Filter by:Vascular calcification (VC) is a complication frequently observed in elderly, in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and in diabetes (particularly in type 1 diabetes). VC is a dynamic pathophysiological process that causes cardiovascular morbidity and is an independent risk factor of major amputation. In vitro and human observational studies have suggested a role of metformin in preventing VC. The investigators propose to test the effect of metformin treatment during two years on lower limb arterial calcification evaluated by CT-scan in patients with type 1 diabetes and without CKD. This research is a phase III double blind randomized controlled trial consisting of 2 years double-blind treatment phase (patients randomized to metformin or placebo) in type 1 diabetic patients. The participants and the investigators will be blinded to the study medications taken during the double-blind treatment period
During the current unusual situation with COVID-19 pandemic and the lockdown applied in most of the countries, school students were kept at home and offered e-learning modules and all activities were suspended. Lockdown entails significant modifications of life style, involving changes in physical activities, dietary habits and nutrition, which are likely to impact glycemic control. So the aim of the current study is to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on glycemic control among children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
This study designed to assess changes in control of Type 1 Diabetes in pubertal adolescents over a two year period. There are two arms/substudies, the first being a longitudinal randomized controlled trial and the second an observational study.
Up to 40% of adults with type 1 diabetes have insufficient sleep which is associated with negative health consequences including poor blood glucose control and greater diabetes complications. In this study, a sleep intervention (Sleep-Opt) that uses wearable sleep tracking technology, telephone coaching and informational content designed to improve sleep and glycemic control in working-age adults with type 1 diabetes. Sleep-Opt could lead to reduced development of diabetes complications and improve quality of life for adults with type 1 diabetes.
In partnership with Helmsley Charitable Trust, the Sanford PLEDGE Study is a large-scale, observational, feasibility study of general population screening for T1D and celiac autoantibodies. Screening is incorporated into routine health care visits within an integrated health system.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the presence of residual insulin secretion in patients with DM1 and its correlation with the possible protection against early microvascular and macrovascular complications, emphasizing on the functionality of the myocardium.
This study is to investigate breath analysis (breath metabolomics) combined with established bioinformatic tools as a platform for companion diagnostics.
The proposed study is designed to test the hypothesis that treatment of resveratrol for 12 weeks will improve both endothelin-B receptor (aim 1) and skeletal muscle mitochondrial function (aim 2) in people with type 1 diabetes.
SWEET-REGISTRY is a multi center, investigator initiated registry in patients with diabetes. SWEET' is an acronym derived from 'Better control in Pediatric and Adolescent diabeteS: Working to crEate CEnTers of Reference'. Having the vision of equal quality care for all children with diabetes the mission of SWEET is to harmonize care to optimize outcomes of children with diabetes worldwide. Initiated with support of the EU Public Health Program in 2008 the SWEET group has over 10 years of experience in creating and sustaining a high quality professional network based on agreed standards of care, criteria for certification, international guidelines and quality control. While originally focusing on the European region, SWEET is currently expanding and has received increasingly global attention, with centers across different continents including Asia, Africa, North and South-America. SWEET extracts wherever possible the data from existing data collection sources and following longitudinally unselected clinical populations of all pediatric diabetes patients as an ongoing measure of benchmarking and a quality control cycle as well as a resource for scientific studies and collaborative research. The SWEET registry was approved by the ethical committee of Hannover Medical School and is associated with the AUF DER BULT Diabetes Centre for Children and Adolescents, Hannover, Germany, which coordinates the SWEET collaboration. Each center has to meet specific entry criteria showing diabetes expertise and compliance with the International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes (ISPAD) clinical practice guidelines. The local institutional review boards of the participating centers approved the pseudonymized data collection.
Dysbiosis is associated with an increased risk of preeclampsia during pregnancy. The microbiome differs between those with and without type 1 diabetes and the cause of type 1 diabetes has been associated with dysbiosis. Increased knowledge of the microbiome and its variation, depending on the state of health during pregnancies complicated with type 1 diabetes, could in the future lead to preventive care and treatments during these pregnancies.
