Active clinical trials for "Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2"

This study is designed to understand the impact of glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes on dental implants under long-term function. It is hypothesized that poor glycemic control will not have significant effects on implant-related outcomes over longer periods of time.

In this prospective, non interventional, observational Post Marketing Survelliance study data are obtained on the efficacy, safety and tolerability of Glucobay treatment on top of sulfonylurea under daily life treatment conditions.Specifically investigated is the influence of Glucobay on Post Prandial Blood Glucose and HbA1c as well as on pateint's weight when added to an already existing sulfonylurea therapy.The study is planned to carried out in 25000 - 30000 patients from 200 trial sites in India.The Post Marketing Survelliance study will be performed with commercially available medication prescribed within regular practice of the physician. No other examination will be performed than would be done without Post Marketing Survelliance study.

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to assess and describe the pain in relation to subcutaneous (under the skin) injection of different combinations of injection speed and volume with respect to acceptance of the injection pain and backflow.

This study is conducted in Europe. The aim of this study is to assess the well-being of patients following treatment with insulin detemir (Levemir®) in subjects with type 1 or type 2 diabetes in whom either initiation of or a switch to insulin treatment with a long-acting basal insulin analogue is needed.

This trial is conducted in Europe. The aim of this trial is to evaluate the effect of Levemir® (insulin detemir) on glycaemic control, weight and incidence of hypoglycaemic events in insulin treated subjects with type 1 or type 2 diabetes.

Public health strategy on type2 diabetes prevention in primary health care. European coordinated project (DE-PLAN) adapted to Catalonia (DE-PLAN-CAT). Two-step multicentre cohort study: cross-over period (screening) plus a follow-up period (preventive intervention): 12 centres, 7 working-groups, 42 units, 106 professionals). Interventions: Randomized non-invasive diabetes screening program by means of the FINDRISC score comparing with the oral glucose tolerance test results. At least one third of the screened subjects is expected to present high-risk criteria. They will choose 1 out of 3 interventions to modify lifestyle: self-acting vs. individualized or group-based educative (6-hour, 3 or 4 sessions program). Participants' motivation will be periodically reinforced. Follow-up will be focused on diabetes incidence, cardiovascular risk (HearthScore, Regicor scores), lifestyle-quality of life (assessed by European peer-reviewed questionnaires) and cost-effectiveness analysis. First-year results includes: protocol, measurement tools and database available, screening concluded (n=2082) and European intervention manual on type 2 diabetes prevention started.

This study is conducted in Asia. The aim of this study is to review the efficacy and safety of insulin treatment with InnoLet® in daily clinical practice.

Abstract Diabetes mellitus and periodontal diseases are both chronic inflammatory disorders that have a major impact on the health and well being of millions of individuals worldwide. Periodontal diseases are among the most common diseases in humans, therefore, if the presence of periodontal diseases plays any role in overall systemic health, the public health impact may be substantial. An important factor that can be involved in the progression of the periodontal disease is the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). The imbalance between oxidative stress induced by ROS and the concentrations (or activity) of the antioxidant may result in tissue damage. The ROS induce the activity of lipid peroxidation-Tbars, myeloperoxidase (MPO), peroxidase and arginase, whose mechanisms reflect the severity of the periodontal disease and it may offer the basis for a patient specific diagnostic test for periodontitis and could have therapeutic significance. The aim of this study is to investigate quantitatively the levels of oxidative stress markers (Myeloperoxidase, Peroxidase, Lipid Peroxidation and Arginase) in saliva and in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of diabetes type 2 subjects with generalized chronic periodontitis and periodontally healthy individuals, and systematically healthy individuals with generalized chronic periodontitis and periodontally healthy individuals, before and after periodontal treatment. Unstimulated whole saliva will be collected for 5 min as well as GCF of 25 diabetes type 2 with generalized chronic periodontitis, 25 diabetes type 2 periodontally healthy individuals as controls, 25 systematically healthy individuals with generalized chronic periodontitis and 25 periodontally healthy individuals before and after treatment. The following clinical parameters will be evaluated: probing pocket depth, probing attachment level, plaque index and the gingival index. The activity of stress markers in saliva and GFC will be analyzed by spectrophotometry. Adequate statistical analysis will be carried out with a p-value set at p < 0.05.

Evaluation whether the introduction of large-scale personalized and technology supported telemonitoring and health coaching interventions produces benefits in terms of health related quality of life, health status and empowerment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. In addition, the trials evaluate the economical and organizational impact of the new services and examine their acceptability by patients and health professionals.

This study is conducted in Europe. The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of biphasic insulin aspart (NovoMix® 30) in hospitalised patients with type 2 diabetes with the aim of intensifying their treatment.
