NCT00464854
At least 20% of patients hospitalized in the general medical and surgical wards at any given time suffer from diabetes. It has been demonstrated that poor clinical outcome correlates with the degree of hyperglycemia in these patients. Strict glucose control in hospitalized patients improves clinical outcomes in the setting of acute myocardial infarction, cardiac surgical procedures, infection and critical illness in patients hospitalized in intensive care units if insulin is applied intravenously. It is, however, complex to obtain strict glucose control in the general surgical and medical wards. These wards are usually understaffed as compared to intensive care units and therefore are incapable to perform the necessary close monitoring essential in patients treated with intravenous insulin. We intend to test the feasibility of glucose control by multiple daily subcutaneous injections with long acting basal glargine insulin and pre-meal insulin analogues. If good glucose control can be achieved, this would be a valid, more convenient and acceptable alternative to intravenous insulin infusions to obtain good glucose control in diabetic patients hospitalized in general internal medicine wards.
NCT00422357
Diabetes mellitus is the most common metabolic disorder worldwide. Some herbs are traditionally used in treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Urtica Dioica (UD) or stinging nettle is traditionally used in Morocco, Turkey, Brasil, Jordan and with much frequency in northern Iran. Studies on animal models along with in vitro studies has shown hypoglycemic effect for aqueous extract of UD. This study aimed to investigate hypoglycemic effects of UD tea bags in patients with T2DM on glycemic control, insulin sensitivity, along with its effects on lipid profile (LP), blood pressure (BP), liver, and kidney function.
