Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus"

The goal of this research study is to evaluate a programme that is based on Compassionate Mind Training (CMT) over four-weeks. The programme intends to share information and strategies to reduce diabetes distress, self-criticism, and shame, and improve physical health in people who have Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

The goal of this observational study is to describe data on Israeli children and youth using the 780G system including data regarding glycemic control parameters, various questionnaires, sleep data, bioimpedance measures, and dietary parameters. The main questions it aims to answer are: • whether the 780G system will improve glycemic control • whether the psychosocial aspects will improve. Participants will be followed once connected to 780G, at baseline, one, three, and six months after the connection.

This study is being done to better understand whether meal replacements can be an effective tool for weight loss and treatment of elevated blood sugars in people with obesity/overweight and diabetes/pre-diabetes who have a low income.

This study aims to understand the use of continuous glucose monitors (CGM) in Asian Americans with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Researchers will compare participants on continuous glucose monitors with participants using fingerstick self-monitoring with the aim of answering the following questions: Check if continuous glucose monitoring is doable and consistent for this group, and see how it affects their quality of life. Estimate how well the health outcomes (glucose and lipid markers) vary over the study period. Understand how social and community factors can impact the use of continuous glucose monitors in this group.

The study will investigate if treatment with Roxadustat improves kidney oxygenation in diabetic patients with nephropathy receiving treatment for renal anemia, compared to patients receiving treatment with darbepoetin alpha. Participants will be randomized to either treatment, and receive equal care for renal anemia. Kidney oxygenation will be examined before treatment start and after 24 weeks using BOLD-MRI (blood oxygen level-defendant MRI), a non-invasive method available for measurement of tissue oxygenation levels that is comparable with direct invasive measurement of partial oxygen pressure. Blood and urin samples will be collected in connection to these visits. The primary endpoint is the change in medullary and cortical R2* (inversely proportional to the tissue oxygenation content) after 24 weeks. Secondary endpoints will be albuminuria and urinary levels of ROS (evaluated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy with CPH spin probes).

The main objective of the study is to determine whether fully closed-loop insulin delivery using ultra-rapid acting insulin lispro will improve glucose control compared to standard lispro under conditions mimicking missed meal bolus. Ultra-rapid acting lispro (Lyumjev) is a novel formulation of insulin lispro in which two additional excipients (citrate and trepostinil) have been added, resulting in accelerated initial absorption and more than double the glucose lowering effect in the first 30 minutes after subcutaneous administration using insulin pump. To date, no randomised controlled trial involving fully closed-loop in type 1 diabetes has been performed to evaluate the benefit of Lyumjev over standard lispro. This is an open-label, single-centre, two-period, randomised, crossover study. The study involves two 12-hour in-patient stays at the clinical research facility during which glucose levels will be controlled by the Cambridge closed-loop system with either Lyumjev or standard lispro. Up to 26 adults with type 1 diabetes treated with insulin pump will be recruited at Manchester Royal Infirmary, aiming for 19 completed participants. During the study days, closed-loop will automatically modulate insulin infusion rate based on real-time glucose sensor measurements. Participants will receive standardised meals with no meal bolus for the lunch time meal during each study day. Primary outcome is the time spent in sensor glucose range (3.9-10.0mmol/l) between 11:00 - 17:00 hrs. Secondary outcomes are the time spent with glucose levels above and below target, and other sensor-based metrics. Safety evaluation comprises assessment of the frequency of hypo and hyperglycaemic episodes.

This is an observational study in which data from people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Germany who use the medical app "myTherapy" are studied. In observational studies, only observations are made without specified advice or interventions. In people with T2DM, the body does not make enough of a hormone called insulin or does not use insulin well enough. The resulting high blood sugar level can cause damage to the kidneys over time. As a result, chronic kidney disease (CKD) can occur as a complication of T2DM. Kidneys filter extra water and waste out of the blood and make urine. CKD is a long-term, progressive decrease in the kidneys' ability to properly filter the blood. Abnormal amounts of proteins such as albumin in the urine are a sign of kidney damage, as proteins are normally kept in the blood. The amount of albumin in the urine is measured as so-called urine-albumin-creatinine-ratio (UACR) in this study. Studies in people with T2DM and CKD in a real-world care setting are limited, particularly those that look at the number of people concerned over time. The main purpose of this study is to learn how many people with T2DM have also increased amounts of albumin in the urine (UACR level) in users of the medical app "myTherapy" in Germany. In addition, researchers want to learn how these albumin levels change over time. To answer this, the researchers will collect the participant's UACR level at start of the study and about 12 months later. The UACR is measured by the participant's physician during routine care using urine dip-sticks. All participants of this study are already receiving or will receive one of the available T2DM treatments prescribed by their doctors according to the approved use or are regularly using devices to check their blood sugar levels. And they use the "myTherapy" app to support and track their T2DM therapy. The data collected includes both participant-reported data and physician-provided lab values. All data are entered into the "myTherapy" app by the participant. They will be collected from October 2022 to December 2024 and cover a period of up to 15 months per participant. Besides this data collection, no further tests or examinations are planned in this study.

This trial will investigate whether a powdered fibre mix helps maintain healthy blood glucose levels in participants with pre-diabetes, where high blood sugar is a risk of diabetes.

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from destruction of insulin producing beta cells by the body's own immune system (autoimmunity) causing an individual to lose the ability to make enough insulin to control their blood sugar levels and need to have insulin injections to lower blood glucose levels. Whilst high blood sugar level is a problem for people with Type 1 diabetes, taking insulin medication to lower sugar levels, delayed meals and exercise can all result in dangerously low blood sugar levels (hypoglycaemia). The biological causes of hypoglycaemia, and ways to prevent it are poorly understood. In non-diabetic individuals, a hormone called glucagon is secreted naturally to raise blood glucose levels but it is unclear why glucagon secretion is impaired during hypoglycaemia in individuals with T1D. The aim of this prospective observational study is to test the relationship between a glucagon stimulation test and risk of hypoglycaemia in T1D. It is hoped this research will establish whether this relationship could be used as a blood test and be a clinically useful biomarker of hypoglycaemia risk and, therefore, directly inform clinical care of people with T1D, particularly those with highest risk of hypoglycaemia. Participants will be asked to complete: a Mixed Meal Tolerance Test (MMTT) at Visit 1 or 2 an Arginine Stimulation Test (AST) at Visit 1 or 2 a Light MMTT or repeat AST at Visit 3 (approx 6-7 months of Visit 1) continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and self-reported time spent in hypoglycaemia will be undertaken for 2 weeks following Visits 1 and 3.

The ACHIEVE RCT will measure the effect of the intervention (mHealth app with CGM, provider dashboard, and care team coaching) compared to current standard care (prenatal visits, self-monitored blood glucose, and certified diabetes care and education specialist) on achieving glycemic control (hemoglobin A1c <6.5% in the third trimester). We hypothesize a 25% absolute increase in the proportion of participants in the intervention group who will meet the target hemoglobin A1c <6.5% in the third trimester compared to the standard care group
