Effect of HMP on Diabetic Microangiopaemia in T2DM

Diabetes MellitusType 21 more

The study mainly investigates the therapeutic effect of Heart-Protecting Musk Pill (HMP) on patients with diabetic microangiopathy. According to the indicators of diabetic nephropathy (DN), diabetic retinopathy (DR), oxidative stress and inflammatory factor in patients with diabetic microvascular disease after using HMP, the investigators aim to evaluate the effect of HMP on diabetic microangiopathy, oxidative stress and inflammation.

The Hong Kong Diabetes Biobank

Diabetes MellitusType 2 Diabetes9 more

Asia is in the midst of an epidemic of diabetes. Epidemiological figures suggest that there are more than 110 million people affected by diabetes in China, with a significant proportion of young adults already affected. With increasingly young age of onset, the financial implications due to productivity loss and health care expenditures are colossal. As a result, prevention of diabetes and diabetic complications has been identified as a top healthcare priority in China. In Chinese, diabetic kidney disease with albuminuria, which reflects widespread vascular damage, is a major predictor for end-stage renal failure, cardiovascular complications and death, and a major contributor to the increased healthcare burden associated with diabetes. There is an immense demand for effective tools which can accurately predict diabetes and diabetic complications. Only few genetic factors have been consistently shown to be associated with diabetic kidney disease or other diabetic complications. Identification of genetic factors or other biomarkers predicting these complications can facilitate early identification of high risk subjects for treatment, as well as provide novel targets for drug treatment. To address this, the investigators plan to utilize both hypothesis-generating whole-genome approach as well as candidate gene-based studies to identify novel genetic, epigenetic factors as well as other biomarkers associated with the development of diabetic cardiovascular and renal complications, as well as other diabetes-related outcomes. The Hong Kong Diabetes Biobank (HKDB) is being established in order to serve as a territory-wide diabetes register and biobank for epidemiological analyses, as well as large-scale discovery and replication of genetic and epigenetic markers, and other biomarkers relating to diabetes, diabetes complications or related outcomes. Subjects will be recruited from diabetes centres across Hong Kong, and will have detailed clinical information collected at the time of written consent and blood taking. Subjects will have detailed assessment of baseline diabetes complications through a structured clinical assessment, and will be prospectively followed up for development of different diabetes-related endpoints, as well as collection of clinical information and causes of hospitalization, along with information on medications and prescription records. This multi-centre cohort and biobank aims to improve our understanding of the epidemiology of diabetes and diabetes complications and related outcomes, as well as provide a unique resource for large-scale biomarker research to advance diabetes care and precision medicine in diabetes.

Effects of Flavanoids in Essential Hypertension, Type 2 Diabetes and Healthy Persons

Vascular ComplicationsDiabetic

Flavanols are natural substances who are frequently found in our nutrition. A lot of research has already been executed in the past to investigate what effects this flavanols could have in the human population. Based on these examinations, the investigators think and suggest that flavanols can have positive effects on the vascularly system, more specifically on the peripheral and cerebral blood vessels. The effects are only observed in a healthy populations, meanwhile patient populations like diabetes patients could really benefit from this. This is why the investigators will execute this study.

Effect of Vitrectomy on the Evolution of Refractory Diabetic Macular Edema

EdemaMacular Edema4 more

For patients with at least one eye with non-tractional diabetic edema refractory to 6 months of anti-VEGF injections (anti Vascular endothelial growth factor injections), a randomization is done: one group of patients will receive the standard treatment (anti-VEGF injections, switch to another anti-VEGF drug, additional photocoagulation or any other treatment except vitrectomy during the first 6 months after the randomisation) and the other group of patients will receive vitrectomy (with only additional photocoagulation during the first 6 months, then any treatment from 6 months after the randomization).
