NCT07464223
This study evaluates changes in pancreatic fat and recovery of pancreatic function in obese patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), a weight-loss surgery. Obesity can cause fat to accumulate in the pancreas, which may impair insulin production and lead to type 2 diabetes. This study uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to measure pancreatic fat before and after surgery to understand how weight loss affects pancreatic function. About 50 obese patients (BMI \> 32 kg/m²) aged 16-60 years who are scheduled for LSG will be enrolled. Participants will undergo MRI scans of the pancreas and blood tests before surgery and at 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery. The MRI uses a safe, non-invasive technique called Dixon imaging to measure fat content in different parts of the pancreas (head, body, and tail). Blood tests will measure fasting glucose, insulin, C-peptide, and HbA1c to assess pancreatic function. The study aims to determine whether reduction in pancreatic fat after weight-loss surgery is associated with improved insulin secretion and reduced insulin resistance. This information may help doctors better understand how bariatric surgery improves metabolic health and guide postoperative patient management. Participation involves no additional risk beyond routine clinical care. All MRI scans and blood tests are part of standard postoperative monitoring for bariatric surgery patients.

NCT04943861
The objectives of this study are to better understand how FI (food insecurities) contributes to the development of cardiometabolic comorbidities among PWH (People with HIV) and to test a novel bilingual FI intervention designed to reduce these comorbidities among food insecure PWH. The PI and staff will conduct this study in partnership with the Wake Forest Infectious Diseases Specialty Clinic, one of the largest Ryan White-funded clinics in North Carolina, which serves more than 2,000 PWH annually from a predominantly rural catchment area that includes South Central Appalachia. This area has high rates of both FI and HIV.
NCT06613711
The objective of the MagDI Italy Study is to evaluate the feasibility / performance, safety, and initial efficacy of the MagDI System in eligible participants who are indicated for a duodeno-ileal (small bowel) side-to-side anastomosis procedure for partial intestinal diversion (e.g., one example of a small bowel clinical procedure requiring a side-to-side anastomosis).
NCT06897202
This study is designed to test how well once-weekly MET097 (an ultra-long-acting GLP-1 receptor agonist) works to treat adults with obesity or overweight and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) compared to placebo. MET097 or placebo will be administered to individuals via subcutaneous injection once weekly for 28 weeks. If an individual is randomly assigned to MET097 they will receive one of four different dose regimens.
NCT07366775
This randomized controlled trial aims to develop and evaluate a telenursing-based Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) program with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes mellitus in Thailand. The program is designed to improve diabetes self-management through nurse-led education, behavioral support, and regular follow-up delivered via telecommunication technologies. Participants with type 2 diabetes and poor glycemic control will be randomly assigned to either an intervention group receiving a 12-week telenursing DSMES program or a control group receiving usual care. The intervention includes an initial in-person education session followed by structured video call follow-ups provided by nurse. The primary outcome of this study is the feasibility of implementing telenursing for DSMES in Thailand. Secondary outcomes include changes in glycemic control, body mass index, diabetes knowledge, self-care behaviors, coping behaviors, quality of life, healthcare costs, and frequency of acute care use. The findings from this study are expected to provide evidence to support the use of telenursing as an accessible and sustainable approach for diabetes self-management in the Thai healthcare context.
NCT07061301
This clinical study explores whether adding technological tools during hospital discharge can help people with type 2 diabetes who are starting insulin therapy achieve better treatment adherence and blood glucose control once they return home. The discharge transition period includes both the final days of hospitalization and the first weeks to months after returning home. When people with type 2 diabetes are hospitalized, they sometimes need to begin insulin therapy. After discharge, managing insulin properly is essential to avoid high or low blood sugar levels. However, many patients forget or delay insulin doses, which can lead to poor control of their diabetes. This study will compare two groups of patients. All participants will be adults with type 2 diabetes, between 18 and 70 years old, who are newly starting insulin during their hospital stay. Group 1 ("technological group") will use a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) and a smart insulin pen cap called Insulclock. These tools show real-time blood glucose data and record when and how much insulin is injected. Patients and doctors can use this information to better adjust treatment. Insulclock also includes alarms to remind patients of their doses. Group 2 ("control group") will use the same devices, but they will not see the data in real time. Instead, they will manage their insulin based on standard finger-prick blood sugar checks four times a day, as typically done in standard care. Both groups will be followed for 12 weeks after hospital discharge. Medical check-ins will occur in weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12. Blood tests and treatment adjustments will be performed as needed. The main goals are: To measure if the use of technology helps patients stick to their insulin schedule (fewer missed or mistimed injections). To see if it leads to better blood glucose control (e.g., more time within the recommended range, fewer episodes of low or high glucose). To evaluate patient satisfaction with this technology and check if the number of unplanned hospital readmissions decreases. The study will take place at Hospital Universitari i Politècnic La Fe in Valencia, Spain. Around 80 patients will participate. This study is important because real-world data about the use of CGM and smart insulin devices during the hospital-to-home transition are limited. It may help improve diabetes care for people starting insulin after hospitalization.
