About this study

Official title: Population Research of Sublingual Microcirculation Data of Patients With Systemic Diseases

This is an observational clinical study, patients with systemic diseases will be enrolled according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. 360 patients will received the examination of sublingual microcirculation by using sidestream dark filed video microscope. The microcirculation data includes total small vessel density, perfused small vessel density, microvascular flow index, and heterogeneity index. The patients will be divided into right groups according to their systemic diseases as follows: group 1 hypertension (60 patients), group 2 diabetes mellitus (60), group 3 hypertension and diabetes mellitus (60), group 4 end stage renal disease with hemodialysis (60), group 5 peripheral arterial occlusive disease (30), group 6 coronary artery disease (30), group 7 liver cirrhosis (30), and group 8 anemia (30).

What is being measured

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

  1. Total small vessel density of sublingual small vessels

    Total small vessel density will be measured by Microscan and analyzed by AVA 3.0 software

    Measured: Once at enrollment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Perfused small vessel density of sublingual small vessels

    Perfused small vessel density will be measured by Microscan and analyzed by AVA 3.0 software

    Measured: Once at enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sublingual Microcirculation Status, run by National Taiwan University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 11 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Taiwan. 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 Yu-Chang Yeh, M.D., Ph.D (886-2-23123456 ext. 62158, tonyyeh@ntuh.gov.tw), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Total small vessel density of sublingual small vessels (time frame: Once at enrollment). 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.
