Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus"

This study aims to perform a digital intervention in patients with type 2 diabetes to analyze the efficacy of the digital intervention Adhera® Fatigue Digital Program in order to improve diabetes self-management and improve clinical outcomes, including chronic condition-related fatigue. This will be done through a randomized clinical trial in 3 of the main health centers in the city of Xalapa, Veracruz, Mexico. The digital health intervention is designed to be used for approximately 3 months. The study will enroll 150 participants (75 in control group and 75 in experimental group) who are patients with type 2 diabetes. There will be educational contents and personalized motivational messages through the Adhera Health Recommender System.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to test the safety and feasibility of using an Automated Insulin Device (AID) in people with Type 2 Diabetes under basal insulin injections to achieve safe and fast basal insulin titration. Participants will be randomized to either the control group or the experimental group. If in the experimental group, the participant will use an insulin pump with Control-IQ Technology (Tandem Diabetes Care) for ten days. Researchers will compare the glycemic control of the experimental group to the control group.

Certain groups of patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) appear to have higher risk of hypoglycaemia. Periodic use of Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM), has been suggested as a method to detect hypoglycaemia events in certain subgroups of patients with high risk of hypoglycaemia. The aim of the present study is to contribute to the identification of subgroups of T2DM patients with high risk of hypoglycemia events, based on periodic use of Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM).

The investigators aim to evaluate the effect of curcumin and virgin coconut oil extract supplementation on people with type 2 DM, including blood glucose, HbA1c levels, inflammation, body weight and insulin resistance evaluation

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of the administration of tolerogenic dendritic cells in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

In clinical practice, women living with type 1 diabetes frequently report that insulin requirements change across the menstrual cycle. Consequently, glycemic fluctuations are observed. This phenomenon could be explained by a decrease in insulin sensitivity during the second half of the menstrual cycle (luteal phase). Overall, despite an important proportion of women reporting glycemic and/or insulin variations across the menstrual cycle, studies to date have involved small sample sizes, and have had inconsistent results. The objective of this study will be to study glycemic fluctuations across the menstrual cycle using CGM data, alongside insulin data, in a large sample of women.

THE GOALS of the STUDY are: (1) Determine if this novel continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) - multiple daily injection (MDI) port functions for 7 days in persons with Type 2 diabetes (T2D); (2) Measure the duration of glucose measurement errors that result from injecting liquid into the tissue. It is believed that these errors will be small and will not exceed 15-20 min in duration; (3) Determine how safe this device is; (4) In a survey given to subjects and other subjects after the study, to assess satisfaction and convenience vs standard MDI; (5) Assess accuracy of the glucose sensor; and (6) Compare how well subjects' glucose is controlled with the new device compared to the comparison (control) period in which subjects use standard MDI, during which the injections will be far away from the CGM.

Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are a class of organic pollutants in the environment characterized by persistent, bioaccumulation, long-range transport and biological toxicity. Due to its widespread distribution in the environment and Lipophilicity, POPs can bioaccumulate along the food chain and eventually accumulate in the human body. There are many types of POPs, including dioxins, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) , polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) . POPs is ubiquitous and Lipophilic in the environment, so the potential harm of POPs to human body has aroused wide concern. A growing number of studies have found that exposure to POPs may be associated with an increased risk of endocrine disease, particularly type 2 diabetes and thyroid cancer. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of Persistent organic pollutant exposure on the development ofType 2 diabetes and thyroid cancer by analyzing serum Persistent organic pollutant concentrations in controls, and patients with Type 2 diabetes and thyroid cancer.

Activation of brown adipose tissue (BAT) by cold exposure. BAT thermogenesis and BAT volume of metabolic activity will be assessed by Positron-Emitting-Tomography (PET/CT) and MRI/MRS imaging and new pharmacological methods to modulate BAT thermogenesis. All previous data on the functioning of Brown Adipose Tissue (BAT) were obtained by Positron-Emitting-Tomography (PET) imaging studies using fluorodeoxyglucose F18 ( [18F]- FDG). This approach underestimates the actual activity of the BAT. In this study, the investigator is going to use a new PET tracer (C11-palmitate) which is a fat molecule. This will allow to quantify more accurately the activity of brown fat.

This study aims at investigating the possible effect of alpha-lipoic acid on endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