NCT06975501
This study is a cluster randomized controlled trial with a 2×2 factorial design conducted in community health centers in Kunshan, Harbin, Wuhan, Beijing and Shanghai. It aims to evaluate the independent and combined effects of exercise and cognitive interventions on intrinsic capacity and related health outcomes among stroke survivors aged 60 years and older with hypertension or type 2 diabetes mellitus. Participants will receive either exercise training, cognitive training, combined training, or usual care over 12 months, followed by a 12-month follow-up. Findings will inform integrated health management strategies for older adults with multimorbidity.
NCT07325838
This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effect of a nurse-led digital self-management education and support program on self-management behaviors, glycemic control, and diabetes-related distress in young adults with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Young adults with T2DM often have difficulty maintaining good glycemic control and following self-management recommendations. Digital tools and remote education may help support their daily self-care, but there is limited evidence for structured, nurse-led digital programs in this age group. In this study, 72 young adults aged 18 to 45 years with T2DM will be recruited from the Endocrinology and Metabolism outpatient clinic of Van Regional Training and Research Hospital. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria and provide informed consent will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group or the active control group (36 participants in each group). Randomization will be stratified by baseline HbA1c level. The intervention group will receive a 12-week nurse-led Digital Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) program delivered via a digital platform. The program will be based on the ADCES7™ self-care behaviors and will include structured educational modules, self-monitoring and goal-setting tools, reminders, motivational messages, and interactive communication with a diabetes nurse and, when needed, other members of the multidisciplinary team. The active control group will receive usual diabetes care and access to standard digital written education materials (for example, the Ministry of Health Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patient education brochure in PDF format) via the same platform, as well as basic data entry tools for tracking glucose and related information. However, they will not receive the structured nurse-led DSMES intervention. Primary outcomes will include changes in diabetes self-management behaviors and glycemic control (for example, HbA1c) from baseline to the end of the 12-week intervention. Secondary outcomes will include changes in diabetes-related distress and user satisfaction and usability of the digital program. Data will be collected using validated questionnaires and clinical laboratory results obtained from the hospital records. The findings of this study may provide evidence on the effectiveness of a nurse-led digital DSMES program in improving self-management, glycemic control, and distress among young adults with T2DM and may support the integration of digital education and support into routine diabetes care.
NCT06628362
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group dose-finding study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CT-388 at low, middle, and high doses in participants who are overweight or obese with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
NCT07302178
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains a major global health problem due to its high prevalence, long-term complications, and substantial economic burden. Conventional antidiabetic therapies, including insulin and oral hypoglycemic agents, may cause significant side effects during long-term use and are contraindicated in certain clinical conditions. Therefore, safe and effective herbal-based alternatives are needed. Previous preclinical and early clinical studies have shown that bitter melon (Momordica charantia L.) and snakehead fish (Channa striata) possess antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory properties, including improvement in glucose regulation, stimulation of insulin secretion, and regeneration of pancreatic cells. However, clinical evidence on their combined use remains limited. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the effect of daily supplementation with a combination of bitter melon extract and snakehead fish powder on glycemic status in adults with Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Ninety eligible participants will be randomly assigned to a treatment group receiving 500 mg/day of the herbal combination or a placebo for 4 weeks. Glycemic status will be assessed primarily through glycated albumin (GA) levels. The findings of this study are expected to provide scientific evidence regarding the safety and efficacy of this herbal combination as a complementary antidiabetic therapy.
