A Randomized, Multi-Center, Pivotal Efficacy and Safety Study Evaluating the RESET System for Glycemic Improvement in Patients with Inadequately Controlled Type 2 Diabetes and Obesity, the STEP-1 Study. A multi-center, double-blinded, randomized, sham-controlled trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the RESET System plus moderate intensity lifestyle and dietary counseling compliant with 2024 ADA Standard of Care as compared to a sham control receiving moderate intensity lifestyle and dietary counseling. Both the treatment and sham group will practice medical management compliant with STEP-1 Study Guidelines. Patients will be randomized 3 (RESET):1 (Sham). Read Less

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate cardiometabolic and inflammatory parameters in kidney transplant recipients after transitioning to a plant-based diet (PBD). The main aims of the study are as follows: * To test the feasibility of transiting renal allograft recipients who are \> 3 months post-transplant to a PBD * To study the effect of a PBD on cardiometabolic parameters in kidney transplant recipients * To assess the effect of a PBD on peripheral blood Th17/Treg ratio and systemic inflammation in kidney transplant recipients Participants will be asked to: * Complete a 2-week investigator-designed PBD transition program * Follow a PBD for a minimum of 16 weeks * Consent for blood draws, urine samples, and fecal samples along with physical exams * Complete intermittent food frequency questionnaires and quality of life questionnaires * Periodically meet with investigators and other study participants Researchers will compare baseline measurements with future measurements for each participant.

This is an interventional study that will evaluate the feasibility, implementation, and efficacy of an online, 12-week, plant-based, nutrition education program in a community setting. Data will also be analyzed to see if participation in the program results in reductions glycated hemoglobin levels, body weight, and cholesterol levels. Read Less

The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of personalized postpartum follow-up cards on completion of postpartum health related tasks. The intervention will consist of a card given to patients at time of discharge. One side of the card will list the patient's name and a list of recommended postpartum follow-up appointments based on their diagnoses at the time of discharge. Participants will be randomized to this intervention or the control group, which will consist of standard education routinely given at discharge. The primary endpoint will be the rate of completion of a postpartum blood pressure check or two hour glucose tolerance test, or both, depending on the patient's discharge diagnosis within the first year after discharge. The secondary endpoints will include establishing care with a primary care provider within the first year after delivery, or completion of postpartum pap smear or colposcopy, as indicated. Read Less

The investigators propose to conduct a pilot prospective cohort study to assess the impact of shared medical appointments (SMA) visits in underserved youth with poorly controlled type 1 diabetes (T1D). The trial will employ an enrollment visit, SMA visits every 3 months over a 12 month study period, followed by a 6-month observational period to assess feasibility and acceptability of SMA and the impact on glycemic control, self-management skills, and health related quality of life.

This initiative supports a real-world study of practice and physician prescribing patterns and a quality improvement initiative evaluating best practices (including clinical decision support, facilitated referral to cardiometabolic team-based care model, and general educational tools/resources) to im-prove use of guideline-directed therapeutics known to lower cardiovascular risk (CV) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).
