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

Contact Jamie C Lam, MD (852-22555906, lamcmj@hku.hk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of cardiometabolic complications (time frame: 9 years). 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.
