Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus"

This study will test the preliminary efficacy of a nurse case-manager, telephone-delivered intervention that provides diabetes self-management education and skills training and resolves the unmet social needs of older African Americans with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes by randomizing 100 African Americans aged 50 years and older with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes to the Combined Diabetes Education/Skills Training and Social Needs Resolution (DM Social Needs) Intervention (n=50) and usual care (n=50) arms. The aims of this study are: Aim 1: Test the preliminary efficacy of the DM Social Needs intervention on clinical outcomes in older AAs with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes. Aim 2: Test the preliminary efficacy of the DM Social Needs intervention on patient reported outcomes in older AAs with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes.

The aim of the current study is to determine the effects of resistance exercise on performance of the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test and the Colour Trails Test.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of empagliflozin, with and without pancreatic clamp, on endogenous (hepatic) glucose production (EGP, or 6,6, D2-glucose), gluconeogenesis (D2O), lipolysis (U-2H-glycerol), ketogenesis (13C-palmitate conversion to 3-betahydroxybutyrate), and norepinephrine turnover (3H-NE) in type 2 diabetes subjects.

The incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), a glucose tolerance disorder during pregnancy, is increasing. In Germany, it reached 8.58 % in 2019. Standardized treatment has reduced complications for mother and child. Blood self-measurement is currently used to monitor glucose levels, but it is burdensome and disliked by patients. Flash Glucose Monitoring (FGM) was approved in 2017, but its routine use lacks sufficient data. This pilot project aims to study the impact of FGM on patient satisfaction and adherence to therapy. The hypothesis is that FGM will improve patient experience and increase therapy adherence. The study will include 100 GDM-diagnosed women who will be randomly assigned to FGM or SMBG treatment. The primary endpoint is treatment satisfaction and adherence, measured through step count, physical activity, food error count, and weight gain. The project aims to provide data for patient-centered decision-making on glucose monitoring systems, following the principles of the Association of Diabetes Counseling and Training Professions in Germany (VDBD).

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare those using a diabetes management smartphone application (mySugr) to those not using the application. This smartphone application is for Spanish-literate adults with poorly controlled, non-intensively treated type 2 diabetes. The main question[s] that it aims to answer are: What is the impact of the use of mySugr (a smartphone-based application or app) with structured blood glucose monitoring on diabetes self-management among Hispanic/Latino adults with poorly controlled, non-intensively treated T2D? Will diabetes self-management be more effective for those using mySugr (the Active group) compared to those not using mySugr (the Control group) over a 12-week study period? Participants will be screened and enrolled if they are eligible; they will have the study explained to them in Spanish or English and have time to ask questions and then sign an informed consent form. Clinical measurements (including height, weight, and blood pressure) and hemoglobin A1c will be done. All subjects will be given a blood glucose meter, lancing device, and blood glucose strips for the meter, and they will also receive an electronic scale. Several questionnaires will be answered. If a subject is randomly assigned to the Active group, they will download the mySugr Pro app in Spanish to their smartphone and be trained in its use. They will receive education focused on paired (before and 2 hours after a meal) blood glucose testing, which participants will conduct twice a day for 6 days and once a month for 3 months. Participants will continue structured blood glucose testing with the mySugr PRO app for 12 weeks, and they will have 3 virtual visits in Spanish with mySugr PRO coaches who will review the blood glucose records and advise the subjects. Subjects in the Control group will not receive the mySugr PRO app or coaching. They will continue with their usual diabetes management. All subjects will return after 12 weeks to return the scale and have a close-out visit with clinical measurements and questionnaires. Subjects will also receive a disturbance allowance for their time and participation.

The investigators will study if group education for parents of adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) will improve the transition from adolescence to adulthood. The investigators aim to conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) of parent group education sessions to assess the feasibility and refine the intervention to inform a full-scale multicenter RCT. The aims of the pilot are to estimate: 1. Recruitment rate, 2. Adherence rate, 3. Response rate, and 4. Retention rate. The aims for the future full-scale multicenter RCT are to assess the effect of parent group education sessions integrated into pediatric care, compared with usual care on self-management, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), adverse outcomes and validated measures during the transition from adolescence to adulthood. The investigators will conduct a parallel group, blinded (outcome assessors, data analysts), superiority pilot RCT of parents and their adolescents with T1D (14-16 years of age) followed at a university teaching hospital-based pediatric diabetes clinic in Montreal. Interventions will occur over 12-months. Follow-up will be to 18 months from enrollment.

We are testing the effectiveness of an eHealth digital tool co-designed with patients and providers to improve diabetes self-efficacy in young adults as they transition to adult type 1 diabetes care.

The investigators propose to conduct a pilot prospective cohort study to assess the impact of shared medical appointments (SMA) visits in underserved youth with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes (T1D). The trial will employ an enrollment visit, SMA visits every 3 months over a 12 month study period, followed by a 6-month observational period to assess feasibility and acceptability of SMA and the impact on glycemic control, self-management skills, and health related quality of life.

Phase 1b designed to assess safety, pharmacokinetics, immunological and clinical effects of multiple ascending doses of OPT101.

There are multiple CGMs that are FDA approved. However, there are few studies looking at the variability of measurements between the left and right arm, and none looking at this effect in diabetic patients. This study may identify if glucose differences exist in the left and right arm in patients with Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes. Furthermore, it may point to future directions for research to standardize methods of glucose measurement such as consistently measuring on only one side of the body.
