The aim of this review was to summarize the benefits and harms of several drugs commonly used for the treatment of adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

This study based in Australia will evaluate the safety of switching drug treatment for diabetic macular edema. Patients will be assessed after 6 months for decreased swelling and thickness of the eye, and improvements in vision. Success of the study will be based on improvement in vision and decreased swelling.

This study evaluated blood glucose control in adults and children with type 1 diabetes on a very low-carbohydrate diet (VLCD). This study concluded that this diet may provide exceptional control for type 1 diabetes, with minimal side effects.

This Phase 2 study recruiting in Illinois aims to test whether a vitamin D supplement can improve memory performance in type 2 diabetes patients with memory problems. The main outcome measures will be cognitive performance and ability to manage diabetes. 

This study examined whether the meal-time insulin dose should be calculated based on the carbohydrate count or the combination of carbohydrate plus protein. The study concluded that calculating the dose based on both carbohydrate and protein may be more effective.

The main objective of this trial is to determine the safety and effectiveness of transplanting islet cells (pancreas cells that produce insulin) onto the omentum (skin that forms the stomach lining and connects the stomach to other abdominal organs). The main outcome will be the number of patients who achieve normal blood glucose levels without complications. This trial is recruiting in Miami, Florida (US).

This study investigated if intensive blood pressure control affected self-reported patient outcomes.

They found that patients undergoing intensive control reported similar levels of quality of life and treatment satisfaction as patients undergoing a standard control regimen.

This study compared the safety of using three different medications to treat type 2 diabetes (T2D) with using only two of those medications. It was determined that using three medications was as safe as using two.

This study investigated the effectiveness of low-glycemic index (GI) diets in patients with type 2 diabetes. The authors concluded that the low-glycemic index diets are more effective in controlling blood sugar levels compared to high-glycemic index or other diets in these patients.

This study investigated if catheter-based renal denervation can manage hypertension without medication.

They found that patients that underwent renal denervation had reduced blood pressure measures over three months.
