Filter by:Obesity and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus prevalence has doubled in the last 30 years and nearly one fifth of UAE population has Type 2 Diabetes while more than quarter has obesity. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is present in more than 30% of patients with type 2 diabetes and in > 50% patient with obesity 20% of patients with Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease progress to develop non-alcoholic steatohepatitis which can lead to liver failure and hepatocellular carcinoma. This study aims to use GLP-1 analogue to see effects on liver fat deposition after six months of treatment There is no current randomised study on treatment of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis in United Arab Emirates population; so once completed this will the first study. This study will pave the way for developing a treatment pathway for patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
The goal of this research study is to evaluate a programme that is based on Compassionate Mind Training (CMT) over four-weeks. The programme intends to share information and strategies to reduce diabetes distress, self-criticism, and shame, and improve physical health in people who have Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
The goal of this study is to investigate to what extent a 12-week training course for people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) or MODY can be conducted in a clinical context with clinically relevant improvements in cardiometabolic risk factors and quality of life? The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To investigate the feasibility of supervised training for people with T2DM or MODY in a clinical context in Greenland. 2. To investigate evidence of the effect of combined aerobic and strength training on cardiometabolic risk factors and mental well-being. 3. To investigate the signs of efficacy and different interactions with the type of disease.
The purpose of this 6-month randomized clinical trial is to examine the feasibility of recruitment, attendance, retention, program adherence, and satisfaction of a digital application designed, Centering Appetite to improve glucose scores (HbA1c) and binge eating in African American adults with type 2 diabetes. Intervention participants will receive type 2 diabetes education and web-based lessons on appetite self-regulation. Participants will also receive a Fitbit to monitor daily physical activity. The investigators will follow up with participants at six months.
The main purpose of this study is to explore experiences and understand the unmet needs of people with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) among those who are being managed with basal insulin and those who are insulin naïve in order to understand perspectives for a once weekly insulin option; including any potential barriers to being managed with insulin therapy overall. Study participants will be recruited to complete a 15-minute self-administered online survey.
Diet interventions (e.g., low-energy diets) are recommended as a treatment for obesity, obese patients with osteoarthritis, hypertension (HTN), and type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, these diets are not a common part of the care plan partly because it is not financially feasible to discuss and offer them in medical offices reimbursed with the standard fee-for-service model. New reimbursement models, like value-based care (VBC), exist. It may be financially feasible to offer diet interventions, like premade and delivered meal plans to address these medical issues. This pilot study will help determine if a more extensive prospective study of the clinical effects of a delivered, premade low-energy diet (LED) on clinical markers of these disorders, as well as future cost-benefit analyses. Methods: A case series of five obese subjects with knee osteoarthritis, HTN, and T2D receive a LED for 12 weeks. The primary outcome is the change in the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) at 12 weeks. Secondary outcome measures include the change in other patient-reported outcomes between the start and end of the study, changes in weight, changes in measures of HTN and T2D, and the proportion of subjects using non-protocol interventions. Hypothesis: Subjects randomized to the diet intervention will demonstrate a clinically significant improvement in NRPS score (2 points), a clinically significant weight reduction (15%), a 50% improvement in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, 1.0% reduction in Hemoglobin A1C levels (HgA1C), and lower utilization of non-protocol treatments at 12 weeks.
In this study, the investigators will utilize community organizations to screen Hispanics/Latino(a)s for kidney disease, diabetes, and other risk factors, and refer them for care with a PCP. Additionally, the investigators will implement an intervention in local health clinics to assist PCPs with screening and treating patients with diabetes. Completion of the project will hopefully slow progression of kidney disease among Hispanic/Latino(a) patients in Durham, and the information gained will allow the investigators to eventually perform the intervention on a larger scale.
This research study will test how a computer program (called the Hope App) teaches diabetes care skills for older adults with diabetes. The study will compare those who receive diabetes education (10 educational modules and monthly health coaching) through the research program with those who receive care as usual.
Diabetes is a broad-spectrum metabolic disorder that causes a defect in the organism's carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism processes due to insulin deficiency or impaired insulin effect. Diabetes requires continuous medical care and causes chronic, severe mortality and morbidity. More than 90% of all people with diabetes worldwide suffer from Type 2 DM. Diabetes self-management includes self-monitoring of blood glucose levels, knowing and managing the symptoms of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia, adherence to diet, physical exercise, and diabetic foot care. Considering the high prevalent and undesirable consequences of diabetes in the world, it is necessary to benefit from new educational technologies and tools. One of these technologies is gamification, which increases the quality of education as an effective educational tool, creates motivation and enthusiasm, and develops a sense of competition in the target audience. This study plans to develop a game that will include virtual coaching to increase the self-management and glycemic control of patients with type 2 diabetes.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the use of an exercise phone application and a continuous glucose monitor and their impact on metabolic disease in adolescents with obesity, prediabetes and Type 2 diabetes. Participants will be asked to wear a continuous glucose monitor (Freestyle Libre) and if they are in the intervention group also participate in using an exercise phone application as well as have scheduled interval contact with a health professional in between scheduled clinic visits to assess how they are reaching their goals.