NCT07057479
This clinical trial is studying whether combining two commonly used diabetes medications into a single pill works better than taking them separately for people with type 2 diabetes who are already on metformin. Both medications work in different ways to lower blood sugar - one helps remove excess sugar through urine while the other helps the body use insulin better. The study has two main goals: To see if the combined pill controls blood sugar more effectively than either medication alone To check if combining them reduces common side effects like weight gain and swelling that can occur with one of the medications Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: The new combination pill One of the standard diabetes medications alone The other standard diabetes medication alone All participants will take their assigned treatment daily and attend regular clinic visits for monitoring. Doctors will track blood sugar control, weight changes, and any side effects throughout the study period. This research could lead to a simpler treatment option that combines the benefits of both medications while potentially minimizing side effects. For people with diabetes who often need multiple medications, a combined pill might make treatment easier to manage while providing better blood sugar control.
NCT07279779
This study evaluated the efficacy of HypnoDiaCare, a two-session integrative intervention that combines clinical hypnosis with diabetes self-management education based on the AADE7 Self-Care Behaviors framework, for adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The trial used a three-arm randomized controlled design with HypnoDiaCare, EduDiaCare (education-only), and a neutral visual attention control group. All participants completed two individual sessions over a 1-2-week interval and completed pretest and posttest assessments. HypnoDiaCare integrates hypnotic induction, guided imagery, ego strengthening, and positive suggestions with diabetes self-management principles. EduDiaCare provides structured education without hypnosis, and the control group viewed neutral images designed to maintain stable emotional and physiological states. After the initial posttest, control-group participants were re-randomized to receive HypnoDiaCare or EduDiaCare to explore delayed-intervention effects. Primary outcomes were diabetes self-management and quality of life, while secondary outcomes included psychological symptoms and affective states. The study aims to determine whether HypnoDiaCare produces greater improvements in self-management and quality of life compared with education-only and attention-control conditions.
NCT06983223
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Sucrosomial® Vitamin B12 supplementation in the management of vitamin B12 deficiency among metformin-treated Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients. The study will compare the impact of daily Sucrosomial® B12 (1,000 mcg) versus placebo on serum vitamin B12 levels, Holo-Transcobalamin II (HoloTCII), and Transcobalamin I (TCI) levels over a 4-week period. Secondary outcomes include assessment of safety, tolerability, and glycemic control (HbA1c). Fifty participants will be randomly assigned to either the Sucrosomial® B12 or placebo group.

In addition, while determining the effect of aromatherapy foot massage on neuropathic pain; it was also aimed to find the source of the reduction in pain. The main questions he aimed to answer are as follows: Does aromatherapy foot massage have an effect on neuropathic pain in patients with type 2 diabetes? Does foot massage have an effect on neuropathic pain in patients with type 2 diabetes? The researchers will compare an oil without aromatherapy oil with a placebo group to see if aromatherapy foot massage reduces neuropathic pain. Participants: Participants will perform the massage treatment three times a week for 4 weeks. Participants will perform foot massage for 10 minutes, 5 minutes on each foot. Participants will be evaluated by calling once a week for 4 weeks.
NCT07255222
Background Middle-aged individuals with T2DM, especially in Asian populations, face a heightened risk of sarcopenia. This condition leads to a decline in muscle mass and function, which negatively impacts their quality of life. Effective interventions are therefore urgently needed to slow the progression of the disease and mitigate these risks. Methods * Study Design: This is a multicenter randomized controlled trial. * Participants: The study plans to recruit 66 adults, aged 45 to 64, with a confirmed diagnosis of T2DM. * Group Assignment: Participants will be randomly assigned to either a control group or an intervention group. * Control Group: Participants will receive only a "Nutrition and Muscle Health Education Sheet" and continue with their routine health management based on existing medical advice. * Intervention Group: Participants will receive the same leaflet along with a "Diabetes and Muscle Health Handbook" and will take part in a 12-week multimodal exercise program. * Assessments: All participants will be assessed at baseline, week 6, and week 12. Outcome Measures * Primary Outcomes: o Physical Function: Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), Five-Times Sit-to-Stand Test (5TSTS), handgrip strength, and Skeletal Muscle Mass Index (SMI). * Secondary Outcomes: * Metabolic Control: Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). * Quality of Life: SF-12 Quality of Life questionnaire. * Sarcopenia Risk: Evaluated by the SARC-CalF questionnaire. Expected Outcomes This study aims to provide an evidence-based and feasible multimodal exercise prescription for middle-aged adults with T2DM. The findings are expected to support early intervention strategies for healthy aging and serve as a valuable reference for clinical practice and the development of public health policies.
