Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1"

This study planned to learn more about women and how the drop in estradiol levels during menopause may affect their cardiovascular risk. With aging, the arteries that are located around the heart get stiffer, and this increase in arterial stiffness can lead to a number of health problems such as high blood pressure and heart disease. In this study, the investigators examined whether a short-term drop in estrogen levels caused arteries to become stiffer, and explored potential reasons for stiffening arteries.

The purpose of this study is to compare the time spent in glucose target range (4.0-10.0 mmol/L) during exercise and in recovery using three different management strategies for prolonged aerobic exercise: A) carbohydrate dose of 0.3g/kg/hr; B) A 50 percent basal rate reduction, performed 90-minutes in advance of exercise for the duration of the activity; and C) A 50 percent basal rate reduction, performed at exercise onset, with carbohydrate dose of 0.3g/kg/hr

Measurement algorithm control and optimization with subsequent performance evaluation of Sanmina biosensors in monitoring of glucose, heart rate (HR), and SpO2 in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes during a standardized meal experiment.

Inhibitors of sodium-dependent glucose-transporter 2 (SGLT-2 inhibitors, including dapagliflozin) inhibit glucose reabsorption in renal tubular cells, hereby increasing glycosuria in the hyperglycemic state. Its mechanisms of action are independent of insulin, which makes SGLT-2 inhibitors a potential adjunct to insulin in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). However, a higher risk for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) was reported in patients with T1DM taking SGLT-2 inhibitors. DKA depends on an accumulation of ketone bodies in the blood stream, which equals an accumulation of acids that lead to acidosis. The underlying mechanisms of this observation are unknown. Ketone body production depends on the molar ratio of glucagon to insulin, with insulin suppressing but glucagon stimulating ketone body production. This translates into higher production during relative insulin deficiency, carbohydrate deficiency, and prolonged fasting, which occurs during sickness but also physical exercise. Physical exercise is a recommended cornerstone in the treatment of T1DM and current treatment guidelines recommend both, reductions of insulin doses and ingestion of additional carbohydrates to avoid hypoglycemic events. These adaptions might increase relative insulin deficiency, hyperglycemia and glycaemic variability, which might in turn promote ketone body production. The addition of SGLT-2 inhibitors further may promote ketogenesis even though there are reports of SGLT-2 inhibitors increase Glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) in patients with T1DM. GLP-1 is a suppressor of glucagon secretion. In summary, knowledge about the effects of SGLT-2 inhibition on ketone body production is scarce, especially during exercise in patients with T1DM. The study seeks to illustrate the effect of SGLT-2 inhibition on glycemic variability and ketone body production during and after recreational exercise in patients with T1DM. The results of study 2 will provide the basis for future studies investigating the underlying mechanisms of potentially modified ketone body production during and after exercise under SGLT-2 inhibition.

The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility and efficacy of a community-based culinary nutrition education program (Diabetes Inspired Culinary Education, DICE) on improving the diabetes management and dietary intake of 6-14 year old children with type I diabetes mellitus (TIDM).

The study was conducted to determine the effect of Roy adaptation model-based education on disease compliance and metabolic control in adolescents with Type 1 diabetes.

Insulclock® is a small electronic device developed to facilitate the optimal administration of insulin. This device works as an add-on module of commercially available insulin pens and monitors the date, time and dose of injections, the type of insulin injected, the duration of injections and insulin temperature. The Insulclock 360 app allows automatic data logging, report generation and reminder setting, among other functions. In this study, we pretend to show the clinical impact of Insulclock system, both device and mobile application, on glycemic indices, treatment compliance, and quality of life in patients with persistent poorly controlled T1DM. Material and methods: Randomized open-label multicenter controlled trial to evaluate glycemic control, the number of missed and delayed insulin doses, and quality of life after seven weeks of Insulclock 360 use in participants with uncontrolled DM1. We will also compare these results between patients with or without receiving system reminders and alerts. This study aims to assess the effect of Insulclock on glycemic control, treatment adherence, and quality of life. As a secondary objective, we will compare the study outcomes between participants in the Active and Masked Insulclock groups (i.e., with or without receiving alerts and reminders and accessing the app). To assess glycemic control, we will measure HbA1C and glycemic indices. Glycemic variability indices will be monitored with the FreeStyle Libre™ and included glucose coefficient of variation (CV), standard deviation (SD), time in range (TIR), time above range (TAR), and time below range (TBR). Mean glucose levels will be obtained from 48-h time intervals with the FreeStyle Libre. A late meal bolus (mistimed) will be considered when Insulclock detects the injection at least 30 minutes after the CGM rise. To identify meal glucose excursions, we will use the Glucose Rate Increase Detector (GRID) algorithm, which estimates the rate of change (ROC) of glucose from CGM data. Participants will complete the ITSQ and the DTSQ, which are validated questionnaires to assess the diabetes treatment satisfaction.

The main purpose of this study is to learn more about a new formulation of insulin lispro when given by an insulin pump to participants with type 1 diabetes mellitus. The study will investigate how the body processes the drug and how the drug affects the body. Information about side effects will be collected. The study will last from six to 12 weeks for each participant.

The Adaptive, Real-time, Intelligent System to Enhance Self-care of chronic diseases (ARISES) project will use type 1 diabetes (T1DM) as an exemplary case study to demonstrate safety, technical proof of concept and efficacy of a novel mobile platform. Combining wearable sensors and smartphone technology, a range of biological, environmental and behavioural data will be analysed to provide real-time therapeutic and lifestyle decision support. Using Case-Based-Reasoning (CBR), the system will be adaptive and personalised with the ability to learn from previously encountered scenarios. Ultimately, ARISES aims to empower self-management of chronic illness and limit the complications associated suboptimal treatment.

The purpose of the study is to assess the relevance of the advices provided by the IPRA© smartphone application for guiding the responses of insulin pump treated type 1 diabetes patients using real-time continuous glucose monitoring.
