Physical Activity Satisfaction in Type 1 Diabetes With Closed-Loop Pump
This study asks people with type 1 diabetes who use an automated insulin pump (closed-loop system) about their satisfaction with different types of physical activity. The goal is to understand how well the pump helps manage blood sugar during exercise and what activities feel most comfortable.
GrenobleAges 18 years+ - NCT07566845Enrolling by invitation
High-intensity exercise for women after gestational diabetes
This study tests whether high-intensity interval training (HIIT)—short bursts of intense exercise—can help women who had gestational diabetes during pregnancy stay healthy and prevent type 2 diabetes. You'll do supervised workouts over several months while researchers track your health.
Odense, Region SyddanmarkAges 25–45 - NCT07561541RecruitingPhase 4
Extended Antibiotics for Diabetic Leg Fracture Surgery
This study tests whether taking antibiotics for a longer time helps prevent infections in people with poorly controlled diabetes who need surgery for a lower leg or foot fracture. Since diabetes makes infections more likely after surgery, extra antibiotics might reduce that risk.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07567833RecruitingPhase 4
Tracking Eye Function After Diabetes Swelling Treatment
This study follows patients with diabetic eye swelling (a complication of diabetes affecting the macula, the part of your eye needed for detailed vision) who are receiving anti-VEGF injections—a standard treatment that reduces abnormal blood vessel growth. Researchers will measure how well your retina (the light-sensitive tissue in your eye) recovers and functions over time.
Augusta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07564752Recruiting
How Better Blood Sugar Control Affects Cholesterol in Type 1 Diabetes
This study compares how blood fats (especially HDL cholesterol) differ between people with well-controlled type 1 diabetes and people without diabetes. Researchers want to understand if improving blood sugar control can help improve these protective blood fats.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT03316261Recruiting
Testing newborns for type 1 diabetes risk
This study looks at infants to find how likely they are to develop type 1 diabetes later in life. If you have a newborn who is very young, you may be able to take part by allowing the study team to test them as part of early risk screening.
MunichAges 1 day–1 month - NCT04039945Recruiting
Early checkup and care program for type 1 diabetes
This study looks at early diagnosis and support for people with type 1 diabetes. You may be invited to participate if a parent or guardian agrees to enroll your child.
