About this study

Official title: A Prospective Study of Appropriate Technology of Standardized Diagnosis and Treatment for Diabetic Patients With Complication of Pulmonary Infection

Focusing on patients with diabetes complicated with pulmonary infection, the purpose of this study is: 1) to identify the epidemiology, etiologic spectrum and status of diagnosis and treatment; 2) to develop a symptom score scale , clarify the risk factors and create a precise warning model; 3) to develop a rapid detection of pathogen of lower respiratory infection, to establish clinical pathways of early diagnosis and treatment of diabetes complicated with pulmonary infections (including bacterial, tuberculosis and fungal infections) and then make an application in clinic.

Read the detailed description

Investigators perform a observational study on 6000 patients with diabetes, among which 200 patients with pulmonary infection are included in a retrospective study and 100 patients go through metabolomics research. All patients receive clinical questionnaires, laboratory examinations and pulmonary function tests. Investigators study on pathogen distribution and infection ratio of patients above depending on follow-up survey. 1:1 nested case-control study is carried out involving 100 cases from pulmonary-infected group paired with 100 control cases matched for gender, age and fasting blood-glucose. The final purpose is to create a precise warning model in order to develop a rapid detection of pathogen of lower respiratory infection in diabetes patients. Now investigators wish to register this study to do a further research, in order to improve the early diagnosis of diabetes complicated with pulmonary infection and to reduce the mortality.

What is being measured

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

  1. Survival at 30 Days

    Accuracy and sensitivity of novel survival prediction algorithm derived from differences between the predicted and actual 30-day-survival of patients from different groups.

    Measured: 30 days from date of diagnosis of pulmonary infection until the date of death from any cause.

  2. Survival at 90 Days

    Accuracy and sensitivity of novel survival prediction algorithm derived from differences between the predicted and actual 90-day-survival of patients from different groups.

    Measured: 90 days from date of diagnosis of pulmonary infection until the date of death from any cause.

  3. Survival at 1 Year

    Accuracy and sensitivity of novel survival prediction algorithm derived from differences between the predicted and actual 1-year-survival of patients from different groups.

    Measured: 1 year from date of diagnosis of pulmonary infection until the date of death from any cause.

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Hospitalization Time

    Differences in the time of hospital stay including ordinary sickroom and ICU of patients from different groups.

    Measured: Every 6 months from date of diagnosis of pulmonary infection until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 3 years

  2. Sepsis

    Differences in the primary and secondary sepsis after therapy according to guideline from different groups.

    Measured: Every 6 months from date of diagnosis of pulmonary infection until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 3 years

  3. CURB-65 Score

    Differences in confusion, urea, respiratory rate and age 65 scoring system from different groups.

    Measured: Every 6 months from date of diagnosis of pulmonary infection until the date of death from any cause, assessed up to 3 years

  4. Inflammatory Parameters

    Differences in CRP, PCT, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α from different groups.

    Measured: Day 0, day 3, day 10-14 and final result from date of diagnosis of pulmonary infection until the date of death or cure from any cause, assessed up to 1 years

  5. Fungal Infection Examinations

    Assessment of G test and GM test in order to clarify the diagnosis of fungal infection.

    Measured: Day 0, day 3, day 10-14 and final result from date of diagnosis of pulmonary infection until the date of death or cure from any cause, assessed up to 1 years

  6. Cryptococcal Infection Examinations

    Assessment latex agglutination test in order to clarify the cryptococcal infection.

    Measured: Day 0, day 3, day 10-14 and final result from date of diagnosis of pulmonary infection until the date of death or cure from any cause, assessed up to 1 years

  7. Cell-mediated Immunoserologic Indexs

    Differences of CD3, CD4 and CD8 in different groups in order to research on cell-mediated immunity of patients with or without diabetes and pulmonary infection.

    Measured: Day 0, day 3, day 10-14 and final result from date of diagnosis of pulmonary infection until the date of death or cure from any cause, assessed up to 1 years

  8. Humoral Immunoserologic Indexes

    Differences of IgG, IgA, IgE and IgM in different groups in order to research on cell-mediated immunity of patients with or without diabetes and pulmonary infection.

    Measured: Day 0, day 3, day 10-14 and final result from date of diagnosis of pulmonary infection until the date of death or cure from any cause, assessed up to 1 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diabetes Mellitus and Pulmonary Infection, run by Ruijin Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Oct 2020. 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 China. 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?

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?

Survival at 30 Days (time frame: 30 days from date of diagnosis of pulmonary infection until the date of death from any cause.). 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 8 Oct 2020.
