor (CGM) when started at the time of hospital discharge in patients with poorly controlled diabetes and to look at the effects of CGM use on blood glucose control and quality of life. Additional information will be collected to determine the barriers to continuing CGM use after discharge. The investigators will also collect information to see how well blood glucose has been controlled after discharge while utilizing the CGM.
The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the short term effects of single dose AP green tea extracts in subjects with BMI (< 30 kg/m2) and fasting glucose level of > 100 mg/dL after high-fat/high-carbohydrate meal.
A multi-center, randomized, prospective, non-significant risk study to compare the impact of the FreeStyle Libre Flash Glucose Monitoring System with and without a food logging smartphone application on reducing time above 180 mg/dL in subjects with type 2 diabetes who are not adequately controlled on their existing oral anti-diabetes medication regimen.
Introduction: Glycemic control in acutely ill stroke patients with hyperglycemia is vital. Although insulin is the choice of anti-diabetic agent during acute stage, it is not clear which insulin regimen is better in terms of glycemic control and prevention of hypoglycemia in hospitalized acute stroke patients who are usually on small frequent nasogastric tube feeding. The present study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of human insulin (regular insulin and neutral protamine hagedorn, NPH insulin) to analog insulin (basal insulin glargine and rapid acting insulin aspart) in hospitalized acute stroke patients with hyperglycemia. Justification: Analog insulins are developed by minor alteration of the amino acid chain which alters their pharmacokinetics and make them more physiological. However, these insulins are costly and are not widely available. Conventional human insulins are more commonly used in our country. Comparison of these two regimen is necessary in our own setting to optimize optimal glycemic management of hospitalized acute stroke patients. Methodology: In this single-center, open-label, randomized trial, 100 patients with acute stroke and hyperglycemia (capillary blood glucose ≥10 mmol/L on 2 or more occasions) or history of type 2 DM admitted in the in-patient Department of Neurology, National Institute of Neurosciences (NINS) & Hospital will be randomly assigned to receive human insulin or modern insulin therapy in 1:1 ratio. The study will be carried out from February to June 2021. Blood glucose (BG) will be monitored by standardized glucometer thrice a day and insulin dose will be adjusted daily. The primary outcome of the study will be the differences in glycemic control between groups, as measured by mean daily BG concentration during the hospital stay. Secondary outcomes include differences between treatment groups in any of the following measures: number of hypoglycemic events (BG <3.9 mmol/L), total daily dose of insulin, length of hospital stay, hospital complications and mortality.
Fibersym® is a RS4-type resistant modified wheat starch in which over 85% of the total starch is resistant starch as measured by AOAC method 991.43. It is meant to be consumed on a regular basis and doses up to 33g/day can be tolerated. The effect of a Fibersym-containing meal on postprandial glucose and insulin levels when compared to a control meal, where both meals contain the same amount of available carbohydrate, is not known. This study therefore investigated the acute effect of a Fibersym cookie and a control cookie matched for available carbohydrate after a 3-day habituation period.
Use of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (RT-CGM) systems in inpatient settings especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, may allow hospital staff to remotely monitor glucose while reducing viral exposure and preserving use of PPE. RT-CGM may be of benefit to inpatients with unstable glycaemia and at risk of severe hypoglycaemia, as it can automatically alert the treating clinical team of hypo and hyperglycaemia. This is of clinical relevance as up to 45% of inpatients with diabetes were found to have asymptomatic hypoglycaemia events in hospital, especially overnight. It may therefore provide a safer method of monitoring glycaemia in hospital compared to conventional bedside capillary glucose testing, by minimising the likelihood of hyper- and hypoglycaemic events and their known associated worse outcomes. The aim of this pilot study is to to demonstrate that use of Dexcom G6 RT-CGM may provide a safer and effective method of monitoring glycemia in hospital. Data from this pilot study will be used to design and implement a larger multi-centre pivotal trial.
The overall objective of this study is to explore the glycemic index and glycemic load induced by an alcohol-free beer with modified composition (including almost full fermentation of carbohydrates and the addition of isomaltulose and a resistant maltodextrin), as well as its postprandial metabolic response, compared to the effect induced by: a) an alcohol-free beer with a usual composition; b) an alcohol-free beer with modified composition (including almost full fermentation of carbohydrates and the addition of a resistant maltodextrin). This study includes two cross-over sub-studies recruiting healthy participants. In the first one, 10 healthy volunteers receive 25 g of carbohydrates coming from: regular alcohol-free beer (RB), alcohol-free beer with almost completely eliminated maltose and enriched with isomaltulose (2.5 g/100 mL) and a resistant maltodextrin (0.8 g/100 mL) (IMB), alcohol-free beer with the same maltose removal enriched with resistant maltodextrin (2.0 g/100 mL) (MB) and glucose solution. In the second study, 20 healthy volunteers are provided with 50 g of carbohydrates from white bread and water and the same meal plus 14.3 g of carbohydrates coming from: RB, IMB, MB and extra white bread. Blood is sampled at baseline and for 2 h, every 15 min, after ingestion.
The aim of this study is to investigate the correlation between preterm birth, glucose level in the first two hours of life and health related quality of life in the age of 8 months and 7 years
A few studies show the effect of almonds on postprandial hyperglycemia (PPHG); high blood glucose after meals. In our previous study on intervention with almonds, we observed a significant decrease in HbA1C and a small decrease in fasting blood glucose indicating a possible effect of almonds on PPHG. Studies have shown that a preload of a food article that is high in protein, mono-unsaturated fatty acids, fiber, and low in carbohydrates, such as almonds could be helpful in stimulating insulin secretion and help improve postprandial hyperglycemia. The proposed study shall be undertaken to assess the effect of almond supplementation on postprandial hyperglycemia in Asian Indians with prediabetes.
This study aims to learn more about avoidance of hyperglycaemia in adults with type 1 diabetes. People who attend a type 1 diabetes clinic will be invited to complete a number of self-report questionnaires and a survey. A subsection of people who experience avoidance of hyperglycaemia will be invited to take part in an interview in order to gain a more in-depth understanding of this issue.
