Trial summary

The aim of the study is to determine whether selenoprotein activity and blood renalase level correlate with subclinical hypertensive heart disease and obstructive sleep apnea. The correlation will be assessed using selected electrocardiographic, ultrasound and laboratory indicators. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Role of Selenoprotein Activity and Blood Renalase Level in the Pathogenesis of Hypertension and Obstructive Sleep Apnea

The aim of the study is to determine whether selenoprotein activity and blood renalase level correlate with subclinical hypertensive heart disease and obstructive sleep apnea. The correlation will be assessed using selected electrocardiographic, ultrasound and laboratory indicators.

Read the detailed description

The study will be conducted in the Department and Clinic of Internal Medicine, Occupational Diseases, Hypertension and Clinical Oncology at Borowska 213 street in Wroclaw. This decision follows the high percentage of people with obstructive sleep apnea and hypertension among those hospitalized in the Clinic and also the wide availability of research tools in the hospital.

150 more patients with hypertension and obstructive sleep apnea will be included in the planned observational study.

The study is observational, research procedures are non-invasive and no additional medical experiment is planned. The study was approved by the Bioethics Committee of the Wroclaw Medical University.

Patients enrolled in the study will be asked to share the results of their previously performed examinations or, in case they do not have any, new examinations will be performed to complement the diagnostic process of hypertension and obstructive sleep apnea.

The planned procedures include: medical interview, physical examination with basic anthropometric measurements (age, height, body weight); biochemical tests including blood selenium, selenoproteins, renalase and creatinine levels; total antioxidant status (TAS), 24-hour Holter electrocardiography, polysomnography, ultrasound assessment of peripheral vascular endothelial function and echocardiography.

Laboratory tests will be performed using commercially available standardized tests. The levels of selenoproteins, renalase and creatinine in the blood, as well as TAS will be determined by ELISA (Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) in accordance with the instructions. Blood selenium level will be measured by means of atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). 24-hour Holter ECG monitoring will be performed using a Lifecard CF recorder, followed by an analysis of the record by the Impresario Solo system (Delmar Reynolds, Hertford, UK). Ultrasound examination will be performed using the ProSound Alpha 6 (Aloka Inc, Tokyo, Japan).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertension and Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by Wroclaw Medical University at 1 site in Poland.

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 1 inclusion and 3 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 10 Sep 2021. 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 Poland. 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 Karolina Czerwińska, MD (+48 790 404 619, karolina.czerwinska@student.umed.wroc.pl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assesment of blood renalase level (time frame: One day). The study lists 5 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 10 Sep 2021.
