Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

Objective: To investigate the effect of 5 weeks dapagliflozin 10 mg once daily treatment on glucose and lipid fluxes in patients with type 2 diabetes. Study design: Single center single arm (mechanistic) intervention trial. Study Population: Male or postmenopausal female patients with type 2 diabetes BMI > 25 kg/m2and more than 12 weeks a stable dose of metformin treatment > 1500mg, HbA1C ≥6.5% - <8.5%, Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG) <13.2 mmol/l, LDL cholesterol >2.5 mmol/l, willing to switch to rosuvastatin 10mg once daily for 4 weeks, and then receive 10 mg dapagliflozin once daily orally, for 5 weeks. Treatment: After a statin washout fase of 4 weeks, baseline cholesterol synthesis will be measured (2H3 Leucine, 2H2O deuterated water). Then, treatment with rosuvastatin 10mg for 4 weeks will be initiated after which, patients will undergo glucose (2H2enriched glucose) and lipid flux (2H3 Leucine, 2H2O deuterated water and oral 1,2,3,4-13C16 - palmitate enrichment measurements) followed by 5 weeks treatment with dapagliflozin 10mg once daily. In the final week glucose/lipid flux measurements will be repeated. Sample Size: 12 DM2 subjects. Outcome measures: The primary endpoint is effect of 5 weeks Sodium-Glucose Linked co-transporter (SGLT) 2 inhibition on LDL cholesterol synthesis in patients with DM2. Secondary endpoints are effect of SGLT2 inhibition on triglyceride and cholesterol fluxes as well as (hepatic and peripheral) insulin sensitivity and energy expenditure. Finally, effect of SGLT2 inhibition on dietary intake, liver fat content (MRI liver) and fecal microbiome will be studied at these timepoints.

This single arm pilot study will explore the feasibility of GlycoLeap, a proprietary online lifestyle modification and self-management education program developed in Singapore for people with type 2 diabetes, as an add-on to primary care delivered through one of the SingHealth Polyclinics.

Glucose is a sugar carried in the blood stream that body uses for energy. If someone has diabetes, blood glucose level can be erratic, sometimes becoming very low this is called Hypoglycaemia (or a "hypo"), and can happen when blood glucose levels drop below 4 mmol/l. So far in order to prove that a hypo happened for a patient, blood glucose level can only be measured at time of the hypo and not after it. In this study we are trying to identify certain chemical substances (biomarkers) in diabetic patients that may be measured in blood tests of the patient up to after 24 hours of the hypo and if we could prove that a hypo has happened we could adjust tablets and or insulin dosage in a way to prevent further hypos. The study will be conducted in the Diabetes Centre in Hull Royal Infirmary and will involve three visits to the diabetes centre. The study can finish in a week time after the first visit. Visit 1 is the screening visit to identify eligibility to take part in the study. Visit 2 insulin infusion will be given to make participants blood sugar level fall lower than normal for a short time and corrected quickly afterward. This is a stress for participant's body and should stimulate certain chemicals that we are trying to identify during hypo. In Visit 3, the main purpose of this visit which is done 24 hours after insulin infusion is to take a blood sample and check how participants is after visit 2. We will recruit 25 Type 2 Diabetic patients and 25 none diabetics to compare both results. Both groups should not have ischemic heart disease, underactive thyroid or seizures and on stable dosage of medications.

This study will evaluate whether enteric-coated nutrients increase some glucose and regulating hormone levels, glucose tolerance and satiety in overweight and obese individuals with type 2 diabetes.

This study is an open label, two armed trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of Fenfuro capsule twice daily for 90 days in 100 patients with type 2 diabetes that will be conducted in single center in India. The primary outcome measures will be the determination of decrease in plasma glucose levels from baseline to last visit. The secondary outcome will be the determination of safety of Fenfuro capsule in type 2 diabetic subjects.

The objective of the Get In Touch - Phase 2 (GIT-2) study was to evaluate a diabetes care support intervention facilitated by cellular-enabled glucose meters in adults with persistent poor control of type 2 diabetes.

Whole grains have been associated with controlled glycemic response and increased satiety compared to refined grains. However, the properties of whole grains which are responsible for these purported improved health outcomes are still unclear. The current study investigated the extent of whole grains' low glycemic property when food properties are controlled, and how this relates to gastric emptying rate and glycemic response.

This is a pilot study to test the feasibility and acceptability of a self-regulation theory-based mHealth behavior intervention for overweight or obese older adults with T2DM.

OBJECTIVE This study aims to find out the effects of walking exercise training, which is given according to Transtheoretical Model (TTM), and follow-up on improving exercise behavior and metabolic control in type 2 diabetic patients. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The study was conducted as a pre-test, post-test experimental model with 76 intervention (INT) groups and 76 control (CON) groups adult type 2 diabetic patients providing the criteria of the study and followed-up by the diabetes polyclinic of Adıyaman Education and Research Hospital. Patient introduction form (PIF), TTM scales and pedometer were used to collect the data. TTM based training was given to the intervention group according to the patients' change stages at hospital 10 weeks once per every 2 weeks. PIF, TTM scales were applied after the training. PIF, TTM scales were applied to the groups 9 months after the pre-test again.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of the collaborative care model in Singapore in which clinical pharmacists, nurses and dietitians are active participants who collaborate with physicians in caring for patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM).Since DM is a cardiovascular risk equivalent, co-morbidities such as hypertension (HTN) and dyslipidaemia (DLP) will also be evaluated to assess the holistic care provided for the investigator's patients afflicted with these top chronic diseases in Singapore.
