Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus"

The primary aim of the study is to study the relationship between overall bicycling and all-cause mortality and secondarily cardiovascular disease mortality among individuals with diabetes from European countries. A secondary aim will be to study the relation of change in bicycling to all-cause mortality and cardiovascular disease mortality.

The study is an open-label, prospective, within-subject comparison of the Bios device readings versus venous blood sample glucose readings, glucose readings from a Dexcom CGM and an SMBG device in subjects previously diagnosed with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Autonomic neuropathy is a common complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Symptoms from cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy include, dizziness, orthostatic hypotension and insufficient heart rate and blood pressure (BP) regulation during physical exertion. The degree of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy is most commonly measured as cardiac autonomic neuropathy based on at least two abnormal cardiac reflex tests, which primarily measures parasympathetic indices of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Few measures are available for quantifying the sympathetic/adrenergic branch of the ANS. Circadian changes in BP is a documented measure of BP variability, regulated centrally by a multitude of centers. A growing number of studies indicate that a diminished BP variability is associated with increased cardiovascular risk and injury. The ANS plays a pivotal role in the execution of these circadian BP changes, mainly through sympathetic adrenergic nerve fibers Few studies have investigated the applicability of 24-hour indices as predictor for autonomic adrenergic dysfunction. No previous studies have investigated the association between clinical markers of adrenergic function, and 24-hour blood pressure indices in type 2 diabetes.

Revadiab is case-control study aimed to demonstrate that retinal capillary density is altered in patients with type 1 diabetes with glycemic variability compared to those with comparable glycemic control without glycemic variability. An OCT angiography will be used to precisely evaluate retinal capillary density. A secondary objective will be to evaluate if glycemic variability is associated with cognitive dysfunction, using a neuro psychologic evaluation.

This is a prospective and observational study in patients with type two diabetes. The study hypothesis is that chronic hyperglycemia causes an increase in the microcirculation on the carotid artery wall and retina, evaluated by angio-OCT. Furthermore, the reestablishment of normoglycemia would decrease this microcirculation, which could trigger hypoxic and ischemic changes, accelerating preclinical atherosclerosis. The study goal is to describe the microangiopathy in both territories in patients with type two diabetes and chronic hyperglycemia, and to evaluate changes after the reestablishment of normoglycemia.

All hospitalised patients with COVID-19 who have positive RT-PCR for SARS-COV-2 will be included in the study. The patients will be divided into two groups, as diabetics and non-diabetics. The COVID-19 patients' medical records will be evaluated and compared in terms of the duration of hospitalization, the presence of lung involvement in Computerised Tomography, the need for intensive care unit and mortality rates in patients with and without diabetes.

Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is an emergent disease worldwide, and soon the leading cause of hepatic transplant in the USA. Among this high number of patients, the current challenge is to detect or even predict patients at risk of inflammation (Non Alcoholic or Steatohepatitis or NASH) and end-stage fibrosis, which are the best predictors of liver-related mortality. Visceral obesity is intimately associated with metabolic disease and adverse health outcomes, such as diabetes, and NAFLD. It has been demonstrated that visceral adipose tissue-linked inflammation was a risk factor of stroke, myocardial infarction, and others metabolic-related complications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of the quantity and percentage of Visceral Adipose Tissue by Dual X-Ray Absorptiometry and liver stiffness by Fibroscan in patients with type 2 diabetes, and other predictors of fibrosis such as FIB-4 and Fibrotest. We retrospectively collected the data of all the diabetic patients who had undergone a DEXA and a Fibroscan between January 1st, 2014 and Decembre 31th, 2019, in the Universitary Hospital of Nancy, France.

Type 1 diabetes has been poorly characterised, with very sparse information available in the literature about the characteristics of the disease in Africa. Atypical young onset diabetes is often reported by clinicians in sub-Saharan Africa, including patients who have the phenotype of type 1 diabetes but do not appear to have an absolute insulin requirement. The onset of type 1 diabetes in many sub-Saharan African populations seem to occur at later ages (20s to 40s) than what is generally seen in Caucasian populations. The investigators seek to characterise young-onset insulin treated diabetes (clinically diagnosed type 1 diabetes) in sub-Saharan Africa;

Microbiota is important for immunology, hormonal and metabolic homeostasis in human and could influence on developing diabetes and obesity. Recent studies investigates microbiota by metagenomic sequencing, however, the composite of microbiota and its metabolic role has not been fully determined. Metagenomics and microbiome analysis could early diagnose metabolic disorders and suggest treatment options for metabolic diseases. In this study, the investigators investigate the composite of microbiota and deduct basic information for treatment models using metagenomic sequencing.

Determine the incidence of hypoglycemia during / after sexual intercourse among young adults with type 1 diabetes using continuous -type sugar meter IPRO for a week.
