Active clinical trials for "Metabolic Diseases"

This multi-center, randomized and exploratory clinical trial is designed to evaluate the effect of bone metabolism and blood sugar of evogliptin and dapagliflozin in the menopause female patients with osteopenia and type 2 diabetes. The trial will evaluate bone metabolism (bone markers and bone density) and blood sugar (AGE and glucose variability) after 12 weeks and 48 weeks. This clinical trial conducts in two arms, and each arm recruits 60 subjects.

Although a common problem, hand osteoarthritis (HOA) is less studied than knee and hip. In the age group of 71-100 years, the prevalence of symptomatic HOA reaches 26% of women and 13% of men. These patients lose hand strength and have difficulty with day-to-day manual activities. The main joints involved are the proximal and distal interphalangeals and the carpometacarpal joint of the thumb. In the educational Project PARQVE, the prevalence of HOA was 23.7% at inclusion in the program, and 47.4% after one year, with loss of grip strength. There is controversy over the effect of viscosupplementation in the treatment of rhizarthritis when considering pain. However, strength is a very important function parameter that must be evaluated for function and quality of life maintenance. Concerned about the importance of maintaining strength and function in our program (PARQVE), we have added specific exercises tom improve hand strength and range of motion. Trying to optimize the treatment and confronting questions about the effect of the joint wash, called placebo in the comparative studies with corticosteroid and/or hyaluronic acid injection, we did a work where all the patients will be washed with physiological saline solution but a group, after emptying, will receive 1mL of hyaluronic acid with mannitol. PURPOSE: To compare isolated lavage with lavage followed by injection of hyaluronic acid with mannitol into carpometacarpal osteoarthritis joint of the thumb. METHODS: Forty joints of patients with multiple osteoarthritis (rhizoarthritis, including) and comorbidities (two or more of: overweight or obesity, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia, hypertension) will be allocated into two groups: Lavage (LS) and Lavage and Injection Hilauronic acid (LO). Both groups will undergo joint lavage with saline solution. The LO group will receive the 20 mg / mL hilauronic acid injection with 5mg mannitol. Both groups will be guided in the clinical treatment of osteoarthritis and metabolic syndrome and will be given daily exercises for the hands. They will be evaluated with the quick DASH questionnaire, Sollerman Test and by measuring the palmar, lateral and pulp-pulp grip strength, in addition to measuring the ROM and VAS pain moments immediately prior to the procedure, one, three and six months after the articular procedure.

This a controlled, double-blind, randomized, cross designed study to determine the effect of an alcohol-free beer with low glycemic index carbohydrates (isomaltulose) and a resistant maltodextrin, comparing to an alcohol-free beer with regular composition, on glycemic metabolism (glucose, glycated hemoglobin, insulin and HOMA index) in subjects with recently diagnosed diabetes mellitus and overweight or obesity. 44 subjects were randomized to consume for 10 weeks: a) two alcohol-free beers with regular carbohydrates composition per day; b) two alcohol-free beers with modified carbohydrates composition per day. Those subjects randomized to begin with A beer during 10 weeks will change to B beer during the second phase for 10 weeks and vice versa. There is a 4-8 weeks wash-out period between two phases.

Osteoarthritis patients undergoing primary hip and knee replacement are followed-up and changes in their glucose metabolism and other metabolic parameters (obesity, cholesterol levels) are examined. Persistent postoperative pain is examined as secondary outcome.

Risk-patients for diabetes or patients that are diagnosed with this condition but who are not treated with insulin are randomized two times, according to diet and according to the type of support: Randomization with regard to carbohydrate restriction (25-30 E% or < 10E%). Randomization with regard to type of psychological support. Either according to Acceptance and Commitment Therapy or to traditional cognitive behavioral therapy. Both kinds of psychological support is given as group therapy. Two-hundred patients are recruited and each patient is followed for two years.

The Metabolic Syndrome (MS) is a set of anthropometric alterations and chronic-degenerative diseases, such as obesity, diabetes mellitus and arterial hypertension. Each one of the diseases and physiological alterations represents a risk factor that conditions in the medium or long term another incapacitating or limiting disease that reduces the quality of life of an individual. Our country has a growing burden of morbidity and mortality due to diseases chronic-degenerative caused, for the most part, to the unhealthy lifestyle produced by multiple factors, such as social, economic, behavioral, environmental, among others. For this reason, it is important to plan, design and implement strategies that reduce, mitigate or control this public health problem in the population. The purpose of this study is to perform a nutritional intervention that includes food such as quinoa, flaxseed or both in subjects with metabolic syndrome and follow them up for six months. The impact of this intervention will be carried out through the measurement of cytotoxicity and glycemic control, this is with the micronucleus count and the estimation of glycosylated hemoglobin (Hba1c). This document will explain in detail what is intended to be done by presenting the following sections: In the approach of the problem and the justification, the metabolic syndrome will be described, its impact on the Mexican population, the interest and relevance of this research project. In the background will be detailed what has been said and done in the different studies scientists regarding the consumption of quinoa and flaxseed. Methodology defines the strategy, conditions, clinical criteria, material and epidemiological and statistical methods for the management of subjects and information.

In this explorative randomized clinical study, the investigators aim to study metabolic, cellular, and molecular changes that occur during weight loss in obese subjects with and without type 2 diabetes. Using novel "imiomics" (imaging technique using PET/MR bioinformatics) analyses to examine possible metabolic differences between energy restricted diet and gastric by-pass surgery on whole-body and tissue specific insulin sensitivity, glucose tolerance, metabolite and protein profiles, fatty acid metabolism, ectopic fat content, and gene expression in adipose tissue. This study aims to identify novel biomarkers and drug targets for type 2 diabetes as well as validate promising and established biomarkers in an interventional model for improved glucose metabolism.

Objective: To compare short-term and medium-term effectiveness of a multimodal program that integrates a program of therapeutic exercise, medication review, adequacy of diet and health education, compared with standard medical practice in improving neuromuscular and physiological status on frail elderly. Another aim is to analyze the maintenance of these effects by monitoring long-term (12 months) from the start of the intervention. Design: Randomized controlled trial Scope / Study subjects: recruited frail elderly in Basic Health Zone of Malaga. Methods: The subjects to be included in the study (after meeting inclusion / exclusion) will be randomized into two groups: a control group whose intervention will be to review medication + adequacy of diet + health education (physical activity recommendation (within a comprehensive advice on healthy lifestyles) and an experimental group whose intervention will be a Multimodal Intervention: therapeutic exercise + review medication + adequacy of diet + health education program. Sociodemographic, Clinical and monitoring Variables will be collected at baseline. Moreover, tracking variables will be collected at 2 and 6 months after starting the intervention and at 3 and 6 months after the end of the intervention (monitoring). The monitoring variables that will be measured are: BMI , general health, fatigue, brittleness, Motor Control, Attention - Concentration - Memory, Motor Memory , spatial orientation, grip strength, balance (static - semi-static and dynamic ), gait speed and metabolomic variables. One descriptive analysis of the sociodemographic variables of the participants will be performed. Further the change on the variables intra-subjects (pre-post intervention) and inter-subjects (experimental group vs control group) will be calculated. For the intra-subject analysis will be performed a ANOVA-one factor analysis. The intersubject outcome variables will be compared between the two groups in each moments of data collection, using the student t-test or Wilconxon (depending of the sample distribution). The level of significance was set at P ≤ 0.05.
