About this study
During the course of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), several complications can occur. One of these is the development of diastolic and systolic dysfunction (even in the absence of ischemic, valvular or hypertensive heart disease). Such cardiac dysfunction and adverse remodeling is more common in adolescents with T1DM with a worse glycemic control (as evidenced by higher blood glycated hemoglobin HbA1c) concentrations. Even though an association has been observed between higher blood HbA1c concentrations and a worse cardiac function/structure in adolescents with T1DM, less is known about the specific characteristics of the glucoregulation (e.g. number and duration of hyperglycemic or hypoglycemic episodes, age of onset of T1DM,..) in relation to cardiac function/structure in this population. Therefore, the first aim of this study is to identify specific parameters related to glucoregulation which correlate with cardiac function and structure in adolescent with T1DM.
In T1DM, exercise training is generally recommended and included in the guidelines for the care of T1DM (due to beneficial effects on HbA1c levels, cardiovascular risk profile,..). However, as exercise training may increase the risk of hypoglycemic events, many patients may fear exercise, leading to inactivity or sedentarism. Logically, physical activity volumes are diverse in cohorts of this patient population, in which the long-term physically active T1DM patient will display an optimal or preserved cardiopulmonary exercise capacity, while a suboptimal cardiopulmonary exercise capacity will be noticed in mostly sedentary T1DM patients. The second aim of this study is to evaluate the association between cardiac function/structure and cardiopulmonary exercise capacity in adolescent T1DM patients (in the perspective of their physical activity behavior). This study thus may provide greater insights in the etiology and consequences of a disturbed cardiac function/structure in adolescents with T1DM.

Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Belgium. 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?
transthoracic echocardiography (time frame: day 1). 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 12 Aug 2019.
