Overview

The Diabetes-CV study is an observational study designed to assess the prognostic value of serum cardiac damage markers high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI), N-terminal pro-B-natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), and soluble suppression of tumorigenesis-2 (sST2) in predicting mortality, major adverse cardiovascular events, and diabetic complications in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Description

This single-center, investigator-initiated, prospective observational study aims to evaluate the prognostic value of serum cardiac damage markers such as high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI), N-terminal pro-B-natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and soluble suppression of tumorigenesis-2 (sST2) in subjects with type 2 diabetes. The study will utilize clinical and laboratory data from patients attending the Diabetology Unit at the IRCCS INRCA Hospital in Ancona (Italy), including both study-specific data and information extracted from routine outpatient medical records.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • type 2 diabetes
  • patients attending the outpatient services

Exclusion Criteria:

  • type 1 diabetes
  • patients with active cancer or cancer in remission for less than 5 years
  • any medical or other reason that leads the investigator to consider the subject ineligible for the study.

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.
