Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus"

The study seeks to explore the cardiovascular effects of co-agonism at the glucagon and (glucagon-like peptide-1) GLP-1 receptor. Glucagon and exenatide will be intravenously infused into participants with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Overall, the aim of the study is to further the investigator's understanding on the role these endogenous substances have on normal cardiac physiology, myocardial energetics and myocardial glucose uptake through a series of PET and MRI imaging studies

The primary objective of this study is to determine the mechanism of reduced branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) oxidation to propionyl CoA and isoleucine intake can affect TCA cycle function in obese insulin resistant T2D. We will test the hypotheses that isoleucine and valine oxidation to propionyl CoA is reduced and that week long oral administration of isoleucine in T2D subjects will increase propionyl CoA and succinyl CoA production in muscle. The secondary objectives of this study are to determine the extent to which type 2 diabetics are capable of controlling and coordinating complex patterns of force using the upper and lower limb. This line of research has functional significance as upper body coordination and fine motor control is important for many activities associated with daily living and may contribute to therapy protocols for individuals with type 2 diabetes. Functional performance via six-minute walk and balance board measurement will also be tested with and without sensory augmentation via electrical stimulation of foot. Changes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) mitochondrial respiration values will also be assessed between subject types and for diabetic after the 10-day supplementation period.

Patients newly diagnosed with T2D will be recruited and will receive sitagliptin treatment for 3 months. The gut microbiome of the participants before and after the treatment and the effectiveness of sitagliptin treatment on type 2 diabetes will be evaluated.

To investigate the effect of nitrate supplementation on red blood cell function in patients with type 2 diabetes.

The goal of this R34 planning project is to test the feasibility and acceptability of a 12-week modified diabetes and hypertension self-management program using trained Health Coaches.

The investigators want to study the impact CGM (continuous glucose monitoring) has on patients glycemic control as determined by time in range (TIR 70-180 mg/dL) in the Diabetic Kidney Transplant population.

Adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes (age 13-18 years, T1D duration >6 months managed on insulin) and poor glycemic control will wear a blinded CGM to obtain baseline data. After assuring adherence to CGM wear, participants will receive a non-blinded CGM and will share their blood glucose levels with the study team. Clinical personnel will remotely monitor patients in real-time for 3 months and communicate regularly over secure text messaging with participants and their parents. Following active remote monitoring, the participants will wear a non-blinded CGM for 3 months. Primary outcome assessment will be the change in HbA1c after 3 months of real-time remote continuous glucose monitoring.

The study aims to investigate the metabolic and cardiovascular effects of classical resistance training with high loads and blood-flow restricted training (BFRT) with low loads in individuals with type 2 diabetes over 12 weeks.

This is a multi-center, single-blind, parallel group, randomized controlled trial to access the effect and safety of the Artificial Intelligence Assisted Insulin Titration System (iNCDSS) in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

The transfer of young people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) to adult care occurs during a critical period of life, while many young people with T1D have unsatisfactory glycemic control. The preparation to take over responsibility for their health and self-care as well as increasing their participation in care are important aspects for strengthening people's own ability, an important component of person-centered care. STEPSTONES-DIAB aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a person-centred transition program for adolescents with T1D to empower them to become active partners in their care. The study is conducted at two hospitals in Stockholm, Sweden where 140 patients will be randomized to either a structured, person-centered transition program over a 2.5 -year period or to usual care. Outcome measures is empowerment, participation and responsibility in care, health status, glycemic control as well as the participants' experiences of care during transfer.
