Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

The goal of this project is to co-design a healthcare provider-based produce prescription program (PPR) in partnership with the community served to improve participants' food security status, diet quality, and cardio-metabolic health outcomes, and to reduce healthcare costs, specifically related to medication use and hospital visits. Novel to this study is an implementation of a community co-designed randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a delayed intervention control group focused of equity (i.e., including the target population in the intervention designed for them) in design, implementation, and evaluation. The project will be conducted in 3 phases. Phase 1 will involve formative research and PPR co-design with community partners and potential participants through listening sessions, partner meetings, and community advisory group sessions to finalize the intervention protocol and components, for which investigators will then request IRB approval. Phase 2 will involve the implementation of a delayed intervention RCT PPR. Data analysis and final reporting will be conducted during Phase 3. Specific Aims: In collaboration with community partners and community members, utilize implementation science strategies to identify and address community, systemic, and structural barriers and assets to co-design a tailored produce prescription program (PPR) intervention that emphasizes health equity in a low-income population served by Griffin Hospital (GH) and/or Griffin Faculty Physicians (GFP). Hypothesis: Collaborating with our community partners on the design and implementation of a PPR will lead to a successful design and implementation of the PPR to our population of focus, as evidenced by satisfaction, retention, experiences of dignity/respect, improved self-efficacy related to fruit and vegetable consumption, and diet quality. Demonstrate improvements, in intervention group vs delayed intervention control group, in food security status, diet quality, and cardio-metabolic outcomes in individuals with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes through implementation of a tailored PPR in a low-income population served by GH and/or GFP. Hypothesis: The PPR designed with community input will improve food security status, diet quality, self-reported health related quality of life and cardio-metabolic outcomes (Hemoglobin A1C, weight/body mass index, lipids, blood pressure), among our intervention participants compared with a control over a 6-month period. Evaluate the impact of a tailored PPR on healthcare cost among low-income participants with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. Hypothesis: The successful implementation of the tailored PPR will lead to a reduction in certain healthcare cost specifically related to medication usage (including dose) and reduction in emergency department visit and/or hospitalization among intervention participants compared with a control over a 6-month period.

This project will determine whether a diet culturally-adapted to Puerto Ricans can effectively decrease cardiometabolic risk for diabetes and obesity. This will help define a culturally-appropriate, feasible, and sustainable diet intervention aimed at reducing type 2 diabetes and obesity outcomes.

The study team's central hypothesis is that the Parkland Diabetes Detection Program (PDDP) screening invitations targeted by race/ethnicity with culturally concordant messaging and tailored by glycemic risk (known PDM vs. unknown glycemic state) plus phone-based navigation of non-responders will be more effective at closing screening gaps than PDDP generic screening invitations and usual care, opportunistic screening alone.

The purpose of the study is to look at the change in blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes who change their treatment from DPP4i to oral semaglutide. Participant will get oral semaglutide as prescribed by the study doctor. The study will last for about 5-6 months. Participants will be asked to complete two questionnaires. One will be about eating behaviour and the other one will be diabetes related. Participant will complete this questionnaire during the normal scheduled visit with study doctor. Participants will be asked questions about their health and diabetes treatment and lab tests as part of their normal doctor's appointment.

Purpose: To develop a mathematical model for the occurrence of MI in patients with T2D by studying the relationship between the internal personalized biorhythms of the patients and the external transit rhythms of space objects; to develop and implement a personalized method of chrono-prevention of MI in patients with T2D. Obejectives: 1.1 To investigate patterns of the influence of external transit rhythms of space objects on the occurrence of MI in patients with T2D: an observational study using clinical databases. 1.2 To investigate patterns of influence of cyclic activity of helio- and geophysical phenomena in the interplanetary medium on the occurrence of MI in patients with T2D. 2. Develop a mathematical model for predicting the occurrence of MI in patients with T2D, based on the identification of the relationship patterns between the internal personalized biorhythms of these patients and the external transit rhythms of space objects. 3. To investigate the effectiveness of the mathematical model for predicting the occurrence of MI in patients with T2D for the purpose of personalized chrono-prevention: a randomized clinical trial.

The purpose of the study is to look at the change in blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes who are using oral semaglutide and planning to fast during Ramadan. Participants will take oral semaglutide as prescribed by the study doctor. The study will last for about 5 months (20 weeks). Participants will be asked to complete a patient diary about how and when they take the oral semaglutide tablets. Participants will complete this diary during the study period as instructed by study doctor.

A human subjects research study, the primary purpose of which is to assess the EFFECTS OF SEMAGLUTIDE ON INTRACRANIAL BLOOD FLOW AND BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER PERMEABILITY IN TYPE-2 DIABETES (T2D) through testing of the intervention on patients in a clinical setting. The study will randomize subjects with diabetes to either semaglutide or matching placebo. Magnetic resonance images will be primary endpoint measured at baseline and at one year to assess effect of this FDA approved medication. Given the available evidence supporting the neuroprotective effect of this drug class and stroke reduction with semaglutide, and our preliminary data showing that T2D had significantly reduced total number of distal arterial branches in the brain than non-T2D, we expect treatment with semaglutide will be associated with improved intracranial blood flow condition.

Chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes type 2 are major causes of death worldwide. Preventive interventions can be delivered through primary care, as this is the first-line healthcare with which a considerable proportion of the population comes into contact every year. The goal of this cluster-randomized trial is to compare the effects of a Health Dialogue Intervention (HDI) to Opportunistic Screening (OS) in primary care among middle-aged adults with low socioeconomic status. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the short-term change in cardiovascular risk factors, lifestyle behaviors, and perceived quality-of-life among participants offered HDI, as compared to participants offered OS? What is the long-term risk of ischemic heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and death due to cardiovascular disease or type 2 diabetes, among participants offered HDI, as compared to participants offered OS?

Initially, 4 teams of investigators conducted randomized controlled trials (RCT) at their own site to evaluate the effectiveness of bariatric surgery compared to medical/lifestyle management of type 2 diabetes. Each study followed subjects for a duration of about 1 - 3 years. Following this, a consortium was created to pool data and continue to follow study participants. This early collaboration of the 4 groups of investigators was supported by Industry sponsors (Ethicon, Inc and Medtronic-MITG). Now, the investigators have successfully received a grant from the NIH, as the sole supporter of continued observational follow-up of study participants. The continuing aim of this study is to combine data from the 4 studies and follow the original randomized subjects for an additional 5 years of follow-up. The purpose of the study is to determine the longer term durability and effectiveness of bariatric surgery compared to medical/lifestyle intervention on the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

The aim is to evaluate the change in indicators of lifestyle and its effect on cardiometabolic biomarkers as a response to an integrative mother-child intervention to promote healthy lifestyles and prevent food insecurity and child malnutrition in vulnerable communities in the Yaqui Valley, Sonora, Mexico. The intervention consists in a program including nutrition education and physical activity training, with a total duration of 6 months. The proposal addresses the problem in an integrative and non-conventional way, generating new multifactorial knowledge of cardiometabolic and behavioral markers, and their relationship with each other, helping to reduce family food insecurity and improving lifestyle and health, and to support vulnerable families in achieving social justice in the field of nutrition.
