Filter by:The MATCH2 Study (The Multi-clinic Action Trial to Control Hyperglycemia and Hypertension) is a randomized controlled trial comparing two educational approaches to improve glucose and blood pressure control in African American and Latino adults with type 2 diabetes. The study is being designed and implemented using a Community Based Participatory Research approach to optimize the two educational approaches. One approach, Enhanced Home Based Education, adapts a Community Health Worker (CHW) intervention from the protocol of the prior Mexican-American Trial of Community Health workers (MATCH). The other approach, Enhanced Clinic Based Education, uses a Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE) to deliver dietary and general self-management education. The study seeks to determine if Community Health Workers working as part of the primary care clinical team can reduce health disparities and improve outcomes among patients with type 2 diabetes.
The objective of this study is to compare the therapeutic efficacy of three regimens of insulin NPH/fast for optimal glycemic control in non-critical hospitalized patients.
The purpose of this study is to compare sitagliptin with a placebo for the prevention of high glucose after general surgery.
Stress hyperglycaemia is a well-known risk factor of postoperative morbidity and mortality in cardiac surgery. Recently, several authors have reported that increased blood glucose (BG) variability could worsen the prognosis in this population.The transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a low invasive procedure proposed as an alternative technique to aortic valve replacement surgery in high-risk patients. The aim of this study is to describe the incidence of stress hyperglycaemia and assess whether BG variability could impact the outcome of patients undergoing TAVI.
Recent genetic association studies have identified variants in the Peptidyl-Glycine alpha-amidating mono-oxygenase (PAM) gene that increase the risk of diabetes likely through a defect in beta-cell function. This has been followed up and supported by novel kinetic assays and cellular studies. This investigation will recall heterozygous carriers of the risk allele at rs78408340 and age, BMI and gender matched controls from the Oxford Biobank. The study will compare the incretin effect, glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1), insulin, glucose levels and PAM protein activity in individuals both with and without the risk variant. The aim of the study is to gain mechanistic insight into the effect of the variant on human physiology and diabetes pathogenesis.
Objective: to gain experience in children and younger adolescents with in-home use of an algorithm that will dose insulin to minimize projected hyperglycemia overnight in addition to suspending the pump if hypoglycemia is projected overnight and to obtain feasibility, safety, and initial efficacy data Study Design: randomized controlled trial, with randomization on a night level within subject Patient Population: Youth 6.0 - <15 years old with type 1 diabetes treated with daily insulin therapy for at least one year and an insulin infusion pump for at least 6 months who have HbA1c < 10.0%. Sample Size: 30 subjects Study Duration and Visit Schedule: duration approximately 3 months, with preliminary run-in activities followed by up to 90 days spent in clinical trial phase of study; clinic visits at enrollment, following CGM and system assessment run-in phases, at start of clinical trial phase, at 21-day point of clinical trial phase, and after 42 nights of successful system use Major Efficacy Outcomes: - Primary: time in range (70-180 mg/dl, 3.9-10.0 mmol/L) overnight. - Secondary: time spent in hypoglycemia (<70 mg/dl, 3.9 mmol/L) and time spent in hyperglycemia (>180 mg/dl, 10.0 mmol/L) overnight. Major Safety Outcomes: CGM measures of hypo- and hyperglycemia, including morning blood glucose and mean overnight sensor glucose; adverse events including severe hypoglycemia and diabetic ketoacidosis
Amylose-amylopectin ratio may influence the rate of starch digestion. This randomized controlled study evaluated the postprandial metabolic effects of amylose-rich- wheat- based rusks in overweight subjects.
In this study, the investigators will test the hypothesis that acute in vivo exposure to hyperglycemia increases mitochondrial network fragmentation and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species production (ROS) production in human arterial endothelial cells.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of three approaches in diabetes management: (1) community health worker (CHW) education; (2) text messaging; and (3) usual hospital-based care. The goal is to determine the most cost-effective method of diabetes management among an economically-disadvantaged, minority population.
The present study determined the effect of Xylose consumption on postprandial hyperglycemia in normal (n=25) and hyperglycemic subjects (n=50).
