Trial summary

Revadiab is case-control study aimed to demonstrate that retinal capillary density is altered in patients with type 1 diabetes with glycemic variability compared to those with comparable glycemic control without glycemic variability. An OCT angiography will be used to precisely evaluate retinal capillary density. Read more about this study

About this study

Revadiab is case-control study aimed to demonstrate that retinal capillary density is altered in patients with type 1 diabetes with glycemic variability compared to those with comparable glycemic control without glycemic variability. An OCT angiography will be used to precisely evaluate retinal capillary density.

A secondary objective will be to evaluate if glycemic variability is associated with cognitive dysfunction, using a neuro psychologic evaluation.

Read the detailed description

HbA1c doesn't explain all the microvascular complications of diabetes, especially microvascular complications. Glycemic variability is associated with increased oxidative stress, free radicals and endothelial dysfunction; it contributes to the pathogenesis of diabetic complications.

The relationship between glycemic variability and microangiopathic complications especially retinal but also neurological, needs to be studied.

The principal objective of Revadiab study is to demonstrate a correlation between glycemic variability and macular retinal microcirculation in patient with type 1 diabetes.

The secondary objective is to search a correlation between glycemic variability and :

  • Alteration of cognitive functions.
  • Severity of peripheral diabetic retinopathy and retinal neuronal damage.
  • Other micro and macro angiopathic complications.
  • Oxidative stress and inflammation.

Two groups of type 1 diabetic patients will be compared:

  • Case: Patient with significant glycemic variability.
  • Control: Patients without glycemic variability.

The severity of diabetic retinopathy will be evaluated by the degree of occlusion of small vessels in the central retinal region as measured by OCT angiography.

Acts or Product necessary to research :

  • Non-invasive retinal imaging (OCT and OCT- Angiography, retinophotography)
  • Neuropsychological tests.
  • Blood test.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Microvascular Complications and Diabetic Retinopathy, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 6 inclusion and 7 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 10 Jun 2024. 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 France. 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?

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?

Macular capillary density in the external deep capillary network (time frame: 3 months). 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 10 Jun 2024.
