Continuous Glucose Monitoring on Patients With Active Autoimmune Diseases Following High-dose Predisone...
Glucocorticoid-induced HyperglycemiaGlucocorticoid is widely used in clinical treatment. Recently, there was research about glucose fluctuations under low-dose and pulse steroid therapy in elderly patients with active autoimmune diseases. Through this prospective trial, the investigators wanted to know the blood glucose characteristics under high dosage glucocorticoid (1-2 mg/kg/day prednisone or equivalent) in young patients (30-40 years) with active autoimmune diseases with or without low-dose glucocorticoid maintenance. The investigators used continuous glucose monitoring for 72 hours to get a better understanding of the glucose levels.
Prevalence of Hyperglycemia and Anaemia in Elective Surgical Patients
AnemiaIron Deficiency1 moreThe study is a prospective, observational study of adult, non-cardiac, non-obstetric, elective surgical patients conducted over a period of one week. This large-scale clinical audit aims to assess the incidence rates of anaemia and hyperglycaemia amongst elective surgical patients in the Western Cape. A study such as this is essential in the assessment of the incidence rates of abnormal fasting blood glucose levels and reduce the risk of perioperative complications for patients. Preoperative anaemia is a modifiable risk factor and should be identified early and treated appropriately to improve patient outcomes.
Outcome of Patients With Thoraco-abdominal Injury and Stress-induced Hyperglycemia or Diabetic Hyperglycemia...
Abdominal InjuryThoracic Injury2 moreThis study aimed to measure the effects of SIH and DH on the mortality outcomes of the adult patients with moderate to severe thoracoabdominal injury
Optimization of Glycemic Control in the Hospital and Critical Care Setting
HyperglycemiaDiabetes MellitusContinuous Glucose Monitoring collected using the iPro device, to complete a large dataset consisting of routine electronic health records, biological, neurophysiological, physiological, and glycemic data. This dataset will eventually contribute to the further development and optimization of a comprehensive simulation, training, and clinical decision support system designed to contribute the optimization of glycemic control in the hospital and critical care setting.
The Hypoglycemic Effect of Cyclocarya Paliurus Extract on Hyperglycemic Populations
HyperglycemiaThis is a randomized double-blind controlled trial,aiming to investigate the hypoglycemic effect of Cyclocarya paliurus extract and Cyclocarya paliurus compounds on hyperglycemic populations without modifying their original treatment plans.
mRNA Based-Covid-19 Vaccine Effects on Blood Glucose Levels
Diabetes MellitusType 24 moreTo determine if patients with a history of Diabetes Mellitus Type I or II developed a change in blood glucose levels as reported on Continuous glucose monitoring devices (CGMS) within the first week following administration of each dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.

HyperglycemiaAnalyzing peri operative changes in blood glucose levels from non-diabetic patients undergoing spine surgery
Stress Hyperglycemia. Potential Role of Incretin Analogs
HyperglycemiaCritical IllnessThis is a prospective observational study to examine the levels of glucoregulatory hormones, with special focus on incretins levels, in critically ill patients with stress hyperglycemia.
Barriers to the Implementation of Complete Insulin Order Sets
HyperglycemiaThe major purpose of this Quality Improvement project is to begin to address the issues surrounding glycemic control in the hospital setting by collecting accurate, reliable and verifiable data on the occurrence of hyperglycemia (BG >300 mg/dL), and whether or not CIO is used (immediately before and 72 hours after the BG >300 mg/dl).
Quality Gaps in Screening and Monitoring for Postoperative Hyperglycemia in a Canadian Hospital...
Diabetes MellitusSurgery1 morePatients with and without diabetes who have postoperative hyperglycemia have worse outcomes than patients with in-target blood sugars. Previous quality improvement work suggests numerous barriers and clinical inertia may contribute to quality gaps in glycemic management for surgical patients. Using a framework for perioperative glycemic management, we sought to measure quality gaps in perioperative glycemic care. This cross-sectional study used administrative data to measure the proportion of surgical patients with and without known diabetes who underwent preoperative hemoglobin A1c measurement, postoperative point-of-care testing for glucose (POCT), had hyperglycemia, and received basal bolus insulin regimens for treatment. We performed an exploratory analysis comparing length of stay (LOS) in patients with and without diabetes who had and did not have postoperative hyperglycemia.
