Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus"

This is a pragmatic, pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) of the Nutrition-Supported Diabetes Education Program (NU-DSMP). This study will test the feasibility and preliminary impact of providing diabetes-tailored food support and individualized case-management on glycemic control and other intermediate outcomes including food security, diet, mental health, and health care behaviors, among Medicaid-enrolled patients with type 2 diabetes in a safety-net county health system.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) prevalence has steadily been rising in the past decades and its complications, including cardiovascular diseases (CVD), are a major public health concern. To lower CVD risk and to maintain an adequate glycemic control, Diabetes Canada recommends aerobic exercise of high-intensity interval training (HIIT). The leading hypothesis of this study is that longer intervals will favor an anti-inflammatory immune state, and that and that it will be correlated with reduced arterial stiffness and blood pressure.

This study is being done to investigate strategies that may improve patient's knowledge of type 2 diabetes during reproductive age and improve knowledge and engagement in self-care activities.

The goal of the trial is to measure pancreatic uptake of 68Ga-NODAGA-exendin by PET/CT for detection of intra-individual differences in beta cell mass before and after treatment with Verapamil.

The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of virtual simulation-based diabetes foot care education on foot care knowledge and practice/behaviour. Research Questions The primary question for this study is: • Is virtual simulation-based diabetes foot care education a practical and acceptable intervention among patients with diabetes in Ethiopia? The secondary questions are: What is the impact of virtual simulation-based diabetes foot care education on diabetes foot self-care knowledge among patients with diabetes mellitus? What is the impact of virtual simulation-based diabetes foot care education on diabetes foot self-care behaviour among patients with diabetes mellitus? What is the impact of virtual simulation-based diabetes foot care education on diabetes foot self-care efficacy among patients with diabetes mellitus? What is the impact of virtual simulation-based diabetes foot care education on diabetes foot health-belief among patients with diabetes mellitus?

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of allogeneic mesenchymal stem / stromal cell therapy in individuals with chronic kidney disease.

This phase 1 study will include patients suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus and will study their response to enteric coated aspirin at a dose of 80 mg per day for a 7-day period. The aims are to determine the feasibility of a phase 2 larger scale trial, and to characterize the prevalence of incomplete platelet inhibition after exposure to EC aspirin at doses of 80 mg once daily. Platelet function will be assessed at baseline and a day 7.

Low Carbohydrate Diet (LCD) (< 130 g of carbohydrate per day) and ketogenic diet (< 50 g of carbohydrate per day) are popular among patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D). In most cases, LCD allow a better glycemic control and a important decrease of insulin requirements that cannot, however, be the sole result of low carbohydrate intake. However, due to the increase production of ketone bodies and the decrease of the insulin/glucagon rate, this diet is not without risk in T1D patients and some of them develop ketoacidosis. Type 1 diabetes is a autoimmune disease defined by the destruction of the pancreatic beta cells by the effector T cells, in condition of low regulatory T cells (Tregs). Indeed, some nutrients could regulate the plasticity and the function of Tregs, and be involved in the control of some autoimmune diseases in animals models thanks to a direct effect on immune cells of the digestive tract or an indirect effect by microbiota modulation. The study hypothesises that LCD may be able to restore residual insulin secretion in some patients by modulating immunity. The metabolic mechanisms leading to the effects described in patients with T1D patients under LCD have not been studied : in particular, there is no data on the evolution of the residual insulin secretion and no immunological parameter has been studied on these patients.

This study is evaluate the superior efficacy of a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM)-based advisory system in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM), as compared to Sensor Augmented Mode (SAM) therapy, and with characterizing the impact of psycho-behavioral factors on system performance, which will enable system individualization and lead to automated adaptation of advice delivery to optimize glycemic control and reduce the system's psychological impact.

This study proposes to examine the impact of time of day (morning versus afternoon) on the variability of blood glucose responses to high resistance exercise in a single group of patients with type 1 diabetes. Participants will be asked to wear a continuous glucose monitor during the 3 weeks of testing. During the six exercise sessions (three in the morning while fasted and three in the afternoon), participants will complete the same resistance exercise protocol.
