Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus"

The main purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of orforglipron compared with insulin glargine in participants with type 2 diabetes and obesity or overweight at increased cardiovascular risk. The study will last approximately 2 years may include up to 27 visits.

A randomized controlled trial (RCT) to assess the safety and efficacy of use of Control-IQ technology in adults with type 2 diabetes using basal-bolus insulin therapy.

This study looks at how a new medicine insulin icodec helps in reducing blood sugar levels when given along with semaglutide in patients with type 2 diabetes. Participants will get the medicine insulin icodec once a week in the first part of the study (run-in period-26 weeks). Participants will only enter the second part of the study if the blood sugar levels have not reduced to normal. If blood sugar levels are normal after the first 26 weeks, participants will continue in a 5-week follow up period. In the second part of the study (intensification period-26 weeks), participants will get both insulin icodec and semaglutide once weekly after which they will continue in a 5-week follow up period. Participants will have to inject the study medicines once a week on the same day of the week in a skin fold in the thigh, upper arm or stomach. The study will last for about 13 months. Participants will get a blood glucose meter to check blood sugar levels. In addition, participants will be asked to enter blood sugar levels in the study phone. In addition, Participants will be asked to enter selected few blood sugar values (three times during the study) in a paper diary that will be provided to participants. Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to get pregnant during the study period.

A study designed to assess the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of CT-996 in overweight/obese participants and participants with T2DM.

The current study aim was to conduct placebo-controlled randomize clinical trial to assess the short-term efficacy and safety of postbiotics as an adjunction to the standard anti-diabetic therapy on insulin resistance, glycemic control parameters, β-cells functional activity, anthropometric parameters and markers of a chronic systemic inflammatory response in type 2 diabetes patients. The study will include 3 periods. Screening period of up to 1 weeks to assess the eligibility to inclusion/exclusion criteria. Treatment period for 3 month where the participants will receive a twice daily oral dose of postbiotics (cell lysate and DNA fragments of the probiotic strain L. rhamnosus DV - NRRLB-68023) at the assigned dose of 100mg or placebo in capsules. During this period monthly phone contacts will be done for assessment of compliance and safety concerns. Follow-up period of up to 3 month.

While cross-sectional studies have reported a significant association between diabetes and Apical Periodontics, prospective studies are scarce. This will be the first prospective interventional study to explore the cause-and-effect relation between AP and diabetes by assessment of levels of inflammatory markers in a longitudinal setting. Periapical healing in diabetics and nondiabetics will be compared after root canal treatment to evaluate the role of various physical and metabolic attributes on endodontic outcomes.

Regular physical activity has substantial health benefits in people with type 1 diabetes. The fear of hypoglycemia, both during and after exercise, is a major barrier to exercise in this population. A major obstacle to providing specific physical activity and exercise advice is that there are still significant gaps in the fundamental understanding of the impact of physical activity and exercise on blood glucose levels in type 1 diabetes. Women with type 1 diabetes have a substantial increase in cardiovascular risk once they have passed menopause. They may lose both bone quality and muscle mass at a faster rate with aging than those without diabetes. Overall, these changes greatly increase the risk of both cardiovascular and frailty related complications. Despite the many potential benefits of resistance exercise for post-menopausal women with type 1 diabetes, there are currently no published studies examining the effects of resistance exercise in this population. Before being able to design a clinical trial of resistance exercise, an examination of the acute effects of resistance exercise on blood glucose levels in post-menopausal women with type 1 diabetes is required. The present study will compare the glycemic effects of a low resistance, high repetition (3 sets of 15 to 20 repetitions) weight lifting program to the effects of a moderate resistance, moderate repetition (3 sets of 8 to 10 repetitions). The investigators hypothesize that the high repetition program will be associated with a bigger decline in blood glucose during exercise, but that the moderate resistance program will be associated with a higher risk of post-exercise hypoglycemia.

The prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D) continues to increase in the US, with 26.8 million adults carrying a diagnosis. Importantly, T2D is widespread in the Veteran population. This epidemic of T2D also contributes to the staggering rates of cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular mortality. Lifestyle modifications, including increased physical activity, are recommended as first-line therapy for the management of T2D. Unfortunately, patients with T2D exhibit diminished vascular adaptations to exercise. The proposed project will test the overall hypothesis that degradation of the endothelial glycocalyx, a characteristic feature of T2D, precludes shear stress mechanotransduction and consequent exercise-induced vascular adaptations. As such, the investigators pose that restoration of the endothelial glycocalyx via dietary supplementation of glycocalyx precursors will potentiate vascular adaptations to exercise in Veterans with T2D.

This randomized clinical trial will examine the effect of inforatio technique on healing of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). Inforatio technique is a novel procedure developed by the research group. The definition of inforatio technique is application of small cuts in wound beds with punch biopsy tools without involving surrounding epithelia. The aim is to initiate an acute inflammatory response that will promote healing of the ulcers.

This study is being completed to compare two dietary approaches for participants with type 2 diabetes. This research will test whether a very low-carbohydrate or a plate-method diet better improves outcomes for blood glucose control and body composition for patients with type 2 diabetes that follow one of these approaches for 12 months. Participants that meet screening and eligibility will be randomized to one of the two diets. In addition to the diet, study specific visits and assessments will be performed at various timepoints.
