DIAbetes TEam and Cgm in Managing Hospitalised Patients With Diabetes
Diabetes MellitusType 2This trial investigates the effects of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and an in-hospital diabetes team on in-hospital glycemic and clinical outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes compared to standard glucose point-of-care (POC) testing and an in-hospital diabetes team.
Normalized Glucose Levels in Type 2 Diabetes With Carbohydrate or Caloric Restriction
Type 2 DiabetesThe scientific evidence for diet recommendation to patients with type 2 diabetes is insufficient. Poor diet quality is a principal cause of obesity, which strongly increases the risk of secondary diseases such as type 2 diabetes (T2D), cardiovascular disease and cancer. A newly published study the DiRECT trial demonstrated startlingly that diet-induced weight loss of 15 kg can effectively reverse T2D in most patients. The concept of reversibility, into remission, of T2D with diet is new, and we urgently need to document the most optimal dietary strategies. In a multicenter dietary intervention of 650 patients with T2D, we plan to compare to diets in regards to remission rate for T2D. One diet will be a low-carbohydrate diet. Participants in this group can eat as much food as they like but are recommended to keep the carbohydrate amount very low (maximum 30 gram per day) during the first 3 months of the study. Thereafter they can increase the carbohydrate amount (up to 80 g carbohydrates per day) during 12 months. The other group will be on a low caloric diet. This group will have dietary replacement diet containing 800-850 KCal/day for 3 months. Thereafter will participant in this group be divided in two subgroups: one will continue with low fat diet and the other subgroup will continue on low carbohydrate diet (maximum 80-gram carbohydrate per day) for 12 months. The aim of the study is to evaluate if Low carbohydrate diet can generate and/or maintain an equal remission rate as with the low caloric diet leading to 15 kg weight loss. Each center will also conduct mechanistic studies. Finally, we will translate our new insights into innovative electronic tools to support preventive as well as therapeutic healthy eating.
A Research Study of a New Medicine NNC0519-0130 in Japanese and Non-Japanese Men
Diabetes MellitusType 2NNC0519-0130 is a new medicine which may possibly help participants with type 2 diabetes. This study, will look into how safe the new medicine NNC0519-0130 is, and we will measure its concentrations in the blood and look at its effects. This study will last for a maximum of 22 weeks and Japanese and Non-Japanese male participants will be included.
Assessing the Value of Avocados on Glycemic Control in Type 2 Diabetes
Diabetes MellitusType 25 moreThe objective of this study is to assess the effects of Hass Avocados on glycemic control. The investigators hypothesize that Hass Avocado consumption will reduce fasting blood sugar compared to an isocaloric amount of other fruit during controlled feeding.
A Randomised, Controlled Trial of a Low-energy Diet for Improving Functional Status in Heart Failure...
Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection FractionHeart Failure5 moreHeart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a common and serious complication of obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D). HFpEF occurs when the heart muscle unable to relax efficiently to pump the blood around the body. This leads to fluid build-up, breathlessness and inability to tolerate physical exertion. People who develop HFpEF do less well because treatment options are limited. Pilot data in patients with obesity and diabetes and a small number of patients with HFpEF have shown improvements in exercise capacity and reversal of changes in the heart and blood vessels. This study will assess if this is achievable in a multi-ethnic cohort of patients with established HFpEF. A total of 102 adults will be invited and allocate by chance into two groups: either a 12-week diet or health advice on how to lose weight. The study will determine if weight loss over 12 weeks can improve heart function, symptoms and ability to exercise. Additionally, participants' views on changing their diet and how this has impacted their symptoms will be sought during the study in an optional interview. This will help guide treatments planning in the future to get maximum benefits, and to individualize support to patients from different cultural backgrounds.
Efficacy of Using Mobile Health Applications for Health
Diabetes MellitusType 21 moreThe purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of mobile health applications in improving health outcomes and type II diabetes outcomes in type 2 diabetics. This study will involve a 6-month long commitment where participants will be expected to weigh themselves every morning, at the same time, and check their blood glucose readings daily before and after meals for at least three meals in the day.
EMPOWERing Patients With Chronic Diseases Through Smartphone App, Health Coaching and Shared Decision...
Diabetes MellitusType 21 moreChronic diseases are the leading cause of deaths in Singapore. The rising prevalence in chronic diseases with age and Singapore's rapidly aging population calls for new models of care to effectively prevent the onset and delay the progression of these diseases. Advancement in medical technology has offered new innovations that aid healthcare systems in coping with the rapid rising in healthcare needs. These include mobile applications, wearable technologies and machine learning-derived personalized behaviorial interventions. The overall goal of the project is to improve health outcomes in chronic disease patients through delivering targeted nudges via mobile application and wearable to sustain behavioral change. Our overall objective is to design, develop, and evaluate an adaptive intervention platform on wearable devices and shared decision-making during consultations for patients with diabetes and hypertension. Our aim for this study is to assess the clinical effectiveness of real-time personalized educational and behavioural interventions delivered through wearable (Fitbit) and an integrative mobile application in improving patient glycaemic control measured using HbA1c over 9 months. Secondary outcomes will include change in systolic blood pressure, quality of life (QoL), patient activation, medication adherence, physical activity level, diet, direct healthcare cost and indirect healthcare cost over 9 months. We will conduct a randomized controlled trial among patients with comorbid diabetes and hypertension. This proposal aims to develop sustainable and cost-effective behavioural change among patients with comorbid diabetes and hypertension through patient empowerment and targeted chronic disease care.
