Digital Diabetes Remission Trial

Diabetes MellitusType 2

This is a multicentre, open-label Randomised Controlled Trial run in the United Kingdom. The main aims are to assess whether the Habitual Remission Programme (digital therapeutics + 12-week 800kcal/day low-energy diet, delivered remotely) is more likely to lead to weight loss and remission in adults with type 2 diabetes, when compared to standard of care.

Individually Tailored Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes

Type 2 DiabetesHypertension

The prevalence of Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is rising rapidly worldwide. In Denmark approximately 8% of adults have T2D and more than 25.000 are diagnosed each year. This has vast consequences for society and the patient. Standardized treatment aiming at normalizing blood glucose and hypertension comparable to healthy individuals, have been tested in large studies. The effect on cardiovascular disease and other complications have been modest at best and one study showed an increased mortality with intensive treatment. The standardized treatment often results in polypharmacy, which increases the risk of patients discontinuing treatment. We propose a new approach to treatment of T2D, where the patients' individual characteristics are considered. The aetiology of the diabetes can be different, which warrants different treatment. Many patients have concomitant illness which can affect the way the patient is treated. A tight regulation of blood glucose can in some patient constitute a risk of adverse effects, especially hypoglycemia. In that sense individual targets for the treatment are important. Effective lifestyle treatment has importance for a successful outcome and we therefore offer an application that can help the patient and the physician organizing activity individually. The objective of individual treatment is to choose the most effective medication. If a prescribed drug does not have the desired effect it should be replaced with a different drug. The overall goal is to reduce the number of substances and side-effects, but simultaneous improve treatment and reduce the incidence of cardiovascular and other diabetes-related complications. This will in turn result in improved quality of life and improved adherence to treatment. The potential effect of individual tailored treatment of T2D is to improve the guidelines of treatment, not only to improve the patients' health, but also to reduce the socioeconomic consequences of the growing T2D prevalence

Longitudinal Multi-Omic Profiles to Reveal Mechanisms of Obesity-Mediated Insulin Resistance

Diabetes MellitusType 26 more

This 12-week controlled diet and weight intervention study seeks to define the molecular pathways that link excess body weight to the development of insulin resistance (IR). Blood, adipose and stool are sampled at three timepoints; baseline, peak weight (4 weeks) and post weight loss to monitor changes in cellular processes. Additionally, direct insulin sensitivity testing, and radiological measurement of visceral fat and intrahepatic fat content is measured at three timepoints to correlate clinical indices with cellular changes.

Whey or Casein - Liver Fat Reduction and Metabolic Improvement by Fast vs. Slow Proteins

Type2 DiabetesNAFLD

High-protein diets have been recently demonstrated to effectively reduce insulin resistance, derangements of the lipid profile and liver fat content in subjects with moderately and severely impaired glucose metabolism and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (LeguAN, LEMBAS, DiNA-P, DiNA-D). The effects can be attributed to prolonged insulin secretion and improved second meal effect, higher energy expenditure by urea synthesis, suppression of glucagon or other mechanisms. Up to now, it is unclear, if proteins with slower or faster digestibility lead to differential results in these study designs. The proposed study will elucidate this question. The Investigators hypothesize, that slowly-digestible proteins induce a prolonged insulin plateau supporting the second-meal effect. The investigators also assume, that these dietary proteins lead to a markedly stronger short-term secretion of glucagon followed by desensitisation of this hormone release. Fast-digestible proteins, on the other hand, will presumably induce a smaller second-meal effect and do not inhibit a second rise of glucagon in a consecutive meal. The investigators intend to study the effects of a 3-weeks high-protein diet in subjects with NAFLD (40 subjects without T2DM, 40 subjects with T2DM) on insulin resistance (mixed-meal tolerance tests; MMTT), second meal effect (second, consecutive MMTT on the same day) and liver fat content (MR spectroscopy) as well body-fat distribution (MR tomography). The investigators expect different results for slow protein (casein) and fast protein (whey), thus comparing both protein species. The two major clinical visits before and after the intervention period will also include fasting blood sampling for later analysis, full anthropometric assessment and a set of behavioral tests, investigating postprandial decision making processes. All clinical assessments will be conducted in Charité (Lead: A.F.H. Pfeiffer). Psychobehavioral tests (Prof. Park), assessment of body fat distribution including liver fat (Dr. Machann) and measurements of amino acid levels throughout the meal tests (Prof. Rohn) are secondary work packages.

Intervention Study: Genetic Risk Communication and Wearables

Fitness TrackersSedentary Behavior3 more

This study aims to determine the effects of communicating genetic risk for type 2 diabetes (T2D) alone or in combination with goal setting and prompts from a wearable device on objectively measured physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior (SB) in East Asians. It is hypothesized that this combination will lead to significant favorable changes in objectively measured PA and SB, and that such changes will be more likely to be sustained over 6-month follow-up. This study aims to recruit 150 healthy East Asian adults in Hong Kong. At baseline, participants will be invited to visit the research laboratory for measurement of a series of variables including height, body weight, blood pressure and grip strength. Participants will also be invited to complete a set of questionnaires to assess their self-reported PA and SB, fruit and vegetable consumption, smoking status and psychological variables. Blood samples will be collected to analyze key diabetes and cardiovascular disease biochemical markers as well as their estimated genetic risk of T2D. Each individual's unique genetic risk for T2D will be estimated on the basis of established genetic variants associated with T2D specifically for East Asians. Each participant will be asked to wear a Fitbit Charge 4 tracker, an objective activity monitoring device, throughout the entire trial. Participants will be randomly allocated into 3 groups: 1 control and 2 intervention groups. A control group will receive an e-leaflet containing general lifestyle advice for prevention of T2D. An intervention group will receive an estimated genetic risk of T2D, in addition to the e-leaflet. The other intervention group will have a Fitbit step goal set 10% higher than their baseline step count and use prompt functions of the Fitbit tracker, in addition to the genetic risk estimate and e-leaflet. Activity data from the Fitbit will be collected at 4-week post-intervention; information about lifestyle and psychological variables will be assessed through the questionnaires at both immediate and 4-week post-intervention. To determine the longer-term effect of the intervention, participants will be asked to visit the research laboratory 6 months after the intervention to repeat the same set of assessments as baseline, except the blood samples collected at 6-month follow-up are used only to analyze cardiometabolic risk profiles (not genetic risk). Activity levels will also be objectively measured using the Fitbit for 4 weeks.

Continuous Glucose Monitoring Devices in Hospitalized Veterans With Diabetes

Diabetes MellitusType 21 more

More than 25% of the patients admitted in the general wards have a history of Diabetes Mellitus (DM). Up to 30% of the hospitalized diabetics develop hypoglycemia (low glucose values); a condition that is associated with seizures, cardiac arrhythmias, and even death. In Veterans, the prevalence is disproportionally higher. It is estimated that 40-50% of hospitalized Veterans are diabetics. In this clinical trial the investigators describe the development of a novel system, the Glucose Telemetry System (GTS), with which glucose values can be wirelessly transmitted from the patient's bedside to a monitor device at the nursing station. The goal of this work is to develop a more effective glucose surveillance system at the general wards, which can decrease hypoglycemia in the hospital and improve clinical outcomes.
