Filter by:The breath analysis (BreathSpec® device) data of all participants that were included into the VAARA study (NCT05771090) will be analysed, this includes data from up to 40 breath samples from each of the 10 participants who underwent 2 insulin-induced hypoglycaemic episodes during two visits. The primary objective is to find a possible association between volatile organic compounds (VOCs) measured by the BreathSpec® device and blood glucose. For this we will use descriptive statistics, correlation coefficients, as well as a Principal Component Analysis and a partial least squares discriminant analysis. Furthermore, the time lag between hypoglycaemia onset and change in VOCs will be quantified.
This study will examine the effects of type II diabetes on cognitive functions and mood in middle-aged patients. In addition, the association between cognitive functions and glycemic controls is studied in patients. Sixty patients and sixty healthy controls will be recruited and assessed by a multiprofessional team (neuropsychologist, physician).
This is a phase 2 crossover, randomized, placebo-controlled, single-blind, repeat dose study in PBH subjects to determine the effect of mizagliflozin on adverse events and postprandial glucose excursions.
In this within-subject cross-over study, the investigators hypothesize that corn-starch based supplements taken prior to exercise will decrease the risk of delayed hypoglycemia in adolescents with T1D, improve performance during exercise, and decrease glycemic variability during exercise.
Patients with diabetes have an increased risk of sudden cardiac death compared to the general population. Severe hypoglycemia is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease (CVD) and events, including cardiac arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death; likewise, increased glycemic variability is associated with macrovascular complications and increased mortality. The physiological mechanisms linking hypoglycemia and glycemic variability to CVD and CV events remain unclear. Myocardial work and mechanical dyssynchrony will be measured by speckle tracking echocardiography during euglycemia, hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia in individuals with type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and without diabetes. Echocardiographic images from three experimental clamp studies - Hypo-Heart 1 (sub-study 1), Hypo-Heart 2 (sub-study 2) and Rapid-Heart - will be included in this study.
The project will evaluate 1) the postprandial metabolism and 2) continuous glucose levels in subjects diagnosed with Idiopathic Ketotic Hypoglycemia (IKH)) and healthy control subjects.
This study is to analyze whether the SGLT2-inhibitor empagliflozin or the IL-1 receptor antagonist anakinra may improve postprandial hypoglycemia in subjects with prediabetes.
An experimental mechanistic study. The overall objective is to gain new knowledge about mechanisms involved in adaptation to recurrent hypoglycaemia in diabetes by investigating patients with type 1 diabetes and healthy controls. The knowledge to be obtained may feed into experimental hypoglycaemic clamp studies to further elucidate the effect of the adaptations during acute hypoglycaemia. Ultimately, it may lead to intervention studies aiming at the maintenance of functional capability during hypoglycaemia in patients with type 1 diabetes to reduce their risk of severe hypoglycaemia.
Cancer patients with known or newly diagnosed (i.e. iatrogenic) Diabetes Mellitus (DM) in Palliative/Supportive Care will be enrolled. Patients will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. Patients included in the first group will monitor glucose levels through Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM), using the FreeStyle Libre 2 (FSL2). The second group is represented by the usual standard way for blood glucose (BG) monitoring (lancing device for finger samples). An interim analysis is foreseen when the half of the expected events (hyperglycemic peaks) will be observed. In case the results of interim analysis show superiority of the CGM (FSL2) group patients of the second group will be switched.
Severe hypoglycemia is the most feared complication of medications used to lower blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes. Severe hypoglycemia, defined as plasma glucose low enough to require assistance, has been linked to poor health-related quality of life, emotional and interpersonal challenges, car accidents, serious falls, cardiovascular events, dementia, and death. Older adults with type 2 diabetes are particularly vulnerable to the complications of severe hypoglycemia. Each year, approximately 11% of patients with type 2 diabetes self-report severe hypoglycemia episodes. An estimated 14% of emergency hospitalizations of older Americans for adverse drug events implicate insulin and 11% implicate oral hypoglycemic agents. One in four diabetes-related hospital admissions is for hypoglycemia. This study will compare two ways to reduce severe hypoglycemia in people with type 2 diabetes. The two methods to be compared are: 1. Proactive care management. This will be a nurse outreach call which is similar to the usual care that people with type 2 diabetes get to reduce their risk of severe hypoglycemia, but given in advance rather than in response to a recent severe hypoglycemia event. 2. The same proactive care management (nurse outreach call) plus enrollment in my hypo compass, a health education program aimed at improving awareness of hypoglycemia and preventing severe hypoglycemia. This program has been shown to reduce severe hypoglycemia in people with type 1 diabetes but has not been tested in persons with type 2. Our hypothesis is that proactive care management plus my hypo compass will be more effective than proactive care management alone at preventing self-reported severe hypoglycemia in adults with type 2 diabetes at high risk for severe hypoglycemia. The primary outcome will be measured using surveys at the beginning of the study and 14-months later.
