Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus"

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of dapagliflozin on liver function of patient with NAFLD and T2DM.

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.

The aim of this study is to understand if the timing of exercise around food intake can help improve blood sugar management in pregnant individuals with diabetes.

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.

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.

The project investigates the effects of two exercise protocols at different intensities, high-intensity interval training and constant load at Fatmax, for 12 weeks in maximal fat oxidation, hormonal regulation of appetite, and insulin sensitivity in persons with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The participants will be of both sexes with ages between 40 and 55 years, belonging to the Province of Cádiz. Sixty volunteers will be randomly allocated into three groups: High-Intensity Interval TRaining (HIIT), Fatmax, and control groups. The assessments will be at the previous exercise intervention, posterior the exercise intervention, and 12 weeks after the last intervention. The outcome variables will include body composition, oral glucose tolerance test, appetite, plasma glucose, lipids in plasma, hormones, and adipokines.

The proposed study examines the implementation and efficacy of a fruit and vegetable incentive program in a population of adults with diabetes at a community health center (CHC) in California. Additionally, we seek to understand the impact of this program on the participants with particular attention to their experience and point of view. To better understand the program and its impact, a mixed methods approach will be used.

A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Phase III Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of JT-001 Add-on in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Inadequately Controlled with Metformin and Dapagliflozin.

Due to reports of a severely reduced insulinotropic effect of the incretin hormone glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) in type 2 diabetes (T2D), GIP has not been considered therapeutically viable in T2D. Recently, however, tirzepatide, a novel dual incretin receptor agonist (activating both the GIP receptor and the glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor) demonstrated massive improvements in glycaemic control and robust body weight losses; greater than observed with the GLP-1 receptor agonist semaglutide. However, the contribution of GIP receptor activation to these effects remains unknown. The present study will evaluate the glucose-lowering effect of GIP in the context of pharmacological GLP-1 receptor activation in patients with T2D.
