The purpose of this study was to explore the effectiveness of the "Digital Care Community Common Good" program in improving disease control indicators, self-management abilities, depression, and quality of life among patients with comorbidities and type 2 diabetes. The study was designed as a two-year experimental study, with a specific area in New Taipei City selected as the research site. In the first year, the main tasks include establishing an integrated intervention team composed of primary healthcare providers and community resources, expanding the functionalities of the mHealth platform, developing digital educational materials for diabetes comorbidities care, and recruiting and training 6 to 8 community care volunteers. Additionally, 169 eligible participants with type 2 diabetes and comorbidities will be recruited from four communities, completing baseline assessments and randomization into groups. In the second year, a 6-month intervention and effectiveness evaluation of the " Digital Care Community Common Good " program will be implemented. The intervention includes online and in-person educational sessions, telephone care, use of the mHealth platform (featuring educational, data monitoring, contextual learning, interactive, and reminders), as well as home visits, case discussions, and individualized care plans for high-risk cases. Disease control indicators, selfmanagement abilities, depression, and quality of life will be tracked immediately post-intervention, at 3 month, and at 6 month to assess outcomes and changes over time. This study expects to enhance health management for diabetes patients with comorbidities through digital care and interdisciplinary collaboration, offering evidence-based insights and recommendations for policy implementation in the integration of community and primary healthcare models.
NCT05654142
This is a multisite clinical trial of healthy lifestyle programs for middle-to-older-aged adults (50 -74 years) to improve their weight and, therefore, reduce risk for chronic disease. This study will investigate whether a proven, self-directed video-based lifestyle program can be significantly enhanced with the assistance of a coach via videoconference or phone to help people as they adopt healthy eating and exercise behaviors. Additionally, the study will examine what factors might explain why some people achieve better outcomes than others. Understanding this can help to tailor the program to an individual for personalized care in the future. Importantly, this study aims to demonstrate how readily a digital lifestyle program, with or without remote coaching, can be seamlessly delivered to patients at home via the patient portal of their electronic health record. This practical use of existing telehealth tools could be a feasible and effective means to offer behavioral treatments during routine medical care.
NCT06972407
The investigators recently demonstrated that blockade of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1's (GLP-1) receptor (GLP1R) results in changes in islet function without changes in circulating GLP-1. These effects are more pronounced in people with early type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in keeping with increased expression of PC-1/3 and GLP-1 that is observed in diabetic islets. However, its regulation is at present unknown. Common genetic variation in the TCF7L2 locus (T-allele at rs7903146) arguably confers the greatest genetic risk of T2DM. It is associated with α- and β-cell dysfunction. TCF7L2 (the product of TCF7L2) was first described as the transcription factor necessary for proglucagon expression in intestinal L-cells (which secrete GLP-1). This led to speculation that TCF7L2 confers risk of diabetes via changes in circulating GLP-1. This has turned out to not be the case. This raises the possibility that these diabetogenic effects are mediated via an inability of islet GLP-1 to adapt to rising glycemia. Therefore, this experiment will determine the contribution of islet GLP-1 to the functional abnormalities of the islet associated with the TCF7L2 locus.
NCT05909046
DIP : To conduct a pragmatic, non-blinded randomized controlled trial (pRCT) of immediate in-patient postpartum OGTT prior to delivery discharge (intervention) versus 4-12 week outpatient postpartum OGTT (current standard care) to improve the frequency of post-partum diabetes screening among individuals with a pregnancy complicated by GDM. Follow up PP CARE: To engage with individuals with a history of GDM through a patient-centered mixed-methods survey and qualitative assessment to evaluate the barriers to and facilitators of Cardiovascular health (CVH) counseling and risk-reduction postpartum at the patient and healthcare system levels inclusive of Social determinants of health (SDOH) and structural factors, as well as patient preferences and perspectives on CVH and wellness interventions
NCT05603273
The goal of this study is to improve the therapeutic management of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). The main questions to answer are if a program of non-weight bearing exercise helps the DFU heal faster than standard wound care. This randomized clinical trial will determine how blood flow to the ulcer and whole body metabolism may be improved with exercise. Participants will be randomized to either exercise + standard wound care or standard wound care alone and undergo testing for leg blood flow, fitness and measures of metabolism through blood draws. The intervention period is 6-weeks. Eligible participants must have an existing foot ulcer uncomplicated by infection and be medically cleared to exercise.
NCT06337812
The study team is studying how increasing dietary fiber, specifically through adding potato starch to participant's diet, may impact the species of bacteria in participant's gut microbiome. The study team also wants to understand if adding potato starch to participant's diet helps these bacteria make more short chain fatty acids, a byproduct the team thinks may benefit participant's health.
NCT06211556
The aim of this randomized trial is to determine whether liver fat depletion via a short-term (i.e., two weeks) very-low calorie diet will restore the normal exercise-induced secretion of a signaling protein (fibroblast growth factor 21) from the liver in people living with type 2 diabetes. Participants will have their liver fat, body composition, and various markers of metabolic health assessed and then will be randomized to either the very-low calorie diet intervention or a free-living control group for two weeks. Upon completion of the two-week intervention period, participants will redo all of the pre-intervention assessments. The changes in the assessments from before vs. after the intervention period will be compared between the two intervention groups (i.e., the very-low calorie diet group vs. the free living control group).

