Trial summary

SDB has been identified as an important risk factor for insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome. In a recent study in patients with SDB and T2DM it was shown that CPAP therapy can lead to improvements in postprandial glucose levels and in glycosylated hemoglobin levels (HbA1c).

About this study

SDB has been identified as an important risk factor for insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome.

In a recent study in patients with SDB and T2DM it was shown that CPAP therapy can lead to improvements in postprandial glucose levels and in glycosylated hemoglobin levels (HbA1c).

In children, there are only 3 studies that have examined the relations between SDB, obesity and the metabolic syndrome.

In order to further understand the relative contribution of SDB to the development of impaired glucose homeostasis and metabolic abnormalities we aim to investigate the prevalence and severity of SDB in children with T2DM compared to obese children without T2DM. The investigators hypothesize that SDB will be more prevalent and more severe among obese children with T2DM compared with the general obese pediatric population.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Investigate the prevalence and severity of SDB among children with T2DM compared to its prevalence in non-diabetic obese children.

    Measured: In 6 months

  2. To measure markers of inflammation and oxidative stress known to be associated with cardiovascular morbidity in children with T2DM and SDB compared to non-diabetic obese children.

    Measured: In 6 months

  3. To examine changes in metabolic measures and markers of inflammation and oxidative stress in response to treatment for SDB (adenotonsillectomy) in children with T2DM compared to obese children without T2DM.

    Measured: In 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of SDB and T2DM, run by Tel-Aviv Sourasky Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jan 2014. 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 Israel. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Riva Tauman, Dr. (tauman@tlvmc.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Investigate the prevalence and severity of SDB among children with T2DM compared to its prevalence in non-diabetic obese children. (time frame: In 6 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 15 Jan 2014.
