Diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) is the most common metabolic disease and its prevalence is rapidly increasing. T2DM is a chronic disease that affects over 451 million people in the world and this number is expected to increase over the years and it is estimated that in 2045 there will be in the
Our project is based on implementation of a telemonitoring and case management BP program for remote dwellers with diabetes and CKD in remote regions of Alberta. Our aim is to determine the impact of the intervention on BP control and other CKD risk factors, achievement of guideline-concordant
Patient population and setting. We will identify all patients undergoing their first PD catheter insertion during the study period, at 20 participating centers in Canada and the USA (see Appendix 1). A total of 800 cases have been captured to date during our pilot study and an additional 1,520 cases
Introduction. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) are prioritized as a second-line therapy for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D), especially in patients with a history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) or when there is a need to avoid weight gain and hypoglycemia. Randomized
Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in diabetes. Actually, systematic screening of asymptomatic diabetic patients for silent myocardial ischemia is highly controversial, and is recommended for selected high-risk patients.
Calcium artery calcification score predicts major
The dysfunction of wound healing in diabetes involves multiple healing processes by diminished inflammatory responses and delayed deposition of matrix components, wound remodeling, and closure. Furthermore, hyperglycemia increases the infection susceptibility of wounds. The wounds noted at distal
STUDY DESIGN AND POPULATION:
Randomized interventional study. From 2015 to 2018, 16,660 participants (8,330 in the intervention group (Mobile Unit Follow-up Group) and 8,330 in the no intervention group (Electronic Medical History Follow-up Group)) aged between 45 and 70 years without a previous
THE AIM
The objective of this study is to:
Study I: Compare the prevalence and complexity of coronary plaques in patients with newly discovered type-2 diabetes with a healthy control group matched for age and gender, as evaluated by coronary computed tomography angiography.
Study II: Describe the
General Context Chronic Kidney Patients (CKD) live a sedentary life. Sedentarity and Sarcopenia worsen during the evolution of CKD with numerous cardiovascular diseases, infectious and other comorbidities. Inactivity may activate and amplify the inflammatory process, hypercoagulability,
Aim:
To determine the effectiveness of oral diclophenac sodium on the quality of colonoscopy and pain control during diagnostic colonoscopy in hospitalized patients.
Hypothesis:
Null hypothesis: there is no statistically significant difference between diclophenac sodium and placebo on parameters of
Rationale for this Study Primary Existing routine health statistics underestimates the rate of morbidity due to diabetes complications. To provide more realistic estimation of morbidity, repeated epidemiological studies are essential in assessment of tendencies in diabetes medical care at the
Why is this clinical problem important?
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is a major health problem in Australia, with a prevalence of 15% in males aged over 65 years. The direct health care cost of PAD in Australia was $180m in 1994, of which 78% was associated with hospitalisations. PAD is also a
Study design and patients:
This study will be conducted using a prospective, single-arm pre-/post-intervention design over 2 years. Fifty consecutive stage 3 and 4 CKD patients with resistant hypertension from the Regina Qu'Appelle Health Region (RQHR) multidisciplinary CKD clinic who agree to
There is now a global epidemic of diabetes and obesity affecting more than 300 million people worldwide with Asia in the forefront. In Hong Kong, diabetes affects more than 10% of the population. Patients with diabetes have a 12-25% lifetime risk of developing a foot ulcer. These silent conditions
BACKGROUND Arterial hypertension, in particular systolic hypertension, is a common component of the metabolic syndrome, a syndrome of hypertension, abdominal obesity, dyslipidemia, impaired glucose tolerance and increased urinary albumin excretion sustained by decreased tissue sensitivity to insulin
