View clinical trials related to Type II Diabetes Mellitus.
Filter by:Diabetes is defined by the level of hyperglycemia its a metabolic chronic disorder that furthur lead to life threatning medical conditions however, the prevalence of diabetes is rapidly increasing day by day in both developed and developing countries making it global pandemic and type II is more prevalent. Life dependency is increased due to long term effects of diabetes in specifically older individuals. Physical activity and exercise improves glucose tolerance and also reduces other life threatening diabetic complications, improving the quality of life in diabetic population.
Oleanolic acid (OA), is a natural component of many plant food and medicinal herbs, which has shown to exert in experimental models hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic effects, and also a cytoprotective action against oxidative and chemotoxic stress underlying Type II Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM).Today it is known that OA shares mechanisms of action with metformin and other drugs of choice for the treatment of diabetes. Therefore, the OLTRAD (OLeanolic acid TReAtment for type 2 Diabetes) Study, a prospective, parallel group, randomized, double-blind, controlled trial with 100 participants, has been designed to demonstrate that the regular intake of an OA-enriched functional olive oil is effective as an adjuvant to metformin antidiabetic drug therapy. The hypothesis is that the inclusion of this functional olive oil in the diet will enhance the effects of the pharmacological treatment in diabetic patients, and may even reduce the need for prescription of such medications.
Study Objective To evaluate the safety and tolerability of Empagliflozin with or without metformin in patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus in the Pakistani population. Study design Open-label, prospective, observational, single arm, multi-center, post-marketing surveillance study. Sample size The estimated sample size will be n=156. Duration of study 12 months (data lock point will be completion of 6 months' follow-up from the time of last patient's enrollment date) Safety Assessment: Patient will be monitored for Hypoglycemia, Dehydration, Hypotension, Urinary Tract Infections, Fungal Infections, Nausea, Vomiting, Diarrhea, Abdominal Discomfort, Flatulence, Asthenia, Indigestion and Other side effects (if any). Follow up visits: After recruitment, patient is supposed to have three visits for follow-ups. Visit 1: 4 to 6 weeks of initiation of therapy. Visit 02: At 12 weeks of initiation of therapy. Visit 03: At 24 weeks of initiation of therapy. LABORATORY TESTING: Reputable Lab is considered for laboratory testing of diabetes patients i.e. HbA1C%, FBG, RFT and urine R/E. The certified clinical lab will be responsible for receiving and analyzing clinical sample. Patients will have special discount of upto 50% for study related laboratory investigations. Where in Urine Routine Examination (Urine R/E), we consider as follows: - Visual Examination: - Urine color: Normal (Yellow), Pale Yellow, Dark Yellow, Brown, Red or Pink or any other. - Urine clarity: Clear, slightly Cloudy, cloudy or turbidity - Chemical Examination: - Specific gravity - pH - Bilirubin - Urobilinogen - Protein - Ketone - Leukocyte Esterase - Microscopic Examination: - Red Blood Cells: - Epithelial Cells: - Amorphous: - Pus Cells - Bacteria - Yeast - Casts - Crystals Where in Renal Function Test (RFT), we consider as follows: - Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN): mg/dL - Serum Creatinine: mg/dL - Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR): mL/min/1.73 m2
This study will determine whether rotating intravenous (IV) fluid is better than receiving insulin to control a baby's blood sugar after delivery in laboring women with diabetes. A computer will choose the method of controlling the participant's blood sugar while they are in labor.
Evaluation of using 2h-UG combined with FPG, AGEsP alone or in combination with FPG in diabetes screening in Chinese natural population
Mitochondrial dysfunction in skeletal muscle results in decreased muscle fatty acid oxidation, leading to conversion of fatty acids into triglycerides and its accumulation inside the muscle tissue. Moreover, in adipose tissue mitochondrial dysfunction results in decreased fatty acid oxidation and triglyceride synthesis, leading to increased circulating fatty acid concentrations, which in turn also leads to lipid accumulation inside muscle tissue. Lipid accumulation inside muscle tissue interferes with the insulin signaling pathway and causes insulin resistance. Mitochondrial dysfunction in both tissues has therefore been proposed to play an important role in insulin resistance in humans. Pioglitazone, a thiazolidinedione, is an FDA approved medication for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. It improves muscle insulin sensitivity at least in part by lowering intramuscular lipid concentrations but the mechanism by which this occurs is unclear. In the present study, we shall therefore test the hypothesis that pioglitazone improves mitochondrial function in muscle and adipose tissue in humans who are insulin resistant.
Although intensive medical treatment of diabetes has clearly been demonstrated to be worthwhile, it has not been a total success in diabetes treatment for a variety of reasons including lack of response to medication. Diabetes has been well demonstrated as a co-morbidity illness of obesity patients. In observation, with exclusion stomach and duodenum of bariatric surgery (gastric bypass), most morbidly obese patients (about 80%) with diabetes had a significant improved of sugar control. Base of this observation, we will try to find out the role surgical intervention (gastric bypass & sleeve gastrectomy) in obese-related diabetes.
