Scientific title | |
Study objectives | Nateglinide is a new oral hypoglycemic agent that increases insulin secretion. In contrast to other oral hypoglycemic agents it mainly decreases postprandial hyperglycemia and it has this effect with lower risk for hypoglycemic events. Postprandial hyperglycemia appears in the early stages with type two diabetes mellitus and we hypothesise that the use of nateglinide at these stages should improve glycemic control (in terms of HbA1c levels and postprandial hyperglycemia) without any significant increases of its adverse effects. |
Ethics approval(s) | The current study received Ethical Committees approval at all the participating sites: Hospital Virgen del Rocio, Hospital Infanta Elena, Hospital Reina Sofia, C.M. Teknon, Hospital Sant Joan, Hospital Universitario de Valme, Hospital Puerta del Mar, CAP Sils, Hospital Clínic i Universitari de Barcelona, Hospital de Sabadell, CAP El Remei, Hospital de La Merced, EAP Cervera, CS Torrero Este, Unidad de Calidad de Formación, Fundació Sarda Farriol, Hospital Esperit Sant, Hospital La Macarena, Clínica Corachán, CAP Cerdenya, CS Los Comuneros, Hospital San Vicente Raspeig, CS Petrel and CAP Centelles. |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Type two diabetes mellitus with more than five years of evolution |
