PBMC as Biomarkers of Diabetic Cardiomyopathy
Type 2 diabetes (T2D), especially when associated with metabolic syndrome (MS) is at high risk to develop heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) or heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF), and the specific impact of T2D+MS in cardiac function impairment is usually known as "diabetic cardiomyopathy" (DC). …
Deep Phenotyping of Bone Disease in Type 2 Diabetes and Relations to Diabetic Neuropathy
Objectives The goal of this cross sectional clinical trial is to examine the phenotype of bone disease in type 2 diabetes.The main aims are to: Compare bone microarchitecture, bone biomechanical competence, and bone turnover markers as well as postural control in T2D patients with and without fractures. Examine how autonomic …
Vitamin D and Immune Mechanisms of Hypertension in Type 2 Diabetics
This trial will evaluate whether a particular type of circulating white blood cell, monocytes, from type 2 diabetics with high blood pressure and vitamin D deficiency vs. sufficiency will induce hormones that increase blood pressure.
Effectiveness of Physical Exercise of Patients With Chronic Non-communicable Disease
According to the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), chronic, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the main cause of death and disability in the world. The term, NCD refers to a group of diseases that are not primarily caused by acute infection and result in long-lasting health consequences, with significant long-term care …
The PRECISION II Study: Evaluating the Accuracy of the LabPatch Glucose Sensing System
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of the Cambridge Medical Technologies, LLC second generation (2nd Gen) LabPatch glucose sensing system compared to a laboratory glucose analyzer (YSI 2300 STAT Plus) and 2 commercial glucometers, OneTouch Verio and Freestyle Lite. The primary endpoint of this study is …
Remote Fetal Monitoring in High Risk Pregnancies
Antenatal nonstress tests (NSTs) are performed to assess fetal health and are used as a cost-effective test that can be widely administered. However, an NST is operator-dependent due to the nature of Doppler ultrasound and is primarily performed in a clinic and hospital setting. The ability to conduct a clinically …
Understanding Metabolism and Inflammation Risks for Diabetes in Adolescents
This research study collects health-related information and blood samples to better understand how body composition, lifestyle habits, and diet influence meta-inflammatory monocytes (MiMos) in adolescents. The hypothesis of this study is that adolescents at risk for metabolic disease have enhanced MiMo related activities leading to insulin resistance.
Vascular Regenerative Cell Exhaustion in Adults with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD-VRCE)
PAD-VRCE is an observational, cross-sectional, two arm study aimed at determining if the presence of peripheral artery disease (PAD) can influence the number of circulating regenerative cells in blood. From peripheral blood samples, circulating progenitor cell content will be assessed via flow cytometry and compared between individuals with PAD and …
Harnessing Macrophage Lysosomal Lipid Metabolism in Obesity (ATM)
The goal of this study is to evaluate the role of transcription factor EB (TFEB) in adipose (fat) tissue macrophages (ATM) in regulating adipose tissue and systemic metabolic function in obesity. The investigators will assess the differences in ATM lipid metabolism in people with metabolically abnormal obesity and lean individuals. …
Optimized Care of People With Diabetes and Foot Complication in Primary Care
The goal of this observational study is to create and evaluate and new management, by using eHealth tools, to prevent diabetic foot ulcers. The main questions it aims to answer are: Validation Is a method for foot assessment, that uses eHealth tools, valid regarding its usefulness? b. Is a method …
