View clinical trials related to Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
Filter by:Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease caused by inherited and/or acquired deficiency in production of insulin by the pancreas, or by the ineffectiveness of the insulin produced. It has become a major healthcare problem in India. High-quality, low-cost solutions adapted to the local context are critical to addressing the current crisis in the management of diabetes. Herbal tea consists of tulsi, guava and stevia, which has glucose lowering properties.The aim of this trial is to study the effect of a herbal tea in the glycemic response in the early type 2 diabetes.
Saudi Arabia has the highest prevalence (24%) of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among the modern nation states in the world. In addition, majority of Saudi diabetic patient do not have their blood glucose controlled. Data suggests that diet, rich in olive oil and nuts, significantly reduces fasting plasma glucose and HbA1c (glycated hemoglobin). Olive oil has been associated with weight reduction as well as improvements in lipid profile (increase in high density (HDL) and decrease in low-density lipoprotein (LDL)). No randomized controlled trial has specifically examined the effect of olive oil as a supplement on blood glucose among diabetics. The study objective is to test the effect of daily consumption (30 mL) of extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) on HbA1c among patients with type 2 diabetes.
This randomised controlled trial aims to investigate a resistance training program for improving glycemic control, muscle mass, strength and functional performance in older patients with Type II Diabetes (T2 DM). 60 subjects will be randomly allocated to either a muscle strengthening group or a no exercise control group. Muscle strengthening group will receive resistance training 3 times per week (1 hour/session). The control group will not receive any training but can continue usual medical care and daily activities. Primary outcomes: glycemic control and lipid profile Secondary outcomes: muscle mass and strength, and functional capacity Data will be collected at baseline (pre-test) and after a 4-month intervention (post-test).
Two hundreds patients with T2DM from the outpatient clinic of The First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University will be enrolled in this study. Participating subjects will be randomly assigned into one of the 2 groups: Group A (n=100) will be placed on the short-term intensive education program alone while Group B (n=100) will be placed on the short-term intensive education as well as a holistic management for 6 months. Diabetes education: The patients of each group will undergo designated education programs in 4 subgroups. Group A and B will be given the same education classes once a week in the first month (total 4 times), 5 hours per class. The education classes will be taught by a dedicated team of diabetes specialist doctors and nurses, with the contents including a basic understanding of diabetes, diabetic diet, exercise, drug treatments and blood glucose monitoring. At the conclusion of the education classes, the patients in Group B then will undergo a weekly telephone interview with specialist nurses for 6 months to help patients resolve self-management problems while patients in Group A will not. The specialist nurses will talk individually with the patients in Group B for 10-15 min per week. The nurses will ask the patients about their results of self-blood glucose monitoring, help them find the reasons of poor blood glucose control as well as answer the patient's questions. Clinical examination: All subjects will complete Audit of Diabetes Dependent Quality of Life (ADDQoL) before education classes commence (baseline), at 3 months and 6 months (endpoint) after education classes to evaluate their quality of life. All patients will be examined for height, weight, blood pressure, FPG, PPG and HbA1c at baseline, 3 months after education classes and endpoint. A diabetes specialist nurse will measure the height, weight and blood pressure, and assist the subjects to fill the questionnaire. FPG and PPG will be determined by the hexokinase method, while HbA1c by high performance liquid chromatography.
Prevalence of diabetes is increasing rapidly both in China and all over the world.Hyperglycemia is an important risk factor and major hazard to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and even dangerous to human health."High glucose toxicity "cause pancreatic β cell non-physiologic and irreversible damage.It is an important cause of β cell dysfunction.High glucose toxicity further suppresses insulin secretion of β cell, further even β-cell function failure.It is urgent to explore more effective and safety treatments which can also protect islet cells function.How to release high glucose toxicity , reverse the toxic effects of hyperglycemia on islet β cells as early as possible, and to maximize recover and protect the pancreatic β cell function is the keypoints of this study.Our aim is to explore the non-inferiority of new antidiabetic drugs DPP4 inhibitors on releasing glucose toxicity and protecting islet β cell function compared with traditional treatments on newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes,compare efficacy and safety of different oral antidiabetic drugs and insulin on newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients with high glucose toxicity and compare differences of different oral antidiabetic drugs and insulin on protecting pancreatic β-cell function.
