Dipeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitors and Alpha-cell Recovery

Type 1 DiabetesHypoglycemia

Hypoglycaemia is a well-known complication of insulin treated diabetes. The counterregulatory response to hypoglycaemia, with glucagon as the most important mediator, is initially diminished within a few years of onset of Type 1 diabetes and subsequently lost and thus increasing the risk of hypoglycaemia. Dipeptidyl Peptidase (DPP)-4 inhibitors augment the glucagon response to insulin-induced hypoglycaemia in type 2 diabetes. The investigators hypothesize that treatment with a DPP-4 inhibitor in patients with type 1 diabetes will recover the alpha cell response to hypoglycaemia.

The Impact of Fitness on Vascular Dysfunction in Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes

Type 1 Diabetes

The principal hypothesis of this study is that the micro and macro vasculature of young diabetes mellitus type 1 (DM1) patients is particularly susceptible to atherogenic factors which cause vascular dysfunction at multiple levels of the arterial vasculature and that this dysfunction is demonstrable using state-of-the-art ultrasound methods. The investigators further hypothesize that interventions, such as exercise, that are readily integrated into the daily life of individuals with DM1 can mitigate or reverse these early vascular changes and thereby diminish the otherwise predictable longer-term development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in type 1 DM

Evaluation of the Performance and Use of Non-Invasive Glucose Monitoring Device

Type 1 Diabetes MellitusType 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Diabetes is a leading cause of death in the Western World with medical costs increasing annually. There is no cure for diabetes, and blood glucose monitoring is a key component in diabetes treatment and management. Self-monitoring of blood glucose levels is essential to the self-management of diabetes and has become widespread over the past decade. Blood glucose determinations are currently done by invasive methods (finger tip pricking), followed by measuring the blood drop characteristics. The purpose of this trail is to demonstrate the performance and use of GlucoTrack device in measuring blood glucose levels. The rationale for development of the device is to improve the patient's quality of life by providing a device that is easily used and provides a painless measurement method, thereby leading to higher compliance, and to better managed diabetes

Improving Control and Reducing the Risk of Hypoglycemic Episodes in Type 1 Diabetes

Diabetes MellitusType 1

The purpose of this study is to test two newly developed computer programs, Integrated Biobehavioral Monitoring and Feedback (IBMF) IBMF-1 and IBMF-2. The computer programs are considered experimental. Both computer programs are being tested to see if they are useful in helping people with type 1 diabetes avoid low blood sugar episodes.

Ability to Cope With Type 1 Diabetes

Depression

The purpose of this study is to learn about the relationship that exists between coping skills and blood glucose control. In addition to this, we will study the effect of Type 1 diabetes on coping skills in different age groups, genders, ethnicities, socioeconomic groups, and the duration of diabetes.

Intranasal Insulin for Prevention of Type 1 Diabetes

Type 1 Diabetes

Children born in Turku, Oulu and Tampere university cities in Finland are screened at birth for HLA alleles that carry increased risk to or protection from development of type 1 diabetes. Children carrying increased risk are followed at 3-12-month intervals for development of diabetes-associated autoantibodies. Children having at least two types of autoantibodies (of the four measured) in at least two consecutively drawn samples are randomized to receive daily intranasal insulin or placebo in a double-blinded 1:1 trial. Hypothesis is that intranasal insulin delays or prevents development of clinical type 1 diabetes. The primary outcome measure is development of clinical diabetes.

Influence of Binge Drinking on Glucose Metabolism in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes - A Pilot Study...

Diabetes MellitusType 1

Although there is no evidence that individuals with type 1 diabetes have a different approach to alcohol compared to the background population, nevertheless, its use does have implications for patients mainly because of the risk of hypoglycaemia unawareness. However, binge drinking has been implicated as a factor in the development of ketoacidosis and is probably under-recognised. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of binge drinking on glucose, insulin, counter-regulatory hormones and other metabolites in patients with type 1 diabetes. It is hoped that data from this project will be used to develop a larger study comparing different treatment regimens for patients using alcohol to reduce the risks of hyperglycaemia as well as hypoglycaemia.

Matrix Metalloproteinases and Diabetic Nephropathy

Diabetes MellitusType 11 more

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of protein-degrading enzymes that are involved in the breakdown and remodeling of many tissues and organs. Abnormal activity of these enzymes has been implicated in many disease processes including rheumatoid arthritis, dental disease and metastatic cancer. Recent studies also suggest that elevations in blood sugar may abnormally effect MMP enzyme activity. Decreased activity of some of these MMP enzymes may be a partial cause of the abnormal enlargement of the kidney (renal hypertrophy) seen at the start of diabetic kidney disease (nephropathy). Preliminary clinical data from our laboratory confirm that children with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) have lower blood levels of some of these enzymes at the time of very high blood sugar readings. However, these enzyme levels become normal again as blood sugar levels improve with insulin treatment. In the present study, we propose to investigate the hypothesis that MMPs are involved in the cause of diabetic kidney disease by measuring concentrations of specific MMPs and some related proteins in the blood and urine of patients with type 1 DM who are between the ages of 14-40 years. We will enroll some patients who are recently diagnosed with diabetes, some who have had diabetes for several years, but without signs of kidney disease, and some with long-term diabetes and various degrees of kidney disease. Continuous Subcutaneous Glucose Monitoring, conducted for 3-4 days, will also be provided as a part of this study, to determine how different levels of blood sugar control might relate to different levels of MMP enzyme activity in the blood. We anticipate that this study will help to establish a link between abnormal MMP activity and the cause of nephropathy in type 1 DM, allowing scientists to design better therapies for the prevention and treatment of diabetes-related kidney problems.
