Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence of major cardiovascular events among patients with type 2 diabetes who are new initiators of Saxagliptin and those who are new initiators of oral anti-diabetic drugs (OADs)in classes other than Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP4) inhibitors.

The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence of hospitalization with acute liver failure among patients with type 2 diabetes who are new users of Saxagliptin and those who are new users of other oral antidiabetic drugs.

Like most endocrine axes, the entero-insular axis is expected to go through an age-related physiological deterioration, what might contribute to special features of the elderly onset type 2 diabetes in comparison to middle-age. Twenty four NGT volunteers will be evaluated by a meal tolerance test (MTT) for incretin hormone measurements, and by the hyperglycemic clamp followed by an arginine test for assessing the beta-cell function and the acute insulin response. Others parameters as body composition and basic biochemistry will be also evaluated at Laboratory of Investigation on Metabolism and Diabetes - LIMED / State university of Campinas, Brazil. The characterization of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) production, dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) activity and/or endocrine pancreas incretin-response at aging, might be an interesting evidence to reinforce an incretin-based therapeutic approach for elderly onset type 2 diabetes.

Obtain Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) data from individuals taking exenatide LAR, sitagliptin, or pioglitazone. The CGM measurements collected will help determine the characteristics of glucose control prior to treatment and during treatment.

This is a retrospective review of patients who have undergone bariatric surgery at VUMC and who have type 2 Diabetes and/or dyslipidemia. The investigators have previously found that gastric bypass significantly improves diabetes 6-12 months after surgery. The investigators are interested in looking at the longer term results after surgery.

This study is conducted in Asia. The aim of this observational study is to evaluate current status of diabetes management, control, and complications in diabetic subjects in Asia.

An observational, non-interventional, multi-centre study to provide further information on the utility of test for a predictive marker by investigating the current prevalence of high sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) testing and characteristics of each CVD risk group.

The diabetic dyslipidemia is one of the most important risk factor in the development of coronary artery disease. The low density lipoprotein (LDL)-like nanoemulsions is being used to study the clearance of cholesteryl ester and free cholesterol from intravascular in patients with advanced coronary artery disease and it was shown a higher removal of free cholesterol and higher deposit in vases of this patients. The aim of this study is to analyze the plasma kinetics of both forms of cholesterol(free ad esterified) in type 2 diabetes patients without a previous history of cardiovascular disease.

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this observational study is to evaluate the glycaemic control in patients with type 1 or 2 diabetes using NovoMix® 30 or Levemir® under normal clinical practice conditions.

This study is conducted in Europe. An observational study evaluating the blood glucose control in patients using a modern insulin: NovoRapid®, NovoMix® 30 or Levemir® for treatment of Type 2 diabetes mellitus in Czech Republic.