NCT06596330
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is one of the most common and fastest growing diseases, affecting 1 in 8 adults (nearly 800 million) worldwide by 2045. Sedentary behavior and increased adiposity are major risk factors for T2D. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in those with T2D, while diabetic microvascular disease, causing kidney disease, neuropathy, and retinopathy, contributes to T2D morbidity. Physical activity is one of the most potent therapies in preventing/treating T2D and its complications. Mean daily steps is a proxy for physical activity, with even modest improvements in step count (i.e., +500 steps) associated with decreased T2D and mortality. However, adherence to regular physical activity remains low in T2D patients, with short-term decreases in daily step count associated with impaired glycemic control and T2D recurrence. The investigators have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) language model (similar to ChatGPT), which can automatically generate coaching prompts to encourage physical activity by incorporating an individual's stage of change. The investigators will extend our research using the My Heart Counts (MHC) smartphone app to 1) validate the efficacy of the AI-generated prompts in patients with T2D and 2) perform a longer-term randomized crossover trial using the language model as a social accountability chatbot - encouraging participants to maintain their physical activity changes over months. The investigators hypothesize that my AI-assisted coaching prompts will significantly increase 1) mean daily step count by 500 steps in 1,000 adults recruited nationwide over a 7-day period, and 2) improve HbA1c and weight via long-term behavior change over a 24-week intervention period.
NCT06453278
This study is conducted to evaluate validity of Diabetes Risk Assessment in Dentistry Score (DDS) in Indian population as a screening tool to identify patients with prediabetes and undiagnosed type 2 diabetes in dental setting. The DDS score of the patient will be correlated with the HbA1c levels and periodontal status of the patient. Such a study has been conducted in Germany but none has been validated in Indian population. Hence this study aims to assess the performance of DDS screening tool in Indian population.
NCT05745090
More than 400 million people have type 2 diabetes (T2D) globally, and the burden of diabetes-related cardiovascular complications is increasing. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) affects approximately one-third of all individuals with T2D and accounts for half of all deaths in this population despite major advances in the treatment of the disease. Among the different types of CVD, heart failure (HF) is frequently the first CVD manifestation in individuals with T2D. Although the link between T2D and CVD is widely recognised, the absolute risk of cardiovascular events varies among individuals with T2D. As such, effective risk-stratification tool that accurately identify T2D patients at the highest risk of developing incident or recurrent cardiovascular (CV) events is needed. B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and its inactive N-terminal precursor NT-proBNP are biomarkers of myocardial stress. They been shown to incrementally improve predictive discrimination of death and CV events in high-risk individuals with T2D. An NT-proBNP-based CVD/HF risk stratification strategy has not been prospectively tested in the multi-ethnic T2D population in Singapore. In this study, we aim to: 1. Evaluate the predictive value of NT-proBNP for death and CV events compared to traditional risk markers \[e.g. HbA1c, albuminuria, high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), high sensitivity troponin-T (hsTnT)\] in a cohort of T2D patients with or without established CVD (defined as ischaemic heart disease, myocardial infarct, unstable angina, prior coronary artery revascularisation, stroke, transient ischaemic attack or PAD) attending a tertiary diabetes care centre. (Patients with history of HF will be excluded.) 2. Compare the performance of NT-proBNP as a single biomarker for CV risk prediction to risk scoring algorithms in T2D patients.
NCT06253728
The overall objective of this research is to determine the digestive faith and health impact of protein and fiber rich foods in different food matrices in type 2 diabetes risk population. This is achieved by controlled postprandial intervention where plasma amino acids, lipids, glucose metabolism, bile acids and microbial metabolites are evaluated as well as fecal microbiota and metabolites.
NCT05947916
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in women of childbearing age is increasing rapidly, and low glucose compliance leads to an increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes for mothers and infants during pregnancy in women with T2DM. Real-time continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is an important tool for glucose monitoring and patient education, as it can continuously record blood glucose throughout the day and provide real-time feedback on high and low blood glucose levels. This is a multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled clinical study to investigate the efficacy, safety, and maternal and infant pregnancy outcomes of using real-time CGM monitoring compared with conventional self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) on the basis of multidisciplinary management in pregnant women with T2DM. One hundred and twenty pregnant women with T2DM in early pregnancy who were enrolled in intensive insulin therapy were randomly divided into the real-time CGM group and the conventional SMBG group. The real-time CGM intervention group wore real-time CGM for more than 50% of the pregnancy in addition to regular SMBG; the control group only performed regular SMBG. Both groups wore Medtronic iPro 2 for 3 days in early, mid and late pregnancy, and the time in the target range of blood glucose (TIR) was recorded in a blinded manner. Primary outcome: differences in TIR between the two groups of pregnant women in early, mid, and late pregnancy. Secondary outcomes included differences in glycated hemoglobin, hypoglycemia, insulin dose before delivery, pregnancy weight gain, and maternal and infant pregnancy outcomes.
NCT05939908
Hand grip strength will be measured for all the type 2 diabetic patients. Measurement of maximal grip strength will be performed using Jamar dynamometers, which estimate the muscle strength primarily generated by the flexor muscles of the hand and the forearm. The Jamar displays grip force in both pounds and kilograms, with a maximum of 200 lb (90 kg). It has a peak-hold needle that automatically retains the highest reading until reset. The Jamar test is isometric, with no perceptible motion of the handle, regardless of the grip strength applied. The participants will be encouraged to produce their maximal grip strength. Three trials will be recorded, consisting of a 2-4-second maximal contraction, with a 30-second rest period between each trial. The average of the three readings will be taken.
NCT05328843