The purpose of this study is to obtain information on efficacy and safety of SHR3824 over 24 weeks and 52 weeks in Chinese patients with Type 2 Diabetes. This will be done by comparing the effect of SHR3824 to placebo when given in oral doses.
Background: Distal symmetric polyneuropathy (DSPN) is the most common complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and the most common form of peripheral neuropathy. DSPN increases the risk of foot ulceration up to seven-fold, and is a significant risk factor in more than 60% of the amputations of the lower limbs in patients with T2DM. Reportedly, TCM may have some advantages in relieving symptoms and reducing the incidence of DSPN exacerbations.We postulate that patients with DSPN will benefit from therapy with TCM treatment according to syndrome differentiation. Methods and design: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled and multi-centric clinical trial design was used on the basis of a co-regimen of mecobalamin. Subjects who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into two groups. The patients in the study group were treated with Tangbi prescription, and the patients in the control group were treated with placebo. Treatment was scheduled for 24 weeks. The sample size was 188 cases.Major evaluation indicators: Changes in Clinical Symptoms and Signs in Distal Symmetrical Polyneuropathy patients.The clinical symptoms and signs of patients were recorded by Michigan Diabetic Neuropathy Score(MDNS), and the changes of Michigan Diabetic Neuropathy Score(MDNS) were compared between the two groups before and after medication. Secondary Evaluation Indicators:① nerve conduction velocity changes, The changes in nerve conduction velocity of each nerve were compared before and after taking medicine.② Clinical symptoms and signs change, The clinical symptoms and signs of the patients were compared before and after taking the medicine. Discussion: We postulate that patients with DSPN will benefit from therapy with TCM treatment.
This study evaluates the more suitable treatment for the prevention of vascular complications in diabetes patents who were at high cardiovascular risk group by comparing the platelet aggregation inhibitory effect of aspirin and cilostazol.
Introduction: in the course of the research, the investigators will develop a decision-support system (comorbidity-DSS) consisting (1) a knowledge base (KB) consisting of (a) computer-interpretable clinical guidelines for type 2 diabetes and 2 other diseases from: obstructive pulmonary disease, osteoporosis, hypertension, and osteoarthritis; and (b) an ontology of relevant general medical knowledge that could complement (a) in order to propose non conflicting treatment options not mentioned in the clinical practice guidelines; and (2) an algorithm that matches the KB with a patient's data set to identify the guidelines-based recommendations applicable for the patient and their interactions and which proposes ways to mitigate conflicting interactions (e.g., suggesting to select intervention A.2 (instead of A.1) from guideline A and intervention B.3 (instead of B.1) from guideline B together with an action B' mentioned in the general medical knowledge, because these interventions are not conflicting yet A.3 fulfills the same goals as intervention A.1 and intervention B.3 + B' together fulfill the same goal as B.1). Research purpose: Assessing the correctness and completeness of detection of recommendation-interaction and generation of conflict-free recommendations by a comorbidity-DSS Research question: How will the usage of the comorbidity-DSS affect the completeness and correctness of clinicians regarding (a) detection of interactions between recommendations originating from different clinical guidelines applicable for patients with comorbidities and (b) identification of interventions that fulfill the guidelines' goals and are not conflicting.
Objectives: This study is aimed to assess whether Tianqi Capsule interventions have a long-term effect on the risk of diabetes and provide evidence that early intervention by traditional Chinese medicine could delay the progression from impaired glucose tolerance to diabetes. Study contents: 1.420 participants were followed up for 8 years to assess the long-term effect of Tianqi Capsule. Phone-call followed up was applied to investigate the status of impaired glucose tolerance and orthoglycemic survivors until the end of REDUCES study. 2.To participants that determined the status of glucose metabolism, a variety of ways were used to find the evidence of diagnosis of glucose metabolic status, such as glycemia laboratory sheets from normal hospitals, medical records, the use of antidiabetic drugs or insulin injection, etc. 3. To participants that undiagnosed the status of glucose metabolism, oral glucose tolerance test, blood pressure, weight and blood biochemical analysis were performed to assess the state of glucose metabolism. 4. Questionnaires were given to all the participants to investigate their condition of treatment, diet, exercise and other lifestyle.
