About this study

To study cardiac and vascular structure and function in a population of adolescents with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) compared to a similar group with obesity alone and a similar non-obese group.

Read the detailed description

BACKGROUND:

The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus has increased dramatically in adolescents. This appears to be a direct result of the increase in prevalence and severity of obesity in the pediatric population. In adults with type 2 diabetes, it is well known that the risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) is quite high. This has led to current clinical recommendation that adults with diabetes be considered equivalent in risk to those adults who already have existing coronary artery disease. It is not known if adolescents with type 2 diabetes have an equivalent high level of risk of CVD as the adult population. If they do then it would be expected that they would develop clinical CVD in their late 20's or 30's. This would have important clinical implications and would suggest the need for very aggressive management of CVD risk factors and diabetes.

DESIGN NARRATIVE:

The study is a cross-sectional evaluation of cardiac and vascular structure and function in a population of adolescents with type 2 diabetes compared to a group with similar age, sex, race and BMI with obesity alone and a non obese group with similar age, sex and race. 300 subjects with type 2 diabetes, 300 subjects with obesity and 300 non obese subjects will be studied. Assessment of CVD development will be accomplished using novel non invasive imaging methods for subclinical atherosclerosis including echocardiographic measurement of cardiac structure and function, ultrasound evaluation of carotid intimal medial thickness, and evaluation of endothelial function by brachial artery reactivity. The primary hypothesis is that adolescents with type 2 diabetes will have greater abnormality in cardiac and vascular structure and function compared to controls with obesity. Subjects with obesity alone will have greater abnormality in cardiac and vascular structure and function compared to controls who are not obese. Correlates of cardiac and vascular abnormalities including markers of inflammation, adiponectin, diet and physical activity will also be evaluated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiovascular Diseases and Diabetes Mellitus, run by Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Aug 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Aug 2012.
