Overview

Type 2 diabetes (T2D), especially when associated with metabolic syndrome (MS) is at high risk to develop heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) or heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF), and the specific impact of T2D+MS in cardiac function impairment is usually known as "diabetic cardiomyopathy" (DC). Cardiac remodelling (ie hypertrophy) and subtle myocardial dysfunction are highly prevalent in T2D+MS but not specific enough to predict further HFpEF or HFmrEF. Also, current biomarkers can identify but do not predict HFpEF or HFmrEF in T2D patients; Furthermore, specific biomarkers are needed. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) obtained from a peripheral blood sample can provide insights from calcic and inflammatory pathways, and may identify more specific molecular signatures shared between T2D+MS and HFpEF.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

Inclusion criteria common to the 4 groups:

  • Patient coming for a scheduled cardiology or endocrinology visit as part of their follow-up
  • Patient coming on an empty stomach for the blood test
  • Male or female aged between 40 and 80 inclusive
  • Patient without systemic disease and/or without anti-inflammatory treatment
  • Patient not objecting to this research
  • Patient accepting the conservation of biological samples and the performance of genetic analyzes

Group 1: No-T2D +MS / No-HF (control group)

  • Patient without T2D or MS and without heart failure coming to a consultation or day hospital for another reason (e.g. screening for atypical symptom, etc.)

Group 2: No-T2D +MS / HFpEF or HFmrEF

  • Patient without T2D or MS
  • HFpEF or HFmrEF. diagnosed

Group 3: T2D+MS / no-HF

  • Patient diagnosed with T2D+MS

Group 4: T2D +MS / HFpEF or HFmrEF

  • Patient diagnosed with T2D and MS
  • HFpEF or HFmrEF. diagnosed

Exclusion Criteria:

Non-inclusion criteria common to the 4 groups:

  • History (ATCD) of cardiovascular disease (valvular (more than moderate valve disease), radiation, post-cardiotoxic chemotherapy, amyloidosis, etc.) other than HFpEF or HFmrEF
  • Atrial fibrillation or permanent flutter ( paroxysmal AF is not a non-inclusion criterion: the rhythm must be sinus at the time of the ultrasound)
  • Systemic disease and/or anti-inflammatory treatment
  • ATCD of known coronary artery disease
  • Unbalanced hypertension (>160/100 mmHg)
  • Pregnant and lactating women on questioning

  • Subject participating in another interventional research including a period of exclusion still in progress.
  • Chronic kidney disease(GFR<30ml/min/1.73m2)

Group 1: No-T2D +MS / No-HF (control group)

  • Presence of diabetes (whatever the type) and MS
  • Presence of heart failure or other known heart disease

Group 2: No-T2D +MS / HFpEF or HFmrEF

  • Presence of diabetes (whatever the type) and MS
  • No Heart failure
  • Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) on ultrasound ≤ 40%

Group 3: T2D+MS / no-HF

  • Without diabetes or other type of diabetes than T2D
  • Presence of Heart failure or other known coronary artery disease

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
