Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus"

Hyperglycemia is a common condition among hospitalized patients. The occurrence of severe hyperglycemia is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in several populations. Several trials assessed the benefits of aggressive versus conventional glucose control. These studies evaluated different patient populations, glucose targets and treatment protocols and as a result reported conflicting results. To date there are no clear guidelines regarding to the preferred glucose target range in hospitalized non-critically ill patients. The common practice is to maintain glucose level lower than 180 mg/dl however there are no evidence based regarding to the outcomes of hospitalized patients treated with intensive compared to conventional glycemic control. This prospective randomized controlled study will compare intensive vs. standard glycemic control in hospitalized non-critically ill patients. Within 24 hours of hospitalization in the internal medical or geriatric departments, patients who are expected to require hospitalization for at least three consecutive days will be randomly assigned into one of the two study groups - intensive with a target blood glucose range of 130 mg per deciliter or less, or conventional glucose control, with a target of 130-180 mg per deciliter. The investigators defined the primary end point as a composite outcome of mortality in 30 days, severe hypoglycemia, severe infections within 30 days, CVA and cardiac ischemic events within 30 days.

A two-arm randomized controlled trial design will be used. Participants will include 291 African American women with type 2 diabetes that are at risk for development and/or progression of diabetes complications. Both arms, diabetes medical nutrition therapy (MNT) and diabetes MNT plus motivational interviewing (MI), will include: 1) a 3-month active intervention period of six biweekly (every other week), group-based, trained nutritionist-facilitated sessions; 2) a 3-month maintenance intervention period, which will include one group-based maintenance support session; and 3) a 6-month inactive period (no contact). The differences between arms is the integration of culturally-adapted MI exercises during the diabetes MNT plus MI active and maintenance intervention periods.

The trial is an open-label randomized controlled trial. Patients with T2D on insulin therapy will be randomized to a telemonitoring group (intervention) and a usual care group (control). The telemonitoring group will use various devices at home. Hospital staff will monitor their data for a period of three months.

The primary objective of this study is to examine whether exercise training alone, liraglutide treatment alone or exercise training plus liraglutide treatment increases cardiac and muscle capillary blood volume, improves vascular function in the larger conduit vessels, and enhances insulin's metabolic action in humans with Type 2 diabetes. Subjects will be randomized to one of the three groups: exercise training, liraglutide treatment, and exercise + liraglutide. They will be studied at the baseline and then after 16 weeks of intervention.

This study evaluates the change of insulin resistance and glucose metabolism of patients with panniculitis associated acquired lipodystrophy syndrome and type 1 diabetes with the treatment of cyclophosphamide.

The proposed study is designed to test the hypothesis that treatment of resveratrol for 12 weeks will improve both endothelin-B receptor (aim 1) and skeletal muscle mitochondrial function (aim 2) in people with type 1 diabetes.

The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to determine whether glycemic targets that are lower than those currently recommended by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) would improve overall outcomes in pregnant patients with diabetes. Eligible pregnant women with a diagnosis of gestational diabetes or Type 2 diabetes will be randomized into either routine care with glycemic targets as currently recommended by ADA and ACOG (control arm), or more aggressive care with lower glycemic targets that more closely resemble normoglycemia in pregnancy (intervention arm). The glycemic targets for the control arm will be defined as follows: fasting ≤95 mg/dL, pre-prandial ≤95 mg/dL, and 1-hour postprandial ≤140 mg/dL. The glycemic targets for the intervention arm will be defined as follows: fasting ≤80 mg/dL, pre-prandial ≤80 mg/dL, and 1-hour postprandial ≤110 mg/dL. The primary outcome will be a 250-gram difference in birth weight between the two study arms. Secondary maternal and neonatal outcomes of interest will also be compared between the two study arms.

We aim to provide medical nutritional therapy to patients with type 2 diabetes who are on oral hypoglycemic agents or on basal insulin only and monitor the glycemic response with flash glucose monitoring or self-monitoring of blood glucose. Specifically, this is a randomized, open-label, controlled study where half of the study participants will have FreeStyle Libre device on for 12 weeks and compare the change in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) value with the patients in the control group.

This is a single-center, phase IIT clinical trial to evaluate autologous regenerative islet transplantation for insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. Twenty patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus will be enrolled: poor blood glucose control despite intensive exogenous insulin therapy. The primary endpoint will be defined by the return to normal blood glucose control without insulin at 12 months after transplantation.

A multi-center, placebo-controlled, double blind, 1:1:1 randomized control clinical trial testing two different JAK Inhibitors abrocitnib, ritlecitinib, and placebo in subjects with recent onset Stage 3 Type 1 Diabetes within 100 days of diagnosis.
