Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

A pilot study titled "A Virtual Cardiometabolic Health Program for African Immigrants (The Afro-DPP Program) will be conducted to address the cardiometabolic of community-dwelling African immigrants who have multiple cardiometabolic risk factors including hypertension, Type 2 Diabetes, high cholesterol, and overweight/obesity. The proposed study will recruit a total of 60 participants and will use a non-equivalent control group design to test the effectiveness of the intervention at two African churches in the Baltimore, Washington, D.C. area. The two churches will be randomly assigned to the intervention or delayed intervention group. At the end of a 6-month follow-up period, the control church will receive the intervention (delayed control group). All participants will receive a Bluetooth-enabled digital scale (Omron Model: BCM-500) that measures body composition including Body Weight, Body Fat percentage, Visceral Fat, Skeletal Muscle percentage, Resting Metabolism and Body Mass Index. A Bluetooth-enabled blood pressure monitor (Omron Model: BP7250) will also be distributed to all participants. All participants will download the Omron Connect app which will allow the participants to sync participants' blood pressure readings and body composition readings into the app. The research team will access these readings to monitor study outcomes and participants progress during the follow-up period.

Type 2 diabetes patients often do not reach desired control of glycemia despite guidance on changing lifestyle and diet as well as the use of conventional anti-diabetic medication. Parallely in recent years, an array of comparative clinical studies have demonstrated the anti-diabetic effect of more than 10 common spices and food products. Objectives: to evaluate whether proposing a choice of spices and foods products with hypoglycemic effect to diabetic patients can help better control diabetes.

The aim of this study is to investigate if diabetes, obesity and metabolic syndrome affects disease presentation and severity of malaria in adults in a hospital setting in Cameroon.

The choroidal thickness was found to be thinner in diabetic eyes without retinopathy compared to healthy eyes, thus choroidal thickness might be an important parameter for the development of diabetic retinopathy in diabetic eyes without retinopathy. Repeated low-level red-light (RLRL) therapy is an emerging innovative and non-invasive treatment for a variety of eye diseases. Notably, RLRL was found to be effective in thickening choroidal thickness in a 1-year randomized controlled trial, indicating its potential in modulating blood flow in the fundus. This study aims to answer whether RLRL therapy can thicken choroidal thickness in adults with diabetes mellitus or diabetic retinopathy.

This study aims to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety, and tolerability of DWP16001 in subjects with hepatic impairment compared with subjects with normal hepatic function.

This is an open-label, two-group parallel study, comparing before and after treatment within the same group and between the two groups. This study is designed to collect data on the safety and efficacy of a marketed pharmaceutical product (DIDALA) compared with Metformin. The efficacy data of DIDALA will be directly compared with Metformin 1000mg/day monotherapy in this study.

Although, a number of drugs are promising treatment strategies for insulin resistance, a critical question arises to which drug benefits patients with type 2 diabetes more from reduced insulin resistance and consequent glycemic control. In this study, we aim to evaluate the effect of metformin, dapagliflozin and the fixed-dose combination of metformin and pioglitazone (500mg metformin plus 15mg pioglitazone) on insulin sensitivity and glycemic control in overweight patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes.

Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is one of the most common and costly microvascular complications of diabetes impacting more than 50% of patients and costing more than 10.1 billion dollars annually. Intraneural facilitation™ (INF) is a non-invasive technique that has shown to improve balance and pain in patients with Type 2 Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (T2DPN); however, the underlying physiological mechanisms need further understanding. The purpose of this study is to investigate the physiological mechanisms behind two approaches to treating T2DPN, INF and standard physical therapy. Eligible subjects presenting with diabetic neuropathy symptoms will be recruited and referred to the Loma Linda University Health's Neuropathic Therapy Center. Forty patients will be evenly randomized into two groups: an INF™ treatment group and standard physical therapy treatment group. Subjects will participate in 11 study visits over a period of 6 weeks. Non-invasive assessments will measure neuropathy pain, heart rate variability, neuropathy severity, blood oxygen levels, and blood flow under the skin. Lab draws will measure inflammation levels in the blood and how well blood sugar levels have been maintained over a period of about 3 months. Descriptive statistics and repeated measures ANOVA will be used to analyze data and answer the research questions. The findings of this study will provide a better understanding of how INF™ and standard physical therapy work, subsequently improving non-invasive treatment methods for T2DPN patients.

The study was an interventional non-randomized controlled study and was divided into a Sitagliptin monotherapy (100 mg Qd) group and a Sitagliptin (100mg Qd)+Beidougen capsule (60mg Tid) combination treatment group for one week.
