About this study

Official title: Diffuse Optical Spectroscopy Measure Microvascular Changes in Metabolic Syndrome and Diabetes Mellitus in Order to Assess Cardiovascular Disease Risk.

Metabolic Syndrome is a highly prevalent condition that is comprised of several major clustering factors that increase the risk for developing cardiovascular disease. Diffuse Optical Spectroscopy is a non-invasively measure can show changes in the microvasculature of human. Diffuse Optical Spectroscopy measures the optical absorption and scattering properties of near-infrared light in tissues such as muscle in order to quantify the absolute concentration of oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin, water, and lipids. It provides quantitative and functional information on the microvasculature related to tissue perfusion, metabolic changes, and indicators of tissue damage.

Read the detailed description

The researchers can use Diffuse Optical Spectroscopy to monitor changes in the microvasculature of patients with Metabolic Syndrome and diabetic mellitus, and patients with Diabetic Peripheral and Autonomic Neuropathy, versus non-diseased and predisposed subjects by evaluating the changes in oxygen metabolism. The Diffuse Optical Spectroscopy measure the changes in the concentration and oxygen saturation of hemoglobin in the microvasculature under stress, for example, during exercise and in response to changes in breathing habits. The sensitivity of Diffuse Optical Spectroscopy to tissue hemodynamics provides an impressive arena of useful clinical applications..

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus, run by University of California, Irvine 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 3 inclusion and 2 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 Nov 2022. 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in Microvascular (time frame: 4 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 Nov 2022.
