Filter by:To investigate the correlation between the mean glucose concentration measured by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and the estimated mean blood glucose from glycated haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in persons with type 2 diabetes and on chronic haemodialysis. Furthermore, the aim is to compare CGM and HbA1c with glycated albumin and fructosamine.
Glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1) is secreted during a meal and increases glucose induced insulin secretion. The enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase 4(DPP-4) cleaves intact GLP-1 within minutes and DPP-4 inhibitors are therefore used for treatment of diabetic hyperglycemia. A few animal studies have implicated the enzyme neutral endopeptidase 24.11 (24.11) in the degradation of GLP-1 but if this is the case in humans with type 2 diabetes is unknown. We therefore administered a NEP inhibitor, 194mg sacubitril, a DPP-4 inhibitor (sitagliptin 100mg the night before and 100mg 2 hours before), both, or placebo, to patients with type 2 diabetes during a standardized meal and measured plasma concentrations of GLP-1
This study will investigate if the effect of DPP-4 inhibitors is mediated in part by Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide.
It is a multicenter, open-label, parallel-group, randomized controlled clinical trial, which is designed to enroll newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients with overweight or obesity. The patients are randomized to an intensive diet intervention (intermittent very-low -calorie diet), enhanced physical activity intervention (high-intensity interval training exercise prescription combined with resistance training) or standard education group (diabetes health education only, including lifestyle education and guidance) for 12 weeks. This trial will test the primary hypothesis of whether an intensive lifestyle treatment (diet or physical activity) is more effective than a standard education in glycemic control. The secondary hypotheses are to compare the intensive lifestyle treatment with a standard education on adipose distribution, metabolic parameters, metabolic molecules, Framingham Risk Scores, and quality of life, et al.
Experimental models have linked lipid lowering therapies with systemic inflammation; however, relatively little is known about this network in clinical populations and specifically how it changes with PCSK9 inhibition. The eligible subjects will have 6 visits in 13 to 16 weeks and will have Repatha/placebo 140mg subcutaneous every 4 weeks for 3 times since randomization visit, blood tests will be done in each visit to evaluate the effects of evolocumab upon biocellular markers potentially altered by PCSK9 inhibition in a population of type 2 diabetes patients with microvascular dysfunction. Primary Aims: Determine the ACUTE and SHORT-TERM effects of PCSK9 inhibition with evolocumab on biocellular markers of inflammation, immune mediated thrombosis and rheology. The data from this trial will be used to support a clinical trial to assess the role of PCSK9 inhibition in type 2 diabetes patients with cardiac microvascular dysfunction. Secondary Aims: 1. To define the association between PCSK 9 concentrations and immune-related phenotype. 2. To define the association between Lp(a) concentrations, oxidized phospholipids (OxPL), ApoB, biocellular markers of inflammation, tissue factor and immunothrombosis.
A two-period randomized crossover study will be conducted to determine the effect of almond butter as an evening snack on fasting blood glucose in adults with type 2 diabetes, not taking insulin.
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease in developed countries affecting approximately 30 % of the general adult population. It represents an important pathogenic factor in the development of type 2-diabetes and is associated with a high risk of cardiovascular disease. Previous studies of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have demonstrated an increased risk for NAFLD and the presence of both CKD and NAFLD is likely to increase the risk for cardiovascular disease. The present protocol describes a study of the prevalence and etiology of NAFLD among patients with type 2-diabetes with CKD. The study is a cross-sectional study. Fat accumulation in the liver will be determined by Magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy and the prevalence of NAFLD among patients with type 2-diabetes with normal kidney function or CKD stage 3-5 will be investigated. A continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for four days, Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) scanning, fibro scanning of the liver, bile acid analysis, metabolomic and lipidomic analysis will also be performed.
The primary objective of STAR01 is to evaluate the performance and safety of the medical device (class IIb) SiPore15™ after a 12-week long treatment in the target population of obese and overweight subjects with prediabetes or newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes. The expected performance and safety of the device is based on the safety and efficacy results seen in an earlier First-in-Man (FIM) study. The safety and tolerability of SiPore15™ is based on the well-established and extensive use of food grade silicon dioxide and favorable data from the FIM study. Data on side-effects will be collected for verification of device safety. The study duration is 24 weeks in total, 12 weeks from baseline on investigational medicinal device (IMD) treatment, with additional 12 weeks off treatment. The study population is planned for forty (40) subjects to be enrolled, male and females, age >18 years and fulfilling all inclusion criteria but none of the exclusion criteria.
The overarching goal of the IMI DIRECT (Innovative Medicines Initiative Diabetes Research on Patient Stratification) Consortium is the identification of biomarkers that aid therapeutic targeting in prediabetes (Study 1) or early onset type 2 diabetes (Study 2).
This study is designed to explore the effect of feedback counseling using professional continuous glucose monitoring on glycemic control, self-efficacy, and self-management behaviors among middle aged and older adults with poor controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study also explores the difference on timing of feedback after continuous glucose monitoring exam.
