Trial summary

Objective: The main target of this study was to research the early changes of retrobulbar and intrarenal hemodynamics, then to research the correlation between them in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients without diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and diabetic retinopathy (DR). Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 35 to 66 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The investigators selected 45 T2DM patients (25 males, 20 females) without microangiopathy (DR and DKD) as diabetes group and 38 healthy people (21 males, 17 females) as control group from the diabetic outpatient clinic in Shenyang the Fourth Hospital of People, but only 34 patients (19 males, 15 females) in the diabetes group and 32 healthy people (17 males, 15 females) can be researched in our study, all the participants were the Chinese Hans. All patients were provided a diet and exercise program by professional nutritionists.

Who may be able to join

  • The patients were diagnosed with T2DM according to the guidelines of the American Diabetes Association ;
  • No smoking history, pulmonary disease, cold, nor pulmonary infection within a fortnight;
  • Did not have hepatopathy, nephropathy, hyperuricemia, and gastrointestinal disease; and
  • Likely to have good compliance and able to visit our hospital for periodic assessments.

Who cannot join

  • T1DM, gestation and lactation;
  • Renal inadequacy,hypohepatia,and heart failure;
  • Intensive care with insulin treatment;
  • The patients combined with DR and hypertension (antihypertensive drugs were used);
  • Patients with other eye conditions that could affect the blood flow, such as high degree myopia, maculopathy of any origin, glaucoma, and those with a history of laser treatment or intraocular surgery;
  • The patients combinated with DKD;
  • Patients with other renal conditions that could affect the blood flow, such as urolithiasis, urinary infection, and renal cyst (diameter > 3 cm);
  • Cholesterol-lowering drugs can not control the blood-fat (TC > 250 mg/dl, HDL-C < 30 mg/dL, LDL-C > 170 mg/dl, TG > 200 mg/dl) adequately.

About this study

Objective: The main target of this study was to research the early changes of retrobulbar and intrarenal hemodynamics, then to research the correlation between them in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients without diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and diabetic retinopathy (DR).

Method: 35 T2DM patients (diabetes group) without vascular complications and 30 healthy people (control group) were recruited to research the early changes of renal function, retrobulbar and intrarenal hemodynamics, and then to research the correlation between them. The primary endpoints were the intrarenal hemodynamic (bilateral kidney RI) in bilateral interlobular renal arteries were evaluated using Doppler Sonographic; the secondary endpoints were the retrobulbar hemodynamics RI in the bilateral central retinal artery (CRA), posterior ciliary artery (PCA), and arteria ophthalmica (OA) were evaluated using color doppler imaging (CDI); the tertiary endpoints were the biochemical endpoints: blood-fat (TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, and TG), FPG, 2hPG, HbA1c, and renal function parameters (BUN, Cr, and GFR); in addition, the albumin excrete rate (AER), urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR) were measured.

What is being measured

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

  1. Intrarenal hemodynamic (bilateral kidney RI) in bilateral interlobular renal arteries were evaluated using Doppler Sonographic in 34 patients

    RI(resistivity index)

    Measured: 3 weeks

  2. Retrobulbar RI in the bilateral Retrobulbar artery were evaluated using color doppler imaging (CDI) in 34 patients

    RI(resistivity index),Retrobulbar artery[central retinal artery (CRA), posterior ciliary artery (PCA), and arteria ophthalmica (OA)]

    Measured: 3 weeks

  3. The correlation between the bilateral retrobulbar RI and bilateral kidney RI in 34 patients

    RI(resistivity index)

    Measured: 3 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2, run by Fourth People's Hospital of Shenyang.

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 4 inclusion and 8 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 20 Jun 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Intrarenal hemodynamic (bilateral kidney RI) in bilateral interlobular renal arteries were evaluated using Doppler Sonographic in 34 patients (time frame: 3 weeks). 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 20 Jun 2016.
