Cystic fibrosis-related diabetes

This pilot study tested the drug semaglutide (a GLP-1 receptor agonist, like Ozempic) in 8 overweight or obese adults with cystic fibrosis-related diabetes who were already using insulin. The goal was to see if adding semaglutide could safely help with weight loss and improve blo…

This study tested whether tranexamic acid, a drug that helps blood clot, can lower the chance of infection after gastrointestinal surgery. Over 3,300 adults at higher risk for complications took part. The goal was to see if the drug reduces surgical site infections compared to a …

This study tested two common methods of dosing mealtime insulin in people with cystic fibrosis-related diabetes: counting carbohydrates versus using a fixed dose. Researchers used continuous glucose monitors to track blood sugar levels and see which method kept glucose in a healt…

This study tested two types of endoscopes used in ERCP, a procedure to treat bile duct and pancreas problems. One scope had a single-use plastic cover on its tip, while the other was a standard reusable scope. Researchers compared how well each worked and how often complications …

This study tested custom-made insoles for people with diabetic foot to see if they improve balance and walking. Twenty-five participants aged 40 to 65 with early-stage diabetic foot issues were included. The insoles were designed using pressure measurements to offload high-pressu…

This study tested a 12-week online mind-body program for adults with chronic conditions like heart failure, cancer, and liver disease. The program included mindful movement, meditation, breathwork, and coping skills. Researchers measured changes in anxiety, depression, fatigue, a…

This study explored how family members share health information about genetic diseases like sickle cell, diabetes, and cancer. Over 1,000 adults completed surveys or interviews about their family health history and support. The goal was to understand social and relational factors…

This completed observational study at Uşak University examined 150 adults hospitalized in the endocrinology department. Researchers measured breathing, muscle strength, pain, fatigue, sleep quality, physical activity, balance, and nerve function. The goal was to better understand…

This study looked at whether a blood test can measure beta cell death in people with cystic fibrosis, which may help predict diabetes. About 40 participants with cystic fibrosis and healthy controls gave blood samples to check for a specific DNA marker. The goal was to understand…

This study tested whether special communication training for pharmacists and general practitioners helps them involve older patients in decisions to stop or lower medications for heart disease and diabetes. Researchers enrolled 310 patients aged 75 and older who were taking certa…

This study tested whether taking acetaminophen (like Tylenol) interferes with a new continuous glucose monitor called Biolinq. Thirty-one adults with diabetes wore the Biolinq sensor and a standard CGM for three days. On day three, they took acetaminophen and researchers compared…

This completed study looked at how blood sugar levels affect sleep in 30 adults with cystic fibrosis-related diabetes. Participants wore devices at home to track glucose and sleep for 10 days. The goal was to see if this kind of remote monitoring is practical and to gather early …

This completed study looked at how diet and exercise change blood sugar levels in 61 adults with diabetes. Researchers used advanced tests (genomics, proteomics, etc.) to understand the body's complex response. The goal is to build a tool that helps doctors personalize diabetes c…

This study looked at how many girls and young women aged 11 to 20 with chronic diseases (like diabetes or immune conditions) got the HPV vaccine, compared to those without chronic illness. Researchers reviewed records of 223 participants from a hospital in France. The goal was to…

This study followed 230 people with cystic fibrosis to understand why some develop diabetes and why it sometimes reverses. Researchers tracked genetics, lung health, infections, diet, and physical activity over a year. The goal is to improve how diabetes is screened and treated i…
