DIABETES (DM)

This completed trial tested whether providing free, healthy food boxes every two weeks for six months could improve blood sugar control and health behaviors in adults with type 2 diabetes living in a low-income community. 405 participants were randomly assigned to receive the foo…

This study tested whether computer analysis of voice recordings can detect type 2 diabetes. Over 7,000 adults in the UK recorded themselves reading and answering questions online. A subset also provided blood samples to check accuracy. The goal is to see if voice biomarkers could…

This study tested four different ways of giving dilating eye drops to 84 diabetic patients who needed eye exams for diabetic retinopathy. The goal was to find which method works best to get the pupil large enough for a good exam. Researchers measured pupil size and watched for si…

This pilot study tested whether a structured foot-ankle exercise program could help adults with type 2 diabetes manage nerve pain, stress, and quality of life, compared to walking or standard care. Over 12 weeks, 108 participants either did foot-ankle exercises, walked regularly,…

This completed study looked at how well Danish hospitals followed official guidelines for managing blood sugar in people with diabetes who had major, non-cardiac surgery. Researchers reviewed records from over 13,000 patients treated between 2017 and 2023. They focused on whether…

This study looked at over 4,000 ICU patients to find out how many have undiagnosed diabetes or prediabetes. Researchers used a blood test (HbA1c) to check blood sugar control and tracked whether these conditions led to more organ failure or death. The goal is to better understand…

This study analyzed data from over 16,500 adults with chronic heart failure who were part of a remote monitoring program in France. Researchers looked at how having diabetes, other health conditions, and short-term weight changes were linked to survival. The goal was to better un…

This study tested whether people with diabetes can use a smartphone game to monitor their vision at home, instead of always going to the clinic. 55 participants at high risk for diabetic retinopathy played vision games on their phones for 6 months. The goal was to see if people w…

This study examined 95 adults with diabetes and gum disease to see if blood sugar control and gum disease severity are linked to changes in gum cells. Researchers looked at cell samples under a microscope for signs of damage. The goal was to better understand how these conditions…

This study looked at how people with below-knee amputations sense hot and cold on their skin and how their blood vessels react to temperature changes. Researchers tested 56 participants, including those with and without diabetes, to find the temperature thresholds where warmth or…

This study looked at 120 adults with type 2 diabetes and gum disease to see how well their blood sugar was controlled and how it related to the severity of gum problems and cavities. Researchers measured gum health, tooth decay, and HbA1c levels (a measure of blood sugar control)…
