Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 Clinical Trials

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a common vascular complication of Type 2 diabetes (T2D) that is associated with increased mortality and poor quality of life.In industrialized countries, DN ranges first among other etiologies of end-stage renal disease (ESRD).Diabetes in Qatar is a serious health issue for the Qatari population since approximately ...

The global prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) is rapidly rising throughout most regions of the developed and developing world. In Middle East countries, particularly in the Gulf Council countries, the diabetes pandemic along with the rates of obesity have risen due to the adoption of a modern lifestyle. In ...

Diabetes is a serious health issue for the Qatari population since approximately 1/5 of the population has Type 2 Diabetes, which is 2-3 times higher than the world average. Although much of the clinical studies of diabetes often focused on microvascular phenotypes such as retinopathy and nephropathy, and macrovascular diseases ...

Specific Aim: To determine whether treatment with liraglutide (Victoza) will result in similar glycemic control (HbA1c at 26 weeks) and a lower rate of hypoglycemic events compared to treatment with glargine (Lantus) in patients with T2D after hospital discharge. Patients with poorly controlled (HbA1c >7%-10%) T2D treated with diet or ...

Specific Aim 1.To examine whether the combination of liraglutide plus canagliflozin can prevent the increase in HGP following institution of canagliflozin therapy and produce an additive or even synergistic effect to lower the plasma glucose concentration and A1c. We will examine this hypothesis by comparing the effect of administration of ...

Acute and chronic improvement of endothelial function is expected through the pleiotropic effect of DPP-4 inhibitors. A randomized, prospective, open-labeled, parallel design. The duration of treatments with sitagliptin or glimepiride is 12 weeks. The number of study centers is a single (Dokkyo Medical University Hospital). Participants will be randomized into ...

The majority (75%) of deaths in subjects with diabetes mellitus (DM) are due to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). Recent studies suggest a major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) rate of >11% over 18 months in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) despite a baseline LDL-C of <2.1 mmol/L. Bromodomains (BRDs) are a ...

CoRDS collects contact, sociodemographic and health information about participants. This information is entered into CoRDS and linked to a unique coded identifier. Below are some examples of information requested on the Questionnaire that will be entered into CoRDS: Contact information: Name, Mailing Address, Phone Number, Email Address Sociodemographic information: Date ...

The Canagliflozin Mealtime Insulin Rescue study will enroll up to 40 subjects at the Atlanta VA Medical Center. Subjects will be screened and enter a 2-week run-in period during which they will switch to or continue on a diabetes treatment regimen of basal insulin before supper and aspart insulin before ...

Specific aims: To study biology of wound derived inflammatory cells and fluid from diabetic versus non diabetic wounds. To characterize mechanisms that are responsible for dysregulated wound inflammatory cell function in individuals with diabetes. To characterize differences in the biology of normal peripheral blood derived cells versus wound derived cells. ...
